No, telling the truth to your fanbase that just shelled out a bunch of money for your seats in a stadium to support a team that just fired the coach that has had you winning for the first time since Siefert.

Yup, and that's because that's what that franchise is in reality; a losing one. Sure, they'll catch lightening in a bottle and pretend that winning matters to get a stadium or the bottom line begins to take a hit, but that's it. They are the Mariners.
What the 49ers we're in the 80's and 90's the Seahawks are now. And, what the Seahawks we're in the 90's, the 49ers are now.
He's a bumbling boob, Marvin, period. I'm not even counting firing Harbs against him, it was the way he handled it. It sends a bad message...such a bad message a lot of the coaching fraternity that cant stand Jim actually rallied behind him. Think about that, NFL's coaches rallied around a dude that they kind of hated.
Sugarcoat it all you want, but they are the Mariners. In Seattle we had a really good glimpse into dysfunctional franchises. So, as shock G said "game recognize game". Or, I can go Denny Green; "York is who I thought he was and Marvin let him off the hook..."?

You're not tall enough. I mean....neither am I, but since I came up with the comparison, I can do whatever I bloody well like.

My assumption is that behind closed doors Harbaugh was verbally abusive to many and damaged some relationships beyond repair. We see how he is on the sideline, why would we think he'd be any different behind closed doors? This would explain why Jed York can't say anything, because being frank about it could get him sued. The truth will be out soon enough anyway, via ESPN reporter leaks.
That's not to acquit Baalke. Baalke probably thinks the 49ers success is all about him, and that was likely the main source of friction.
Respectfully disagree. Great coaches are very hard to find. I think we'll soon find out that Harbaugh was by far the most valuable entity in that entire organization.seahawk12thman":hrx1hy8l said:kear ly":hrx1hy8l said:The winning with class line was a big mistake and the interviewer jumped all over it without hesitation.

Right or wrong Jed York is clearly happy and satisfied with the personnel decisions that Baalke has made as GM. If there is friction between the head coach and GM most presidents are going to stick by the GM if they're satisfied with personal decisions made because it's very easy to find a coach that can motivate these players; it's not so easy to find a GM that can make great personnel decisions. in fairness, we will have to wait a couple weeks for the details to come out.
