In My Humble: 2014 NBA All-Star Game Reserves

In My Humble: Super Bowl XLVIII Preview

Footballdum

If I may, let me preface this post by stating that I'm a huge San Francisco 49ers fan.  

I've been a 49ers fan since the days of Joe Montana and Jerry Rice. Who wouldn't love to see Hall Of Fame safety Ronnie Lott "decapitate" an opposing wide reciever coming across the middle of the field?  I've had the privilege of seeing my favorite pro football team win multiple Super Bowls. The 49ers don't win the Super Bowl every year, but I root for them as if they do.

From 2002 to 2011 the 49ers failed to qualify for postseason play.  I had to endure nine seasons of football futility; and let me tell you, it pretty much sucked.  Even though my favorite team was absent, I still watched the NFL playoffs. You see, I suffer from a disease known as footballdum. I simply have to watch football. It doesn't matter if my favorite team isn't playing, I'll still watch. My footballdum gave me the opportunity to see this guy play while he was still in college; at the University of Nevada Reno. 

As I type this, we're smack dab in the middle of this season's playoffs. Four teams remain:  The Denver Broncos, The New England Patriots, The Seattle Seahawks, and my San Francisco 49ers.  There are 28 other teams in the National Football League; and those teams season's have concluded.  Fans suffering from footballdum are in a critical stage.  If your team is still playing, then I salute you. If your team is "gone fishing," then your undoubtably upset.  My suggestion would be to get to know the actor Christopher Lambert.  The playoffs are much like his sci-fi movie's Highlander; in the end, there can be only ONE!
