The troubling thing here is the bulk of a team's value is derived from its stadium deal and merchandising. The latter is remedied by winning, which ensures that people aren't embarrassed to wear your gear in public. The Yorks finally got this and the Niners should start moving Ls into the Ws column soon. But the stadium situation is dire. I'm the last person to wish well for the Yorks, but my fear is that some predator from down south will swoop in and take this team to LA. And if you as one of The Faithful aren't worried about that, you are a fool. While Gavin Newsom tends to his hair, the stadium is sinking into the Bay along with any hope of building a better facility.
I'll say this once: the City of San Francisco does not deserve its NFL team. The team belongs to the Bay Area, with the fan base largely in the North and South Bay regions. Residents of the City of San Francisco are satisfied to eat garlic fries while vacantly staring at a pitiful baseball team in a gem of a stadium. To be fair the Giants ponied up their own money, but that has forced them to make a deal with the Devil to keep butts in the seats, pay down their debt, and force their fans to cheer for a complete ass that detests them. The Niners do not deserve the same fate. I'll save my full tirade on the stadium situation for the bye week, but needless to say this pisses me off. Unforgivable.

You are a complete jackass the niners ain't going nowhere you doubt the faith of the san franciscoiets. I am a native san franciscan from the begining. Remember when the Giants were going to Florida?? Ohh yes SF money stepped up and said no no you aint going nowhere and they havent done shit for sf but lose in the world series. The Niners are the best nfl franchise period. You think the money in the bay doesnt match LA? Well I say you are mistaken my friend! And whoever read this dont believe a word he said its Blasphemy!
Blasphemy is the defamation of the name of one or more gods. The Niners are GODS in SF!
Dino in SF!
Dino- If you would actually read the post, I said I don't want them to move. Hence you are the jackass. Jackass.
The rest of the Bay is saying SHOW US THE MONEY! That's what it's going to take to keep the team where it is. Plus cleaning up Bayview. Plus getting Newsom to stop fixing his hair/doing blow/banging his friend's wife for long enough to actually move this process forward. Try making all that happen Sancho.
I'd love to see this team stay in SF, but frankly, I could care less as long as they're in the Bay.
