I have a coworker who's a 49ers fan and we of course talk a lot about football, especially since the rivalry between our teams heated up back in 2012. He's a very reasonable fan and we both agree that while those 5 trophies they won in the past are pretty cool, he would gladly trade all those for a win now. More so because he's young and does not have many memories of that.
However, this does not seem to be a popular idea in the 49ers.com message boards.
There is a thread there about the Seahawks and I posted that while I respect their glorious past, I would trade all those trophies for a win now. I didn't get much support for my opinion from their fans, which was expected. I was even called a clown by a fellow Seahawks fan (maybe seeking approval from that board), for expressing such opinion.
What do you guys think? 5 trophies in the past or 1 in the present?
