Brett Favre broke my spirits last week, but I've recovered (courtesy of the Rams).

I don't think we should use sports teams as a basis for hope, but the 49ers are looking better this season. Either that or it was the fact that the Giants unraveled late in their season, which made me turn to another Bay Area team to root for.

I hate that I have to see promise in order to put my faith in something. When the 49ers were ugly in the past few seasons, I really didn't want to watch. I'm a fair weather fan, I admit it. I'm faithful if only the win column is greater than the loss column. I guess this is what prevents me from being a diehard fan.
