Here's mine from Sept. 3




Yet I'm picking Baltimore now to win 27-24.

And we were picking an Alex Smith led 49er team.

That's right.

As much as I dislike Harbaugh's antics, I have to give him credit for having the guts to go to Kaepernick.

Great article on Bill Walsh, a HS Coach, and one of the books Bill Walsh wroteBill Walsh.

Ravens 21-17

Niners, 2-0. Safety on the opening drive, then a defensive battle thereafter.

Ravens 21-17

That must be tough to post coming from a Steelers fan.

Damned skippy it is. And really, you have no idea.

Not only do I hate them because they are the real Browns...


but they are my soon-to-be ex-wife's team as well.


But if the ravens do win, it closes the gap between the AFC and NFC Superbowl wins.



I can find a silver lining in any cloud...it's a gift.

 

[SixMillionDollarMan Guy]

That's a cheerful way to look at it.

I'll take the ravens

I think the 49ers have the higher upside of the two teams (meaning if they dont shoot themselves in the foot and play near their top level, they are the better team IMO). But lately the 49ers D-line hasnt been so dominant and they have been letting teams score more. Tough game to call. Conversely, I'm not so sure if the Ravens can stop the 49ers rushing attack/Kaepernick's arm.

They shut down Brady's arm, I'll take the ravens.

Defensive Coordinator news from last night, Spags is out in New Orleans and Rob Ryan is in at St. Louis.

I loved the in jokes, about how it's easy to make jokes a year later, and how they think they are going on for too long.

Cliched as hell by this point, but I still get a "holy ****" vibe from this:

Seemed to be a theme there LOL

 

[SixMillionDollarMan Guy]

Sorry Six

Ugh! Tarkenton about to get crushed.

Not shocked they had photos from all four of the Vikes losses.

I'm surprised they didn't have one from that loss to the Raiders. One of the hardest hits I've ever seen.

At 45 seconds....

Has Ray Lewis always colored in his hair line? I couldn't stop laughing at his interview on NFL network last night. It looked ridiculous in HD.

Edit: Just did a search. This got got some screen grabs.
