Fan call: The San Francisco 49ers wasted no expense or effort in their Santa Clara stadium campaign. The team was even signing up students at Santa Clara University.

But as campaign manager Ed McGovern told us, "It's one thing to sign them up - it's another to get them to actually vote."

It was a lesson learned by 49ers President Jed York when he came across a student over the weekend.

"Are you going to vote?" York asked the student.

"No, I'm a Dallas Cowboys fan," the student replied.

At which point York whipped out his cell phone, punched up Cowboys owner Jerry Jones - and had Jones explain why the guy should vote for the stadium.

And to think a lot of people here don't like the guy. Personally I like the guy and think he's really trying to return this team to the top.

I haven't "Crowned his ass", but I'll let him off the hook (smacks side of desk)

Still, you have to admit Honda, that he's definitely moving in the right direction...

...so far.

Sounds like he made the cowboys fan day by letting him talk to his favorite teams' owner.

Never been a big Jerry Jones fan but I got to give him props for the assist. Jed is impressing me more and more.
