    A former matchup nightmare with the San Diego Chargers, Alfred Pupunu now coaches players more than just football.

        I am an eternal believer in a chip and a chair. I too will never forget gibson’s goal line outstretched dive to knock down that pass. I never quit until I’ve actually lost, I always believe victory is possible. i tend to mock or fight against the negative doom club here based on that instinctive perspective of “why not us?!”.

        That ‘94 did so much more with so much less. Unlike the several “great” Charger teams that had too much and squandered it, they deserve to be specially honored.

        just not honored as the greatest roster. Rather, I honor them even more so because they so obviously were not close to the best roster.

          What sucks even more, they didn’t even get a fair fight in the end, that SF team was cheatier than any NE team under Belicheat. Just amazing cap cheating to create that monster. So many SB wins are tainted..

            Was it their owner that got banned from the game and had to sell? Or was that a different scandal? I have trouble keeping all of their cheating sorted out

              I believe it was their owner, Eddie DeBartoto (sp?). They sure did have an all-star team!

                It was DeBartolo, but the scandal was related to bribery for a gambling license in Louisiana...but yes, he did have to give up his ownership in the Niners...oh, and he was also pardoned by Trump...Make Riverboat Gamblers Great Again:

                  We start this season 2-0 and the sky is the limit. This will be our first SB win!

                        First glance I thought i started with Hank Bauer and I thought to myself “ oh for fuck’s sake”. Herb Bosa makes a lot more sense

                          Hacksaw pronounced his name POOP-uh-noo, rather than puh-POO-noo, like everyone else did.

                          I *still* laugh at all of the stupid things he did and said.
