It's too much of a thing to ignore now, even if there is no direct effect that belief that there is is enough to move. Imagine a couple of the players die from cancer in a few years, could be some lawsuits and horrendous press for both. Get it moved, sooner the better.
This is likely not true, unless there is a house full of people on cell phones with multiple routers and smart appliances. Read the post I did earlier on how much the power was increased at the substation in 2013 in prep for supplying Levi's stadium and the surrounding businesses. Prior to the upgrade in the substation the Niners were among the most healthy teams i the league. From 2014 they became one of the most injured a trend that continues to this day. What changed...The substation massive upgrade. I also made a post on this earlier.

Basically a big red herring...our training staff just needs to be better and we need some luck to avoid the major injuries which aren't soft tissue based.

This is a stupid topic for 2 reasons. One is it hasn't been proven to be an issue even after they had studies done. Two is there's nothng that can be done about it if it is an issue. At least not right away. They're apparantly considering a new facility in another location because they need an upgrade with more space. If they move and the injuries continue (they will) fans will find something else to blame.

Next, run a big investigation on the invisible pixies that made Roman call 3 straight fades to Crabtree.

Wow, I haven't watched the video yet (and probably won't), but it seems like it's a serious issue if they're investigating it. York needs to do something.

Is there a lake nearby they can build a training facility at? A fresh body of water nearby is therapeutic. Paul Allen spared no expense. Seahawks used to practice at EWU where Kupp and Bourne played ball near Spokane before Allen bought the team and built the VMAC and what a huge difference it made in team performance. Is Shaver Lake a cool spot to build one? I know Lombardi is always up there during his broadcast a lot of the time. Worth looking into though not sure how deep Jed's pockets are

Shaver lake is near Fresno which is quite a ways fro Santa Clara. To far and it's over 100 degrees there nearly every day in the summer.

This may contribute to something. But I still think the biggest issue is the training staff. I have been chastised for it on here but they've never made major changes to the head of that staff other than promoting him more. Firing trainers underneath him but never getting rid of the main man running the team strength and conditioning. I still think that is our biggest issue something needs to change with how our team does its strength and conditioning programs.

my take, it's the nfl. guys are putting maximal pressure on their body. violent cuts with cleats as hard as humanly possible. it's like mlb pitchers trying to throw harder than ever, more spin than ever you will have blow outs. it's every team, we aren't special we just think we are hit hard as we follow all the 49er injuries and not the injuries of other teams. also we build our team a certain way for example, seattle didn't have charbonnet the whole playoffs, they had k9. that's two B grade solid backs, so one goes out the other goes in. meanwhile, we have a grade A back and if he exits we are toast. lot of guys we can't replace off the bench like cmc, bosa, fred, trent, evans, kittle, etc

Lol you know they have actual data on injuries? It's not every team or bc we don't focus on other teams injuries.
