Mad props to Jed. A franchise cannot achieve success, especially not long term, without solid ownership.

He hasn't done s**t.
I'm counting Lombardis and I only count five....which his uncle won all of them.
I'll send my gratitude if he ever wins one.

Jed York stayed his course when Me, you, and the NFL world was chastising his actions after he announced the firing of Dingleberry and the pending search for GM/HC.

He got it right the 3rd time. There are teams who have ownership families who never get it right in decades of trying.
I for one thank Jed York. Because of him my every day is a bit brighter, my mood is a bit lighter, my pride in being a die hard Niners fan never stronger, my enjoyment in this entire process unprecedented (I started loving the Niners in the mid 80's), a flood of great memories all tied to a period in which the Niners were an annual powerhouse, revisited.
Personally, I am confident Harbaugh is a special coach. He is a franchise changing coach. Maybe I am setting myself up for a hard hard slap of reality, but what he's done in the last 3-4 months is nothing short of miraculous, and it's that short body of work that I hang my confidence in Harbaugh on.
I believe the Niners are on the cusp of another era of winning football, and all thanks to Jed York.
Thank you Jed.
You are misinformed as/are were many fans. Jed was not responsible for the problems in the begining, lets get the record straight. It was his father and mother who knew nothing and hired Nolan and Singletary and the regimes previous. Although he was president and annoounced Mikes hiring, if you researched it you will see that he (Scott McC-the GM) consulted with the family - meaning mom and dad and not Jed. Jed was just president in name because he was newly appointed.
It was not till the parents finally relented total control to the son and I mean total control. He did it right the first time, hire the right people, from Baalke, to Gideon to Paraag and get out of the way except to ask what do they need.
I do not blame the son for the sins of the father, I also thought many fans were quick to judge him, because jealous people judged him more as a kid born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He grew up around the franchise and showed smarts when he reached out to his uncle eddie for support and advice. People were quick to judge his hiring of Baalke as GM. Imagine if he and his family listened to some of the fans and sold out, the niners wouldn't be where they are at right now.
Thank goodness he is not like Jerry Jones or Dan Snyder. Yet makes bold moves and sticks to his plan.

I am not misinformed about anything. You sir misread/misunderstood my post. I am very clear on the timeline and what has transpired. I was referencing Jeds proclamation that the GM search would be wide spread and then he went in house. The one and only mistake Jed has made so far was Dingleberry, which was his decision, but it led to Harbaugh so if can be forgiven as rookie mistake.
Other than that one small mistake Jed has owned the NFL/local politicians/organizational structure. I am a huge fan.

Thank you Jed for making up for the transgressions of your idiot father and mother... seriously what NFL team charges players for GATORADE. Jed had the opportunity to learn what not to do from his dad, and lean on his uncle as an advisor.
It's also telling that Jed has the right mind for the new NFL... think about the outsiders he hired, specifically Paraage Marathe who has kept this team loaded with talent and favorable contracts. Add in his confidence in Baalke to be able to land Harbaugh, just watch out. Baalkes draft stockpiling, we have a QB whisperer as a coach, and an amazing coaching staff. This success is sustainable, while other teams up north cough*seahawks are going all out for big FA's which will come crashing down in a couple of years. It's a GREAT time to be a niner fan.
