Actually Northern VA and DC are in a race against each other, since NoVA has offered to build a new stadium out where Dulles Airport is and DC has offered four places as possible new stadium choices in addition to RFK being a permanent home...it would take $15 million to get RFK ready for the season starting in 2006 but i'm betting on the DC affiliation since NoVA doesn't have anywhere to put them...plus, the area is going to be planning for the Metro expansion anyways
and thank God for that!
