I would have no problem playing them [U]IF[/U] it helps us schedule wise and financially [U]AND[/U] if its what HCDB wants.  That program is dead and its not coming back, no worries there.  A NE independent, outside of the major powers, will never be relevant in college football during this day and age.  I understand wanting to watch them slowly wither away, and I actually think us playing them would help prolong that slow death (which probably would make some happy here on the board).  That said, could there be some additional positives to playing them?

- Money
- Scheduling (2 for 1? 2 for 1 for 1 played in NYC?)
- HCDB happiness - he gave a speech at a camp in Pa. earlier this summer where he preached to the kids on keeping "local" talent to stay home in the NE, this might be something of significance to him, and if it is, im all for making that man happy. 
- NE/NYC recruiting another game to sell kids in NYC and the NE to keep them home so family can easily come to watch them play.
- TV? Would the game get picked up in the Tri state area ?
- Easy road trip for Syracuse fans and for expanding the fan base
- The wins would be easy and satisfying to the fan base
