Still trolling 49ers fans cause the fake Seahawks fans don't quell your desire for actual football conversation.

Make threads about pre-season like they matter, you should stick to them NFC championship game trolls.

We should have created a stadium to amplify the noise so the sad ass fanbase can beat their chest over how loud they are.

Man, I could care less about the stadium I live in NY.

I been to Candlestick, and that place while nostalgic and a classic, needed to go badly.

If you give us that L in that stadium, than i`ll have some beef with it.

Our offense looks like ass cause of the players, not the stadium. We got too many weapons to blame a field

And that Thanksgiving game is gonna be wild, you guys look loaded and ready to defend that title, we're working through the kinks but if you know the 49ers they have had some bad pre-seasons the last few years.

Only thing i`m concerned with is if the O sputters, the D isn't gonna be as strong to carry this team like it has in past years

Part of me was banking on no Bowman or Aldon for at least one of our matchups.

I'm sure Bowman will be back by then now.

From wiki,
On May 8, 2013, the 49ers announced that San Francisco-based Levi Strauss & Co. purchased the naming rights to the new stadium. The deal calls for Levi's to pay $220.3 million to the city of Santa Clara and the 49ers over 20 years, with an option to extend the deal for another five years for around $75 million.[20]

Why would Levi's pay out that much? It doesn't make any sense to me. It's not like people are going to by more Levi's jeans because of it.

why would any company pay a stadium, arena, or other commercial property to name the facility after them? They have the cash to burn. And Every single Sunday for 8 weeks out of the year, they'll be millions of people watching and hearing Levi stadium
