IF IT COMES DOWN TO IT, WOULD YOU SHARE THE NEW STADIUM W/ THE RAIDERS ?

Absolutely. Simply the best business decision there is. Everybody wins. Santa Clara gets a ton of revenue, Raiders get a place to play and the Niners get a stadium of their own creation that is close to 80% of their fan base for a fraction of the original cost. And the fan bases won't interact with each other.

Any other argument is simply based in emotion, lacking reason. This isn't 4th grade. Get over it.

Do it.

Raiders should head on down to The Southland. We like having The Bay Area to ourselves. Really does make a whole lot of sense. They have already 'done time' down there and I have no doubt that they would be welcomed back. They can't sell out a game to save their lives up here.
just about a done deal i believe, Raiders to Los angeles 2012. Lock it!
IF it happens. keep the seats red.
At the end of raider games, they need to start playing Randy Newman's " I Love LA" ! would be so awesome!!

It won't ever happen, cause the stadium lease/license will be under the York Family's name, which means Al Davis would have to pay the 49ers to play there (and Davis would rather go back to L.A. and make a bid at their new stadium instead of share the bay with his corporate rival).

Actually, Al Davis brokered the deal for the DeBartolo's to buy the 49ers back in the 70's. They had a pretty good relationship.

Does it really matter?

I just want my team to stay in the BA and have a new stadium.

If that means sharing with the raiders, I couldn't care less.

Do you think Jets and Giants fans care?

I live in NY and yes Giant fans care that the Jets fans are in their stadium now. Jets fans are trashy like raider fans and I expect the same reaction from Niner fans if this happens.

Not that I'm for using all caps, but I fail to see why people consider that yelling. Its just words on a screen--nothing to get worked up over and certainly nothing to call someone out for.
Yes I would say share the stadium so its used throughout the season.
The Raiders finally admit its a "possibility"

#MarkDavis admits the #Raiders playing in Santa Clara is a possibility

This is b******t. If they were going to come on board, maybe we could have built a better stadium. f**k those losers.
