San Francisco 49ers, National Football League – CBS SportsLine.com:

The San Francisco 49ers ended negotiations with the city about building a new stadium and plan to move to either Santa Clara or somewhere else in California, the Associated Press learned Wednesday night.

Owner John York notified Mayor Gavin Newsom of the team’s decision earlier Wednesday, a city official close to the negotiations told the AP on condition of anonymity because no announcement had been made.

well, well. Interesting.

May the speculation begin. The santa clara property (Hiway 237 and Zanker) once proposed for the Giants is still viable, but the same traffic problems exist (or at least, the perception of traffic problems persist….). Bay Meadows? I believe it’s gone. Where else?
