Super Bowl LIV- my take

Super Bowl LIV- my take

     While it was disappointing to see the 49ers lose the Super Bowl for the second time, 
   the team surpassed expectations the previous season. To go from 4-12 record to a 13-3
   record is quite the accomplishment.  

      QB Jimmy Garoppolo played a full season since tearing his ACL last year and the
   drafting of star defensive end Nick Bosa really helped the team become better. While I 
   do congratulate the Chiefs on winning the big game, it will give the Niners motivation
   to do better and return to the big game.

      I do think the refs had it out for them. Case in point, the holding penalty by Eric 
    Fisher so Pat Mahomes could throw it deep was never called and allowed the Chiefs
    to score. The NFL is a star driven league and what better way to prove that by 
    promoting Mahomes as the face of the league and gracing the cover of the last 
    football video game and magazines. 

       While I realize that Chiefs winning coincided with the NFL's 100th anniversary,
    the league is starting to become almost scripted. The more this happens, the more
    fans should tune out or have the league investigated on rigging charges but I quite
    frankly, don't see that happening as the money will keep flowing in.
