anti-virus

I didn’t get anything saying it was a dangerous site (using my Mac, I get a website warning). It’s just a wordpress article.

I didn't have any problems with it.

They absolutely should share.

It’s completely ridiculous economically and environmentally for the teams to each build separate venues.

Stadium

I’d much prefer a shared stadium. If a team can lessen their costs on the new stadium, that’s less revenue going towards that and conceivably more revenue towards signing bonuses, scouting, etc.

The original basic agreement the 49ers signed a year or two ago with Santa Clara includes an option to sublease to another football team (the Raiders most would assume), so this isn’t quite the breaking story.

I see the tides have turned.

A year ago people were just pissed about moving to Santa Clara, and the idea of sharing a stadium with the Raiders was a whole level of evil above that.

I’m glad to see the idea is gaining support among fans. It makes way too much financial sense to let a half-comical rivalry get in the way.

If we can make the Cowboys travel 1,500 miles for all their home games, I say we do it.

Initially,

I was against sharing a stadium with Oakland, but it is what it is: We NEED (not want) a new stadium. If going half-zies with the Raiders speeds up the process, I’m all for it. December 2006, Green Bay at San Francisco, sitting lower level just under the edge of the 2nd level awning. Every 10 seconds or so, an identical patch of dust would fall right on my lap. That was 5 seasons ago!
