Is this a trick question?  So do you want your real name sake to win or your moniker name sake?  ;D ;D  And you thought it would be easy to guess (John aka 49er).

John,
looks like the lights went out for your team too.  :(
(For those who don't watch, the lights in the indoor stadium went out!  :o )

As Dandy Don Meridth used to say, "turn out the lights, the partys over". Still 25 minutes left but if SF pulls this out, it will be a miracle.

Nothing better than a game that's decided in the last minute.  At least your name sake won the game John.  ;)  I don't know if anyone else noticed but John H. seemed a lot more at ease and relaxed before the game.  Jim looked like he was wound tighter than a drum.
