SANTA CLARA–Recently San Francisco Chronicle writer Scott Ostler was writing about the speculation of the 49ers ownership of Jed York and his family in putting up the team on the auction block. The headline read “Should the 49ers go on the auction block?” It should be know that Ostler doesn’t write the headlines for the Sporting Green either.

When people saw the headline and read the article the headline became the news piece and people kind of ran with it and they thought “hey the Niners are up for sale that would be awesome” that’s not the case, they’re not up for sale, Ostler was just suggesting that York had not done a particularly good job in running this team.

One of the solutions in getting the Yorks and the family and Jed in particular is to get him away from the spotlight and getting him away from all the criticism is to sell off the team and here’s why it could happen. York wouldn’t say it will happen, he didn’t say it’s in the process of happening, it just ain’t.
