The #49ers are reportedly exploring a possible nearby relocation of their practice facility, as they are running out of space at and next to Levi’s Stadium, per @VicTafur

Except the substation is now powering the Silicon Valley with countless data centres. Can’t stand Jed’s attitude. Educate yourself. Otherwise free agency will become a problem, real soon.
Jed York on the substation next to the 49ers facility:
“I’m personally not going to look into it. We have a lot of people on our staff that can look into all of these things. I don’t believe it exists. This didn’t come up until 3 weeks ago. We moved there in 1987 and we won 3 Super Bowls since then. The teams that were there, Joe finished his career there. Steve Young was there for essentially his entire NFL career with the 49ers. I don’t believe that it instantly turned into something that is an issue. So it’s hard for me to believe that something that we’ve dealt with for 40 years, is now an issue today.”

@Ninercast@grantcohn Good solution, sadly I think Jed will deny this as it’s acceptance of a mistake (not moving the station for $20m when offered, before he built the stadium)
This makes perfect sense, and why changing the physical training staff hasn’t made any notable difference to injury rates at Levi’s Facility for the Niners.
Low-frequency electromagnetic fields can degrade collagen, weaken tendons, and cause soft-tissue damage at levels regulators call "safe."
We have a real world case study proving this:
An NFL team whose practice facility sits next to a massive electrical substation.

Lombardi has lost the plot, trying to compare Purdy to Joe Montana and Tom Brady is not the hill you want to die on. This will age like soured milk. Can’t wait for the onslaught.
We have @LombardiHimself running an absolute full court defense to explain why every Purdy INT is actually a stroke of QB brilliance.
Then we got @grantcohn ripping Purdy to shreds, questioning his very existence in the NFL.
Christmas came early boys & my joy is off the charts.
This tops the lot for condescending, QBR and EPA are stats heavily influenced by play calling and personnel (ability to get open). Hence the EPA and QBR of Jimmy G was massively overinflated, and Nick Mullens.
