Re: Are the Redskins becoming more of a Virginia based team?

Also, I think you guys are discussing the wrong points. The major point in all this is.........."Who's going to pay for the stadium?"


Virginia taxpayers? Maryland taxpayers?


Who's going to offer Danny boy a better deal? MD or VA? I assure you, that's the bottom line that will win out on where the stadium is placed.


Also, the main reason this is most likely being pushed now is due to the popularity of the team currently. Jerry Jones did the same thing. Made some moves to get the popularity up so he could sell his snake oil to the fans and taxpayers.



He flat out admits that to partly sell the stadium, he had to bring in Bill Parcells get the hype up. It worked.


Look at San Francisco. They've capitalized on the 49ers success the past 2 years to not only get a new stadium, but to get idiots to fork over between 2k -80k for PSLs.

San Francisco 49ers sell $670 million in seats for new stadium - San Jose Mercury News


Would any of you drop 2-6K per seat for a one time fee just for the right to purchase tickets?....lol
