SF is definitely not down with sharing a stadium with OAK.

Actually, they are.

It's been the Raiders who have been less interested (actually Al Davis appeared to have been okay with sharing, but he wanted the stadium in Oakland, not Santa Clara, where the 49ers are planning to move).

According to this PFT article below, Mark Davis Al's son was more inclined to sharing a stadium with the Niners, but there are MANY obstacles ahead including city (OAK or Santa Clara) and the stadium's color scheme among others. SF doesn't seem too interested with sharing a stadium. BTW, Right on with the DD defeatist take.

Once again, if you want people in the seats, put a product on the field that is worth watching.  Sunday was flat out embarrassing!  Couldn't even beat a team that alway finds the banana peel.

So let it be written. So let it be done. Shahid Khan is one of the 4 horsemen of the move to LA apocalypse.

I'm inclined to believe that Los Angeles will score either the Chargers, or more likely the Raiders, long before any serious talk of a Jaguars move takes place again. Two teams in L.A. is a pipe dream that I can't imagine ever becoming a reality.

Also, LA is on the clock.

33 days left to find a team, or else this thread is A LIE.

Exactly! The last statment Goddell made about LA that he was not happy at all with the progress, nor was he did not favor niether of the stadium deals. The whole LA thing is almost a wrap ladies and gentlemen. Its time to lock this thread also.
Jaguars 2.0

It's been 50 pages and well over two years.

Might as well see it through until December 31st at midnight, declare it a LIE, and then shut it down for factual inaccuracy :D

That said, until L.A. finds a team or every one of our games is a sellout, the story isn't dying.

Alot of teams are not selling out games are they moving also?

It's actually kind of funny to go back and read the original article. 

The whole premise was based on the stadium being completed in 2011.  They don't even have an approved design. 

Much ado about nothing.
A common mistake people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

Looks like most want it gone... consider it done!
In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."
