There is truth to that but don't forget that Oakland got royally screwed by Al Davis and the Raiders (twice) and I think they had no choice but to proceed carefully.

As for improvements to the stadium, it's the lipstick on a pig argument. No lie it's a dump...but it is OUR dump! Best option on the table was probably to rebuild on the spot but the Giants were unwilling to share their ballpark while that was being done.
