DC could more than afford it too..That part of the city been starving for redevelopment..There is obviously gonna be some bad but the good should more than make up for it if planned right..Plus it would do wonders for the morale of the city, fanbase etc.

DC is buying Cap One Arena for $88M

They’re going to put $500M to renovate it. Leonsis is putting $300M or so

Plus DC owns Nats Park and they have to put $25M into renovations. The city and taxpayers paid for the ball park.

So where is DC going to come up with $500M to a $1B of tax payer money??? Phil Mendelson has repeatedly said DC has no money for a football stadium

I hear u im exaggerating affording but their going to find a way.. I'm guessing its gonna be a joint venture, this didn't get passed by chance ownership and goddell want this to happen..NFL lobbying hand is powerful..

spend govt money paying billionaires, for a stadium that doesnt increase jobs, tax revenue, or anything else, just public prestige. SMH

The taxpayers should not be on the hook for any of the costs of the stadium. Make Harriss come up with all the money.

Listen at the end

DC has to cut $400M from its budget cause Congress screwed them.

I want to slap the fire out of the goof in sport coat and jeans. "The haters," he says referring to people that think maybe you shouldn't be doing 800 mill for a stadium when you're laying people off. I remember these same sort of idiots when the Chargers left.

If Harris can come up with 2.5 he can come up with the rest.

Praise white Allah. Get them out of that PG County shyt hole. Fedex field (or whatever they fukk they call it now) is hands down the worst NFL football shack I've ever had the grave misfortune of stepping into. Mercedes Benz Stadium might as well be Dubai compared to that squalor.
