San Francisco Still Thinks Everyone Is Impressed With iPads
San Francisco is making its final push to host Super Bowl L in 2016. The coup de grâce in this effort by the host committee was apparently mailing auto-playing iPads to all the owners in the NFL.
The Bay Area’s final bid to host the 50th Super Bowl in 2016 at the 49ers’ new Santa Clara stadium landed on the desk of the NFL’s 32 owners Wednesday
Wait, did they really send one...
Field of Jeans
First off, I can’t take credit for ‘Field of Jeans’ I believe CEO Jed York mentioned that today at the press conference between Levi’s and the 49ers.
Today, the 49ers and Levi Strauss & Co have reached a 20 year agreement on naming rights for the 49ers new stadium. The new stadium will be know as Levi’s Stadium. The 20 year deal is worth $220 million.
In a statement...

Sources Say Darelle Revis Wants To Remain With Jets
Sources close to Darrelle Revis told The Post last night that Revis wants to stay a Jet.
He wants owner Woody Johnson more than Arthur Blank of the Falcons, more than Jed York of the 49ers, more than anyone to show him the money.
He wants to remain a Jet, the source said. He has never asked to be traded.
Revis has not given up on the idea that Johnson will...

Jed York picking up where Eddie D left off
When Jed York attended his first football game at age 3, he had already developed an eye for watching the way his uncle ran the San Francisco 49ers during their glory days. Nearly three decades later, the Niners are York's team — and he is trying to build something just as special as the dynasty Eddie DeBartolo Jr. had when the franchise won five Super Bowls in as many tries.
CEO Jed York looks to lead 49ers back to greatness
A casually dressed Jed York hardly looked the part of an NFL executive and owner, wearing slightly baggy jeans, a polo shirt and sneakers for Super Bowl week.
The shoes were designer, but still.
In a matter of months, the 49ers CEO has become a first-time father, watched a new billion-dollar stadium take shape outside his office at team headquarters in Silicon Valley and seen his...
San Francisco 49ers CEO Jed York wants to retain Alex Smith
San Francisco 49ers CEO Jed York is a happy camper when it comes to his quarterback situation.
Why shouldn’t he be? It was the one-two punch of Alex Smith and Colin Kapernick that led his team to the threshold of the promised land.
Unlike others that have already stated that Smith is on the first thing smoking out of Dodge City, York is holding on to a belief that he can retain...
49ers CEO York wants to hold on to QB Smith
San Francisco 49ers CEO Jed York is hoping to keep backup quarterback Alex Smith next season despite Smith's expressed desire to move on to a team where he has a shot at being a starter. Second-year pro Colin Kaepernick replaced Smith as the 49ers starter in November and will lead the team into the Super Bowl on Sunday against Baltimore. "From a cap standpoint, we have...
49ers Owner Hopes To Keep Kaepernick And Alex Smith
Sometimes executives are the best at sugar-coating a situation and sprinkling BS on it. The San Francisco 49ers replaced quarterback Alex Smith with Colin Kaepernick, because Smith frankly had hit his ceiling.
Kaepernick has now led to Niners to a Super Bowl and Smith is looking for his immediate release. If you ask owner Jed York, he’ll say not so fast.
York dismissed Smith...
Eddie DeBartolo compares Jim Harbaugh to Bill Walsh
The San Francisco 49ers have returned to their glory days. Per usual, there stands one family that is steering the ship.
The last name may be York, but the swagger of this team reeks of one Eddie DeBartolo.

49ers' York follows advice and path of Uncle DeBartolo
Stop me if this sounds familiar: The San Francisco 49ers are rolling into the Super Bowl with a young owner, whose first couple of coaching hires were flops, who was an outsider in a city that is suspicious of outsiders, and who at times acted just a little too impetuously. Sure sounds like Eddie DeBartolo, doesn't it? Only this time it's his nephew, Jed York. It is hardly...
Niners' success led by family values
As the San Francisco 49ers lurched back Sunday in the second half of a jaw-dropping NFC Championship Game revival to an almost surreal 28-24 victory, the DeBartolo York clan -- uncle, sister, nephew ... heck, the entire huge, loving, united family -- transformed another precious Super Bowl opportunity for this hallowed NFL franchise into a Norman Rockwell portrait.
This is what...
DeBartolo planted roots for modern rise of NFL
As they prepared for Saturday night's playoff game against the Green Bay Packers, the San Francisco 49ers received news that former owner Eddie DeBartolo was among the 17 finalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame's class of 2013. And the events may not be a coincidence, as many in and around the organization believe that the 49ers recent return to glory has been due to...
Jed York, 49ers CEO, Backs Jim Harbaugh's Quarterback Decision

"I'm excited that we're leading the NFC West," York said Thursday, via CSNBayArea.com. "I'm excited that we're winning football games. This is a very difficult business to be...
QB Controversy In The Bay?
Three weeks ago, football in the Bay Area was devoid of controversy. 49ers were 6-2, and coming off a bye week, having just destroyed the Arizona Cardinals in a 24-3 victory on Monday Night Football. Alex Smith had a career day in that game, going 18 of 19 with 232 yards and 3 touchdowns. After that convincing divisional road win on national television, Super Bowl rumblings in the...
Jed York is maintaining the 49ers' fan base in a whole new way
Kathleen Russell runs a daycare business out of her Los Altos, Calif. home, so when anybody shows up unannounced, she's a little suspicious. That happened at around 4:45 Monday afternoon, when a baby-faced 30-something wearing a polo shirt and Dockers approached the house.
But the first thing the man did was assure Kathleen he wasn't a solicitor or any other type of unwanted...

49ers owner Jed York had some fun with The Handshake at a mid-week pep rally to promote Sundays Lions-49ers/Jim Schwartz-Jim Harbaugh showdown.

VIDEO: 49ers owner Jed York takes shot at Jim Schwartz over Handshake Bowl
With Jim Schwartz and Niners head coach Jim Harbaugh doing their best to downplay Sunday night’s rematch of last year’s Handshake Bowl, San Francisco owner Jed York is doing his best to add fuel to the fire.

49ers owner takes verbal shot at Lions coach
Some people just can't help themselves. They have to shake things up.
Put San Francisco 49ers owner Jed York in that category.
Although his coach, Jim Harbaugh, and Lions coach Jim Schwartz have downplayed Handshake-gate 2011 this week, York ended a 49ers pep rally Thursday afternoon with a backhanded comment directed at Schwartz.
