Its, unfortunately for them, the second straight game weve been able to say that. If you think of all the championships that the bay area has had, it has been all the way back to the 1974 oakland as that somebody has had a chance to celebrate on a home court or home field.

Spectac spectacle. We try and we really tried this year. Reporter ray kelly says theres only so much police can do. Its almost like trying to put your finger in to try to stop the water. Its overwhelming the amount of fireworks that are out there. Reporter while theres no reports of serious injury or death, there was some destruction including a garage fire on 52nd avenue where today we found a huge pile of fireworks debris mixed with shell casings.
