Thursday night football open thread: Cheering on a 49ers loss

in 2010 St. Louis Rams season

PrintCome on, who does't enjoy seeing the San Francisco 49ers lose? I know I do, especially when there's a three way race for the NFC West.
Tonight's game has major implications for the NFL playoff picture. A 49ers loss puts them in a difficult position with respect to the division. A loss would drop them to 5-9, making their last two games of the season must-win situations if they're going to have a shot at 7-9 and the potential for a division title.
A 49ers loss combined with a St. Louis Rams win this week would give the Rams some cushion (more cushion for the playoff pushin'), leaving the Rams at 7-7 and two games ahead of the 49ers. Seattle, currently sporting the same record as the Rams, is overmatched by Atlanta this week.
San Diego is favored by 9 points over San Francisco.
Go Rams...and for now, Go Chargers!
Also, I'm going to keep pitching this until we get to 500, but be sure to get into the Turf Show Times Facebook community extender, or whatever. Come on, it's the perfect excuse for when you get caught looking at the trophy wives of the dude you went to high school with. And I'll say it again, if you're down with Facebook, that's cool too.

van whats up with our FF league??
Not showing any playoff games
Pooch punts should be illegal inside an opponents 38 yard line.
Good question
I was looking at that too. I kind of dropped the ball and screwed up the settings, so it has some quirks. #leagueManagerFail

I hate to say it
but I pretty much ran yall out the league this year. I love yall, but I had to put it on ya.
You don't seem to want to accept the fact you're dealing with an expert in guerrilla warfare, with a man who's the best, with guns, with knives, with his bare hands. A man who's been trained to ignore pain, ignore weather, to live off the land, to eat things that would make a billy goat puke. In *St. Louis* his job was to dispose of enemy personnel. To kill! Period! Win by attrition. Well, *Steven Jackson* was the best.
Lets go Chargers!

Go Rams, Go Chargers, Go Falcons.
and oh yea, GO RAMS!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn 49ers can lose this
and still go to playoffs by beating us and the Cards smh

nevermind... they would still have the tiebreaker if they beat us again
now what would happen if we were tied and each had one a game?
Gah
As I watch this, I can’t help but think the 49ers are a better team than the Rams. Their only problem seems to be at QB and at least now, Alex Smith seems to be playing pretty well.
It’s a shame that the Rams didn’t try harder to get Westbrook.
Yeah the 49ers have all the talent in the world.
Hopefully they don’t get Kyle Ortin, or any other good QB

I would line our special teams up and shoot them
if they were as riduculously horrible as the sd chargers st

I am so stoked to go to this game….. i have a feeling…. I will be slightly intoxicated and loud…. just a feeling though

I met Joe Halahuni's parents.....in Alaska. Jealous?
In the lower 100s
I got it from the main website for the Rams off of facebook, but I tried to for tickets a few weeks ago.
by Tevin T. Broner on Dec 16, 2010 8:27 PM CST up reply actions
actually
i’m sure you can get a pretty penny for those tickets
I met Joe Halahuni's parents.....in Alaska. Jealous?
I would have to drive to STL.
I live in Arkansas andI spent all my money and I don’t get paid till next tuesday :(
by Tevin T. Broner on Dec 16, 2010 8:34 PM CST up reply actions
how long would it be to mail them here?
cause that’d be a hell of a lot better seats.

JUSTIN SMITH!!!!! MWAHAHAHA
Doesn’t that require an automatic one week suspension as well? :-p
Wish I can go to a Rams game...
but I can’t afford it, I live in Pittsburgh, and the Rams never come here.
Rams play steelers there next year.Better get your tickets.

