maybe it would be better if you spent your time avoiding the post you feel are not new, Rather than replying and causing them to stay at the top

Calm down.
Your original post needs more thought. What parts need throwing away and what parts should be kept? Be more specific if you want others to understand what you are arguing.
On the other point, don't be so thin skinned. They were having a laugh. Why take it personally?

Refurbished: 49ers
I fill like the 49ers as of Right now are a refurbished team, our organization has tried to fix the broken parts for years now an from the outside perspective things have looked good but in the inside those old parts are still broken and decrepit.
New: Chiefs
I believe the Chiefs did it the right way.they through away the old losing staff and players and purchased the new winning staff and personal and although they are not as good as they could be, The evidence of there change is displayed on the field of play.
Our problems have nothing to do with our head coach or Alex Smith they never have and never will. This has always been about cutting corners and trying to save money in any form or fashion. Our ownership is willing to lose on the field if that means winning at the bank!
I hope that this off season includes TNT because the demolition needs to begin asap.
Bullsh!t.
I am sooooooo sick of peeps talking about the money.
The Yorks had issues with the money in the beginning, but nothing they have done is SEVERAL years says they are motivated by the money. They paid to get rifd of coaches and GMs, they have signed high priced free agents, and they have signed THEIR OWN free agents early to big contracts.
GET OVER IT.
They have made some bad decisions, no doubt, but I have ZERO questions about Jed Yorks desire to get this right. People remember Eddie D for all he did, and he deserves the praise...but they forget how many times he got it WRONG before he hired Walsh.
Be patient, I think Jed will eventually get this right.

Didn't you know that unless your amount of posts is higher then 10,000 your opinions are wrong? And also, every thread should get locked. Why? Because no matter how big of a fan you are, you haven't posted here enough times.

Yes, Jed is calling the shots.

generally speaking, refurbished products are supposed to be within the same functionality of a new product.
The niners look more like a heavily used hand me down at this point.

OK,
Instead of speaking in generalities, give me an example of being cheap since Jed has been in the building.
All I've seen is a team willing to spend on Free Agents (nate Clements, Justin Smith), paid to get rid of GMs and coaches when it wasn't working (Donahue, Erickson), resigned their own players early to keep them happy (Frank Gore, Patrick Willis, Vernon Davis), and completely upgraded teh training faciltiy on 4949 Centential Blvd.
The only places where you can even make that complaint is coaching, but I don't think money was the issue in hiring Singletary. I think Jed fell prey to thinking they could make it work based on the late season improvement in Sings first year.
So...I've given you specifics. Give me some that say they've been cheap since Jeds been there.

Better question, what HAS he done to give you the impression that it has changed? It may be a coincidence but he had 2 1st rounders and used them both on the cheapest position. And unless he's been drinking that Alex kool-aid, he should've spent some money and gotten a QB. Yeah they've spent money, but I guarantee you it's alot less then 75% of the winning teams!
