The SF 49ers might be on the move. But for reals this time. While Bay Area sports teams, like 8-year-olds, like to threaten to pack up their belongings and runaway, some sort of deal was finalized yesterday with regard to the 49ers moving to Santa Clara after the team and city officials "reached a deal on how to finance the building of a new stadium."
According to AP, "the two sides agreed on a financing package for a proposed 68,500-seat stadium." Now all the move needs is a city council vote in June, some sort of green impact reports, and then a vote by Santa Claraians, which is expected to happen in March of 2010. Voters are most likely to pass the measure. Why? Because Santa Clara wants to be known for something besides....wait, what is Santa Clara known for? Nothing? Nothing at all? Exactly.
