They are moving down the road I guess.

They are also saying the team will still be names the San Fransisco 49ers.

The plan to build a stadium also included public housing...

Oh GREAT...sure to guarantee that in 20 years they will need ANOTHER stadium...as I can guarantee that the public housing will be a slum by then!

49ers | Team planning to move away from San Francisco
Thu, 9 Nov 2006 00:35:30 -0800

ESPN.com reports the San Francisco 49ers have ended negotiations with the city of San Francisco about building a new stadium. The team plans to move to either Santa Clara or somewhere else in California, according to reports. 49ers owner John York notified Mayor Gavin Newsom of the team's decision earlier Wednesday, Nov. 8. Newsom's spokesman Peter Ragone told the San Francisco Chronicle, "We're disappointed, but we're not planning on mortgaging the future for a deal." York was evasive with the Chronicle tried to reach him, but he told the paper he would elaborate on the team's future plans Thursday, Nov. 9.

Unfortunately, I went to the game last Sunday.
Candlestick Park is a DUMP!
It is by far the worst stadium I have ever been to.
The Stadium is in disrepair, the parking is horrible, and the freeway access is terrible as well.

That stadium needs to be bulldozed.
Personally, I would like to see that team go to Los Angeles so I wont have to keep hearing about the Vikes going to SoCal.
The thought of SoCal Hoodlums "taking over" my team would piss me off!...ie, RaiDuh Nation!

Looks like this will take the Vikings off the list to move to LA.

Great news.
Hopefully, now everyone will stop talking about the Vikings moving.

I was talking to a friend of the ballboy's nephew's uncle's second cousin's wife's daughter's best friend's lover and she was saying that she was talking to Foley's ex-lover's mother's husband's college buddy and he said that he heard that Zygii will move the Vikings if the new stadium deal isn't in place soon.

Damn it!
Then it MUST be true!
