She has also brought KQED Science to new platforms such as Reddit’s Ask Me Anything series. Prior to joining KQED Science, Amanda spent seven years as an engagement producer with Forum, KQED’s daily live call-in show. She got her start in radio at KALW's weekly call in show, City Visions, before going on to an internship and stint at NPR's Talk of the Nation.\r\n\r\nPrior to journalism, Amanda taught English at Lowell High School. She's a native of Petaluma and currently lives under the \"South San Francisco the Industrial City\" sign in South City.

Jacoby and her team provided those living on the streets with blankets, seeking not only to provide warmth to those who needed it, but also to incite conversation and create visibility for a community that’s otherwise \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/03/09/mayor-lee-blasts-talk-of-homeless-crisis-and-calls-for-critics-to-aid-citys-efforts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">neglected\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our goal is to use creativity to unite,” Jacoby says. “We’re making a visual statement, making a ceremony of care; it’s a mechanism to address this problem.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Families, friends and other community members came together at knitting circles held in two Mission stores, \u003ca href=\"https://missionpraxis.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Praxis\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.alleycatbookshop.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Alley Cat Books.\u003c/a> Those who came out would put together blankets that doubled as ponchos and distribute them in the weeks leading up to the Super Bowl. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The project’s efforts gained national attention, with inquiries and notes of appreciation coming in from other states, according to Undercover’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/UndercoverSF/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook page\u003c/a>, which also provides \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/UndercoverSF/posts/1029187463790582\">patterns\u003c/a> for people hoping to make and distribute blankets themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The whole idea was for people to feel like they’re making a difference through making garments and connecting with people when they distribute them,” says Ivan Vera, program manager at Hospitality House, which helped print the Undercover blankets. “The goal is to get in touch with those who are homeless and share their humanity – they’re not invisible people; they’re just less fortunate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jacoby has since gone on to speak about Undercover to different high schools along the Peninsula, hoping to engage students with the project, according to Txutxo Perez, one of the artists involved with the project.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Some kids helped distribute during the first part of the project and got really into it and wanted to bring the experience back to their schools,” Perez says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says he believes bringing such experiences and information to the younger generation is a start, as they’ll be the ones making significant changes in the future. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the larger blanket project was mostly focused on the Super Bowl, Undercover has served as inspiration for smaller efforts: Praxis distributed Undercover hats back in March, and Perez says an artist friend of his in Greece started her own project that focuses on recycling lifesaver vests from people displaced by war into backpacks for them to use on further travels. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ultimately the goal of the project was to connect people — disenfranchised and not — and share each other’s humanity, and Vera says he believes Undercover did just that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I hope the project has taught others to listen to people, have compassion, start understanding how one becomes homeless – we don’t want to lose that part of ourselves that make us human.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>Watch our report on the Undercover project during the Super Bowl:\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcC6uCISQaw\u003c/p>\n\n",

The financing arrangements are so complicated that Matheson plans to spend part of his summer trying to figure them out, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he says one thing is clear: “The 49ers got a huge tax break.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Santa Clara Stadium Authority, which is owned by the city of Santa Clara, cosigned an \u003ca href=\"http://santaclaraca.gov/Modules/ShowDocument.aspx?documentid=6551\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">$850 million loan\u003c/a> that pays the bulk of the cost for building the stadium. (The remainder is financed by the league and a few other sources.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city expects income from naming rights, season ticket license sales, and luxury box sales to repay the loan. (Levi Strauss just agreed to pay $220 million to name the new venue Levi’s Stadium, so that part is underway.