New special interest: Big football

There is a new road open to the public as of August 4 just a stone’s throw from where I live in Sterling, Virginia. The road leads to nearby Ashburn, home of “Redskin Park” (pardon the language), the Washington Redskins’ training facility and corporate headquarters.

Actually the road leads right to the door of that place.

Thanks, taxpayers!

Never more will those you-know-whos have to traverse the wilds of suburbia to get to work. The generous taxpayers of Loudoun County have provided a driveway for Ashburn types to slip off the highway to their giant bubble (I mean that literally) a few hundred yards inland.

Price tag? Thirty million dollars.

Must be nice.
