It is amazing how much the Bay Airheads have their knickers in a twist over the 40-whiners moving about 25 miles down the peninsula to Santa Clara. Just think, in 6 years, if you want to go see a 49ers game, you can:

1) Take a commuter train from downtown San Francisco that I guarantee will take you within walking distance of the new stadium, or

2) Have your choice of about 4 or 5 nice big freeways to get to the stadium from most other parts of the Bay Area, with multiple entrances in a relatively safe area of town.

Now, your public transportation consist of taking a bus that crawls with all of the traffic on, essentially, ONE road leading to the stadium, unless you want to chance driving through the projects. And Lord have mercy on your soul if you get lost in those same projects AFTER the game.

And people think that the Giants left the 'Stick just because of the wind and fog there in the summer! If you go to the area around AT&T Park in SF, there are lots of restaurants that have sprung up in the neighborhood, Muni runs trolleys (which hook up almost seemlessly to BART) that stop right in front of the stadium, and for those coming up from the south, there is an exit from the main freeway within a few minutes of the parking.
