88Comrade2000 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Dan just spent Terry’s money. Terry is good as gone. The stadium noise doesn’t matter because Dan may not own the team by the time ; a stadium is ready to be built. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CobraCommander Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 I knew they were gonna put it in Dumb Fries. ****ing clown show. I'll never travel there for a game.

SoCalSkins Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 They made it very less attractive for out of town fans with that location. So maybe some more empty seats instead of opposing fans? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Ya'll hear that they're creating a new town between Dumfries and Manassas? Spoiler It's called dumbasses. Thank you, thank you. Second show is different than the first. Be sure to tip your waitress. 2 1 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redskins 2021 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 (edited) I dont think he is going to own the team before the new stadium goes up. Maybe he buys the land and develops it for something else. He will be flushed with cash if he sells the team. He will need a new project.

No Nonsense Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Have anyone else notice that whenever a negative story comes up, there’s some report to counter it? I’m not familiar with the area, but this place seems quite far from DC. 3 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they'll be unhappy to hear that Virginia fans rage-hate on this team just as much as fans elsewhere do. The **** gives? They think just because we're on this side of the Potomac that we're going to be more supportive? **** outta here. Put the team back in DC where it belongs, where anything that this franchise ever did that mattered occurred. Even though I live in a part of Virginia that wouldn't be affected by this move, I still hate it.

This area is a taint. It's not a ballsack, it's not an asshole. It's that spot right in the middle. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d have an easier time making it to a Ravens game and I’m in DC. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalSkins Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 The stadium itself looks pretty nice. They used the same firm that did the previous design with the moat. BIG is the architectural firm. They have some really nice designs in other projects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLSkinz83 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 I don't know the DMV area well at all, but if they want to fill a 60,000 seat stadium with Skins fans (fewer opposing fans), wouldn't it make sense to move it further away from DC and closer to Richmond?

TheGoodBits Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 This site is hilariously bad. 95 between the beltway and Dumfries is possibly the single worst stretch of road in the entire region. Zero public transit options. Nothing at all interesting about the site (waterfront, etc). The stadium will forever be half full at most. It’s like they took everything bad about FedEx and made it 10x worse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinsinparadise Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Michael Phillips who has been covering this for the Richmond Times according to Grant Paulsen text'd him and he thinks Woodbridge is still in the lead and Phillips is supposedly writing something up on this right now.

Spaceman Spiff Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 (edited) What in the name of French fried **** went on in that decision making meeting to purchase land in Dumfries? I imagine it went like this: Snyder: "Yeah, I just know that a lot of the fans would really like to see this team back in DC. I mean, that's where I grew up watching the games with my dad in RFK and it would be so cool to have a smaller, intimate stadium actually in the city that is Metro accessible and brings some sort of nostalgia back to the team." Snyder minion aka Jason Wright: "But then the fans might actually think you did something good and approve of it." Snyder: "Yeah. Well, we can't have that, now can we?" Snyder minion aka Jason Wright: "No. No, we can't." Snyder: "Well, I'm sure we'll come up with something that everyone will hate. I mean, look at how the name reveal went. How can we top that?" Snyder minion aka Jason Wright: "Wait a second. Did you hear that?" Snyder: "Hear what?" Snyder minion aka Jason Wright: "That was the sound of me nutting in my Dockers." Snyder: "Oh Jason, stop! I love it when you do that. It means you've thought up of something that can further alienate me from the fanbase and you do such a bang-up job of it. I could only take it so far on my own. Now, tell me about this nut busting idea of yours." Snyder minion aka Jason Wright: "Well, we all know that everyone just hates the Beltway, right? Everyone hates driving on it and everyone complains that Fed Ex is hard to get in and out of, right?" Snyder: <rubbing palms together, licking lips> "Yes, yes, go on." Snyder minion aka Jason Wright: "Well, what is the one area in the DMV area that could possibly be MORE painful for our fans to get to? And really opposing fans, too?" Snyder: "Ummmm, Florida Avenue?" Snyder minion aka Jason Wright: "No. And I know you've never been there." Snyder: <grumbles> "U Street corridor? Snyder minion aka Jason Wright: "Nope." Snyder: "Fairfax County Parkway or Route 7?" Snyder minion aka Jason Wright: "Ugh, no. Dan, it's I-95. Specifically the part of the I-95 corridor where the mixing bowl is and down to Potomac Mills, it's just a giant ****show all the time. If our fans thought that getting to Fed Ex sucked, just WAIT until they get a load of this!" Snyder: "What's a mixing bowl have to do with anything?" Snyder minion aka Jason Wright: <rolls eyes> Snyder: "But I do love factory shopping and discount prices! And if our fans will absolutely hate this idea, I'm all for it!"
