All things off season 2015.

So just a random thought...

In several articles, Dan Synder has mentioned that he would love to build a stadium with all of the 'charms' of RFK Stadium.

So, once the DC United move out of RFK Stadium, why not demo the entire interior of the stadium, and rebuild it with all of the modern methods and technology. That way you get the retro with the new. Just a thought .

because dealing with DC makes people want to kill themselves, and they've also been pushing the name thing really hard, so i really doubt it happens in our lifetime.

He can't .There is the lease at FedEx and believe it or not much of the wealth of the Skins comes from the team owning FED Ex ,they(the Skins) don't own RFK so how do you propose they do this ?Stadiums in the NFL are running anywhere from 1.5 to 2 billion .

taxpayers pay for stadiums, at least partially, in almost all cases.

Except for the nearly 300 million dollars new jersey had to spend rebuilding the infrastructure in the area. they also don't really pay any taxes for revenue from ticket sales and other sources of revenue. plus the state has to cover the 100 million dollar bond payment for the old stadium.

but besides that I'm sure the state got a great deal. NFL owners know how to screw local economies one way or the other.

Yes much of the revenue comes from the Skins owning FedEx, but the Redskins as a team and brand are much more valuable then the stadium. If the Clippers just told for 1.5-2 billion, then any NFL franchise that comes up for sale soon will easily eclipse that.

I understand that it factors into the face value, but if any team in the NFC East were to go up for sale the price paid would be more than the team is worth according to the numbers. The Giants, Cowboys, Redskins and Eagles would all sell for over 2.5 billion a piece.

For the last 3 years, i've worked on the security system at RFK. It would cost more to renovate then build from scratch. In order to increase seating into what Dan would need, the foundations would have to be deeper and wider. And the electrical system would be a complete rebuild. That i can tell you first hand. That stadium is coming down.

Flipping across the channels and came across Djax's new....."reality" show. If mindless inane drivel were an NFL infraction, he would be in Rogers office right crying about a much deserved suspension.

Feels so rare when the Cowboys are taken to task over shit like that. It's always: "Cowboys being the Cowboys!" Have a lady who worked with me for years who was a total bitch, mediocre performer, and everyone was like, "That's just her being her!" She finally got fired. I'm a sports fan, and God knows the Redskins have their share of faults, but when do you start realizing your team gives less than two-shits about being a "good guy" as long as it helps them win a football game.

Well that is not good for the Cowboys! Four game suspension added.
