Crap now I have to hear Ray Lewis in the post-game sounding like a whack-a-doodle.

Not a niners fan but can’t stand Thugimore.

Big mistake running the clock down from 2:30 to 2:00. They could use those 30 seconds now.

[fatima]

Brother against Brother-last play.

[BuckeyeTexan]

And that’s the game!

[Jet Jaguar]

Let the riots commence.

Holding would have given the Ravens the ball after eating up the clock. Then the punt will end the game. Same ending whether they took or declined the penalty.

[umgud]

Which will burn first or worst, SF or Baltimore?

[Political Junkie Too]

Freaking awesome, he says.

Actually, this is one case where holding would be a brilliant play.

Every Raven should have been holding on that play.

The penalty for holding in the end zone is a safety. But the clock still runs until the play is over.

So, if they all held, they could have kept anybody from tackling until the play was over.

Now, there would still be one more play, because of the penalty.

But that would have still meant the kickoff would be the last play of the game.

By holding, they knock the clock down enough so that the 49s can’t run the ball back far enough and still have time for a field goal.

SF burned a Muni bus when the Giants won the World Series. Wonder what they’ll do tonight?

[Girlene]

Ravens win. Flacco is MVP.

[Revolting cat!]

Evil triumphs once again!

At the end of the commercial, everybody in our room said “We are Farmers. Da Da DA da da da da”.

So while it was a cool commercial, I felt bad for Dodge, because we all remembered the insurance company.

[jennychase]

They are crying. I can see from my home. Sports bar is so silent now.

[justice14]

This is all a government conspiracy. Everything.

[Husker24]

We be burnin some sheeit down!

[virgil]

I give the 49ers credit. They almost came up to win. Being a Bears fan, I still think Jim Harbaugh is a puss.

[Third Person]

It’s good to be a thug.

[fatima]

I am right again Cat.Fatima knows.
