I know one thing, Fed Ex doesn't come anywhere near that label. Assemble yourself a better team that always wins at home, then your stadium is suddenly tough to play at.

The big thing about RFK was the decible level. I went to a game against the Giants in the 80's where Dexter Manley had 4 sacks during two three-and-out series. The poor Giants left offensive tackle had
zero chance of hearing a snap count, so he lost any edge as Dexter blew by him play after play. RFK was a scary place for other teams during those days.
