To get crushed in the SB... sure, heaven on earth. But I like the game of football. I want to enjoy the SB... even if the Rams are not in it. If the Niners are in it?
I'm going to be a basket case wanting them to lose. Not a chance in hell I'll 'rise above it all' and sit back to enjoy a good game of football.
It would be a day of anxiety and anguish thru the roof and the only moment of joy would be when the final gun sounds and the Niners are behind on the scoreboard. That's NOT my idea of a pleasant day.
I've already lost my hope of the Niners not making the playoffs.. next best thing is a first round loss. I don't CARE if they present the best opportunity for a close SB... I want them home watching on TV. I want pain and torment and the gnashing of teeth from the local radio shows about how they blew it again.
Any poets on the board? Not sure my "pain, torment, and gnashing" quite does justice to how badly I want the Niners eliminated. - JamesJM
