lol @ the San Fran Whiners. Hey Aldon, maybe you should've got some pressure on Flacco. Douche

Wow. A team filled with Bradys

Crabtree was "held"...yes, held to no catches with the Super Bowl on the line... Bc

**trailhiker85** · 03-05-2013, 01:50 PM

I'm sure it's emotionally tough to lose a closely-fought Super Bowl, so some comments of this type are understandable.

Still, I'm starting to see why some of you have started calling them the Forty-Whiners. Which, come to think of it, would've been the perfect name back in the days of 40-man rosters.

I don't think that's surprising at all.

Florio has been square in the Ravens corner on this issue since the SB.

That was a dig at the whole "PFT is against the Ravens" conspiracy theory.

Yes, I know, I partially bought into it then.

They should be thankful the lights went out.

Hope the 9ers get over it, would hate to see it ruin there upcoming season, LOL, you know the referees do not forget the biggest whiners about blown calls. Aldon should be wondering why a top 10 defense couldn't stop a team that lost 5 games at the end of the regular season. Or how a non elite QB took them to the woodshed in the first half. Then drove down the field for 2 field goals to help secure the win.

**Hammerhead** · 03-05-2013, 02:27 PM

Everyone knows:

1. Torrey Smith was interfered with/held on that pass down the sideline in the second half
2. Pitta was mugged in the end zone on 3rd and 1
3. Flacco was hit illegally on that same play
4. Akers dove on that missed FG
5. Bernard Pollard was held on Gore's 33 yard run on that last drive
6. Crabtree committed OPI on 2nd down in that last series
7. Crabtree initiated contact on 4th down
8. That ball was uncathcable
9. The 49ers would have lost by 20 points if there was no blackout

Crabtree and Kaepernick did not whine after that 4th down play. They didn't beg for a flag. They got away with a lot that night and it never got called. They had four -- count 'em: four - chances to get into the end zone from no more than 7 yards away and they couldn't get any closer than the five.

This is the real downside of the Jim Harbaugh act. The team doesn't take responsibility for getting curb stomped for 32 minutes. It gives no credit to its adversaries. And it thinks every call against it is terrible and every call for it is great. Listen to FX again. Harbaugh is whining on almost every play.

Advocacy is creating your own spin; idiocy is believing it. They are veering towards idiocy now.

Wow, a lot more vintage wine coming from 49er whine country, form their sour grapes collection.

They sat next to each other during the combine.

Just like last year everyone in Baltimore knew Lee Evans made the catch! So many crocodile tears.