Oh OGC your in Pittsburgh too?
If you’re that’s kinda cool, I always feel like I’m the only Rams fan living here.
The guy i'm playing in semi-finals
has Vincent Jackson…..and he pretty much single-handedly will beat me, I’m a 2-time defending champ in that league too. :(
I met Joe Halahuni's parents.....in Alaska. Jealous?
I like it.
You hit these Niners in the mouth once (the goal line stand) the crumble like a deck of cards. Can’t wait to see visions of Chris Long dancing in Alex Smith’s eyes. He’ll have the fear.
Go Rams, playoff bound baby!
what is wierd
is that SF’s defense was actually making me nervous at the beginning of the game because they looked so good but this game is showing me that you can break their spirit pretty easily if you like pmac said “hit them in the mouth once” I hope the coaches and players are watching this game and taking notes for next week
you know what's great about st. louis?
I’m going to a casino tonight!
haven’t been to one since august in Oregon
I met Joe Halahuni's parents.....in Alaska. Jealous?
mcmichael cannot catch the freakin ball correctly, bobbled it again lol
Sam the MAN! GIANTS WIN THE WORLD SERIES!!!!!!!

seriously
nothing like watching the 9ers or seahawks get shutout….. it gives me warm fuzzies…lmao
So in my madden franchise today
Chris Long in week 1 had 5 sacks…….5……lol against Duece Latui
Sam Bradford
DX had 300 yard recieving 4 me
It was fun

Question
about the ejection of 49ers DL Smith earlier for pushing the ref. Is that the only punishment on that or could he get more (ie fines) …….not that he deserves it per say just didnt know what the rules are on that.
lol
Love watching the niners get smoked.

AND THATS WHY YOU SIGN VINCENT JACKSON
The only thing comparable to a Rams win is a 49er loss!
by DevsLaRams on Dec 16, 2010 9:56 PM CST via mobile reply actions
31-0 LMAO
And V Jackson looking like superman… wonder if Devaney is watching this evening

Man I may have to crak open a beer early in the week

gotta keep him for me too
he is a hellova slot
I am not attached to him
but I would love to see him have a full healthy year with Bradford. He looked like he had potential with Bulger throwing to him, which makes me wonder just how good he could be with Bradford
McMichael looked good tonight
makes me wonder how he may have did this year with Bradford
Pooch punts should be illegal inside an opponents 38 yard line.
he had a good game
but I don’t know that I could ever take that next step to wanting him back…lol
I like noticing the difference between the 9ers bad loss tonight and the Rams loss
last week vs the saints. The 9ers look like they gave up at half time.
Same scenario too, where the 49ers were about to get back in the game with an alex smith TD and it didnt happen then the Chargers just took over the game.
All I want for Christmas is a Pete Carroll scowl on week 17!
our boys have such heart
dont know if you saw it but Nacho’s link post today had Mora and Sapp video where they were talking about NFC West. They were both saying we should win it…. and Mora was talking about being at the game last week and the grit and fight in our team even in the fourth…. really good… if you didn’t see it you should give it a look.
Oh woah I am going to check it out now!
All I want for Christmas is a Pete Carroll scowl on week 17!
how many times did the dumbass commentators say the 49ers can still make the playoffs?
not happening
Just a little food for thought to end the night with boys....
The ref that ejected 49ers Smith tonight was the same ref that punched fells….lmao….mess with the bull you get the horns my friends
yes sorry darby....lol
I was going on no sleep in 48 hours after a 12 hour shift….
We believe in you!

on behalf of everyone here
we would like to thank your team for the absolute stomping you just put on the 49ers….our team plans to return the favor on Sunday.

Since the topic is basically over by now
Any MMA fans in the house?
“Showtime” Pettis just pulled off one of the craziest moves I’ve ever seen in an actual fight. Straight out of a videogame. Way too amped to sleep now.

I was just over the 49ers site and they are all acting like its the end of the world. So funny.

Their tears taste like victory.
However, it’s bittwersweet. Alas, this might be enough to make them realize that they need a new coach, OC and QB. It might finally be the end of the Alex Smith era! Augh!
no mercy
this is what i found on the niner website grr..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VQcL-YvhLE&feature=player_embedded
I really can't believe...
…that I saw a 5-8 team get eviscerated and drop to 5-9, and they’re still in the playoff hunt.
