@GetOnTap No love for Express? Though, I guess that would be hard to define.

@TheDMVLive I could see the black cloud of smoke from an upper floor of my office building in northwest DC.

Thanks for the information.

[Doug Schneeberg @DougSchneeberg]

@AlexiLalas And let's not forget Lalas' Hill.

[Doug Schneeberg @DougSchneeberg]

@usmntonly Also, weren't a lot of players called in already in leagues with pro/rel? If so, then why did it take 1.5 years to break the mentality?

[Doug Schneeberg @DougSchneeberg]

@usmntonly And Freeman was a product of that environment and only recently went to Spain.

[Doug Schneeberg @DougSchneeberg]

It is one of the reasons the 1994 men's WC was so successful to include financially.

It even helped when they had to do an emergency relocation of the women's world cup from China in 2003 due to SARS.

Like it or not, the USA is always building stadiums, performance centers and hotels.

[Doug Schneeberg @DougSchneeberg]

@AK44YOfficial @FreddyLA7 It also makes it easier for rotating officiating crews and teams not to worry about if that detail changes on a game to game and a location to location basis.

[Doug Schneeberg @DougSchneeberg]

@DCoscia2 @real_EBS_ There is a 2-mile stretch of an I-695 south of Capitol Hill. Of course the better known one is the Baltimore Beltway.

@SteaknShake My photos tend to be spontaneous without anyone to capture me in them...but you may like them.

[Doug Schneeberg @DougSchneeberg]

@NikkiSchwab So, that's what I heard.

[Doug Schneeberg @DougSchneeberg]

@fiago7 Embassy Row may be interesting to go through.

[Doug Schneeberg @DougSchneeberg]

@fiago7 Area just south to consider - Mt Vernon.

But the National Mall in DC and across the river in Arlington, VA are probably the area with the most density of attractions.

There are also some sponsored WC watch parties in the area.

[Doug Schneeberg @DougSchneeberg]

@CynicalPublius I'd wait until the Desert Storm and Desert Shield memorial is completed.

[Doug Schneeberg @DougSchneeberg]

@shipwreckedcrew Oh, and the league hasn't been shy about selling younger players and those on the academies.

[Doug Schneeberg @DougSchneeberg]

@shipwreckedcrew There is a mix of older, U22s, homegrown, etc.

What will be interesting is when MLS completes its season switch and the transfer windows align.

[Doug Schneeberg @DougSchneeberg]

@AlexiLalas Wow.

Though technically it coincided with the start of the World Cup, but a day before the US would play.

I watched the tournament and the freeway video, but completely forgot they were so close together.

[Doug Schneeberg @DougSchneeberg]

@Jetsnum1N @CFCMods I worked in DC during the 1994 WC. I knew the event was occurring and I watched on tv, but I had no idea RFK stadium was one of the sites when the tournament started.

[Doug Schneeberg @DougSchneeberg]

@BlueBoxDave It feels like it should be near a place called Dragon's Tooth along the Appalachian Trail.
