Washington would not allow Redskins to move back to DC due to their name and $nyder but both are gone now.

Team was negotiating with Loudoun County Virginia about a new stadium there prior to sale. 

• Technically, Loudoun County is already home to the Washington Commanders; the football team’s headquarters and training facility are in Ashburn. Now, some county officials say they are open to discussing relocating its main event — a new stadium complex — to a portion of the Chantilly Crushed Stone/Loudoun Quarries property near the Fairfax County border currently planned for the Waterside mixed-use development.
• With an investor group reportedly poised to finalize a $6 billion deal to buy the team from longtime owner Dan Snyder, county officials are now publicly pursuing discussions with the franchise to bring a National Football League stadium to Loudoun. The team’s lease for its current stadium in Landover, Maryland, ends in 2027.
• “We look forward to welcoming the Washington Commanders to the Loudoun County Board Room to share their vision of a new stadium as part of a multi-use development in an urban setting,” Matt Rogers, chief of staff for Loudoun County Board of Supervisors Chair Phyllis Randall, wrote in a statement to the Times-Mirror April 15.
• “Loudoun and the Commanders have enjoyed a long business relationship that has proven financially beneficial to both parties. An expansion of their football operations in Loudoun County is an idea we’re eager to discuss, provided that Loudoun County taxpayers will not experience a single cent of tax increase to finance a stadium,” [Matt] Rogers said.
  • This is something the NFL would not Roger Goodell will encourage if some other jurisdiction will contribute.

is Wash on schedule for a new stadium?  I can't imagine the NFL allowing this stadium to exist much longer.  Was a dump back in 2007-2010 (can't remember what year) when I was there.  It was right after our QB slid on the mat somewhere.

They say the old rockpile used to have about 2 minutes of hot water for showers then cold the rest of the way. Guys would jog from the field to the showers ‘cause they knew this. Players these days are soft ! 

I recall seeing interviews with OJ over the years in which he was recounting this.  You wanted to get into the locker room quickly or else you knew it would be a cold shower.

 

LOL

I just don't feel bad about people who make millions of dollars who had to deal with a rare cold shower when many many people lack such monetary privileges and deal with similar or worse conditions....Older generations of football players dealt with worse for much less pay if you read accounts from NFL history.....I still love football but the league has gotten soft since the 70s-90s.....Today's generation of NFL players are the most pampered out of all generations and something like this wouldn't have been a story decades ago (think Ronnie Lott who chopped off part of a limb to play or Emmitt Smith who played with a separated shoulder or Favre who played with numerous broken limbs and concussions would have complained about cold water? No lol)

 

Agree, but not anymore pampered than the rest of the population.  It has nothing to do with football players, it's just like in general
