Up on SFGate right now: Niner Fans, This is Partially on You

I have a question for the foolish faction of the 49er Faithful who finally spit out the Kool-Aid when Mike Singletary got fired last week.

Do you still want winners?

The team has now missed the playoffs for the eighth consecutive year, going 45-82 (.354) during that stretch. Despite their efforts, Patrick Willis and Frank Gore’s best years are going to waste.

Wait, I have a second question.

Do you still believe that Jed York is going to seriously consider uncle Eddie DeBartolo's blueprint on how to successfully run a professional football franchise?

With a sweetheart stadium deal in place after exploiting the residents of Santa Clara, and profit margins on the up-and-up thanks to season ticket sales and merchandising revenue, there is no incentive for the Yorks to change their ways.

And with in-house Trent Baalke all but a formality to be hired as the new general manager (and on the cheap, might I add), I think I can tell you their next move.
