Let me Tell You a Story About a Man Named Jed…

Dec 14, 2007 30 Comments by Niner Pundit

 Update: Chronicle is retracting the Dr. York is stepping aside. So who knows what the hell is going on.

 John York steps aside.

The 49ers made major changes to their front office structure Friday, hiring former A’s executive and Memphis Grizzlies President Andy Dolich as their new chief operating officer.

In addition, team owner John York is stepping aside from much of the day-to-day operation of the franchise, sources within the organization said, and will hand off those duties to son Jed, who has been taking a lead role in the 49ers’ negotiations for a new stadium in either Santa Clara or San Francisco.

The 49ers are planning a 1:30 p.m. announcement about the changes in the organization.

    Cracks widen in Nolan regime

    Even a full-scale earthquake couldn’t make the situation in San Francisco any shakier than it is at the moment. The way we hear it, the absolute last thing that the Niners’ ownership wants at present is to launch beleaguered head coach Mike Nolan and undergo another major front-office restructuring. But word is they just might not have a choice, with the fans and local media turning up the heat big-time in the wake of the latest highly public rift between Nolan and QB Alex Smith. In a Dec. 11 story in the San Jose Mercury News, Smith accused his head coach of trying to “undermine” him in the locker room. For the second time in the last couple of weeks, both Smith and Nolan publicly said they had healed their fragile relationship after meeting with one another, but team sources fear the damage in that relationship might be irreparable. In the meantime, cries for Nolan’s dismissal are mounting, and while it’s hard to know what exactly is going through the minds of John York and Denise DeBartolo York these days, we do know that they both pay very close attention to what’s being written in the local papers and talked about on the local airwaves day in and day out. Will the Yorks eventually cave in to growing public pressure? According to a growing number of sources close to the scene, it really is starting to look that way.

    Sell the team, the Niner’s have sucked ass since these fools have owned them. I don’t care what players we have, or who coaches them, the Niner’s will not contend as long as these fools own them.

  5. AXEGRINDER says:

    Damn right.

  6. Jason says:

    Sell the team to Steven Young, someone who really cares about bringing the team back to glory

  7. desert9er says:

    No, sell the team to Larry Ellison.

  8. Self Scientific says:

    Who gives a rats ass who buys the team, Santa Claus could but the team and I still guarantee they will be better then they are now.

  9. Big M says:

    Sell the team to Flavor Flav

  10. AXEGRINDER says:

    Sell the team to my ASS.

    York did spend the $ this year we r in the top 5 teams in payroll right now. Everyone was on the Nolan bandwagon in the begining of the season even I was so I dont think this is an who owns the team thing as it is who is the coach. Nolan has really worn out his welcome here and its time for him to go bye bye. Bring in Parcells either as coach or as GM.

  17. AM says:

    Patriotsfan, with the amount of talent on your team, its amazing that you have to pay the refs for wins (ravens game) and take videos of other team’s coaches to keep winning. If you like being undefeated by cheating, thats great. There is no pride in that….

  18. donkydick says:

    Watch The Bengals to throw the ball right away to kill us from the get go.how many points do you think we will score in the first half?i say 10.how about you guys?

  21. unknown niner says:

    Hi Pats190 I will laugh my ass off if you lose your first game in the playoffs after all of the hype! LMAO

  22. mike says:

    hill just thrown 100yards 1st Q 1 touchdown
    NOLAN common man did you not see these potential QB starring uuuuuu daily at practise
    we couldve been play off bound with this kid…..

  23. unknown niner says:

    Shaun Hill looks really good. I think this is the first time this team has scored a first quarter touchdown!

  24. AM says:

    Shaun Hill for president!!! Wow.

  25. Bob In Pacifica says:

    Wow. 149 yards, a passing TD and and running TD, AND A LEAD!!!

    Smith’s contract is going to keep him there at least another year, but can anyone give me a reason why Dilfer is needed anymore? And remember, Hill’s index finger on his throwing hand is broken. I haven’t seen a Niner quarterback so cool in the pocket since Montana. Not comparing him to Montana, but the guy is cool. Like Montana.

    This is the best, smoothest offense the Niners have had all year. Hill throws in places where the receivers can catch, and often in stride. Gore hasn’t been all that dominating, but at the end of the half those three yard gains were becoming eight yard gains. If the defense can keep track of those Bengal wide receivers they actually have a chance. I never thought I’d say that this year.

  26. Bob In Pacifica says:

    We need a pick on this series. That’s the ticket.

  27. Bob In Pacifica says:

    Looks like Clements just won the match.
