He represented great value to the YORKIES. Instead of paying $5 - $6 MILLION they got a bargain basement value HC. That's what they always seek. Good value rather than a great coach with experience. Plus they didn't have to go through the TEDIUS interview process of looking at 3, 5, 7 candidates and narrowing it down which is stressful and time consuming. The YORKIES have been mailing it in for years. They don't try. That should be obvious by now.
1) Great Value (CHEAP).
2) Don't have to go through the tedius interview process (too much work).
Plus we have JED "Silver Spoon" YORKIE who is a 27 year old Billionaires kid who ZERO experience at anything in life. He is completely overmatched and overwhelmed. Singletary probably gave him one good speech or said some motivational words about Vernon Davis and Spoon gave him the job.
Our organization is a joke. Probably only the Raiders and Lions are worse.
I find it amusing that it seems just me and San Diego 49er are the only ones calling the Yorkies out as cheap skates. I wonder where all the York haters went after DumpYork.com stop being maintained? I think I am the only one who came here.
I find it amusing that you are agreeing with a troll that said only the Raiders and the Lions have a worse organization than us. I can name quite a few off the top of my head. Rams, Seahawks, Browns (Holmgren hasn't proven anything yet), Chiefs, Buccs and I'm sure there are more.
I can't believe I'm seeing so much complaining after Sing took us to our first non losing season in 7 years. Also, take a look around the NFL and you'll realize the 49ers are on the way up, not stuck in the dregs anymore like all the teams I listed above.
Please add Washington to this this as they and the Raiders have to suck the most. You also can not call the Yorks Cheap as they have doled out lots of Rookie money and Fa money. updated the practice facilitys and if not for some crack smokers in SF politics would probably have a stadium on the build.
I agree. Calling the Yorks "cheap" is no longer an excuse. They may not throw nonsensical amounts of cash out there but they've certainly shown they're willing to spend in the past couple years. Maybe if this conversation had taken place a few years ago, I would agree that they are cheap. In terms of the present, that's not the issue.
As for SanDiego49er, he should change his name to SanDiegoCharger because this guy slams the Niners more than anyone I've seen. I'm critical and all but if you told this guy the sky was blue he'd give you 1,000 reasons why it's orange.
Personally, I continue to support Singletary. This was his first full season and he's dealing with (IMO) a sub-par QB and OC. HOWEVER, for the sake of continuity and a lack of better options, we need to stick with the QB and OC and I think we'll get far enough to make the playoffs next season.
