[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's DC's justification for this stadium? [/quote]

That it will make tons of money for the city. [/quote]

It definitely will not, stadiums almost never make money for cities. [/quote]

Then how city councils and administrators make the business case for it?[/quote]

The business case is all of the development that will happen as a part of the stadium. Also, the NFL wants the stadium in DC. That's why the bill got passed as a standalone.

If you moved around RFK then you should have assumed that a stadium was going to be there. [/quote]

Just like all the development that happened around FedEx?

Please.

Study after study shows that large stadiums are an absolute boondoggle. And DC has no money to pay for one anyway.

The odds of the stadium being built in the next 5 years are not great.[/quote]

I expect Alexandria to make a bid to home the team in Potomac Yard. That will drive a bidding war between the two governments with money neither has. [/quote]

No I think people in Alexandria have seen this:
