Golden Nuggets: Ready to lose my voice

by James Brady on Dec 11, 2009 3:00 AM PST in 49ers Links

Morning, everyone. I'm back, for the second day in a row which means I'm obviously on a roll. No but seriously, I shouldn't be missing any more of these. As for what I've been gone for, make sure you're on here today at 7 AM PT for my post. That being said, I'm not sure what I've got for you today in the way of links. I imagine there aren't too many but hopefully some previews will be rolling in. As always I'll be at the game Monday Night, and I'm really hoping the 49ers pull a win out for me because it's absolutely the worst two hour drive back, with likely an hour added onto that considering it's Monday Night Football and therefore traffic will be killer. I'd like it if someone told me once again that if I lose my voice the 49ers will win because they're 2-0 when people tell me that and I'd like to take a chance and risk that record again. Still, we've still got a couple days of links until then so why don't I just get to what I've got for you on the day, mmkay?

Does anybody want to discuss the stadium

There is a lot of talk today about the Niners\Raiders project.

I have to say, as much as I am dying for this stadium to go through, I think I would rather play at the outdated stick for 10 more years than share a stadium with Raider fans.
I used to not understand the concerns about traffic and this stadium, but that was before I realized it would be Raider fan traffic!! yikes!!

Also, I can perfectly understand people not wanting Raider fans driving around their neighborhoods.

The Raiders talk hasn't been going on for awhile...

right? I don’t know, I figured that was old news at this point. If the Santa Clara was built, it would be solely for the 49ers, wouldn’t it? I personally would hate to see that happen and I thought the talk of it died down some time ago.

You can never resist the game... nor could I... we're the same, so don't even try.

not recently Raiders talk has resumed

I have heard from two separate sources that the 49ers 1) do not have the financing 2) have not specified their financing in the plans already approved, other than what they are asking from Santa Clara

I'll wait for Jaws diagnosis until after the MNF...

He says it’s been improved, but I think Jaws might just be nitpicking. We’ve seen accuracy ratings approaching 70% (which is darn good) over the past three games. You don’t throw 70% because there’s something fundamentally wrong that can’t be fixed.
