        CONGRATULATING TWO GREAT FOOTBALL TEAMS FROM CALIFORNIA

  (Ms. PELOSI asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Ms. PELOSI. Mr. Speaker, I want to congratulate the Chargers and my 
colleague, all of my colleagues, from San Diego.
  We are very proud in California of two great teams.
  The gentleman from California [Mr. Cunningham] is a good sport. I 
waited awhile for him to pay off on this debt. His ``the chips are on 
their way'' became like ``the check is in the mail.'' You know, the 
Super Bowl has been over awhile, and I thought that as to this 
concession he was waiting for Michael Huffington to concede before he 
conceded the Super Bowl loss.
  In any event, he is a great Californian, a great sport. I thank him 
for that.
  I also will have to say how proud I am of the San Francisco 49ers, 
owner Eddie DeBartolo, president Carmen Policy, you know, quarterback 
Steve Young, Jerry Rice, Rickey Waters, and the list goes on and on.
  It was a great Super Bowl. We are very proud. Five trips to the Super 
Bowl for the 49ers, five championships, five world championships.
  Go '9ers.
