I went down a YouTube rabbit hole earlier & all of a sudden I'm watching highlights of the '94 NFC Title Game in SF, where the 49ers finally broke through & beat Dallas, denying the Cowboys a probable 3-peat (they probably crush the Bolts like SF did 2 weeks later).
I remember watching those 3 title games ('92, '93, & '94) with a sense of absolute sickness because I hated-HATED-both teams for the obvious reasons. And let's face it, we all knew the winner was going to win it all. People jokingly referred to it as the 'Real Super Bowl'.
I'm assuming 99.99% of the answers will be the 49ers, but who did you 'root'-& I use it in the loosest term possible-in those 3 agonizing matchups?
To me, the only other comparison would be 3 straight seasons where the Eagles-Cowboys met in the NFC Championship Game, in which case I'm rooting for an asteroid to slam into Earth & just end mankind. And you think I'm kidding, Haha.
Now is garbage 🗑 too
Otherwise, my two favorite football teams any given Sunday are the Giants and whoever is playing Dallas.
I have to admit, though, that as Dallas's actual success has waned (even though they are always hyped as if they were head and shoulders above the league), the Eagles have become more hatable for me. The Washington team? Well, as they say in the south, bless their hearts...
Horrible loss. We win that game, we win the division.
