I agree with your assessment of the Raiders. Yeah, the earlier
possibility was floated by Jed York, when my previous city of Santa
Clara began to have doubts about the viability of such a small town
shouldering such a burden. I think Monster Truck Rallies were
mentioned too.

Fleetwood,
I haven't heard of this rumor. IMO, the Raiders would rather move
elsewhere than share a stadium with the 49ers.
But I just read today that John Madden doesn't know what is wrong with
the team either. He stated that Jon Gruden may not be the coach who
would bring the team's glory back to Oakland.
I agree with Madden. The team needs a drastic change in football
concepts. It should hire one of the coaches from the University of
Oregon who are using the concepts pioneered by Chip Kelly, the current
coach of the Eagles in Philadelphia.
As shown by their performance, the Raiders playbook is old, stale and
hasn't kept up with the current development in football as played in
the NFL.

When the crooks and liars from the 49ers organization, we're trying
(successfully) to get Santa Clara (pop 100,000) to assume the 850M
bond for construction, and be responsible for all maintenance, and
ownership of Levi Stadium, WITHOUT receiving a penny from game
revenues, one of the fantasies floated, was the Raiders would share
the stadium - As if.

It's probably a good idea. The Raiders don't look like they're going
to win any more football games in Oakland, CA. In jyotish, this is an
indication to move to another place where the support of nature is
better for getting a more successful organization.
