In 1849 gold was discovered on John Sutter's ranch in California. Settlers flocked west in hopes of finding a fortune in gold, causing the gold rush of 1849. The people who went were called 49ers.

Ahh... I see. Thanks for the info, Shaw. :)

[outsyder]

Uh . . . . .


49ers.

[TheDeadWalk]

The 49ers for their Joe Montana/Jerry Rice/Super Bowl Legacy. For a moment in history, they unsettled the Cowboys and became America's team. Montana had charisma, and Rice was the type of guy you wanted to have over for dinner. Add in Roger Craig, Tom Rathman, and a slew of others for a helluva ride in the 80's.

As for the bears... The best thing you've got is Ditka and a groovy SNL skit, and of course "Sweetness". But a great Running Back and fun times with "Norm" isn't going to make me vote for them.

Jim McMahon and those fucked up cheesy sunglasses, The Fridge and his cheesy song entitled to him... and who could forget that horrible... HORRIBLE music video called "The Superbowl Shuffle". God that was terrible. The 85 Bears were a team not to mess with, but the stuff they did then gets them remembered today as a joke.

We ain't here, to start no trouble... We're just here to do the superbowl shuffle!

[TheAxeGrinder]

The 49ers, if only for Joe Montana.

[Raw Chili]

The Bears mainly due to The Dead Walk's final paragraph in his post.
