Jed York said to hold him responsible. We need to do exactly that. Boycott the games. If the stadium is less than 1/2 full, and his pockets and being impacted maybe he'll get it. I personally think this roller coaster needs to end. And it needs to end with the fans showing the team that we're not going to take it anymore. We're not going to be lied to. And we're not going to watch this lousy product.

Normally, this would be the only way to effect any kind of change. It will never happen because people go to games to have a good time and be entertained. The casual fan doesn't care about boycotting and the "die hard" will continually preach about how it's about the team and not the ownership. So, nothing will change and no one will boycott.

Also, Jed's hosting a Super Bowl this year. Boycott all you want, that dude is making bank and don't give a flying fugazi what you or I think.

Lets just put it this way.. I live in Utah. And I am not paying for flights/hotels and tickets to see the 49ers anytime soon. Am I not boycotting the 49ers but I am not going out of my way to go see them.

You not paying for tickets or hotels has 0 impact on Jed's pocket book (slightly false). We have had threads like this before. The stadium is basically 100% season ticket (read PSL) holders. Tickets that will be going on sale will be secondary market, not from the 49ers themselves.

Exactly and most of the stadium vendors are private contractors who pay the 49ers a yearly fee plus a percentage of sales to have space at the stadium. If beer and hot dogs sales are 1/3 of normal the vending companies probably lose money, the Yorks still turn a profit which isn't impacted as much as you think.

Jed already got his money for this season months before the season started. And the stadium was already 1/2 full in the 4th quarter last game. So...

Nothing ever happens, as far as the Yorks are concerned the money is in the bank, stock market, off shore acounts, etc. making more money.
