More on the 49ers staying in Youngstown, traveling

Nothing that's all that new except for some actual distance figures if you've never seen them before.

49ers Blog and Q&A: Youngstown redux: How Harbaugh handles 10 a.m. starts

Say the 49ers come out on top with this and win both games like last year. Do you think Seattle, Oakland, San Diego and Arizona will find a little college campus on the east coast to take over for a week or two?

Maybe, depends on the schedule obviously. Sando did a piece on our decision to stay there and it sounded like last year the other teams (in our division, not sure league-wide) either had a bye between road games or had their back-to-back road games on opposite coasts. But it certainly can be a copycat league where if something works others will follow, but this obviously is not like the wildcat where it would that kind of copy. There are a few drawbacks, like we had to conduct run-throughs in the hotel's parking lot instead of at home where we have all the facilities. Someone asked Harbaugh if he'd be doing that again. He said yes. Then a reporter said he'd be there. Harbaugh replied that there will be security. Also, teams would either have to pay more or have ties to some college field.

Yeah, I think it is a lot easier for the 49ers because the Debartelo/Yorks are a big deal in Youngstown. I think it was around a million dollars that they donated to that university to help build those athletic facilities. So the school is happy to help the 49ers out.
