local girls softball team is the Troubadours which i thought was an alltime dumb name for a sports team
aww I kinda like it
"Senators" is a solid name too
idk the best team names are non-threatening and dumb. the worst ones are the ones that try to appear macho. animals + alliteration are always good - "Seattle Seahawks" is one of the best. idk if "Commanders" is worse than Browns, Bills, or Patriots, but it does have a very Arena Football feel to it, if I were an announcer I'd struggle to say it

putting a stadium in dumfries (or even woodbridge) would create astounding traffic jams

Yeah but traffic around dc is a real piece of cake, it’s always fun to drive
― Bruce Stingbean (Karl Malone), Monday, 23 May 2022 20:51 (one year ago) link
Yeah that’s nuts I95 south of DC is a parking lot even on weekends, although maybe they could put a VRE station at the stadium.

won't happen unless snyder gets a cut that would make up for lost parking revenue. and people will still drive because they wanna tailgate

I have a feeling the Governor is just gonna shovel money to Snyder anyway might as well get a train station out of the deal.

Lol at "create."
At minimum, it would exacerbate the existing ones.
Which could be - in the long term - a good thing. At this point I do not give a fuck. Make the whole enterprise utterly untenable. Teach the fan base an expensive and unpleasant lesson. Make it suck, for everyone forever. Maybe then people will rethink how it could be done differently.

this is a pretty remarkable report, produced by one of the NFL's partners no less, discussing how daniel snyder is one of the truly preeminent assholes in america

The whole thing is pretty curious considering how the whole Gruden thing happened and the leak that Sheffter was pretty much on speed dial with Allen and the league office as a mouthpiece. Add in the whole debacle in Mississippi with Favre and really the whole mafia line is probably not far from the truth.
NFL world is just a microcosm of the sleazy world of American corporate and political governance.

This was an interesting segment. I never knew about the whole thing with trying to get Papa John to go after Goodell thing. Kinda interesting considering what happened to him and considering Kraft got busted and was able to walk away from getting busted on camera at a rub and tug.

football men that i command, let me tell you - this is not a game. this is a war. this is not a playing field. this is a battlefield. we will fight to the death for every single yard, and we may not return home. we might die out there as heroes who will never be forgotten. they'll make statues of you, those of you who are willing to sacrifice, at least. we will take the fight to the enemy and punish them. then i will run for senate
