Yeah I would love his nastiness at AGE 28 at 35? Nah too much of a headache

Richie Incognito detained, put on psychiatric hold after disturbance @lifetimefitness in Boca Raton, Fla.

We're running out of shit to talk about. I know, let's rehash old shit.

Dominique Rodgers Cromartie and Jonathan Hankins are still available. So is Bashaud Breeland. Discuss.

Unless we get a left guard all talk is meaningless

I think Hankins blew the chance of getting decent to good contract. I think the next best thing he can do is wait until training camp and see if one DT gets injured.

I admit that Hankins still being out there is a hard one to understand .Makes you wonder if there something more to it or does he just need to fire his agent!

He misread the market, and the draft. He thought he would wait it out like last year and pick his spot. The draft had several viable young interior DL and teams didn't want to go top dollar when the rookie class looked tempting.

At some point he made the decision to wait and see, and we will see if it works for him. Not likely to make anywhere near what he would have in the first few weeks of FA though.

If we're rehashing, I'll ask about a subject that has already been talked about, the Redskins stadium:

FedEx Field gets ranked dead last in NFL stadiums ranking

(Of course, such a ranking is highly subjective, and I have no idea what SportingNews' feelings towards the Redskins are - nor do I care).

Now, I think a lot of you will agree that FedEx Field is not a good stadium, my question to those who've attended games there, is why ?

I understood getting and leaving from there is difficult, but what about the stadium itself, what makes it such a disappointing place to watch a football game?

It's highly probable the Redskins will have a new stadium within a couple of years, what are you expecting from it (a part from a better location) ?

1) Location...location...location... redskins went from RFK in the middle of historic Washington D.C. a stones throw away from the picturesque Capital and all of the Monuments to.....Suburbia. Awful. When Fed Ex was first opened there was very little there to offer other than strip malls and.....?
2) I sat in the Upper level of the FED Ex ONCE and never again. You might as well be on a plane or blimp watching. You are so far up and away from the field. Binoculars are a must. I would rather watch on TV than sit in the Upper level.
3) Fed Ex is now considered old and out dated. Has very little of today's amenities that new stadiums have. But mostly it cannot compete with a new stadium. RFK was old but at least it had some character. Fed EX is ugly.

Thank you.

Surprisingly though, FedEx has had one of the biggest average attendances in the league throughout the years (slightly above 75K/game last year) ... but one of the lowest filling percentages (88.4% last year).

I hope the field is a better surface. I believe part of our injury issue lies in the terrible quality fo the field.

I hope all the stadiums go to reasonable priced concessions.

I hope it's somehow affordable and accessible to Maryland residents (I am afraid it will end up near richmond)

Sorry C, but I hope it does end up near Richmond. A bit closer to me in NC, and VA is huge Redskins country.

Yep, they have basically conceded Maryland to Baltimore, and moving closer to Richmond would re-inforce that.

I am really hoping that they get the land in Oxon Hill. But seems like a long shot.

[punch it in]

So happy I missed the Incognito discussion. Hopefully it is only taking place in here and absolutely nowhere near our FO. Eff that psycho asshole.
Just for the record I would have said that well before his latest mess.

[skinsfaninok]

Dez says he's turned down offers from Baltimore, he wants to play for an NFCE team from what has been rumored. Hankins must really want big $, glad we didn't sign him.
