Not that I like controversy, but I thought it was weird and ironic that in two seasons, two 49ers games were blacked out. of course, in the Monday night game last season, they came out as winners, but in the Superbowl they were close to winning. Coincidence? You make the call on the black out bowl. Still was a great game. Superbowls lately have been very entertaining to watch. Can't wait for next season. Congrats to both the 49ers and The Ravens!!!
Don't be ridiculous! At that point in the game SF was not only
not close to winning, they were so far behind that they could see Oakland. The game had just started after that execrable halftime show, the Crows were far in the lead and the momentum was with them. If the blackout served anybody it was the 69ers who came out of hibernation when the lights came back on and started playing football. The Crows had lost their momentum and allowed SF to put some points on the board.
I'll grant you that it is odd that two SF games should have power failures. But while being weird it is in no way ironic as the actual and the implied meanings of the situations were precisely the same.
At any rate, we now know the answer to Jim Harbaugh's very tiring question: "Who's got it better than we do?" . . . the Ravens!
