OT: Catering to millennials, 49'ers limit meetings to 30 minutes and give smartphone breaks.
This change could never have occurred under Harbaugh, so I'm sure Alex Boone is smiling. Interesting how rather than trying to improve young player attention span, or heavens, demand full attention for the huge dollars they pay, the 49'ers assume they can't handle meetings longer than 30 minutes. This is actually kind of an insult rather than accomodation.
On the other hand, I wish my work meetings had 30 minute limits so maybe this is ahead of the curve...

The good 'ol days also included no air conditioning. Got it.
Society has come a long way. It's always the most recent generation that gets poopoo'ed.
Also, the following changes were not published.
- No yelling
- No contact during practices
- No mandatory practices or meetings before 11am or after 2pm
- 2% milk in all cafeterias
