Bob that was quite a come back yesterday. Now for a Harbaugh brother showdown
now known as the Har-bowl.
I'm going to have to watch just for the historical meaning of this superbowl. First ever brother vs brother.
Big niner fan here. Should be a good game, but the Ravens handed the niners their head on a plate last year.
Better luck this year, Jim.
Spud as much a I think I'm above it all at this point in my life, "that sport is but a silly game", yet I was fit to be tied,that was as torturous a game as I ever witnessed.
Why is that, why did I get so tied in? What is it about sports the pulls on our emotions yet in truth has little to do with our daily lives?
I no longer agonize over a loss yet when the game is tight I'm all in.
The good thing is being a cyclist gives me a way to work it off however a game unfolds.
Grew up in Atlanta and have followed the Falcons since the Bartkowski, Billy "White Shoes" days. Learned to hate the 49ers, who always seemed to win, and who were in the same Coastal Division. Dad sat my brother and me down after a disappointing loss one Sunday and told us not to rest our happiness on a Falcons game outcome --
When it was 17-0 yesterday, I said to myself, "Next team who scores will win." 49ers scored. Then they scored again. The disappointment crept in. I quite watching. More than 30 years have passed, and I still haven't learned my damn lesson.
Being a Red Sox fan my entire life, I don't have to tell you that I learned early on that in fact, it is only a game.
That was one of the best games all year yesterday. Lots of ups and downs, lead changes and great plays.
Congrats, bob! Hoping for a 'Niners win (mostly 'cuz I'm sick of hearing about the murdering thug, Ray Lewis).
Like CK!

Atlanta ran out of lives last week in the last 30 seconds. Flubbed the kickoff. Let them score, got back to field goal range. Kicked and MISSED WITH 2 SECONDS TO GO. But got a DO_OVER!?!?! And made it. That was it. All their lives used up. Season over. They were doomed to be a ghost team yesterday.
