No Caps in Alexandria, thanks.

We love the Caps, and we love them in their current, centrally located, right-on-top-of the red, yellow & green line location. Moving Ovi & friends to Potomac Yard in Alexandria, served by a less-central Metro line, and an already-clogged Route 1 corridor, would be a travel challenge for a lot of Caps fans & would be a traffic disaster for that area. We wouldn't be terribly affected ourselves, but we know that area well. Thanks for indulging us; we'll try to keep the self-interested rants to a minimum going forward.
