[b]World class cities have sports venues. [/b]Why would we not want DC to become a world class city?

This will dramatically benefit NE/SE DC over the long term.

Nats park has been one of the biggest changes to the city. The area was foul before, now it is absolutely bustling. Nats park is a fantastic baseball experience -- i've been to every baseball stadium in the US.

DC [i]has[/i] sports venues - as you yourself said.

There are plenty of world class cities that don't have NFL stadiums, for example London, Paris, Tokyo, Mexico City, Lagos, Sydney, Buenos Aires...[/quote]

All of those cities have multiple soccer stadiums (OK, I'm not sure about Tokyo and Lagos and Sydney). I mean London has 22 soccer stadiums within city limits.

And of course, none of those cities have an NFL team, so having an NFL stadium would be silly. [/quote]

Poor London and Paris, struggling on despite the burden of not having an NFL team or NFL stadium...[/quote]

Imagine the London and Paris soccer teams pulling out of the EPL and UEFA and then get back to me. You must be really fun at parties. [/quote]

We're talking about an NFL stadium. Please stay on topic.[/quote]
