Reports are flying around about the disappointment in the CEO of the 49ers, one Sir Jed Hides-a-lot, is getting his once-shiny, and now mangled and tattered, toy taken away from him. Jason La Canfora, and now Ted Robinson, have come out and stated that Jed will be de-frocked a la Game of Thrones, and lose his title of CEO as the team hires a real live football guy to take over.
No insight here other than it only took Dr. Kedorkian 7 years to take unadulterated shit flung at him by an angry fan base to move his fledgling stooge into his spot as lead crap-catcher. Well, 9 years of varying levels of a short amount of success followed by a dismantling of any and all talent and a revolving door coaching staff has led to 1-12.
Hmm. Maybe it’s time to hire people that now and understand the game. Not projectionists and contract massagers. The talk is our once and future OC, Kinda Milquetoast Mad Mike Shananahan will come on as Exec of football ops, and his son Krazy Kyle will fill the GM role or some shit.
Can’t say I’m enamored with the prospect, but Jesus Christ, this would be worlds better than the shitshow we are currently participating in . . .
Stay tuned . . .
Forty Niners Forever 
i was all for giving kelly a break but then i saw that he doesn’t want to play Ponder because “This isn’t open tryouts right now”. really? what the f is it then? it’s not winning football. it’s not going to BE winning football, so what the f do you have to lose? freaking baffling. and my favorite CK, “We have to create a culture of winning by any means. Right now our culture isn’t that.” you’ve been the STARTING QB for years now. who the f is to blame for not having the right culture if not for your lack of credible leadership. but go on, take a freaking knee. Maybe someone else will solve the leadership void that you’re partly responsible for.
btw, just now had time to listen to “skating away . . .”. Great track. the JT live album was incredible. when it came out in the late 70’s, my guy i studied with and i would have it on when we were doing electrical engineering homework. neither of us could make hide nor hair out of it until we put the tape (yes, tape. I bootlegged it off of a NY radio station). then it all made sense. extremely weird but that’s a true story. alas, they didn’t allow us to blast JT during the tests. needless to say, i took my D and moved on.
the guy, not MY guy.
Bursting out is great. I saw a few shows around that time.
Wow. Say what you will about Cam Newton, but Roger Goodell hates him. DB leads with his helmet and Newton takes a shot to the head, and gets called for taunting.
Wisco, I didn’t see the Ponder comments by Chipper. Ludicrous. He’s coaching like he won’t be here next season. Another coach getting fat and happy off of Jed York and Trent Baalks’s incompetence.
it was in the chron today. a sort of sidebar. made me a crazy person. what the f are you doing if you’re not looking at who can help next season. see steve young’s comments: “everyone out to the parking lot . . .”
Kelly has no fire. The guy is just going about his business like everything is fine; we’re losing by 20 or 30 points every week but no biggie.
I hate Chip.
Winners are not comfortable with losing. Kelly has already shown me he is. As far as I am concerned, he’s just wasting our time here until he gets fired.
Add to that sentiment too Grump, he knows the York’s are paying another dismissed HC to fish.
He, (Chip) knows full well he’s going to get paid to lose, or to fish.
Win/Win for the Chipster.
Baalke will be sacrificed as this year’s Annual Offering, to mask the inept practices of the York Empire.
I’m just praying that they don’t reach for a QB in April with Pick 1, simply because Chip is likely going to have his legacy attached to the position.
If I were a Kamikaze-minded individual, I’d target the Owners’ Box with said winged projectile and spare the legacy attached to all of us, who are suffering with this clown show.
Well we have reached the point wheee no one survives this. Kelly’s action speaks that he ain’t coming back. Good to see you Eric.
I’d sell tge stadium to Prince Valiant at 50 on the dollar and go back to Hunters Point in my dream scenario.
Okay the season is over. The coaches know it. Playing Ponder is fruitless. The next coach can worry about who plays what position. Kelly probably knows his fate and Baalke knows the drill too. You lose bad things happen. As bad as Kap is that’s all the Niners really have at the position of QB. With all the injuries perhaps another two losses are in the works anyway. It’s too late to get worked up over this season. The players have quit not because of the coach but they know most of their fates lie elsewhere. The fans have quit for sure by the empty seats.
New thread is up . . .
And there was much rejoicing
