Too cold for football? A Green Bay fan or two might have a response to that. Yeah, it wasn't ideal for baseball, but football?

From what I could tell the walk away from Candlestick had more to do with an out-of-town owner thinking he could gin up a more enthusiastic fan base in Silicon Valley--one more willing to pay for the usual luxury suites etc. But now the option is gone--Candlestick is programmed for redevelopment into housing and more.

But the move doesn't seem to be working; hence my question. Will the Yorks of Ohio give up on Santa Clara within a decade and move the team beyond the Bay?
