Today I watched the 2011 Divisional Playoff game between the San Francisco 49ers and New Orleans Saints played at The Stick on January 14, 2012. What a wild finish! The entire game is available to watch on youtube but the NFL won't let me post the link here. I liked Candlestick and wish the 49ers still played there. Santa Clara is not San Francisco. It's like a team playing in San Diego and calling themselves Los Angeles...or vice versa. The stadium has a great history, but a shit location. I liked it open like this in the early days.

I remember watching that game with my youngest daughter who was a huge Saints fan, what a game, Brees did everything he could do but one thing he couldn't do all those years setting passing records was play defense!

Bong-Man Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 (edited) ^ ^ Dad always called it 'Briggs Stadium'. One thing about that place, it smelled like a ballpark. I remember sitting in the lower grandstand as a kid and looking up at the ancient light fixtures from the 20's hanging from the bottom of the upper deck from wood slats. Piss troughs with ice too. Never saw a football game there. Edited January 14, 2023 by Bong-Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 I had to watch both games tonight on tivo. First the 49ers thumping the Seahawks. No surprise there. Then, I laughed my ass off watching San Diego do their typical pratfall, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. But NBC's broadcast of the Chargers@Jax game was execrable. Al and Tony were duds, the audio was weird, and the whole broadcast felt off. What was Al even doing there? I thought he left to join Amazon with Kirk Herbstreit and Mike Tirico and Chris Collinsworth were the NBC crew? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
custard pie man Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Michaels is ready for a nap, came out of a break and saw jags receiver catch a long pass only on replay did we see the play, inexcusable, anyways great comeback and couple of thoughts, Bosa is an idiot, cost them the game on few blunders, Petersen has huge balls going for the 2 pt. conversion, they miss game probably over and last point now theres hope for cowboys, Dak usually only has 2-3 brutal turnovers so maybe theres a chance in Tampa 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do my own play by play in my mind before he even tells me what's happening. If he's telling a story, he misses an entire play. I'm amazed at the poor audio quality of all these football broadcasts. The only channel that gives me normal audio is ESPN. Everyone else sounds like I'm listening underwater. My audio is usually set at 16-17. For NFL broadcasts it's up to 30, and it still sounds muffled. Then a commercial comes on and blasts me out of my chair with normal audio.

Interesting that they pulled Michaels back for the game last night. It really was an awful broadcast. Fun game - awful broadcast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) Al and Tony were babbling so much they nearly missed calling the Jags game-winning field goal. Inexcusable. Al Michaels needs to retire more than Tom Brady. Meanwhile...how 'bout this Bills-Dolphins game? Someone give Rick smelling salts!

Strider Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Miami being unable to get their play calls in before the game clock is ridiculous. How inept can you be? Now they're out of time outs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel for Dallas' kicker. He's lucky it wasn't a close game. Lol, imagine if he had to make a game winning kick of 40yards. Last time I saw that much kicking ineptitude was in High School. The NFL actually supports a winning playoff team getting only 5 days rest? How absurd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LedZeppfan1977 Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Brady has to, or should know its over. Grab that FOX 🦊 job . Would love to see your opinions of upcoming games Bonger? No excuses for McDermott, get it done or your done! Imagine if Dallas lost by 3 ! If anyone can know how their kicker feels its Scott Norwood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
