Message: [QUOTE="JeremyCuse, post: 885054, member: 43"] I was referring to NY as a whole certainly not just upstate but I agree with your statement. I am certainly not against a new stadium but I think some people are so in love with the idea that there hoping for things that just dont seem realistic. Im sure the construction of the facility would be a huge boom to the local economy but that's only in the short term and really if your not in construction or a own a local business affected by the influx of workers ie restaurant, hotel etc how much is it really going to affect the average joe? Second once the facility is completed your going to need a few dozen people at best to run the place on a daily basis. Those hundreds of workers would only be needed when a team was playing and an even taking place, which might be what 45 -50 times a year? [/QUOTE]
