When asked why he wouldnt be fired the 49ers owner gives a simple response
The pre s conference owner and CEO Jed York held Monday in Santa Clara to got pretty heated pretty quickly. Multiple reporters questioned York's ability to lead the 49ers moving forward. One reporter asked why York believed he was competent enough to lead the search for a new head coach and GM.The first exchange came on just the second pre s question of the pre s conference. Reporter: Jed, why are you competent to lead a search for a general manager and po sibly a head coach too?Jed York: Look, nothing I'm going to say is going to be a Calle Rosen Kids Jersey satisfactory answer. We need to make sure that our succe s speaks for itself. Our actions have to speak for itself. I've done it before. We've put together a team that's had three NFC Championship runs. That was in the past. I can't live on the past. I need to make sure anything I do is backed up by the results on the field.That's a step around a pretty aggre sive question. But the line of questioning didn't get any easier, with one reporter interrupting the 49ers owner and questioning why he hadn't . Reporter 2: You dismi sed your general manager and coach because they didn't reach certain Philipp Grubauer Women Jersey performance standards.Jed York: That's part of it.Reporter 2: Why shouldn't you be dismi sed or rea signed for the same reasons? Andrei Mironov Women Jersey Jed York: Again, nothing I'm going to say is going to be satisf--Reporter 2: Say something.Jed York: Well nothing I'm going to say is going to be satisfactory. Again, we'll be judged on what we do and what we accomplish. We haven't accomplished enough. I own this football team. You don't dismi s owners.I'm sorry that's the facts in the case, but that's the facts. This was a mic drop moment, although York kept talking about accountability, etc. The "you can't hide money" answer is beautiful, though. "Reporter 2" came back at York later, asking him if he was "connected" enough (or basically saying he connected enough) in order to find the help he needs to hire a quality GM and coach. It was all very condescending and not in the way you expect when a bunch of people are talking to a billionaire owner of a football team. This is T.J. Tynan Women Jersey not di similar to what happened to about -- and "Reporter 2" sounds very much like the reporter haranguing Kelly about his quarterback's actions.Someone else -- -- asked York about Jim Harbaugh and making a mistake when the 49ers decided to part ways with the current Michigan coach, who had great succe s as the 49ers coach. York wasn't interested in answering whether he regretted the move."I can't look backwards," York said. "It's easy to play Erik Johnson Jersey revisionist history. I'm not going to play that game." Which, as my wife pointed out while watching the pre ser, basically is "yes." The whole thing was a lot like the 49ers last two seasons: just a big, old awkward me s. Don't expect the pre s corps to lighten up on the owner until there's someone reputable involved in the search and/or hired to run the team.
