Honest question: should I quit?

I'm 36 years old. I barely remember 94. All I've known since is losing in the NFCCG and now 3 SBs. This team has done nothing but disappoint me. Mooch era…Harbaugh era… now Shanahan era. Nothing but losing. What's the point? It messes with my mental health and makes me unproductive at work and I neglect other areas of my life during football season.

I don't know what it's like to be a winner. You older folks should appreciate your memories because some of us don't have those.

Just think…..you're some nobody dude that the world doesn't give two chits about, now imagine the dudes that ruined their bodies and their mental health and think how messed up mentally and emotionally they are knowing that they may never see that game again.

After you think about that, think about the fact there's kids and people all over this country and world that can't even get out of bed because of physical ailments that they had no chance to prevent, or even worse there's kids and people that are being abused in the most horrific ways that people can be abused.

You seriously want to talk about your "mental health" because your team lost a game?

That's pretty ridiculous in the grand scheme of life dude. Go to the gym, go volunteer for a charity, or go do something that you're able to do that other people in this world might not have the ability to do.

Get over it, there's innocent children being blown up right now today somewhere in this fked up world and you're worried about your feelings because of a football game.

That's lame imo

Jesus. Your username makes a lot of sense. A hard-ass response from a hard-ass WWII general. The dude's upset. Cut him some slack. Sure, he could use some perspective, but damn…

Winning the Super Bowl is great for a week or two then it's on to the draft anyway.

My teams (Tottenham Hotspurs & 49ers) have lost 8 straight cup finals , each one brings it's own unique flavour I've learnt to savou

I'd rather win one between slump years than be the (albeit quality) lovable losers we are now. There's 31 losers every year. We're just a footnote in other team's path to greatness.

I want us to win a ring.

Just a P.S.A. from Waterbear.

I removed all my subscriptions on YouTube and Instagram of anything football related. I feel so much better. Ya'll should do the same if you're still struggling like I am.

None of that matters if Shanny calls a better play on both 3rd and 4's. This was our game to lose, and we lost it. KC coaching made the right calls when it came down to it, Shanny made all of the wrong calls. Plain and simple.

Reid made ALL the right calls? Shanahan made NONE? Why the hell was the game tied at the end of 60 minutes? It's really unfortunate that Shanahan called that fumble, missed extra point and wayward punt.

I'm seriously considering canceling my YouTube Sunday Ticket. I don't want to pay $449.00 for 17 games of this garbage. I know the result already. BOUNCED in the NFC Championship Game or BOUNCED in the Super Bowl. Maybe NFL Premium Plus for $99.00. To watch the rewind game the next day. I know what Shanahan is. He will NEVER win the BIG GAME. That's all it's worth.

I go back and forth and the heartbreak of the SB losses and championship games is awful where as when the team is god awful, you're just frustrated at first, followed by a "who cares, they suck" mentality.

That said, recency bias is hard to overcome with SF. But ultimately, the dark years of 2003-2010; 2014-2018 were really really brutal. They had no hope. You thought they'd never ever be good again. The product was just terrible to watch. There was no talent, just watching awful, awful football.

We've seen some incredible games and all-time performances since then. The catch 3 with Harbaugh. The Saints thriller of 2019. The Packers snow game in 2021. The Greenlaw goal-line stop against Seattle in 2019. Some unbelievable The Lions comeback this year. Old-school beatdowns at the likes of Philly and Dallas.

Yes, we didn't close the deal. But I'll remember those games for the rest of my life. And that's getting me through this anguish.

agreed 100%

I know what they are with Shanahan and the Yorks. This team doesn't FOOL ME.

My father said in sports the fan suffers the most.

I can tell you as I have grown older I have learned not to hold it so dear as well. Case in point. When we lost in 19 the Yorks still held the celebration party with the players and the organization after the loss.

Don't forget the sport has changed since our grandfathers until now.... these guys are all millionaires. Their contract is the goal, not the super bowl anymore. That's a distant second for most players. Not saying I blame them but it had changed the culture and dynamic of the game imo.
