49ers - Brock Purdy - Still and Always #1
- Thread starter ceeboe
- Start date
Well, I see I'm not alone in feeling more of a pull for Brock Purdy than I do for my favorite NFL team ha! As many of you have said, its a little bit easier to do when I don't think my team has a real chance of winning it all. It's been great to see how much continued support he has been getting from ISU fans. Hope the 49ers can make a special run.
My wife and I had this conversation last week. We're Chiefs fans so they wouldn't meet until the super bowl. I said I want the Chiefs to win a 45-42 game where Purdy is absolutely unbelievable.
I am a Dallas fan and I have a feeling we are going to end up facing BCB in the playoffs and I am not going to be able to handle it.
Same boat. Dallas fan since childhood. My head will root for the boyz. But my heart will pull for Purdy.
That's how I feel too. I want the Chiefs to win an absolute shootout with an old Arena Football League score where both teams score like 70 points.
At my age (41) it was nearly impossible to NOT be a 49ers fan growing up. Rice, Montana, Roger Craig, Ronnie Lott, Jon Taylor, Steve Young.... ect.
Once I grew up I fell in line with family ties and became a Packer fan and still am. Purdy has been sort of a return to my younger years and has been fun. I'd rather see packers win, but 49ers are a close second this year.

It’s amazing how many bandwagon fans there are. “As a kid I was a fan of all the teams that won every week”. The loyalty is impressive.
I'm right there with you. I'm 40, I think I still have a 49ers hat packed away in a box somewhere.
Blecch! I have familial ties to Novacek and I still rooted for the 49ers over the Boyz and the G-Men in the 80's/early90's.
Hey now!! We obviously stuck with the cyclones through the 80's and early 90's.
43 here. My older brother became a Dolphins fan in 1984 because of Marino, so I became a niners fan to root against him in the Super Bowl (as I've been told -- I was too young to remember). He's remained a Dolphins fan, while for the past 20 years or so I started mainly just following teams with ISU players. I'm back to being a huge 49ers fan for the past 5 weeks or so.
45 here and frankly it seemed like all that was on was the 49ers, Giants, and Cowboys and the NFC dominated the 80's/early 90's. I had a Rice jersey and multiple Starting Lineup figures of the 49ers. Old man was a Broncos fan, brother liked the Colts at the time. I'd took perverse pleasure rooting against the Broncos, so much so that I was pulling for Cleveland in those AFC Championship games and ended up following the Chiefs when Schottenheimer got there.
I loved playing Tecmo with San Francisco. Changed every play to throw to Jerry Rice.
My senior year of high school, our team played against Davenport Central in Craig’s final regular season game. After all these years I’m a bit hazy on the yardage numbers, but I believe it was either 248 or 256 yards and four TD’s.
In one half.
I’ve been a Chiefs fan my whole life, but I’m first and foremost a Cyclones fan. I’d be pulling for Purdy and the 49ers in the SB, but really I’d just be super happy with either team winning.
My high school was in Central's conference. My cross country coach told us stories of the games we played against them during that time. According to him, they blatantly telegraphed the play and we could do nothing to stop it.
