On October 18, Lisa DeBartolo, the daughter of former San Francisco 49ers owner Eddie DeBartolo, seemed to
voice her opinion regarding Jed York's reign as team CEO.
What does she think about a hat that reads, "Make Eddie owner again," across the front? "Love that," Lisa responded via Twitter.
While she may simply love the color of hat or perhaps the font used in the text, it certainly comes off as another small jab at current team ownership.
Lisa DeBartolo is the Vice President/Assistant Secretary of the DeBartolo Family Foundation and she is becoming more and more loved among the Niner Faithful who agree with her.
She made headlines earlier when she Tweeted out a couple of articles that didn't exactly make the 49ers organization look good. The
first was an article by Lowell Cohn of the
Press Democrat that places all of the blame for the 49ers' current predicament on current CEO Jed York, the nephew of Eddie DeBartolo. Lisa called the article, "Interesting."
The second article was from the
San Francisco Chronicle, written by Ann Killion, and entitled,
"Losing has become 49ers' new normal."

49ers considered trading Mike McGlinchey last year
Mike McGlinchey received a life-changing payday, signing a five-year, $87.5 million deal with the Denver Broncos. The offensive tackle has known for a while that he would not return to the San Francisco 49ers, the only NFL team he has played for and the one that made him the No. 9 overall pick in 2018.
General manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan made it clear to McGlinchey that he was likely playing his final months for the team. There was too much money invested in other spots, and the 49ers knew they couldn't compete with other interested teams.
Behind the scenes, Lynch and Shanahan kept McGlinchey in the loop of what the team was thinking, and everything pointed to the tackle playing elsewhere in 2023 … maybe even
Photo: Recovering 49ers QB Brock Purdy spotted by fan
Brock Purdy can begin throwing again sometime in June. The San Francisco 49ers quarterback is expected to be ready to hit the field—practice or in-game—sometime in September.
Purdy is recovering from surgery to repair the tear of the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) in his right elbow, an injury sustained in the NFC Championship Game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