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But this income will technically accrue to the Santa Clara Stadium Authority. And as a public entity, it doesn’t have to pay taxes. So the state and federal government lose out on corporate income taxes that the 49ers would have had to pay, Matheson said. “So you have a large corporate entity generating a large number of revenues and not having to pay taxes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taxpayers lose out because the state and federal government can’t afford services they might have paid if the 49ers were paying taxes the way other companies do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s all perfectly legal, said Matheson, just not necessarily beneficial to taxpayers. “The 49ers have quite a sweetheart deal with Santa Clara,” he said. “You don’t see other firms getting this type of treatment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beerman responds that Santa Clara has no regrets so far. “The city pushed for, and got, a better deal than any other city in the NFL,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Notably, it avoided the problem of some other cities, like Oakland, which was on the hook when ticket sales fell short of expectations. That was the reason for setting up a separate entity, the \u003ca href=\"http://santaclaraca.gov/index.aspx?page=1197\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Santa Clara Stadium Authority\u003c/a>, to finance the stadium, insulating the city’s general fund.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether or not Santa Clara or the Bay Area got a good deal may not be known for years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in the meantime, Matheson is willing to acknowledge one benefit to having the Super Bowl in town: “There is evidence that events like this make people happy.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

The financing arrangements are so complicated that Matheson plans to spend part of his summer trying to figure them out, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he says one thing is clear: “The 49ers got a huge tax break.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Santa Clara Stadium Authority, which is owned by the city of Santa Clara, cosigned an \u003ca href=\"http://santaclaraca.gov/Modules/ShowDocument.aspx?documentid=6551\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">$850 million loan\u003c/a> that pays the bulk of the cost for building the stadium. (The remainder is financed by the league and a few other sources.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city expects income from naming rights, season ticket license sales, and luxury box sales to repay the loan. (Levi Strauss just agreed to pay $220 million to name the new venue Levi’s Stadium, so that part is underway.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But this income will technically accrue to the Santa Clara Stadium Authority. And as a public entity, it doesn’t have to pay taxes. So the state and federal government lose out on corporate income taxes that the 49ers would have had to pay, Matheson said. “So you have a large corporate entity generating a large number of revenues and not having to pay taxes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taxpayers lose out because the state and federal government can’t afford services they might have paid if the 49ers were paying taxes the way other companies do.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s all perfectly legal, said Matheson, just not necessarily beneficial to taxpayers. “The 49ers have quite a sweetheart deal with Santa Clara,” he said. “You don’t see other firms getting this type of treatment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beerman responds that Santa Clara has no regrets so far. “The city pushed for, and got, a better deal than any other city in the NFL,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Notably, it avoided the problem of some other cities, like Oakland, which was on the hook when ticket sales fell short of expectations. That was the reason for setting up a separate entity, the \u003ca href=\"http://santaclaraca.gov/index.aspx?page=1197\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Santa Clara Stadium Authority\u003c/a>, to finance the stadium, insulating the city’s general fund.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether or not Santa Clara or the Bay Area got a good deal may not be known for years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The penalty most likely would've given San Francisco a new set of downs with the ball at about the Ravens' 2-yard line. The Ravens defense may have gone on to stymy the 49ers and keep them out of the end zone. Perhaps 49ers Running Back Frank Gore would have fumbled, or Quarterback Colin Kaepernick would have thrown an interception. The 49ers might have scored on the next play, only to have Ravens Quarterback Joe Flacco then lead his team on a game-winning drive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, it's safe to say that for years to come, many 49ers fans will be wondering what might have happened if a flag had been thrown.\u003c/p>\n\n",

The penalty most likely would've given San Francisco a new set of downs with the ball at about the Ravens' 2-yard line. The Ravens defense may have gone on to stymy the 49ers and keep them out of the end zone. Perhaps 49ers Running Back Frank Gore would have fumbled, or Quarterback Colin Kaepernick would have thrown an interception. The 49ers might have scored on the next play, only to have Ravens Quarterback Joe Flacco then lead his team on a game-winning drive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, it's safe to say that for years to come, many 49ers fans will be wondering what might have happened if a flag had been thrown.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Some of these [players] are black and some are white, some are Christians, non-Christians… and those stories don’t get any coverage at the national level from ESPN or Sports Illustrated. [KQED] doesn’t have me on to talk about those stories.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think what Chris [Culliver] said is completely out there,” said Burke. “I think there are a lot of professional athletes who unfortunately still hold on to that belief, but I do think he’s in the minority. Back in 2006, \u003ca href=\"http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sport Illustrated\u003c/a> did a survey of NFL players and asked them if they would support an openly gay teammate and about 60 percent said they would.

