This should be required viewing once a year. A huge thanks to Bill Walsh for the 49er dynasty. I’m fully aware of how spoiled I am due to his results - which makes me difficult to please with the modern day 49ers. I need to curb my expectations, nobody will ever match the legacy and results of Walsh.

A colleague of mine at a high-tech startup firm in Silicon Valley [California] in the 1980s . . . her husband's name was "Bill Walsh" and they resided in Menlo Park, California; with the 49ers coach Bill Walsh was living in neighboring Atherton, California. Turns out the Menlo Park 'Bill Walsh' was always getting evening phone calls from football players and coaches, as back then, the 49ers coach's home phone number [this was prior to cell-phones] was unlisted with the _directory assistance_ phone service; but the Menlo Park's Bill Walsh's home phone number was publicly listed.

I see Bill Walsh and I think of Lombardi, in one way he used to say “we will relentlessly chase perfection, knowing full well we won’t catch it, but in the process we will grasp excellence” and in another way when Lombardi was asked “has this become a game for mad men and am I the craziest one of all?”

That may be true, but it's difficult to compare any career to one in sports which is really a transitory one. It's probably not analogous. It's highly likely that while Walsh was scheming of the literal survival of his career, your boss was just a shithead.

Bill Walsh....the absolute bane of my football fandom existence as having my N.O. Saints come up short to win the NFC West Division Title in most years but actually 3 seasons where our 2nd place record would've won each of the other NFC divisions and I know certainly 2 of those seasons we failed to win division and 1 yr totally missed the post season as a Wildcard because of tie breaker scenarios. Respectively 12-4, 11-5 and 10-6 were all Saints 2nd place team records with the 10 win team home watching the playoffs instead of competing in them!!!! Especially after we SUCKED the first 20 years of the franchise and then we finally had a pulse and real hope to succeed then quickly remembered that we the Saints and Atlanta Falcons for some dumbass reason were in NFC West (Cowgirls and Cardinals fighting against division placement based on team location) yet not being remotely close to that area. Ultimately NFL smartened up a bit and placed teams in division's based on ea teams region of the country!!!!!

The thing was, Bill was correct in 1988. If they had made the KC trade they would have drafted Derrick Thomas and Michael Irvin. Book end pass rushers Charles Haley and Thomas, book end wide outs in Rice and Irvin. They probably would've gone undefeated.

Good coach ? Definitely. Great coach ? Possibly. A genius ? No. Walsh drafted Ken MacAfee, a three time All-American tight end from Notre Dame. Finished 4th in the Heisman balloting his senior year. Played tight end for the 49ers for two seasons and Walsh tried to make him an offensive guard. MacAfee instead retired from football and went to dental school. A genius wouldn't have tried to move MacAfee to a completely different position.
