My daughter is wearing my Super Bowl XXIII t-shirt from the Aptos Club. Epic T-shirt.
Well, hell. The game WILL actually happen. In what seems like the college bowl game six week layoff, the Niners and Ravens will finally strap on their gear and start smacking heads. The reporters have all put their pens and papers away, the players and coaches are safely tucked into their beds, the ridiculous, stupid, and overblown comments have all floated away into the ether, and somewhere Kenny Stabler is drinking and laughing in a corner bar.
I’m fairly confident the Niners will wear these guys down in the end and win going away. And I won’t have to worry about whether Ray Lewis will do his Elaine Benes dance, where Chris Culliver will get his sensitivity training, or where Alex Smith will end up. If only for the duration of the game.

Have they shown the Budweiser Clydesdales commercial? I’m still crying…
HAHAHAHAHA!
That’s the way to start the second half.
And special teams join the party!!!!!!
11 Seconds 109 yards Ballgame!!
Bye, bye Niners.
Inspiring football!!
They shoot horses don’t they? Shoot the entire 49er squad.
I’m fucking embarrassed right now to call myself a 49er fan.
Fuck me and the horse I rode in on…
You shouldn’t be embarrassed to call yourself a fan unless you’re a bandwagon variety. The 49ers should be embarrassed by their efforts today, fucking up a perfect legacy here. Fans are just fans, and this is still just a game.
Until the Niners score 2 TD’s they need to stay away from the run
They’ve tried the pass.
The niners need to calm the fuck down, get their shit together and play their game or this baby is over.
I’m good with the latter outcome, myself.
BOO!
FIX THE FUCKING LIGHTS!
What a disaster. What next, a hurricane?
Another fucking power outage?
Too bad we did not get that back around 3:40 our time.
Beyonce show used up all the power. No more running plays please.
As Dandy Don use to say “Turn out the Lights” the game is over!
Freakin SB of all things and have a power outtage.Kind of like the 49ers offense.
No real fan would bail now. Hell, I think even a few raider fans hung around the last time they appeared in the SBowl. And the 9ers have a much better chance of coming back.
Kaepernick hasn’t been up to the task. The Ravens have had the luxury of taking chances. The road back to dynasty is tough. Some teams (e.g., the Raiders) never get close. The 9ers are close, again. Don’t quit on them now.
Maybe the power outage here will revive the 9ers. Remind them of Candlestick.
Wait until next season! OUCH!
How in the fuck can they be running trap plays down 28-6? Dumb fuck Roman!
The HORROR…..the HORROR……..
Where’s PUPPY BOWL?
If anything, this helps the niners regain their poise and composure.
I hope both teams keep a high level of focus and don’t have negative effects from this shit.
Ya, Nawl’ins was ready for the SB, yepper…
Lets get drunk with Dennis in the stables.
This game is not over. The power outage gives the 49er coaching staff the ability to adjust after the kickoff return. We cannot run the ball anymore. We need to go hurry up, and we need to go spread. We need to forget the two calls at the line. We need the ball to be placed down by the official and for Kaep to snap it immediately. Forget the reads at the line. Quick routes, quick throws.
Spread. Spread. Spread. Let’s not run the ball anymore unless it’s a draw and we know it’ll pickup 20 plus yards. If the 49ers try to run the ball and be patient, like they are good at, the 49ers will lose. They cannot be patient anymore. They have to go hurry up.
Head for the hills!
Everyone needed a break from this steaming shit pile
Shiiiiiit!
Even after this outage is over, we are still facing third and 13. It’s going to be gut check time, right away.
This is a fucking goddamn disgrace on the NFL. Fuck Roger Goodell and his player safety BS. The lights went out? That’s what happens when you try to outlaw defenses trying to turn out the lights on the offense. The NFL is now one big VAGINA. No more hard hits.
And fuck President Obama and his pussy comments. You’re afraid your son might get hurt in football? That reassures me and the rest of the nation about your feelings when it comes to N. Korea.
Fuck you, you goddamn motherless son of a fuck pussy.
We’re America! We hit people!!!
Settle down Beavis.
Dude, where did that come from?
Eat those steaks
Red meat and booze creates Dennis!
When you make fun of vaginas, girls don’t want to play on this board :<
I got your back, even though I’m just an interloper…and a friend:)
I know you see this, so an apology or some words of contrition for the BS, please?
Bad form, not once, but twice Dennis.
Tsk, tsk
It wasn’t until this game that Kaep was really shown to be a rookie. It’s not really his fault, he’s just being game planned by a talented and veteran team and he doesn’t have enough experience to adjust to things he hasn’t seen. In a couple of years, this kind of thing probably won’t happen. It’s the risk Harbaugh took, and it took until now for it to blow up in his face, but it has big time. The D hasn’t been any better.
