In the interest of perspective, let's give a concerted shoutout to three NorCal quarterbacks in the NFL's version of the Final Four: Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers and a newcomer to the post-season fiesta, Josh Allen. One might argue with the inclusion of the Firebaugh Flash due to the limitations of geography. But, if you study a map of the Golden State with care, you will note that, yes, the tiny farming hamlet of Firebaugh is 60 or so miles directly east of Hollister. If Hollister is a NorCal entity, then Firebaugh, Allen's hometown, has to lie in the northern half of the state as well. In that case, only Patrick Mahomes hails from outside NorCal. Hey, three out of four ain't bad. We'll take credit wherever we can get it.
