Heck! I'd pay an extra grand just for big jombo trons to be put in the biggest stadium in the NFL! You've been to Fed Ex! You have to squint your freaking eyes just to see what the heck they're showing! Thats why they don't show those replays of "fumbles" or out of bounds catches or "was he down" because you can't see it any darn way so why bother!

And bringing the skins back to the city so I can get hammered at the game and then take an affordable taxi back home makes it worth it right there! I mean, have you ever tried to take a Maryland cab into Virginia? They don't even know what exit you're talking about! They don't even know what the "mixing bowl" is!!!!

Don't get me wrong, Fed Ex Field is nice. I've had some really good memories there, but the Washington Redskins belong in Washington DC.

I hear you, but the needed improvements that FedEx field needs are no reason to cram a new stadium expense down the throats of the season ticket holders. You don't throw away a car that works becasue the tires are flat. If they can do it without passing any of the cost on to me then i am fine with it but that's not reality. And you said you would pay a $1000...I would pay that too if it came down to it but what if it were 5 or 10,000 per seat. I am not sure I could aford that and the thought of being forced out after waiting over 20 years for my tickets sucks.
