I won’t say I root for the San Francisco 49ers to the bitter end, but generally it’s pretty close to that. Personally, I don’t like rooting for them to lose until they have well and truly lost, and I think I hit that point just before Saturday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams kicked off.
The Cleveland Browns won their game, shockingly, and that said to me that it was then absolutely okay to root for a 49ers loss so they could nab that top draft pick. But 49ers defensive back Rashard Robinson had something to say about that, and sealed the game in favor of San Francisco with a fourth quarter interception.
