I thought I had heard something a while back about Snyder wanting to build a new stadium close to RFK, but I'm sure that was probably nothing serious nor would it be anything that would happen soon.

It really all comes down to the fact that the teams this franchise has put on the field since moving into Fedex and even a bit prior were mediocre to bad teams. So, that's going to send bad vibes as it is. And I'm sure that the number of Redskins fans who bought tickets at RFK have dropped off since the team just doesn't win on a regular basis anymore. That in combination of higher ticket prices plus the economy puts a bind on the average fan attending an NFL game. So, there might be something to the notion that those who attend the games are higher up execs who really don't follow the 'skins as closely as a lot of us do.
