With the NFL back, will the Bay Area ever truly be a basketball town?

Hey, look! The NFL is back. Will the Warriors' championship ever truly turn the Bay Area into a purely basketball town, and does it even really matter?

The NFL returned this past weekend in all of its head-pounding, strange-call-making, cheerleaders-not-getting-paid, lawsuits-on-the-horizon glory!

The Bay Area, home to both the Raiders and the 49ers, has always been a bastion of football fandom (for the sake of this article, I'm not even going to dive into baseball. In my estimation, basketball comes third in the Bay behind football and baseball).

Now that the Warriors have been crowned champions of the Universe, do you think there's any chance in hell that the pendulum of Bay Area fandom swings more towards the basketball side of things?
