GT- That's the way I see it. This team is mostly young and inexperienced, yet they are already able to get to, and nearly win the Superbowl. Now that they have this experience, they'll be even better. I don't see how anyone can look at this 49er team and say their window of opportunity has closed and expect to be taken seriously. This is only the beginning. I understand that people are upset over the loss, but getting upset at the team isn't the right thing to do. Deciding that the team missed its window of opportunity and is going to start fading isn't the right thing to do. Especially with mountains of evidence to the contrary.

This time next year, the Harbaugh family will be in focus at the Superbowl again. But it will be Jim who is coaching in the game while mom, dad, and brother John are spectators.