The Forum panel strongly disagreed:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People have this notion that homophobic slurs are supposed to have two meanings,” responded Burke. “We call it ‘casual homophobia.’ People say, ‘I say the word ‘fag’ but I don’t mean that. I mean it as in ‘Oh, you’re being uncool.’ or [when I say] ‘That’s so gay’ I mean ‘That’s so uncool.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I could never do that with a racial slur,” said Burke. ” I could never use the ‘n-word’ and say, ‘Oh, I only use that for people who wear \u003ca href=\"https://www.google.com/search?q=Crocs+&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a#hl=en&sugexp=les%3Bcqn%2Cfixedpos%3Dfalse%2Cboost_normal%3D40%2Cboost_high%3D40%2Ccconf%3D1.2%2Cmin_length%3D2%2Crate_low%3D0.035%2Crate_high%3D0.035%2Csecond_pass%3Dfalse%2Cignore_bad_origquery%3Dtrue%2Conetoken%3Dfalse&gs_rn=0&gs_ri=serp-qn&cp=0&tok=joCRmUdBk5Q01q6FfcahDg&pq=crocs%20&gs_id=3x&xhr=t&q=Crocs&es_nrs=true&pf=p&client=firefox-a&hs=UOD&tbo=d&rls=org.mozilla:en-US%3Aofficial&sclient=psy-ab&oq=Crocs&gs_l=&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&bvm=bv.41934586,d.cGE&fp=4343d03e1e396a3d&biw=1280&bih=870\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Crocs\u003c/a> in public.

I think athletes need to do a better job of that. What I try and teach from my own experience is that it’s easy to eliminate homophobic slurs from your vocabulary, it’s easy to be an ally to the gay community, and it’s a lot easier than sitting your brother down and apologizing when he’s come out later.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>4) Discussion is a Good Thing\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As upsetting as Chris Culliver’s comments were to some, the LGBT advocates on \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/a/forum/R201301310930\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Forum\u003c/a> were glad he said them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Sometimes you don’t realize how homophobic you are until you are put on the spot, “said Kopay. “This is a learning experience for [Culliver].”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I want to know where athletes stand because that way we know what we need to do to fix the problem,” said Zeigler. ” Brendon Ayanbadejo is an LBGT supporter, he’s with the Baltimore Ravens and he had said that he would make the Superbowl a platform to talk about gay issues. He did not do that. With one interview, this guy, Chris Culliver” made gay issues one of the top five stories for this Super Bowl. “A supporter could never have done what this guy did.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And as to the question of whether too much is being made of \u003ca href=\"http://insidescoopsf.sfgate.com/blog/2013/01/30/49ers-kiss-at-san-franciscos-first-gay-sports-bar-immortalized-in-sports-illustrated/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hi Tops\u003c/a>, a San Francisco gay sports bar that was featured in Sports Illustrated: “Anytime the word ‘gay’ gets into Sports Illustrated or ESPN, I’m all for it,” Zeigler said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

They have a young, African-American, gay former NFL-er who is happy and willing and eager to go in and work with athletes — why isn’t he on the first phone call?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“On \u003ca href=\"http://www.outsports.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">OutSports\u003c/a> we’ve written on almost three dozen current and former NFL players who in the last year have come out in support of same-sex marriage,” said Zeigler. “They’ve said they wouldn’t care if they had a gay teammate. Some of these [players] are black and some are white, some are Christians, non-Christians… and those stories don’t get any coverage at the national level from ESPN or Sports Illustrated. [KQED] doesn’t have me on to talk about those stories.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think what Chris [Culliver] said is completely out there,” said Burke. “I think there are a lot of professional athletes who unfortunately still hold on to that belief, but I do think he’s in the minority. Back in 2006, \u003ca href=\"http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sport Illustrated\u003c/a> did a survey of NFL players and asked them if they would support an openly gay teammate and about 60 percent said they would. And that was seven years ago. My guess is its’ probably in the 70 to 75 percent of NFL-ers would support an openly gay teammate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>3) Words Matter\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the show a caller shared his opinion that it’s okay to use derogatory slurs for humorous effect and in other situations, if the openly gay people in one’s life know that they have one’s support. The Forum panel strongly disagreed:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People have this notion that homophobic slurs are supposed to have two meanings,” responded Burke. “We call it ‘casual homophobia.’ People say, ‘I say the word ‘fag’ but I don’t mean that. I mean it as in ‘Oh, you’re being uncool.’ or [when I say] ‘That’s so gay’ I mean ‘That’s so uncool.