49ers going to Super Bowl

Here is the opening to my Monday column about the Niners beating the Falcons: ATLANTA -- The 49ers are going to the Super Bowl. Savor that thought. Not long ago, the 49ers were a joke, a poorly managed outfit that accomplished nothing and had zero standing in the NFL. This [...]
