But, and it pains me to say it, I'm sorta glad they lost because it really lays bare the fact that Singletary is not cut out to be a head coach, and the Yorks are the worst owners in football. Yes, even worse than Al Davis. They won't sell, but at least this will likely force them to fire Singletary.
Agreed about Singletary. His temper tantrums on the sideline have gotten downright embarrassing, and he's even getting called out on it by commentators at this point.
Disagree about the Yorks though. Jed and John have both been willing to spend, Jed has done what John couldn't with the stadium, and Jed doesn't seem to have the worst problem of bad owners: meddling on football operations.
It's clear we haven't been winning with the Yorks, but I don't think they're an intractable problem like Al Davis is (being solely responsible for the Raiders horrible drafts, being such a liability to work with that coaches won't go there, being incapable of solving his own stadium problems in Oakland).