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I could never do that with a racial slur,” said Burke. ” I could never use the ‘n-word’ and say, ‘Oh, I only use that for people who wear \u003ca href=\"https://www.google.com/search?q=Crocs+&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a#hl=en&sugexp=les%3Bcqn%2Cfixedpos%3Dfalse%2Cboost_normal%3D40%2Cboost_high%3D40%2Ccconf%3D1.2%2Cmin_length%3D2%2Crate_low%3D0.035%2Crate_high%3D0.035%2Csecond_pass%3Dfalse%2Cignore_bad_origquery%3Dtrue%2Conetoken%3Dfalse&gs_rn=0&gs_ri=serp-qn&cp=0&tok=joCRmUdBk5Q01q6FfcahDg&pq=crocs%20&gs_id=3x&xhr=t&q=Crocs&es_nrs=true&pf=p&client=firefox-a&hs=UOD&tbo=d&rls=org.mozilla:en-US%3Aofficial&sclient=psy-ab&oq=Crocs&gs_l=&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&bvm=bv.41934586,d.cGE&fp=4343d03e1e396a3d&biw=1280&bih=870\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Crocs\u003c/a> in public. And yet I’m supposed to accept that homophobic slurs have two senses, or two ways that they can be used — it’s crap.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For athletes, I don’t think we’re asking a lot here,” said Burke. “I think if you eliminate five or 10 words from your vocabulary, you’re 90 percent of the way there and where we need to be. I think athletes need to do a better job of that. What I try and teach from my own experience is that it’s easy to eliminate homophobic slurs from your vocabulary, it’s easy to be an ally to the gay community, and it’s a lot easier than sitting your brother down and apologizing when he’s come out later.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>4) Discussion is a Good Thing\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As upsetting as Chris Culliver’s comments were to some, the LGBT advocates on \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/a/forum/R201301310930\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Forum\u003c/a> were glad he said them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Sometimes you don’t realize how homophobic you are until you are put on the spot, “said Kopay. “This is a learning experience for [Culliver].”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I want to know where athletes stand because that way we know what we need to do to fix the problem,” said Zeigler. ” Brendon Ayanbadejo is an LBGT supporter, he’s with the Baltimore Ravens and he had said that he would make the Superbowl a platform to talk about gay issues. He did not do that. With one interview, this guy, Chris Culliver” made gay issues one of the top five stories for this Super Bowl. “A supporter could never have done what this guy did.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But the 49ers missed the two-point conversion that would have tied the game with less than 10 minutes left.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crabtree didn't get much help in a mistake-filled first half by San Francisco (13-5-1), which failed to stop Joe Flacco and deliver the franchise's sixth championship that would have matched the Pittsburgh Steelers for most ever.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 49ers' perfect Super Bowl record? That's over, too. They lost for the first time in the championship game.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps it's a bit premature to begin talking Bay Area dynasty again — in football, at least.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Playing for a title for the first time since Hall of Famers Steve Young and Jerry Rice won with a rout of San Diego 18 years ago, Jim Harbaugh's Niners made costly mistakes on both sides of the ball early in the game. And special teams, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kaepernick did a little bit of everything in San Francisco's final drive, when the 49ers got the ball back at their own 20 with 4:19 remaining and trailing 34-29. He ran for 8 yards, hit Crabtree on a 24-yard gain and handed off to Frank Gore for a 33-yard run to the Baltimore 7.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with three chances from the 5, Kaepernick threw three straight incomplete passes intended for Crabtree. His off-balance throw under pressure on fourth down sailed through the end zone. Kaepernick lowered his head slightly and walked slowly off the field.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No comeback this time in the Big Easy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kaepernick wound up 16 for 28 for 302 yards with three sacks and an interception for a 91.7 passer rating in his outstanding Super Bowl debut. The interception was the first by the 49ers in six Super Bowls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 25-year-old completed 8 of 13 first-half passes, was sacked twice and threw an interception as San Francisco fell behind 21-6.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the NFC championship game at Atlanta two weeks ago, such a deficit was no problem. Kaepernick rallied the Niners back from 17-0, while the defense delivered by holding the Falcons scoreless in the second half to win 28-24.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Sunday, Kaepernick led his team into the end zone for the first time with 7:20 remaining in the third quarter after the power outage when he found Crabtree.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a stingy San Francisco defense that relied on its ball-hawking, run-stopping play all season, couldn't consistently slow down Flacco and the high-powered Ravens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leading up to the Super Bowl, Kaepernick had handled himself beautifully in hostile environments — beating Drew Brees and the Saints right here in the Superdome on Nov. 25, and later guiding the Niners at New England. And, of course, the win against the Falcons on Jan. 20 that returned San Francisco to the Super Bowl at last.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 49ers were hoping for their own downtown victory parade and to have the World Series champion Giants take part after Harbaugh and quarterback Alex Smith drove in the San Francisco baseball team's parade last fall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco would have become the first market to win a World Series and Super Bowl in the same season since the Boston Red Sox accomplished it in 2004 and the New England Patriots followed suit in February 2005.\u003c/p>\n\n",

