I am no fair weather fan, but being a 49ers fan has been a tough pill to swallow over the past five years. After the franchise’s last Conference Championship win in 2012, winning seems to be at a premium for San Francisco. But, despite my team’s record, I still wear my red and gold.
As a Bay Area native, I come from a background of die-hard fans devoted to the Golden State Warriors, San Francisco Giants and San Francisco 49ers. But basketball and baseball have not posed an issue for us Bay Area fans, at least not in the same way football has.
