I'm from silver spring maryland But I live in south carolina now And I would definitely make the trip back and forth to see them play at the RFK Site I can remember going to those games as a kid I loved it And I would definitely come back for that. HTTC!!!
Also I do want the stadium to be at the RFK site and I want a retractable roof so DC can host Super Bowls, NCAA Basketball, Neutral site college games, bring a major bowl game to the area, friendlies between major soccer powers.
@@Rio_Robinson91 I would love for the opportunity to see a neutral site game between say Georgia and USC......to expierience MAJOR college football would be awesome. Same goes for NCAA tournament basketball, that would be awesome. UFC, Boxing, concerts! Having not just a stadium but an event center would be a huge boon for DC as well from the tax revenue to all the cash influx into the local economy.
@Rio Robinson Definitely will be nice when we do make a return to the playoffs to not have to play on a muddy asf field. Swear that and Shanahans ridiculous decision to play RGIII, cost him his career depriving us of a Franchise QB. Still pisses me TF off to this day.
I would like them to knock down the DC armory and include that in the plans to build a new stadium complex at the sight similiar to SO-FI where you have the stadium and a smaller venue that replaces the DC Armory all under one roof.
IDK, look at that geography. A lot of people that live along side area will be coerced to move. I am NOT in favor of rich people building out of nostagia. Plus, although DC Armory replacement is probably a necessity, they also have to build over a river, the Anacostia I believe? Nasty ass Anacostia, one of the dirtiest rivers in America?!? Ewww. As much as it would rest my Granddad's soul to have the Commanders in Washinton again, VA, IMO, is a better option.
@@garytucker3563 I am all for gentrification and redevelopment of distressed areas. Letting entire areas of a city go to crap and become third world slums should never be a viable option. Rivers that are dirty today are not always so. The Anacostia River's return to swimmable and fishable is well underway with its waters receiving a passing grade for the third time in four years in the 2021 State of the River Report Card.
Good to see you come around on where the stadium should be. A 65,000 seat stadium at the RFK site is what I want. But I must disagree as strongly as possible on the type of a stadium. No damn domes. Part of the home field advantage that Washington had was inclement weather in December and January. A dome makes your team soft especially in January (see Cowboys, Dallas). The people that really love this team and know football were always hale and hearty enough to show up in awful weather. And you mentioned it, but why was the seat cushion game iconic? Thay cold rain falling on Hammer and Prime's head as the Hogs ground the Falcons down to dust. Mark Moseley's record breaker to beat the Giants in 82. Snow. When the whole league is going the wimpy direction. The right move is away from that
@Greg Steele They want a Super Bowl. In the dead of winter when everyone in government is there and when the fewest tourists come. I want to come home and see Halle Berry waiting for me, that ain't happening either. If they compromise our ability to win the SB to host one Super Bowl (and it will only be 1) this group will damn themselves as owners who can't see the bigger picture
Damn straight. MD folks complaining about IF the stadium moves have no freaking Idea. No freaking clue. If the stadium moving farther away from them is the "last straw" then they weren't fans if they were putting up with these shenanigans for 24 years and NOW they care?
@@xxxxxx-ux2wz I have seen plenty complaining since last year and there was even a hint of the stadium moving. Yes it should be in D.C., but MD folks have had it good for a long time now.
@@Commanders2022 I have seen plenty complaining since last year and there was even a hint of the stadium moving. Yes it should be in D.C., but MD folks have had it good for a long time now.
@@Yamstarch it’s a dc team.. and if you know anything about the dmv traffic nobody wants to go to VA!! Maryland location is closer to dc than loudoun county or Woodbridge!! Maryland is the 2nd best option other than dc. No one is complaining about moving the stadium bk to dc. It’s only the va locations which makes a ton of sense
I have no problem driving up to one of the Metro stops and park there to take the train over to the stadium armory metro station. I do remember those glory days as a kid.
Harris should make it that easy for you to take Metro to Landover and Morgan Blvd stations and have a free shuttle that will take you from metro to FedExField
I hope the new owners will have the capitol to build a new stadium in D.C. I believe it will cost over a billion dollars. I hope they build it on the old RFK site, that stadium needs to be torn down it is a huge eye sore and total wreck.
The Morgan Blv walk wouldn't be so bad it wasn't a huge hill. I'm from NC. I didn't get a chance to see a game at RFK. So RFK 2.0 is what I want. I don't mind MD or VA, but it has to be inside the beltway. And no Dumfries! When I saw that was an option, I almost became a Panthers fan.
I know there was a study done several years ago and the bulk percentage of Commaderskins fans/season ticket holders lived in Virginia. Their training camp has been in Richmond, their home offices/practice complex is in Ashburn. Why not build the new stadium in Virginia? DC is too crowded and compressed with bad traffic especially with Nats Park and Audi field too. Virginia fans have commuted long distances for far too long.
@@trucknwitayee9669 agree. I’m from Alexandria and my pops has had season tickets since Griffith stadium. RFK area would be perfect. Already Meteo access and a great location.
No way they have both the stadium and the practice facility in DC. Too much of a hassle to get into and out of the city on a daily basis. If stadium ends up in RFK it makes sense to have the practice facility at FedEx and sell off the Ashburn site to data center developers to recoup some money from the all the money being spent.
Not if the parking is underground and built up as well to accommodate a modern stadium. Practice facility can always be built elsewhere imo but not too far either.
@@shankshoanatlprez4453 this is very unlikely and costly, but what if they left Virginia all together, built the stadium in DC, and turned FedEx into the headquarters and practice facility?
Is there any acreage available to build the stadium next to the Washington Nationals in the old Navy Yard....I've heard there is good public transportation to that local
Stadium would be better in the city at the old site for a number of reasons. Especially in modern DC plus very metro accessible Take it back to the glory days.
If they can't build it in DC at the RFK site, build it in VA where 267 and 28 meet. At least there is a metro stop nearby vs Landover which is utter garbage. Either way, who cares DANNY BOY IS GONE AND WE GOING TO THE SUPER BOWL!!!!! The entire DMV is going to have its mojo back now that we have our team back

I think that's gotta be the goal and it has to have a roof wither retractable or translucent

The best way to maximize the return is to listen to the fan base. Washington DC, and only Washington DC.
What a beautiful sight.. in perfect alignment with the capitol , monument and the Lincoln memorial
It would be dope if the new stadium was a actual metro stop during game days. Literally off the train directly into the stadium. 🔥
I would like them to knock down the DC armory and include that in the plans to build a new stadium complex at the sight similiar to SO-FI where you have the stadium and a smaller venue that replaces the DC Armory all under one roof.
Would be GORGEOUS
Would be amazing!

RFK 2.0...time for a new version of the GLORY DAYS
@rio this is all I have thought of since the announcement. it NEEDS to go to the old RFK spot since this has happened... 1000%
National harbor is the best location …has traffic infrastructure built in entertainment and boat access.. dc va and md can get to it !

They want a Super Bowl. No dome, no super bowl. Now how about a glass removable roof. Something like the Cowbums stadium but glass.

It wouldn’t feel right to have a stadium in Virginia 💯
Arlington is probably more expensive land than the RFK site...no way it ends up in Arlington
@@gusbus9000 well if it's in VA it'll probably be in one of the northern cities
I believe this Team will sell out at 75000 capacity
The Eye Soar being the very old DC Armory should be replaced with the team new practice facility.
I’ll keep my opinion of DC’s mayor to myself but I’m with here on this one. RFK 2.0 all the way. Aluminum bleachers for banging and all.
Give us our name back, I am a Redskin fan❤
