D.C. United Cockblocked by Prince George's County
DC United's quest to leave RFK stadium has hit another obstacle as the Prince George's County Council has denied requests for funding. I guess any amount of bullshit pie charts and bar graphs demonstrating the benefit to the local economy can't trump the fact that municipal governments everywhere are having a hard time coming up with the funds to cover operating costs, let alone frivolous stadium outlays. While this is a serious blow to DCU's management I'm guessing that most of their fans are not too disappointed as RFK remains one of the best soccer venues in the country.
