Someone really needs to subpoena the bank records of the crew that 'worked' the Niner game. Just another reason to not watch the NFL. Seattle was given that game at every turn. Simply atrocious. The NFL should be completely ashamed.

I'm sorry, but Richard Sherman's post game interview was the funniest thing I've ever seen!

Yes, it wasn't right, but at this point, the game on the field isn't even worth watching anymore. The refs are clearly biased in there decisions and the rules are favored toward the offense. But, when you're bored for an entire game and you go to turn off the TV and watch him say that, it's pretty entertaining. It only fuels the Niners-Seahawks rivalry for years to come and should make their first meeting next season very interesting.
Professional Sports are become less and less fun to watch and track. I mean look at the NBA, it's the Heat against either the Spurs or Lakers, there is no drama or real upsets anymore. March Madness and the NCAA is where it is at, yeah players will leave after a year, but it's a much better game then the NBA. The NHL has too many labor issues and is only good for the playoffs. The NFL has become too cautious at this point and is really taking the game out of the players hands.
A couple years ago, I heard talk of the all major sports leagues disbanding by 2020, and thought they were insane. But, now I see what everyone was talking about...

This was one of the most anticipated games to watch myself. Unfortunately, I missed most of it on TV. I only caught the 3rd quarter and early 4th.
I feel really bad for Bowman. He made a heck of a play. Officiating or not, the 49ers had their opportunities but failed to capitalize. 3 turnovers in the 4th quarter and giving up that 4th down touchdown were inexcusable. 3 years in a row of heartbreak. I feel bad for the veterans (Cowboy, Gore, and Willis).
