Ric Flair gives 49ers pep talk before Packers game (Video)
By Mike Dyce
The San Francisco 49ers are taking on the Green Bay Packers Sunday in the Wild Card round of the NFL Playoffs. We’ve seen teams bring in linebacker Ray Lewis for a pep talk, but the 49ers looked to the WWE for inspiration bringing in legend and 16-time Heavyweight Champion of the World Ric Flair for a pre-game speech.
