The field is just used a lot more than other football fields around the league, and I'm sure Snyder now sees that because of the wear and tear, it's just not going to hold up to that much use all year long.

But, I hope he does strongly consider building in VA (even though I'm now a NC resident) because it would be a bit easier for me and a bit closer for me to get to games in NoVa as opposed to MD.

The party decks were more about removing seats than upgrading the stadium.

I guess I dont think the field is used more than others. College teams play there maybe once a year and there's only an occasional soccer game and/or concert. Bottom line is the field isnt used that much.

From what I have been hearing he really wants the team back in DC but once again DC city council is screwing it up.

With this mayor insisting on a name change, I doubt Snyder's going to move the team back to D.C. unless the council caves, which I feel would happen before Snyder caved into the demands to change the name.

He will lose. DC would make too much money for them not to allow the team to move there.

Its amazing that DC is poised once again to mess this up. I have said often that its only a matter of time before the name is changed but DS will change it when he wants not because of some demand or recommendation from the Mayor.

I'm sure he does but as was said before JKC locked that place up tight for a while in PG county.Between infrastucture deals and tax deals with the county and the state I think (not sure) it might be another tenyears before Snyder can move the team without it costing him a fortune

A Little history on Fed Ex,the lease is up in 2027.
