    Surprised to see SE and especially South VA going cowboys and not redskins. I understand there are a lot of transplants in norfolk and surrounding areas, but i didn't think they favored any single team.

    As someone who lives in Eastern NC, there should be a MUCH bigger Redskins presence. Hell, it was a Redskins television audience prior to the Panthers.

    Poor Jets. I think they have one little square in there.

    I also like how Florida is such a mishmash of North East teams.

    Hahaha, Moss thinks he's the greatest WR ever. And all those stats where Rice beats the shit of him, those don't matter because stats don't measure greatness.

    Yep, not stats. Just effort, and playing your hardest, and... Wait.

    Oh Randy... what is even the point in saying that? You are like the second best reciever of all time, why do you need to run around spouting on about being the greatest? What is in it for you?

    That being said, I still hope you get a superbowl championship this year...

    Looked for western-interior (and Oregon) college players on their roster to see if that explains anything. When some areas don't have a pro team, some fans default to college alumni.

    Febron Hangupo, DT, BYU
    Robert Golden, S, Arizona
    Brett Keisel, DR, BYU
    Keenan Lewis, CB, Oregon St.
    David Paulson, TE, Oregon
    Stevenson Sylvester, ILB, Utah

    ...well, that sure as hell ain't the reason.

    Brent Keisel is kinda popular, but then again, i see tons of Steelers fans in Salt Lake and Salt Lake HATES BYU

    and even then i wouldn't say it's enough to convince them otherwise, especially when you have more recent and very popular BYU players like Austin Collie on the Colts and Dennis Pitta on the Ravens, heck, there are still huge 49ers fans here just because of Steve Young

    even with Utah, Sylvester wasn't a huge player, but Krueger who plays for the Ravens was, so was Alex Smith. and shit going by that logic, northern utah should be HUGE Seahawks fans what with Wagner and Robert Turbin coming from Utah State

    not saying the idea is wrong, but for some reason it doesn't really apply here as much as we would think it would, and there is still a disproportionately high amount of Steelers fans here, i blame bandwagoning, after a couple superbowls 10 years ago, most people have held onto them for some reason.

    same reason theres a shit ton of yankees and red sox fans here

    Its not like all gays support the Niners cause of The Castro. Unless you're saying that by virtue of being the home team of the most liberal place in America (with a football team) everyone in the metro area is like "say wut"

    Yeah, being homophobic is not cool in San Francisco and the Bay Area in general. Or, rather, being openly homophobic is not cool. You get burned way too quickly making assumptions about people who are "different", because there's a not-insignificant chance that your boss is gay or has friends/family who are gay. Insert "gay" for pretty much anything and that's why people learn very quickly to keep those kinds of opinions to themselves in a public setting.

    Why do I picture him just getting more and more flushed and sweaty as he stutters out that denial of "doing the gay guys"

    That's just embarrassing for a player from the 49ers. You can't live in the city AT ALL without realizing that gay people are just like everyone else and should be accepted, unless you are insanely homophobic. There's no "Oh, I just don't have any experience with their way of life so I'm uncomfortable with it" out here. Make a statement like that, and you are actively being a bigot. He should be off the team.

    ...and that somehow the 49ers still win?

    To be fair immediately afterwards the Niners organization said that was not their policy and his belief is not their belief. Still an asshole thing to say way worse than any taunting by a guy like Sherman.
