Three weeks ago, the San Francisco 49ers honored former owner Eddie DeBartolo, holding the official Hall of Fame ring presentation at halftime of the team’s Week 11 loss to the New England Patriots. Prior to the game, DeBartolo spoke with media on hand for the game, discussing a whole host of topics. And apparently he left one Bay Area columnist with the impression that change could be afoot amidst the 49ers struggles.
The past few days, Jason La Canfora reported and reiterated that John and Denise York were looking to make significant changes, potentially bringing in a “football czar” to run the football side of the team.
