I became a die-hard, gold-blooded Niner Faithful and never looked back.

I cried when the Niners lost to the Giants in the 1990 NFC Championship game – damn Matt Bahr field goal!

[Podcast EP #39] The Quarterbacks, the Coach, and the Chaos that is the 49ers
Hello 49er fans! I hope everyone had a nice bye week and took some time to get recharged for the next nine weeks. I especially hope that’s true of the players. The 1-6 San Francisco 49ers are a mess from top to bottom, and with nine games left to play, they have nowhere to go but up...in theory. On this week’s Talking Touchdowns podcast, Bay Area News Group and 49ers’ beat writer Cam Inman (http://www.twitter.com/CamInman) joins me (http://www.twitter.com/49ersFangirl) and Steph (http://www.twitter.com/SoCaliSteph)to talk all things Niners, including: • The most recent installment of 49ers’ drama - this time with the city of Santa Clara • The inability of the Niners to perform past the first quarter • Colin Kaepernick • Whether or not our guys in the red and gold can win another game this year • How we see the Trent Baalke situation ending up • Chip Kelly and the coaches • And Sunday’s game against Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints.
