Later that year the Giants won the NFL title. Happened again in 1938. And 1956. I was hoping to find a year when both New York Giants teams had won but I guess that never happened. ; )notacynichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01402993156690698642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8886554326940043996.post-8964813046728265952013-01-21T04:53:12.770-05:002013-01-21T04:53:12.770-05:00Another one. ; )Another one. ; )notacynichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01402993156690698642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8886554326940043996.post-236616154650574622013-01-21T04:51:21.716-05:002013-01-21T04:51:21.716-05:00I just thought of 1970 Orioles and 1970 Baltimore ...I just thought of 1970 Orioles and 1970 Baltimore Colts too. Had both championships at the same time.

I guess the Jets/Mets one is the only one in same year....but in your example of Giants/49ers the baseball team won first, so it wouldn't be the same calendar year.

But by that time the Chiefs had won SB IV.) ; )notacynichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01402993156690698642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8886554326940043996.post-23550372935545232882013-01-19T18:09:56.731-05:002013-01-19T18:09:56.731-05:00I agree with your picks and think San Francisco is...I agree with your picks and think San Francisco is going to wind up with the NFL title to go with the World Series rings.
