Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 1171586, member: 652"] You should give your number to potential clients on K Street in DC because you sir are good at spin. You can't just change facts to make a deal look the way you want. In the end Syracuse will lose 1 home game I feared we would lose 2 home games and get absolutely no benefit to Notre Dame-ACC affliation. The ACC alleviated that fear and atleast salvaged 1 home game for Syracuse. I am okay with losing 1 home game because we were atleast a high paid 5 letter word for giving up a home game. Syracuse will visit Notre Dame 2 times, host Notre Dame 1 time, and play 2 neutral site games. We got a 1-2-2 series which is a lot better than 0-2-2. I can be reasonable and for the greater good accept losing 1 home, but this white washing of positive spin that you and the people liking MadNY's post is honestly amazing. I am happy people like playing games in NYC, but you people ignore the fact Syracuse is being played by Notre Dame and are making it seem like we are winning this deal. Again, we are likely getting some fee for the games in NYC however nobody knows the actual amount and just like the "Great Lie" when something is repeated enough times its get the perception of reality. I am sure we are getting a good amount of money, but that doesn't make a midmajor deal anything different than a midmajor deal that paid Syracuse more money. Fact: Every ACC team except Syracuse will host Notre Dame on their campus 2 times except Syracuse. We didn't play Notre Dame 2 times at home instead Dr. Gross most likely couldn't get out of the Metlife contract and had to sacrifice a home game for the $$$ . Just stop trying to make this deal seem like we are winning. We aren't winning, but you people just spread this spin and want people who don't pay attention to actually think we are winning the deal when the deal just doesn't suck badly. We lost 1 home game which isn't good, but nothing to be major upset about. [/QUOTE]
