49ers Blog
athleticsfan4ever and I are starting up a blog dedicated to the San Francisco 49ers. It is called The Catch.
Currently it is located on Blogger. We hope to draw enough support to eventually start an SB Nation site for the 49ers. If you get a chance, please stop by and check things out, make a post or two. Share your "Niners moment" with us, as athleticsfan4ever has. Our goal is to develop the same strong community that we have here on AN.
Check it out at:

Agreed!
I know we have our field sharing issues. Sharing the Coliseum screws up both teams.
But yes, The Bay Area's REAL football season starts tonight!!!

I think a Niner fan just Threw Up in Thier Mouth:
Why don't you all just come out and admit that you are fans of Championships, not teams!!!
;) Wow it must be football season or something.
I actually pull for the Niners now that Steve Young is gone, but I bleed Silver and Black and Green and Gold!!!

Is Al Davis in it?

I never understand all of you A's fans
Oakland = A's, Raiders, Warriors.
SF = 49ers, Gnats. Get it?
I'm not saying I love the Raiders or Warriors like I do the A's, but I do root for them over other teams.

Born in 1977 in San Leandro
Raiders = Hell A
Niners = Bay Area
Super Bowl champs and classy teams didn't hurt.
Niners and A's for life. Best combo of any sports fan in the Bay Area, if I do say so myself. Which I do.

Let's See...
Then the Raiders came back and promptly destroyed my second home, causing a bit of bitterness toward the Silver and Black, reinforcing my 9'ers loyalty.
THAT is how you explain the "A's/ 9'ers Fan" phenomenon. Get it?

Exactly...
I also hated what Al Davis did to Oakland when he left for LA, and for what he did to the Coliseum when he came back.

Redwood City native
49ers former HQ was adjacent to a park & community center down the street from my elementary school. I used to watch them practice (late 70's, before Super Bowls, before the practice fields were blocked from casual view), and we'd see the players around town all the time. Football was the first sport I loved, I had no use for baseball when I was a kid.
As an adult, I started falling in love with baseball when my son started playing Little League. I wanted to root for one of the local (BAY AREA) teams, and I picked the one that was losing (like the Niners were when I first fell in love with them). That was the A's.
I didn't realize there was an actual wall built down the middle of the Bay along the Alameda/San Mateo County line.

My story
I'm a Colts fan now also, starting with the mid 90's with Jim Harbaugh and continuing now. No matter what though, I'm still a Niners fan good or bad. I stuck with the A's through the dark mid 90's, and I'm riding out the Niners struggles now.
Probably doesn't figure into your idea of someone who is a fan of both the A's and Niners, but that's the way it is.

Born in 1981
As a Niner fan I must say that I am feeling as though I'm feeling a lot like a Raider fan recently as both fan groups are prone to bouts of living too much in the past (we USED to be great... not so much any more, but remember when...).
No disrespect intended (considering the vitriol some on this site have for the southern portion of our state), but FOR ME the Raiders haven't lived down being an LA team and I don't root for LA teams.

nothing personal, but that's a rather ignorant statement.

Also, I always liked the forum format infinitely better than the diary format used at SB sites. It's alot more organized for one thing.
by znk916 on Sep 11, 2006 4:08 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Never really liked forums
The thing SB Nation sites also have though is the (somewhat) daily commentary by the main blogger(s). I can't say I find the commentary on 49erswebzone to be all that interesting.

I'm scared...
I wish he would be allowed to buy the team back. If he were still around, we'd already have a new stadium, Donohoe wouldn't have been allowed to ruin the team, there would be free wine and beer for all 49ers fans in the bay area and we would finally have peace in the Middle East.
Did I mention that I missed Eddie D?

Donahoe decimated the team.

I was so excited for that...
Apparently Larry Ellison wanted to buy too, but he was rebuffed. That would've been awesome too, but for very different reasons. That guy is batshit crazy. I would've loved seeing what he did as owner of the team.
