The last two weeks have seen interesting changes in the life of this Niners fan.  Whether or not you have noticed I have been out of the office so to speak or more correctly out of the Niner Noise web site office.  I am sure you did not notice I have been gone as the site was kept updated by Niner Noise’s talented two writers, Matt Hamm and Jared Quan.  The reason for me being away from Niner Noise is I was off getting married and on my honeymoon.  I knew what getting married entailed, one of which was not being able to watch two weeks of 49ers football because of the wedding festivities and being out of the country on a honeymoon.  Before the week five game against the Buccaneers I knew the next two games would define the 49ers for the rest of the season heading into the bye in week seven.  What I did not anticipate was the 49ers giving me a wedding gift of a 5-1 record with wins over two really good teams who are playoff caliber.  Nor did I anticipate the culture of losing for the 49ers being erased after a decade of decline with the largest margin of victory against Buccaneers since Super Bowl XXIV (1990) and one of the biggest regular season wins in recent memory against the Lions.  We have one man to thank for that, Jim Harbaugh.
