Virginia is for Suckers: VA leg looking to spend $1B to lure Washington Commanders

[Anonymous]

They are going back to DC. Unless Amazon chips in to move them in VA.

Now that all the rampant fraud within the Commanders organization is coming out, I sincerely hope Governor Dumdum and the idiots in the General Assembly who wanted to offer the organization a package to come to Virginia will come to their senses. If Snyder doesn’t lost the team entirely over this, why would anyone believe he wouldn’t defraud Virginia taxpayers like he has the NFL?

They are not coming back to DC unless they pay for the stadium. DC won't pay for it. Not politically viable.

“The Washington Commanders have been eyeing an exit from FedEx Field for years, and a new report indicates they have started to put things in motion. The Commanders paid more than $100 million for land in Prince William County, Virginia, according to ESPN, that could serve as the site for a new stadium and more.”

And what happens if tax revenues generated by the stadium populated only by the team with the second lowest attendance in the NFL are insufficient to cover the debt obligations? Will the stadium authority default on its debt, or will taxpayers make up the difference?

Narrator: The tax revenues won't be sufficient, and the taxpayers will make up the difference.

We need to slam the door on this boneheaded idea.

Disney America was stopped. This should be stopped, too.

Traffic would be even more of a nightmare than it is now. That area was considered for the Nationals minor league baseball team, who vetoed it and ended up near Fredericksburg. No way would it be appropriate for a major league football franchise.

Chap Petersen has pulled his support for the stadium bill. It’s dead.