If the 49ers don’t do something big to address their deficiencies at CB, I won’t know what to make of it. They have huge holes there. Culliver should be nothing more than a special teams player, if that. They have to get some talent at that position.
Smith going to do a “Lincecum?”
Does Roman have a no-huddle offense book he can dust off?
What a Slap in the face to the NFL…Inexcusable to have a power outage in the SB.
Did anyone have that on a prop bet?
Entergy linemen…
Power outage for the Niners offense.
If they don’t get the lights back on, the game hasn’t gone 5 full innings yet, so it’s not official.. They can play a double header in June..
Lets bring on Spring Training!
Yay!
We would have had power,but Culliver jizzed his load on the transformer.
“Speechless.” I’m without speech.”
But not without drink!
You’re obsessed with that bro.
Really.
O/U on Denny having Culliver fucked doggy style was 1 hour 25.5 minutes, BTW..
Ya, I’m laughing
Thx
lol
This interruption is a HUGE black-eye on the NFL.
Congratulations, Roger. You finally got some color to your Rooney Rule.
Do we even have a no-huddle offense when it’s not < 2:00 mins to go?
Hurry up!
Fuck you, Crabtree. That ball was on the money.
Check your 5:52 Dennis…
And now we have to burn a TO. Once again? WE DON’T DESERVE to win this shit.
Why does this look like play calling for when your up 22 points!!! Hurry the fuck up!!!!!!! And a timeout?!!! Unbelievable!
Lots of talk about DBs and the QB, But. We’re losing this game on the lines. The Ravens are outplaying out OL and DL.
We’re losing this game on the lines, but those are normally the team’s strengths.
Finally. One step at a time…
Crabs breaking tackles for that TD!!!
Real nice drive.D’stime to step up!!
Sonofabitch if we didn’t score a touchdown…
Niners have more yards from scrimmage than Ravens. Turnover and kick return are the difference
Ya, that break didn’t help the niners at all…
I’ve been yelling so much that you know who is still sleeping under my bed.
Sorry, Frank. Say hello to Brooks. And say hello to Ginn.
Here we come walking down the street. We get the funniest looks from everyone we meet. Hey, hey, we’re the Monkees
Oh yeahhhh!!!!!!!!!! We got A game!!!!!!!
I mention Frank, and what happens? Heeeeeeeee!
Eddie D is still influencing the 49ers and pro football.
He had some broken nosed cousin flip a breaker at the routing center and changed the flow of this game…
What a block by Walker, just blew up Ed Reed! The energy that was absent all game long there now!
Ngata hurt and doubtful for the rest of the game.
How about this turnaround!!!
Fucking 49ers!!!!!!!!! Coming back strong!!!!
Still a lot of football to go. Either we’re all going to be disappointed, or this will go down as the greatest 49er comeback ever.
Yep. We got something worth watching now. Niners over their ‘nerves’ now. D playing well too
Rope a dope Niners got Balt right where they want ’em
There was my Budweiser Clysdesdales commercial. I still have a lump in my throat.
A man and his horse. It’s a beautiful thing.
That’s a FUMBLE!!!!!!!!
FUMBLE!!! Fuck these birds
Please win 49ers. I didn’t eat all this good luck food and become a glutton for the hell of it.
Why is Ginn even in there? Fucking Akers caught a huge break
Akers got a second chance there.
This game may very well come down to the last possession – if so, either of these QBs is capable of winning it.
Bad calls on the series after the fumble. They shoulda been going for the 1st instead of throwing to Ginn
Donte Whitner has been one step too late all season.
And D is going right back to playing like shit!
Can we break up one fucking pass in the red zone
Flacco got hit pretty hard…
Now it’s a war of one big play or one big mistake.
C’mon D!!!
Fucking Culliver, you piece of shit!
Culliver is just killing the 49ers.
Man, Culliver has had the most fucked week ever.
Laughingly fucked.
Need to get a stop soon.
If the Ravens get a TD here, it might be over. The defense has to stop them to give Kaepernick a real chance.
No pass rush=loss. Flacco finding everyone
Fuck! Can we break up a pass!!
We did, finally.
Ravens left too much time on the clock
*IF* we score, we need to make sure we don’t do the same – Flacco has made some miracle throws this year.
Well, it won’t be up to Akers now.
4 minutes and change. One drive for your starting QB with 10 games experience. Score a TD and win the Super Bowl, or don’t and you lose.
No pressure, Colin.
They’re probably happpier needing the TD to win,
Holly crap, this has turned into a damn barn burner. Wow.
Terrible play calling down there. Piss poor.
First and goal from the 4, 5?
