Yess! Niners win! Niners win! Hey folks, I'm here again, as promised--with no voice to speak of, as promised. The very loud guy wasn't at the game yesterday (the one sitting to the right of myself) so it ended up being my brother and I to do our best to lead most of the chants in our area. Be the end of the first half, my voice was going. Somebody told me on here we'd win if I couldn't speak anymore, and I literally can't. No seriously, call me, I won't answer--because I'll have no point to. As for my thoughts on the game, well... I don't even think Singletary's "It was beautiful for us" could be said here, you know? It was ugly for everyone fan, player and coach alike. But a win is a win is a win is a win, and knowing that I'll rest just a little bit easier when the 49ers play the Green Bay Packers. Until then, here's hoping for a good solid week and a half of lots of links--enjoy today's.
