ESPN.com - NFL - 49ers to leave Candlestick, turn focus to Santa Clara (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2654743)

Interesting.

So they'll be known as the San Francisco 49ers of Santa Clara?




Stupid MLB Angels team...

The name is staying the same and the new stadium negotiations are finally moving in the right directions. Good news to me...

Yeah Santa Clara is only 30 minutes away from SF.

The Giants and Jets play in Jersey

The Cowboys play in Irving and will play in Arlington soon, even further away from Dallas

You guys play in Maryland

The Cards play in Glendale (and play in University of Phoenix Stadium, saying it because it makes me laugh)

Pretty normal these days.

i wonder why the folks in S.F. built the giants a new stadium before building the niners one?i hate the niners,always have.but
i can't think of another team in the league that deserves a new stadium,especially when you look at how big the 49er fan base seems to be.i also think that 49ers fans are almost as crazy about them,as we are for the skins.they deserve a new stadium for that in itself!

The city couldn't agree on the plans with the owner, Dr. York who wants the stadium to be one of the league's largest and best, the new generation of stadiums that the Cardinals and soon the Cowboys will have. The blame falls on the city officials and the geographic difficulties of building a stadium in SF.

So York went to the Mayor of Santa Clara who's mouth is watering to get a storied franchise like the 49ers to play in his city. Negotiations will move a lot faster now and I think the target date for a new stadium to be completed is by the start of the 2012 season. Also it should be more convenient for the organization because Santa Clara is where the franchise headquarters are located.
