Post 153: All is now right in the world...

...well, in my world anyway. Jerry Rice will go into the Hall of Fame as a San Francisco 49ers. Not a Raider; not a Seahawk; not a Bronco. He is back where he belongs. And though that may just seem so trivial to most of you, it is a big thing in the life of a 49er faithful. He brought so much grace, poise, leadership, prestige and class to a sport that lacks a lot of good role models. He was the epitome of a role model in sports: a hard-worker, encourager and determined individual. I am so happy that he will go into the NFL Hall of Fame where he started his storied career: San Francisco.

It's a little miracle in what is a very tough time for us Niner fans - but one we'll take, gladly. :-)
