REDSKINS TO STAY OUT IN THE OPEN

Washington Redskins officials have rejected proposals to build a roof over Fedex Field on cost grounds, according to the Washington Post. "It was one of the things that was looked at while looking at ways to improve things at the stadium [but] it's not going to happen," spokesman Karl Swanson said. Snyder was considering making a bid to host the Super Bowl in 2012 in conjunction with the Baltimore-Washington region's bid to host the summer Olympic Games that year, according to people familiar with the deliberations.
