Good idea. If it's that important, beer sales shouldn't interfere. I like it.Originally posted by Jcool:Originally posted by susweel:Originally posted by Jcool:Guess it wasnt quite unanimously.
Jed is a coward. Have an opinion one way or the other.
In this video, @JedYork says @49ers will close concession sales during the anthem as part of a broader approach. "I don't think we should profit during the national anthem if we're going to ask people to be respectful."https://t.co/6DhJ4AWwAM

Jed can do nothing right in some people's eyes. Some will always find a way to nitpick and it's rather ridiculous. Can we give it a rest already?

They will just be swigging the beer they already bought. Such an empty, meaningless gesture ultimately. Totally PC driven.

Jed is a cuck. Of course he abstained.
Jed stated his opinion loud and clear by abstaining.
He does not agree with the decision, but knew he couldn't do anything about it so chose not to fight an unwinnable fight. Who here would support him if he did?
Suspensions would be harsher, the refs would give us less, we'd get less compensation, what's the point.

Kinda like the NFL's vote to penalize players over kneeling during a song.

49ers CEO @JedYork was the only person to not vote for the new anthem policy. He abstained. What kind of weight will that carry with his players. I asked @RSherman_25, who said: "It carries a lot of weight and we respect the hell out of him for it."

Clearly not as "meaningless" to the players as some here claim it is to them, personally.

It's also been reported by Steve Wyche that York didn't vote "no" because the NFLPA was not represented and that he didn't feel comfortable saying outright "no" when the NFLPA had not been formally presented with the proposal when the vote took place. In other words, he may have assumed the NFLPA would be opposed to this proposal, but he couldn't know that for sure, because he's not a mind reader. Therefore, he abstained.

Yup, terrible situation, but i think its being handled as best as possible. Whatever happens, Jed, John, and Kyle are in it together, which is actually good. It means they are communicating and working through it together.
Good thing Jed doesn't have to deal with dumbf**k personalities like Trent Baalkaca and Jim HarBoneHead
I hope he's learned his lesson for sure. If all three stay on the same page, and Jed stay out of football at all times, I think the team will be fine. With Reuben back on the team, we'll have a good shot at winning at least 10 games and maybe get into the playoffs.

I'm sure he feels he's standing up for his players, and he probably believes in the cause to be sure, but I'm sure a large factor that went into his decision has to do with business. His team resides in probably the most progressive region of the country, and he may have realized that a yes vote may cost him money and may hurt his image with a large constituent of fans, while the opposite is most likely true among other owners in other parts of the country.
