[quote=HTTR;1364798]There’s a load of pathos and irony in this sad tale — on the one hand, stop offending Native Americans by using them as mascots, and on the other, honor the pride and dignity of Native Americans embodied in Blackie Wentzel’s great depiction of John Two Guns White Calf. [B]Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.[/B]

I have no problem with the football team making amends with the Wetzels . . . lord knows Snyder f’ed up that situation along with everything else . . . What I have a problem with is the Montana Senator making this molehill into a mountain that he seems prepared to die on. Time to step back, senator, and let the RFK site play out for OUR team. Go pester the Broncos or whoever you root for.

Yeah we're never gonna make everyone happy. I just want the stadium legislation to move forward and it's also nice to see current leadership try to honor the families and make amends.

I don't understand (I mean I do, but I don't) why some @$$hat from montana gets to decide if the DC football team can have a stadium in DC (when the team and DC government are interested).

Re: Home Stadium Convo
 

RFK yes.

Hmmm, what could Goodell and Harris be talking about to John Thune?

RFK STADIUM LEGISLATION PASSES SENATE AND HEADS TO THE PRESIDENT’S DESK.

The Senate just passed my bipartisan D.C. RFK Stadium Campus Revitalization Act.

If Congress failed to pass my RFK stadium legislation, this decaying land in D.C. would continue to cost taxpayers a fortune to maintain.

My RFK legislation PROHIBITS federal taxpayer funds from being used to develop any future stadium at the RFK site in D.C.

The Congressional Budget Office analysis of my bill also indicates it has NO IMPACT on the federal deficit.

This bipartisan success is a testament to the House Oversight Committee’s unwavering effort to protect taxpayers and our full commitment to ensuring a capital that is prosperous for residents and visitors for generations to come.

Per James Comer

It’s passed like it always should have, as a stand alone bill

I'm gonna ruin this thread, only reason it passed as a standalone bill is because that dipshit President Elon fed everyone a false narrative about fed money being included to build the stadium.

Glad it didn't hold it up but it never should've come to this. Anything Congress touches gets weaponized though.

Re: Home Stadium Convo
 

The RFK site has excellent Metro access And it's clear that Harris and the ownership group wants to move back. I hope they get a deal done soon and start heading towards the new stadium and new name!

Here's a question, while it will have its own design, which current stadium would you like the new one to look like? Domed or not? Personally I've always liked the Seahawks stadium. Be great to get something as intimidating going.

Gotta be dome and the design gonna be go big or go home. It’s gonna be awesome

Re: Home Stadium Convo
 

Count me in the group that wants a dome also. I don't care what the haters say. I'm tired of games which diminishes the players' skills due to terrible weather and field conditions. A dome enhances quality of play and eliminates bs variables. I want a fast Commanders team that blows teams out in their dome stadium.

Re: Home Stadium Convo
 

I used to be hardcore outdoors only. Battling the elements, mud and blood, blah blah. But domed makes more sense from a utilization standpoint and, speaking personally, I’ve gotten too old to sit outside 3+ hours unless it’s over 55 degrees.

I'm starting to think Barkley is on steroids.....ain't no way.

Re: Home Stadium Convo
 

I don't give a fuck about anything about the stadium other than where it's built.

Re: Home Stadium Convo
 

Just my Two [emoji3577] cents....

I am Extremely Glad that the RFK Revitalization Bill FINALLY passed Congress!

Whatever the new Washington NFL Team's stadium [emoji2522] turns out to be....it should be at the RFK site, because of the history of the site, the proximity to DC and the Capital, and the proximity to Metro [emoji585]

As for the type of stadium [emoji2522], personally I'd prefer a Retractable Roof stadium [emoji2522] with a Retractable Grass Field (like the Arizona Cardinals stadium)
That combo would give a grass field with the possibility of Open Air games in nice weather and the possibilities of other events being held at the stadium [emoji2522] when the Washington NFL team is not playing.

BTW....I was referring to Washington Commanders as the Washington NFL team in my above statement because the team may have a new name once they get a new stadium [emoji2522]
