5pm Pacific Standard Time

Any S.F. fans have plans tonight?

I know that not all Niner fans are S.F. Giant fans, but the harmonious connection via Sergio Romo, Alex Smith, Bruce Bochy, and Jim Harbaugh, among others, has to get some of you crossing over a bit. There has been nothing but love flowing from one locker room, or dugout, to the other. Us fans that do follow both San Francisco team's have gotten a kick out of the public alliance. The Giants made an epic come back in the NLDS and the 49ers had over a thousand yards of offense in blowing out the Jets and Bills by a combined score of 79-3! We were flying HIGH!

Then Sunday Oct. 14th happened.

Cardinals 6  S.F. Giants 4  (Game 1 of the NLCS)

N.Y. Giants 26   49ers 3   (rematch of the NFC Championship)

And here's were I have to apologize. I screwed it all up. I wore my Giants hat with my Willis Jersey during the Niners game because I left my Niners hat back in L.A. (jinx #1). Speaking of which, I went to the Bay Area and that's where I watched the game (jinx#2). I forgot my son's Niners and Giants hat, so he wasn't representing either team (jinx #3). I had to listen to the Giants game on the radio as we drove back on the 5 to L.A. (jinx #4). Joe Buck (jinx #5).

Moral; I'm taking blame for what I did Sunday Oct. 14th, and I apologize. I am Sorry. Now all you other fans need to remember what it was you did that screwed our teams up so royally that day and don't do it TODAY! Because obviously it's not the players, it's US!!

All kidding aside this is a huge night for S.F. sports. The Giants are down 2-1 in the NLCS and could either tie it up 2-2 and force the series back to S.F, or they could fall to 3-1 and have to pray to the baseball Gods again. Plus some guy named Lincecum is getting his first start tonight in the post-season. Then you have the Niners playing their division rival Seattle Seahawks. Is everyone familiar with the Harbaugh no likey Carrol, no likey Harbaugh? Yeah? Good, I don't want to explain it. Just google "What's your deal?" if you don't know. Niners just got romped on Sunday and really need a strong showing to prove that they're not losing their edge. It's a long season and Super Bowl's aren't won in October (but baseball play-off series ARE S.F. Giants!) but showing a stretch of weakness against 2 NFC foes would be bad right now.

So rest assure 49ers and S.F. Giants fans, I'm back in L.A., I'm not mixing sports teams gear and I will have my remote set to toggle between Fox and NFL Network at 5pm tonight.

Anyone else amped up today?
