-===== News =====
-•	Bob Brachman of the Examiner continued to insist that head coach [[Eddie Erdelatz]] was going to coach the New York Giants next year
-•	By way of argument, he quoted Erdelatz as saying that next year "was a long time off" and that "I don't know where I'll be or what I'm doing"
-•	The primary source for the story seemed to be [[New York Jets|Titans]] owner Harry Wismer who claimed to have investigated and was "convinced" of the story's veracity
-•	Wismer had also claimed Erdelatz had not been on the field for the start of the game against the Titans on the 28th, a claim that had been refuted by multiple reporters who were on the scene at the time
-•	General manager [[Chet Soda]] said he had asked Erdelatz straight out about it when he heard the story and that Erdelatz had said there was nothing to it
-•	Soda also said Erdelatz told him he had received an offer from an unidentified eastern college but had turned it down
-•	Soda also said that the game against the [[Denver Broncos|Broncos]] scheduled for December 16, a Friday night, at Kezar Stadium, would be played on Saturday at one of the following sites: Candlestick Park, Berkeley's Memorial Stadium, Stanford Stadium, or San Jose State's Spartan Stadium
-•	He added that there was still a "slim"chance that the team would play in Kezar in 1961
-•	Finally, he said that Frederick Sullivan had "jumped the gun" in announcing a deal to buy half of Soda's share of the team and reiterated that nothing had been finalized yet
-•	Bruce Lee of the Chronicle reported that the team's assistant coaches all said they were working on "verbal contracts" and would stay loyal to Erdelatz as long as he stayed with the team
-•	Lee also reported that [[Tommy Kalmanir]] had received another coaching offer, from an unidentified party, but had turned it down
-•	Team partner [[Don Blessing]] denied earlier reports that his share of the team was spread among as many as a dozen members of a syndicate and that he only had one partner in his group
-•	In an apparent response to Soda's statement yesterday that the team would have to consider relocation if they didn't get a stadium, fellow owner [[Robert Osborne]] "promised" that the team would stay in Oakland and, according to Dick Friendlich of the Chronicle called some of his fellow owners "crybabies who don't like losing money that they had known and anticipated they were going to lose"
-•	Osborne also affirmed that he put no stock in rumors that Erdelatz was planning to jump to the Giants
-•	The head of Tudor Engineering, a company tasked with assessing the potential costs of building a multi-purpose stadium in Oakland said that, depending on the site chosen, the bill would run between $17 and $21 million
