Trent Baalke’s daughter tells 49ers OC Greg Roman to ‘take a hike’
The San Francisco 49ers are in serious danger of missing the playoffs, thanks in large part to their anemic offense. The Niners managed just three points at home against the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday and have scored 17 or fewer points in five of their last six games.
Needless to say, the seat underneath offensive coordinator Greg Roman has become incredibly warm.
And on Thursday night, the daughter of 49ers general manager Trent Baalke told Roman to “take a hike.” Here’s what Cassie Baalke tweeted before deleting it, courtesy of 49ersNews.com.
Well, this is awkward. Even if Roman knows his job is in jeopardy, a simple tweet from a GM’s daughter can easily create some tension around the team facility. Cassie, a freshman in college, followed up with this.
Everyone's entitled to an opinion..sorry mine doesn't favor you or agree with yours

Niners CEO Jed York also took to Twitter after the game, but he had a different message after his team’s 19-3 loss.
Thank you #49ersfaithful for coming out strong tonight. This performance wasn't acceptable. I apologize for that

If the 49ers miss the playoffs, no one would be surprised if the team cleaned house. The tension that exists between Jim Harbaugh and the team is already well-documented. Roman’s job is probably less secure than Harbaugh’s.
