Interesting article. Great find. Thanks for sharing.

And no Gene, there are no negotiations going on whatsoever with the city on a permanent stadium. There is nothing happening. Zero.

Oh well Leo, another one of your fantasies down the drain.

I think Yankee stadium will be a great place to start and hopefully three years could bring us a soccer specific stadium.

LOL! If you love Leo, you're really gonna love me.

Just because someone introduces a cold dose of reality into a discussion doesn't mean they are a hater or a non-supporter. It could mean they're just being realistic.

Blindly supporting any group – emphasis on the word blindly – is not healthy in any situation.

I don't think it's ideal, but one site I was considering was Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn.
I'm sure there's some NIMBY group that would be against that as well, but it's a large open space that I believe is rather under utilized.

Opinions?

Mikey, problem being Leo hasn't introduced anything close to reality. His opinions are based on speculation, desperation, fantasy and wishful thinking.

OK, I'm new. SO, I'll just sit back and observe.
However, if you're not familiar with the word "gadfly", I suggest you take a few minutes and look it up.

Gadfly is cool. I consider myself a FOG.

Now get off my lawn!

I am very happy about the Yankee Stadium solution : now we are the TRUE AND ONLY NYC SOCCER CLUB !!!!
