Milwaukee, Wisconsin

The 1982 event, also known as Cold Sunday, featured temperatures as low as -40°F (-40°C) in some of the suburbs as little as 10 miles (16km) to the north of Milwaukee, although the city itself did not approach such cold temperatures.

Also, the relative humidity in the summer is far higher than that of comparable cities at the same latitude, meaning that it feels hotter than it really is. Cornerbacks.

Milwaukee's proximity to Lake Michigan causes a convection current to form mid-afternoon, resulting in the so-called lake effect, causing the temperatures to be warmer in the winter, and cooler in the summer ("cooler by the lake" is practically boilerplate language for local meteorologists during the summer).

The revelation led to Reynolds being fired from his position, and sparked harsh condemnation of the club from the local media, who instantly dubbed the scandal "Videogate." Ironically, the story broke on the same day that the identity of "Deep Throat" from the Watergate scandal was made public (the 49ers story receiving priority over it in the San Francisco Chronicle) — and even more ironically, an anonymous source (widely thought to be recently-fired 49ers general manager Terry Donahue) "leaked" the story by sending a copy of the video to the media.

The video contained unflattering stereotypical characterizations of numerous ethnic and other groups, including Chinese-Americans, lesbians, strippers and homeless persons — and worse yet, was meant to be used for "sensitivity training" purposes. 12.00% of the population are Hispanic or Latino of any race. On May 31, 2005, it became public knowledge that a controversial video production, intended to be viewed by the players only, had been made the previous August under the supervision of the team's public relations director, Kirk Reynolds, who also appeared prominently in it.

It was a pick predicted by many, though some had the 49ers selecting local product Aaron Rodgers of the University of California, Berkeley.

The population density is 2,399.5/km² (6,214.3 per square mile). In his inaugural draft as head coach, Mike Nolan selected with the first pick of the draft quarterback Alex Smith of the University of Utah.

Other large population groups include Polish (12.7%), Irish (10%), English (5.1%), Italian (4.4%), French (3.9%), and Hispanic origin totaled 6.3%. After an extensive coaching search, the 49ers announced the hiring of Mike Nolan, former defensive coordinator of the Baltimore Ravens as their head coach to lead the team into the 2005 season. In the 2000 census, over a third (38 percent) of Milwaukeeans reported that they were of German descent. The 49ers would finish that season with a record of 2-14, their second consecutive losing season (and finishing last in the NFC West for the first time since 1979, ending what had been the NFL's longest active streak for not finishing in last place in a division), with the worst record in the NFL for the season, which secured them the first crack at the first round pick in the spring NFL draft, and also resulted in the firing of head coach Erickson and GM Terry Donahue.

The total area is 0.88% water. Larry Ellison and former quarterback Steve Young have been the names most commonly rumored as potential buyers. 248.8 km² (96.1 square miles) of it is land and 2.2 km² (0.9 mi²) of it is water. During the 2004 season, rumors that the Yorks might sell the team began spreading. According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 251.0 km² (96.9 square miles).

The last shutout had been 27 years ago in 1977 — they were defeated 7-0 by Atlanta at what was then known as Candlestick Park.

Milwaukee lies along the shores of Lake Michigan near the meeting points of three rivers: the Menomonee, the Kinnickinnic and the Milwaukee. On September 26, 2004, the Niners were shut out 34-0 by the Seattle Seahawks, their first such loss in 420 regular season and 36 playoff games, a league record. Milwaukee's downtown area is about 90 miles north of the Chicago Loop. Although they finished the 2003 season with a losing record of 7-9, Erickson was retained as coach for the 2004 season. Smaller festivals througout the year celebrate the city's German, Native American, African-American, Italian, Irish, Asian, French and Polish heritage. The period since the 2001 season has been disastrous for San Francisco, hampered by injuries and poor defense. Listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the largest music festival in the world, Summerfest attracts around 900,000 visitors a year to its twelve stages. Following the season, Steve Mariucci, the coach, was fired and replaced by Dennis Erickson.

Milwaukee has advertised itself as the "City of Festivals," especially emphasizing an annual fair along the lakefront called Summerfest. This would be, to date, the last post-season appearance for the 49ers. It is also home to a number of professional sports teams including:. They lost their subsequent game to the eventual Super Bowl Champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Milwaukee is home to the Florentine Opera, the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, the Milwaukee Ballet, Milwaukee Repertory Theatre, Skylight Opera Theatre, and a number of other arts organizations. In 2002 they produced the second greatest comeback in NFL playoff history by coming back from a 24 point deficit (38-14) and winning 39-38 against the New York Giants behind amazing games by then 49ers Jeff Garcia and Terrell Owens. The Milwaukee Public Museum and Milwaukee County Zoo are also notable public attractions. As a part of the fallout, he transferred controlling interest in the team to his sister and brother-in-law, Denise and John York.

The museum includes a "brise soleil," a moving sunscreen that quite literally unfolds like the wing of a bird. DeBartolo later pleaded guilty to a failure to report a felony charge. Milwaukee's most visually prominent cultural attraction is the Milwaukee Art Museum, and especially its new $100 million wing designed by Santiago Calatrava in his first American commission. In the late 1990s Eddie DeBartolo was involved in a corruption investigation regarding Louisiana Governor Edwin Edwards and one of his Mississippi riverboat casinos. Milwaukee also has a large number of financial service firms, particularly those specializing in mutual funds, and a disproportionate number of publishing and printing companies. That has led to some of their stars finishing up their careers with other teams. Among these are Briggs & Stratton, Harley-Davidson, Johnson Controls, Manpower Inc., Marshall & Ilsley, Northwestern Mutual, Rockwell Automation, Roundy's and Wisconsin Energy. There are many others as the team has had a policy of releasing star players a year too early rather than a year too late.

Milwaukee's reputation as a blue collar town is more accurate, however, with 22 percent of the workforce involved in manufacturing -- second only to San Jose, CA and far higher than the national average of 16.5%. Service and managerial jobs are the fastest growing segments of the Milwaukee economy, and healthcare makes up 27% of all service jobs in the city.

A replica of his tiny log cabin is in the same park.) German immigrants helped increase the city's population during the 1840s and the following decades. Milwaukee still today has a large German-American population. During that decade, the team neglected to make the playoffs only twice — in 1980, and again in the strike-shortened 1982 season which saw them go 0-5 at home and 3-1 on the road — the only time in NFL history that a team went winless at home while winning more than half its away games in the same season.

The 49ers won five Super Bowls, four in the 1980s, and are considered The Team of the Eighties (the team had never won an NFL or Super Bowl championship prior, and had never even won a division title until 1970). Juneau was Milwaukee's first mayor. It is the only name the team has been affiliated with and San Francisco is the only city in which it has resided.

In 1846, Juneau's town combined with neighboring rival towns (Kilbourn Town and Walker's Point) to incorporate the city of Milwaukee. The team earned its name from the surge of goldminers to the San Francisco area during 1849, thus the nickname the San Francisco 49ers. In 1818, Frenchman Solomon Juneau settled in the area. Juneau bought out his father-in-law's trading business, and in 1833 he founded a town on the east side of the Milwaukee River. The San Francisco 49ers have the distinction of being the first major-league professional sports franchise on the West Coast. The 49ers entered professional football in 1946 and matured, nationally and locally, when the club was granted a National League franchise in 1950. French missionaries and traders passed through the area in the late 1600s and 1700s. The team's headquarters and practice facility are located in Santa Clara, California.
