I think we've got three "curses" - we hired Steve Spurrier as a head coach (but Joe Gibbs is slowly but surely removing that curse), we moved out of the original "DC diamond" (the new stadium, if not in DC proper should have been at the old Potomac Yards in Alexandria as JKC originally wanted - it was on the Metro, had sight lines to the Monument and was in the original boundaries of DC) and we took Jack Kent Cooke's name off the stadium. I say we fix the remaining "curses" by building a proper football stadium - with lot's of natural crowd noise - inside the original DC boundaries and name it JKC Stadium. (And once Gibbs retires the second time, I'd want to call it "Gibbs Field at Jack Kent Cooke Stadium"...)
