Since I posted that NBC4 story crowing about a deal, I feel it necessary to follow up
with this from the Post this afternoon: "Mayor Adrian M. Fenty said today that no deal has been struck to use public funds to build a professional soccer stadium in Southeast Washington. He also said his talks with D.C. United about a partnership do not represent a drastic departure from his stance against public financing of the Nationals baseball stadium." Read the rest of the article for details, including discussions of Fenty's stand on public financing of sports venues. [Will. Not. Get. Sucked. In. Must. Resist.]
