Yes, and I am sure that Joe would like to forget about that game
too! He ended up spending the night in the hospital because of that
little love greeting that Burt sent him :->
Speaking of Burt, during the Niners/Giants game on Sunday, they
did a little segment on Burt. I thought that it was a little
strange that the majority of the footage they showed of Burt, most
of it was Burt wearing the Red & Gold.  Burt did make a nice
contribution for a few years with the Niners, but I feel that he
made his name in New York.  I just think that they should have shown
most of Burt's footage in a Giants uniform.  It would only be fair
to show career footage of Lott wearing the Red & Gold instead of the
Silver & Black don't ya think?