And the streak is over…
Fuck these Refs.They been.on the take the whole fucking game.Totally holding on Crabs in thr endzone. BS
Yeah.
All those dropped passes earlier in the game wouldn’t have made any difference so it’s just the ref’s fault.
No.
Niners got outplayed when they needed to put the ball in the endzone.
Period.
If only LA had their own NFL franchise. You could go pollute their blog.
I’m a Ram and a Ray-Duh fan.
I’ve been pretty even handed in what I’ve said and in my game observations.
You really have to get over your issues, this is the internet, not Ulloa and West Portal…
Phil Simms can barely contain his stupidity. You don’t make that call in that (big) situation? When the fuck do you make it, Phil?
Hmmm, he also said that both guys were guilty. If Crabtree gets called for it, are you still going to be happy that the ref threw the flag?
The point is, Dogear fan, is that he changed his mind after watching more replays. Crabtree was mugged. If you can’t see that, and admit it, you’re an idiot!
Well, I have people here and we’re drinking and such-
SO
IF I missed Simms change his assessment, so be it. They were both mugged in the replay I saw.
Idiot? Really? Enjoy the fact that it was a damn good game instead of the blowout it should have been. No need to demean yourself by others calling names.
Lemme guess. Sanfrandodgerfan!
It’s easy to say it was a damn good game when you have no dog in the fight, which you clearly do not. It was a damn good game and a damn good comeback. But when you’re team come up 6 yards short it stings. Maybe when LA gets another NFL team (not!), you’ll understand.
It sounds like it really sucks to be you, JB.
Try to have a better evening, eh?
Roman fucked up on that last series. Cost them the Superbowl.
Absolutely.
Truly bizarre game
Shit.at least we made it interesting
Yeah SHIT!
One hell of a valiant effort by Kap and the offense. Great game..
Great game. Intense. Anything seemed possible.
This is the Super Bowl. You can’t play a messy first half and hope to come back in the second half. For whatever was not called, the 49ers and their turnovers and porous pass rush was at fault. Bring on baseball!
Yes!
1st and goal and we need one fucking play to get 6 yards with the Superbowl on the line. And they throw 2 nearly impossible balls for Crabtree to catch. You have all those pistol option plays where Kap can run. It’s incredible. Unbelievable
Believe it.
This idea that penalties shouldn’t be called because the situation is too big for the refs to “interfere” is utterly retarded.
Good effort from the Niners but the Ravens had the edge today and it showed
Fuck we would have been better off with the “SCAB REFS”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great comeback by Kaep and the offense. If they had come out like that to start the game, they would’ve won. And anyone who still claims that Kaepernick is a “running QB” is a fucking idiot. He is going to be known as a great passer when all is said and done.
Flacco has convinced me. He’s the real deal.
Jim Harbaugh needs to learn one thing – you don’t blame the refs. In big games, at the end, the refs don’t throw flags. Don’t cry. Be a man. You look like a fool on the sidelines. Last year Jim was crying about the Bradshaw non-fumble. This year I’m sure he’ll cry about the non-holding call. But in big games, refs don’t throw flags. Period. Jim needs to learn that, and design plays around it. The 49ers needs a big, physical receiver for that exact situation.
A Lot of really stupid mistakes by the Niners cost them this game. The secondary had a particularly hideous game.
Dennis get off the floor!
The refs didn’t call PI on Bowman in the Atl game for same reason.
That was a chuck within the 5 yard cushion. Crab was 2 yards into the end zone.
Jimbo goes postal after every call that goes against them. The non-call on the hold was kosher, Crabs was trying to get seperation pushing with his left hand. Poor play calling at the end, some wasted timouts, Culliver, lots of things ended up beating them. The QB’s were both great, 22 is just a big hole.
That cannot be good for his health.
Good synopsis. The points were huge but they made it up. Fun game to watch.
If you’re a 49er fan and you blame the refs, you’re a bitch.
Yep – but by that same logic, the flag on Culliver was a pussy penalty on the Ravens’ last FG drive.
If you’re gonna let ’em play, it’s just like the Seattle game – *admit* you are going to, and call it even for both teams. I’d let them knife fight for it out there, as long as both guys are holding.
And they didn’t call a hold on Culliver earlier in the game. The refs didn’t decide this. It was an exciting game, we lost.
Spitblood
Too much bullshit from you. Go F yourself assbite.
We definitely need better secondary play. We need a big physical receiver – a Moss who isn’t a pussy. We need to replace Akers. We need to strengthen the D-line.
The secondary will be a major address in the draft,book it!!!
There’s also a huge issue with preparation – too many times in big games, we came out flat and had to play catch up. That lies at the feet of the coaches.
100% correct
