Nine satirical classified ads, three columns, all team-specific. FOR SALE. WANTED. LOST & FOUND. HELP WANTED. ANNOUNCEMENT. NOTICE. PERSONALS. OBITUARIES. The CONTACT line is always the punchline. Always.
The 49ers led the Chiefs in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl LVIII. The Chiefs tied it. Overtime was played. Patrick Mahomes drove the length of the field. The Chiefs won 25–22. The 49ers have now lost the Super Bowl three times in franchise history. Three of those losses involved Patrick Mahomes.
The 49ers last won the Super Bowl following the 1994 season. They have appeared three more times since — after the 2019, 2022, and 2023 seasons — and lost all three. K. Shanahan has been to three Super Bowls as coordinator or head coach. He has won zero. The plan is excellent. The Lombardi Trophy has not accepted any of its receipts.
Following Super Bowl LVIII, the 49ers went 6–11 in 2024 — the worst record by any team coming off a Super Bowl loss since the 2003 Oakland Raiders. McCaffrey played four games. Aiyuk, Mason, and Williams all went to injured reserve. The 49ers then went 12–5 in 2025. The bounce-back has been documented.
Purdy led the 49ers to a 12–5 record in 2025 and an upset wild-card win over the defending-champion Eagles. He then faced the top-seeded Seahawks in the divisional round and lost 6–41 — the 49ers’ second-worst postseason loss in franchise history. He had a remarkable regular season. He had a difficult January.
The 49ers announce that a 12–5 record, a wild-card win over the defending NFC champions, and a McCaffrey/Kittle/Warner/Bosa roster constitute a foundation. The 41–6 divisional loss to Seattle has been reviewed. K. Shanahan has reviewed it. The Faithful have been informed that the review’s conclusions will be implemented.
Available as a complete unit: a 12–5 regular season, a divisional win over Green Bay, an NFC Championship win over Detroit 34–31, and a Super Bowl LVIII overtime loss to Kansas City 22–25. Buyer receives all components. The Lombardi is not included. The Lombardi went with Kansas City. The Chiefs had it the previous year too.
The 49ers formally notify the NFC West that the 2025 season produced a 12–5 record, an upset wild-card win over the Eagles, and a 41–6 divisional loss to Seattle. The Rams have Stafford and Garrett. The Seahawks are the defending champions. The 49ers are returning McCaffrey, Kittle, Bosa, and Warner. Both things are simultaneously true.
The Faithful, lifelong, Santa Clara and beyond. Have watched the 49ers lose the Super Bowl after the 2019, 2022, and 2023 seasons. Have watched a 6–11 injury year in 2024. Have watched a 12–5 bounce-back and a wild-card upset in 2025. Have McCaffrey, Kittle, Bosa, Warner, and Purdy. Won five Super Bowls before the losing streak began. Are ready for the sixth win.
Passed in Seattle, January 2026, by a score of 41–6 in the divisional round against the eventual Super Bowl champions. It had gone 12–5. It had upset the defending NFC champions in the wild card. It ended by 35 points in January. It is survived by K. Shanahan, who has reviewed the film, and the Faithful, who were there for all 17 games regardless.
A full team-specific Top Ten list. Completely deadpan. Treats every item with total journalistic seriousness. The list below is a sample. Yours will be specific to your team’s particular situation, history, and ongoing triumphs and disasters.
Seven team-specific fake eBay listings, ready to go every cycle, styled exactly like the real site — photo, description, seller, and current bid. The items are always something your team has misplaced, squandered, or never possessed. Reserve has not been met, and never may be met.
One team-specific Outer Limits Enquirer front page, every cycle. Completely straight-faced. It sells itself — that’s how funny it is.
Four new proposed NFL rules, each presented with complete regulatory seriousness. The title is always “THE NFL COMPETITION COMMITTEE PROPOSES:” followed by the rule name. Three to five sentences of deadpan satire. A new batch of four rules, every seven-week cycle.
Effective immediately, any player who is visibly sad after a penalty will be allowed to challenge the call on emotional grounds. The replay official will review the player’s expression in slow motion. If certified “genuinely devastated” by a panel of three therapists stationed in the press box, the penalty is waived. The Dallas Cowboys have already filed 847 pre-season challenges.
Starting in 2026, head coaches will be required to answer one post-game question with complete honesty. The question will be selected at random by a wheel spin. Early testing was abandoned after three coaches resigned, one cried, and Bill Belichick’s honest answer was legally classified as a threat.
In an effort to make fumbles less discouraging, any fumble recovered by the opposing team will now be referred to as an “unintentional lateral.” The player who fumbled will receive a certificate of effort. The team that recovered it will receive six points. Both outcomes will be celebrated equally on the official broadcast.
All play-by-play announcers will now be graded in real time by a panel of former players. Phrases such as “he just wanted it more,” “that’s a football player right there,” and “you cannot teach that” will trigger an automatic fine of $500 per occurrence. Early projections suggest the league will be debt-free by Week 3.
A fully illustrated satirical children’s book, team-specific, written for the fan who has a child who needs to understand why Sunday afternoons are like this. The illustrations are beautiful. The subject matter is not. Both things are intentional.
