Yes, 1995. They beat the Cowgirls to get there I believe. . .  :yes:

An they're the only team who has been to the big dance more than once that has won every time they've been there.  They've been there five times, and they are 5-0 in Super Bowl appearances.

Jan. 15, 1995 Candlestick Park
49ers 38, Cowboys 28
Finally, they conquered the Cowboys (sound familiar?). The 49ers, after falling to Dallas in each of the two previous conference title games, jumped to an early 21-0 lead and then held off persistent Cowboys threats. San Francisco's defense surrendered gobs of yardage (451 in all) but forced five Dallas turnovers, including three Troy Aikman interceptions. Steve Young threw two touchdown passes, ran for another score and created an enduring image when he took several exuberant victory laps after the game.
Jan. 11, 1998 Candlestick Park
Packers 23, 49ers 10
Steve Mariucci's first season as the 49ers' head coach - mostly successful, after a 13-3 regular season and 38-22 divisional playoff win over Minnesota - ended with a whimper. The 49ers managed only 33 yards rushing and scored no offensive touchdowns in falling to Brett Favre and the Packers. Green Bay built a 13-3 halftime lead and stretched it to 23-3 before the 49ers finally reached the end zone on Chuck Levy's late, meaningless 95-yard kickoff return. In the Super Bowl, the Packers lost to John Elway and the Broncos.
Jan. 22, 2012 Candlestick Park
Giants 20, 49ers 17 (OT)
Roger Craig, meet Kyle Williams. The 49ers, trying to return to the Super Bowl for the first time in 17 years, led 14-10 early in the fourth quarter. That's when Williams nearly picked up a New York punt, backed away and let the ball glance off his knee. It was recovered by New York. The Giants soon scored, on a touchdown catch by Mario Manningham, to move ahead 17-14. David Akers' subsequent field goal sent the game into overtime, but Williams fumbled on a punt return and the Giants recovered. Lawrence Tynes then kicked a 31-yard field goal to secure Williams' dubious place in 49ers' playoff lore.

They are currently tied with the Dallas Cowboys for the second-most Super Bowl wins with 5 (the Pittsburgh Steelers have 6);(though the Green Bay Packers,Chicago Bears and New York Giants have more total NFL league championships). The 49ers remain the only team in NFL history to appear in more than one Super Bowl without ever losing.

I think fate may have something to say about that never losing in the big show streak though. . .  :yes:

Moving on. . .

I think the only way Baltimore beats the Cheaters is via breaking Brady's leg. . .

I have a real problem with Ray Lewis -- not his play; his personal life.

Me too.  I hate Tom Brady pretty bad too though.  ;D

At least he hasn't shot anyone.

Only figuratively, anyway.

Yeah. It is starting to look like Crabtree is no angel either. . . but the jury is still out on that one. . .

If Baltimore wins without breaking one of Brady's appendages, I believe it is only because the NFL wants to see a replacement for the Manning bowl; the Harbaugh bowl. (Y predicted the Harbaugh bowl several weeks ago.)
