Dear Friends,

I have been asked many questions about the stadium announcement. Hopefully this will answer most of your questions. Sorry for not reaching out to everyone personally. This decision was extremely difficult for my family to make. We would love to have a new stadium in San Francisco, but we do not think it is realistic to open a new stadium in the next few years and deliver the desired game day experience in San Francisco. We are open to options the city may have, but we also have a responsibility to our fans to build a new stadium. Monster Park is the oldest stadium in the NFL (that has not been renovated), and will not be suitable for our fans much longer. I attached our press release for more detail if anyone is interested.

Keeping the 49ers in the Bay Area is essential. We have looked at many sites, but the one in Santa Clara is the best option to date. There is sufficient space for tailgate parties and numerous public transportation options for fans. There are close to 40,000 parking spaces within a 15 minute walk of the stadium site; there is a light rail and commuter rail that could bring tens of thousands of fans to Santa Clara from all over the Bay Area (as far away as Sacramento). Not only is all of the infrastructure and transportation already in place, but we will not have to put our fans in a construction site for any period of time. These are just a few of the reasons why the fan experience in Santa Clara would be ideal. For those of you that don't know Bay Area geography, Santa Clara is 35 miles south of Candlestick Point. We are also working under the assumption that there will be no impact on Santa Clara's general fund or an increase in taxes.

I feel we have addressed 2 major concerns: changing the name San Francisco 49ers and moving to LA. Let me reiterate that we will not move the team outside of the Bay Area and we will remain the San Francisco 49ers.

The worst part of the last few days was listening to our fans boo my parents as we honored Jerry Rice yesterday at halftime. There is no way I will allow such obstacles to keep me from achieving my goals. I can promise you I will do everything I can to make the 49ers the best team in professional sports. The 49ers will have a new stadium in the Bay Area soon. We will also win a lot of football games and start competing for the Super Bowl.

Best,
Jed

Now fans, if you have an owner that is hated, taken your team down the toilet, has done nothing to bring the team up to code, should he be saying anything? Should he be saying how 'disappointed' he is that people boo him, and then he sticks his nose up and says that 'he's moving the team?' Well, duh, win games. Beat big teams. Take the team to where it was before the Salary Crap, before the realignment, before this crappy schedule, and before these God awful draft choices. Maybe to some this is a time traveling rant, but this is who the team was before the Yorks. We won. We worked hard. We played with class. We made the game enjoyable. We had a faithful fanbase. Now thanks to the Yorks, we got no fanbase. I still await the year the 49ers start blacking out because the stadium is not filled. Opposing fans frequent our stadium.

I got no faith that the Yorks will not be seeking a move to Los ANgeles. THey will end up moving the team to LA. THe YOrks are *******s none deserving of managing a good team, and not only would I boo at John York, I'd kick him in the nuts for what he's done to this team.

For you Jed Boy, and screw your letter!

You are obviously very mentally disturbed. All teams dont stay on top forever you idiot. Havent you ever heard of old age and players retiring? That what happens, plus you add FA on top of it and thats how teams have to turn to rebuilding. We have a young core of talent here, one of the youngest teams in the league. Have some ****ing patience and enjoy the building process, it will be coming sooner than we are all expecting my friend.

How is this an alleged explanation? Do you know what the definition of the term "Alleged" is?

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(steadypimpin @ Nov 21st ) [snapback]1791209[/snapback]</div>Good teams don't take 7 years to rebuild as the 49ers have done. ARizona has been going on for like what, 15 years to be at .500? Ever since Browns got started up again in Cleveland, same old stuff from them. Raiders have been playing like Raiders.

I've heard of all the garbage you're spewing about FA, players retiring, blah blah blah. AT LEAST A TEAM REPLACES THE PLAYER WHO LEAVES! Steve Young leaves, who did we get? Garbage man Garcia. Jerry RIce leaves, got a selfish player in Owens who didn't give a ****. Then we got B Lloyd, he didn't care. We got nobody in Secondary to play like ROnnie Lott did, or Eric Wright. We got nobody on Dline playing like a 4-3. If you want to accept continued failings on the 49ers, that's your business. LEast property can be fixed a lot faster then a team, and it doesn't take a year to do so either.

YOu keep making assumptions on my life, I'm going to start reporting you. THis is not the political name calling site.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(VDavis85n'ufsaid @ Nov 21st ) [snapback]1791953[/snapback]</div>Numbnutts, is it ok if I call you numbnutts? Owens was not T.O. until he became known as one of the best receivers in the league, up to that point he was a good oyung talent that worked hard and made plays, then hi head got big and we traded him away. We could not afford to keep Rice, and Rice was not ready to stop playing, his heart stayed in SF, but he kept playing in other places even though he was aged. Lloyd had potential but he had a douchebag in Erickson trying to coach him, he was overrated, but was drafted as a number 2 or 3 receiver and ended up being number 1 because of Erickson. I am not saying York is doing a good job, he isnt. DeBartalo is the one that f-ed the franchise for a while putting us in salary cap hell, making it hard to get highly paid players. The Ronnie Lott idea is interesting because there are very few players in teh league that play like Ronnie Lott, its not like there is 3 or 4 in every draft class. Before we build a secondary we have to build a pass rush, which is looking increasingly better with some young players. You being a carpenter or whatever you are should know that you have to start with a foundation. Everything, whether it is on offense or defense relies on the strength of the line, and builds around that. Also, it is hard to compare us now with the great franchise years, as the only coach around now close to the caliber of Bill Walsh is Bellichek. Nolan is a decent coach, im not going to call him a good coach until he has us in te playoffs this year or next year, he is definately better than Erickson though.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(******* @ Nov 21st ) [snapback]1792070[/snapback]</div>Is it OK if I call you Dip**** since I call LTF Learn to ****? I know Owens was a good WR, but look what happened at the end? That's why I called him that name because he left the team in a selfish matter and kept us in the toilet. If a player had to leave for whatever reason, a new player should be ready to go. Well in the case of Owens leaving, we had nobody on WR to pick up the slack. As for Jerry Rice, I still feel he should've retired as a Raider for I never forgave him for abandoning our team.

From what I have seen in several different teams winning a Superbowl: I see 4 in the 4-3 rushing the QB. I see LBs hurling themselves to stop big plays. I see Secondary doing everything to stop big plays. I see young QBs trying out there, and being protected by a good line/ I See trying WRs. I see good running game. Do I see any of that on the 49ers to get us to the Superbowl? No. Maybe there's some life, but it's not there if you can't beat the likes of the Eagles. I don't see any pass rush on our front 4. It's like only B Young can play out there, the others are like out to lunch. NEver mind mentioning DOugles or Issac, they remind me of Carter and Engelberger. They should be working harder to get to the QB or generate a rush, they don't provide either. D SMith can't rush the QB and neither can Ulbrich. Spencer and Harris are OK at Secondary, but what about the Safeties out there? Even if our CB is doing a job, the others are not doing theirs. Smith needs bigger numbers, but I still think he's doing better then last year, but I still feel the numbers are too low to establish something.

It's inexcusable not to have a pass rush for 7 years. The problems on the team should've been fixed last year, not in the middle of the season. Real teams fix problems within 4 years, not 7.

As for the moving, I can officially put the blame on the city of SF. I was so insulted by what they want to do for the 49ers. It's a sick joke that the city insists on this garage and only have 3500 tailgating out of 9000 or so that park there. It's a joke they think that the train and bus will help out, when it'll just be packed like a sardine and getting to the games late. If this is the appreciation Twosome Newsome has for our 49ers, I'm glad now we're moving to Santa Clara. I hope Newsome loses by a landslide next year.
