http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/03/30/SPD316PGER.DTL(03-30) 12:49 PDT -- Ownership of the 49ers will likely experience a severe case of stadium-envy this August when the team plays the Dallas Cowboys at Jerry Jones' billion-dollar palace in the third week of the preseason.
The 49ers announced their preseason opponents Monday, with dates and times to be determined later. The 49ers will play their first two exhibition games at Candlestick Park against Denver and Oakland and go on the road for the last two, at Dallas and San Diego.
The contrast between where the 49ers play and where the Cowboys will soon call home could not be greater. Despite a keen desire for a new stadium, the 49ers are stuck in Candlestick, the oldest non-renovated facility in the NFL. Dallas' new 80,000-seat $1.3 billion stadium, in suburban Arlington, will open on June 6 with a George Strait concert.
