Well, the kangaroo court that is the D.C. City Council has struck again. This revolting menagerie of maniacal genetic misfits has deigned to weigh in on the D.C. Nationals Baseball Stadium deal.
And they killed it.
D.C. has been waiting thirty three years to get a baseball team back, and now the window is shutting, forever. The deal was to be financed by bonds that would be repaid by local businesses and a special sales tax within the stadium. No hit to the taxpayers in DC. In fact, DC finally has a long-dreamed-of commuter tax. Voluntary, natch.
Linda Cropp is a silly vain peahen.
Her acolytes, led by Marion (Goddamn bitch set me up) Barry, don't understand the dynamics of the deal. Baseball does not want to move to DC!
Moving to DC gives away the leverage that only The Bigge$t, Riche$t City Without a Baseball Team affords them. To purchase that leverage from baseball, DC needed money. First, you need to have so much money on the table that pretenders like Portland and Norfolk fade into the woodwork. Then you've got to pay off Peter Angelos, owner of the Baltimore Orioles. Then you need to pay off the other 28 owners, who are looking for a big payday. The bottom line: about $440 Million.
Baseball has given DC until January 1, 2005 to get it's act together. I feel so sick, I could cry.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!!
I told you those idiots would screw it up!!!!! The only thing more stupid would be, I don't know, maybe building a football stadium in the middle of nowhere??
P.S. By the way, Tom Boswell.... when the Wizards sell out for 30 years in a row, then you can call Portland minor league...
P.P.S. Hope Joe Gibbs has one of his fancy race cars warming up to take him to the hospital when he has a heart attack on the sidelines...
God, I love D.C.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!!
