NFL Asks 49ers, Raiders To Share Stadium 

Post#1 » by HMFFL » Sun Jan 25, 2009 11:48 pm

With both teams failing to find new stadiums in a rough economic climate, the NFL is asking the 49ers and Raiders to discuss joining forces to construct a new shared venue.

"The NFL has encouraged us to explore the possibility of a two-team facility to address the economics of building a new stadium," 49ers president Jed York said in an interview this week. "I think it's important you look at all of your options. If that's a possibility, that's certainly something we'll explore."

Seeing the youtube videos of raider & 9er fans fighting each other a lot. And reading the sfgate sites of people of both frisco & oakland hating each other....it wouldn't work. Frisco fans/people don't wanna step foot in Oakland & vice versa. But I never been to Oakland Alameda County Coliseum, so I don't know how the stadium is needing repair wise. Right now, the Raiders don't need a new stadium. They need a new owner 1st. They need to keep drafting needs to improve themselves like they did last year. 1st time since god knows when[drafting needs].
