 Oakland Raiders
Santa Clara, Calif., native Steve Lee may want to stay inside for the next couple of days. Lee, who is the president of the neighborhood association nearest to the likely site of the San Francisco 49ers new stadium, was interviewed by the Mercury News on Monday. The topic: The possibility of the Oakland Raiders joining in on the stadium financing...
What's the buzz about?

its the only logic option, but Logic hasn't been Als stronguit the last 10 years.

take a look at the pictures, further down the link.. their stadium changes color regarding who has the homefield... very cool, ive been there myself once...

Another example, two of the greatest rivalries in sports is AC Milan vs FC Inter, both share San Siro in the heart of Milano... their feuds cant be compared to anything in the NFL...

Whats my point? if two soccer clubs that REALLY HATE eachother can share stadium, then it should be possible in the bay area as well

Young 27 year old Mr. York credits Al Davis with helping his Grandfather buy the 49ers in the 70's. The franchises have worked well together over the years, which, includes building a strong rivalry to generate profits. That said, I read in the Sacramento Bee 1.6 billion dollar stadium in Santa Clara, but with 20 weeks of football the neighborhood could now become against the traffic.

Makes too much sense for Al to do it! Nuff said!
