Re: Redskins could come home to RFK

RFK was a great place to see the Redskins in its day. I can still picture the stands shaking with the old D.C lotto clock in the corner. I went to the last game against the Cowboys and it was a great experience that I will never forget. I wouldn’t mind if they could really fix the place and the Skins moved back. But the whole idea of a dome really scares me. I saw the Skins play inside a dome last year in St. Louis and it SUCKS! I would be so bummed to see the Redskins have there stadium covered. To me its really not good football when it’s 30 degrees outside (witch I think is perfect football weather )and you go into a heated building to play. I’m all for moving back to the District. But keep at least 80 thousand seats and what ever happens no domes please. Screw the S.B. One S.B would not even make it worth watching the Redskins play there home games inside.

I was there at that game as my first Skins game. A friend and I were offered free tix at the last minute. One of my all time best skins memories. RFK was amazing.

Yeah, football in dc is supposed to be played outdoors. Only if they promised not to close the roof w/ the exception of a SB.

Yeah I think the roof stays open the majority of the time, even in the cold, but I could be wrong. I see no problem with the Dome, as long as it is very loud, and grass. No turf.
