    Gonna be difficult because that area has filled in so much and gov doesnt have the power without Alexandria's approval... Alexandria is a chartered city in VA... one of 3 that have the power of a county... they have shot down other projects in Potomac yards... itll be an interesting fight.  PS i lived there for many years and del ray section of Alexandria has the political power there and very nimbyesque

    Yes, just south of Reagan National Airport (DCA), at Potomac Yard at the north end of Alexandria.

    Interesting background.  I wonder if the whole Potomac Yard thing is a ploy to force the Capital One Arena updates?

    The Twitter reaction is that people from Maryland/north of DC are up in arms because the new site is too far away.  It's 6 miles, just a few stops down the Metro.

    Interesting that the Caps want a new arena in the suburbs to get away from downtown while the Sens want a new arena downtown to get away from the suburbs.

    Didn't notice any others. 

    September 30 - Columbus at Sabres (preseason)

    October 1 - Miami at Bills

  3. This sounds a bit like Pie in the Sky, but I've always wondered why the Athletic (by themselves) or newspapers (grouped together) haven't set up a network in every city for stringers to cover the opposing team, rather than get involved with the travel costs.

    As an example, the Dallas Morning News has a beat writer for the Stars that only covers home games and doesn't travel with the team. If Dallas were to play in Buffalo they could have a Buffalo writer (let's say John Vogl) do all the dirty work there while the Dallas reporter gives them gives them the hot topics and questions for the stringer to use. That way, you would still get a good story for the visiting newspaper at a fraction of the price.
