At Least I Can Cross This Off My List

I've been to plenty NFL stadiums in my career with the Titans, Texans, Broncos and Falcons.

A couple more years of traveling and I could have all 32 fields marked off the list.

Today I cross off Candlestick Park.

Hope I never have to come back...

The 49ers, without question, are one of the storied franchises in professional football. Unfortunately, they got caught in the trap a few decades ago of mixed-use stadiums.

It made sense... for the time.

Now baseball's Giants have moved out and the 49ers are left with an oddly-shaped, quickly-deteriorating home.

Hopefully as the economy rebounds San Francisco (maybe with a partnership with Oakland) will get a stadium ready for prime time.

Today, let's just hope the Falcons escape with a win.
