I thought DC didn't want them back unless they changed the name? I don't see the Skins going back unless DC softens on that stance.

Money talks, and with the team being successful now, it will be hard for the District to miss out. Plus, I think the issue has somewhat died down IMO.

The name change would be moot if DC funds aren't used for the stadium. Personally I hope it's DC and I could also careless if they change the name but that is just me.

Doesn't DC own the land that RFK is on? I might be wrong but if they or the federal gov't own it it definitely wouldn't be a moot point. And RFK is like the only spot in DC big enough for a stadium.

That is correct. Somehow I think that's where it will end up. At this point there is no other place in the DC area to put a stadium.
