Message: [QUOTE="hoopsupstate, post: 885037, member: 13"] It's amazing that NYS can help fund new stadiums in NYC and NJ and millions in updating bridges into the city, but can't help fund a potential economic bonanza in upstate NY. If this has legs, they need to do it right. The inner harbor, Destiny USA, regional transportation center and being near Franklin and Armory Square are the ideal locations to put a new stadium with the proper access to the University. If you have to put a new highway through the city, you might as well put the proper access roads to the stadium location. To revitalize Syracuse and Upstate people need to start thinking big and[I] invest[/I] in making it happen. It's ironic that all of the other air supported stadiums are being replaced but everyone thinks the Carrier Dome can last forever. I'm glad someone is thinking about it. SU did nothing for 20 years in investing into the athletic programs. If you stand still, we'll fall by the wayside again. [/QUOTE]
