[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, none of the things people are raising here as very valid reasons this plan should fail — the costs, the flooding, the traffic, etc. — will wind up mattering. Youngkin and Leonsis want it. It'll go through. I wish it wouldn't, as I'd like to see the teams stay in downtown D.C., but I don't really see the point in hoping against reality.[/quote] Youngkin doesn't control the Alexandria city council, nor does he have any goodwill with the state assembly. There are plenty in office who have begun to question the deal and as the facts trickle out, it gets worse and worse for the voters/taxpayers.[/quote] Lots of bad things for voters and taxpayers happen all the time, though. Especially when stadium deals are involved. Again, I would love to be proven wrong, but as a D.C. resident (and therefore someone with no ability to influence the decision at all), I am not going to bother to hope this one turns into a surprise.[/quote]