But the 49ers missed the two-point conversion that would have tied the game with less than 10 minutes left.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crabtree didn't get much help in a mistake-filled first half by San Francisco (13-5-1), which failed to stop Joe Flacco and deliver the franchise's sixth championship that would have matched the Pittsburgh Steelers for most ever.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 49ers' perfect Super Bowl record? That's over, too. They lost for the first time in the championship game.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps it's a bit premature to begin talking Bay Area dynasty again — in football, at least.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Playing for a title for the first time since Hall of Famers Steve Young and Jerry Rice won with a rout of San Diego 18 years ago, Jim Harbaugh's Niners made costly mistakes on both sides of the ball early in the game. And special teams, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kaepernick did a little bit of everything in San Francisco's final drive, when the 49ers got the ball back at their own 20 with 4:19 remaining and trailing 34-29. He ran for 8 yards, hit Crabtree on a 24-yard gain and handed off to Frank Gore for a 33-yard run to the Baltimore 7.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with three chances from the 5, Kaepernick threw three straight incomplete passes intended for Crabtree. His off-balance throw under pressure on fourth down sailed through the end zone. Kaepernick lowered his head slightly and walked slowly off the field.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No comeback this time in the Big Easy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kaepernick wound up 16 for 28 for 302 yards with three sacks and an interception for a 91.7 passer rating in his outstanding Super Bowl debut. The interception was the first by the 49ers in six Super Bowls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 25-year-old completed 8 of 13 first-half passes, was sacked twice and threw an interception as San Francisco fell behind 21-6.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the NFC championship game at Atlanta two weeks ago, such a deficit was no problem. Kaepernick rallied the Niners back from 17-0, while the defense delivered by holding the Falcons scoreless in the second half to win 28-24.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Sunday, Kaepernick led his team into the end zone for the first time with 7:20 remaining in the third quarter after the power outage when he found Crabtree.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a stingy San Francisco defense that relied on its ball-hawking, run-stopping play all season, couldn't consistently slow down Flacco and the high-powered Ravens.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leading up to the Super Bowl, Kaepernick had handled himself beautifully in hostile environments — beating Drew Brees and the Saints right here in the Superdome on Nov. 25, and later guiding the Niners at New England. And, of course, the win against the Falcons on Jan. 20 that returned San Francisco to the Super Bowl at last.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 49ers were hoping for their own downtown victory parade and to have the World Series champion Giants take part after Harbaugh and quarterback Alex Smith drove in the San Francisco baseball team's parade last fall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco would have become the first market to win a World Series and Super Bowl in the same season since the Boston Red Sox accomplished it in 2004 and the New England Patriots followed suit in February 2005.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

She said the excitement is at a \u003ca href=\"http://www.turlockjournal.com/section/14/article/18609/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fever pitch\u003c/a>. “The last time we had this much attention in Turlock was when Sarah Palin came to talk at the university.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hacker covered Kaepernick as a sports reporter and says he’s a nice, down-to-earth guy. He excelled in football, baseball and basketball at Turlock’s Pitman High. Before that, he played youth football as a 9-year-old quarterback. In fourth grade, he wrote a now- famous \u003ca href=\"http://www.ninersnation.com/2011/5/1/2147883/49ers-draft-pick-colin-kaepernick-has-wanted-to-play-for-them-since-4th-grade\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">letter for a time capsule project\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>I’m 5 ft 2 inches 91 pounds.

