Virginia interests explored putting the baseball stadium in Northern Virginia, but could find no space large enough and not enough local & State government support. Nor could Jack Kent Cooke when he was looking to build a new Stadium for the Redskins.

As I understand the logic of the article, Snyder sell valuable land in PG County - but then he (or the District) buys even more expensive land as a site for a new stadium? There's a crack dealer in there somewhere.

Someone else already said it, this whole idea arises from the boredom of the off-season.
