That was a close game. Yes, I mean the 49ers - Saints Game on Monday Night football, of course. An amazing drive by Alex Smith just when I'd given up all hope on him, capped by a tenuous but legit (goal line cameras and booth reviews can't be wrong, right?) 2-point conversion to tie it all up, before the 'Aints ended it with a (mostly) blocked field goal that bounced back in? Wut...
Still processing everything. Our defense was AMAZING. Our offense was AMAZING. Just not all at once, and that, dear friends, is how you lose a football game. And what was up with that snap/safety on the first drive? ehhhhh, sigh :/
Just because I was feeling peckish and had some time to kill (work tomorrow, eh), I went around www.sbnation.com to see what people were saying.
Cardinals Fans: Can disregard their random comment stream of consciousness as absolute trash. It's not even worthwhile to summarize...all I can say is they're pretty deluded for a fan-base pinning their hopes and dreams on Derek Anderson.
Seahawks Fans: Wow, this team's unveiling some hate on the 9ers in a surprising way considering how badly they beat us last week and how I always thought we had more of a friendly rivalry with them than anything. I guess suppressing a massive inferiority complex and their jealousy over the media attention the 49ers got this summer is finally rearing it's ugly head. Rowr!
Rams Fans: They're in awe of the 9ers! And Alex Smith! It's so cute. Don't worry Rams fans, in a coupla years Bradford's gonna be pretty amazing too. I want to ruffle their collective heads and give them an "aw shucks" grin.
Falcons Fans: Got a bit more respect from them, mostly due to their hate of the Saints though. Highlights from the comments section, "Smith is a white Michael Vick".
Colts Fans:Seemed to harbor some animosity towards the Saints...Comment Highlights, "[49ers] left too much time. Peyton could set up 10 FG's with 1:19 left on the clock and 2 TO's"..."Just goes to show Brees relies heavily on FG's for someone considered a star QB, like others *cough brady cough*"
Cowboys Fans: Incoherent, inane ramblings..
League-wide consensus-es:
Patrick Willis is a BEAST
Alex Smith is wonderful/aweful
GOOOOREEEE!!!