She couldn’t find a jersey-shaped cookie cutter, so she uses one in the shape of a baby’s onesy. “We’re cutting out the onesy and cutting off the bottom of it to look like a jersey.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s also a Kaepernick special at Main Street Footers, where twenty-year-old employee Molly Amant said their foot-long hot dog comes with chili, coleslaw, jalapenos and special sauce. “Unique, spicy and hot,” she said, comparing them to Kaepernick. Amant has worked here four years and said sales have doubled in the last week. “It’s been crazy busy, like insanely busy,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Others said some are even driving from places like Reno, where Kaepernick played college football, so they can watch the big game in his hometown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back at the barbershop, customer James White was getting ready to leave. Barber Ruben Hernandez asked him one more time if he’ll watch the Super Bowl.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I probably will have to now,” said White, laughing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He has a change of plans,” said Hernandez. “Earlier he said ‘probably not.’ I thought ‘oh my gosh.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s a tailgate party in town this weekend — and the mayor has proclaimed Saturday and Sunday “Go Colin Kaepernick and the San Francisco 49ers Weekend.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-size: xx-small\">\u003ca href=\"http://www.docstoc.com/docs/143230331/KaepProc\">KaepProc\u003c/a>\u003c/span>\u003cbr>\n\u003cobject id=\"_ds_143230331\" width=\"630\" height=\"550\" classid=\"d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" codebase=\"http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\" name=\"_ds_143230331\">\u003cparam name=\"FlashVars\" value=\"doc_id=143230331&mem_id=128122&showrelated=1&showotherdocs=1&doc_type=pdf&allowdownload=1\">\u003cparam name=\"allowScriptAccess\" value=\"always\">\u003cparam name=\"wmode\" value=\"opaque\">\u003cparam name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\">\u003cparam name=\"src\" value=\"http://viewer.docstoc.com/\">\u003cembed width=\"630\" height=\"550\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" src=\"http://viewer.docstoc.com/\" flashvars=\"doc_id=143230331&mem_id=128122&showrelated=1&showotherdocs=1&doc_type=pdf&allowdownload=1\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" wmode=\"opaque\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" name=\"_ds_143230331\">\u003c/embed>\u003c/object>\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center\">\u003cem>Turlock…\u003c/em>\u003c/div>\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center\">\u003ciframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https://maps.google.com/maps?oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&q=turlock+california&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Turlock,+Stanislaus,+California&gl=us&t=m&ll=37.492294,-120.849609&spn=3.05078,4.669189&z=7&iwloc=A&output=embed\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" width=\"425\" height=\"350\">\u003c/iframe>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"https://maps.google.com/maps?oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&q=turlock+california&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Turlock,+Stanislaus,+California&gl=us&t=m&ll=37.492294,-120.849609&spn=3.05078,4.669189&z=7&iwloc=A&source=embed\">View Larger Map\u003c/a>\u003c/div>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Baltimore does not have the fastest defense in the league.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then again, the 49ers must deal with Joe Flacco, the only QB to win a postseason game in each of his first five seasons. Flacco also has six road playoff victories, a league record.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He's also outplayed Brady, the most successful quarterback of the last dozen seasons, in two straight AFC title games.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he has his critics because this is his first Super Bowl trip in five tries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think there is definitely a part of all of us that hear things and when somebody doubts what you want to do, you definitely go show them that they may be wrong,\" he said. \"I think for the most part we play for each other and that stuff is kind of a secondary issue.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the Ravens and 49ers play for each other, the Harbaugh brothers, John of the Ravens and Jim of the 49ers, will go against each other in the first Super Bowl featuring sibling head coaches.
