So the 49ers paid a great coach, got immediate results and went to the NFC Championship 3 years in a row and the Superbowl once.
Which created great buzz and demand for 49er tickets. And which also helped sell seat licences and seasons tickets at exorbitant prices. But as soon as the stadium was done, the coach was undermined and fired, and the new head coach, who is has been a line coach on the team for 7 years is now one of the lowest paid head coaches.
It seems like now that the York family has its stadium and locked in revenue stream for a few years, they are returning to their miserly ways. I had hoped Jeb would follow in the shoes of Eddie D. Instead there appears to be another stretch of stupidity to be endured.
