Latest On The Skins Stadium Moving Back To DC???

Your right I forgot that Jack Kente Cooke built it, which would explain why it had it's name on it in the beginning. I was at the first game ever played in FedEx Field but I was rather small and probably didn't know much of what was going on (I was in 1st grade or 2nd grade), I still have the tickets though.

I have heard from stadium employees that Snyder is planning to move back to DC in 7 years.

Pretty cool that you got to be there live.

the rumors i've heard has rfk being torn down and snyder building a new stadium on that site, possibly a dome stadium so a superbowl could be played there.

That's what I would do, tear down old RFK with mixed emotions and build a brand new state of the art stadium without a dome. Domes are not real football stadiums, maybe a retractable dome and even so, I still don't like domes.

I really hope we don't have a dome. Domes aren't football. I understand a team like Minnesota or Detroit having them because some games you simply couldn't play outside because it would be so could but we don't have that situation. I believe football should be played with the elements. Maybe a retractable roof so we could host a Superbowl.

RFK is close to my heart, and without question a louder stadium than FedEx. It also had a better energy, but then maybe it had to do with all the winning. I've been to a few Nationals game, and the minute I walk into the stadium, the memories come back – the playoffs, the championships, the Monday night game when LT broke Joe’s leg, the hailstorm of 55,000 yellow seat cushions after a championship TD. Oh, and the drunk fans on the metro.

Whenever they demolish RFK, I've got a make a plan to get a brick.

yea, i don't like domes either. snyder really wants a superbowl though, and that might cuase him to build a dome or a stadium with a retractable roof.

In light of the outpouring of support and online tributes that Dallas Cowboy fans have extended to us this week, your signature "romo is a homo" is inappropriate, not to mention unoriginal.

I would love to see the Skins move back to DC. The rumors I've heard is a 125,000 seat stadium, with a retractable roof on the current RFK site. That would be awesome. The site of RFK is easily assessable for all Skins fans and direct metro access is much more accommodating and the atmosphere at FedEx is not that great.
