Re: Men's Lacrosse 2023
Hope you are right, but don't underestimate Sands/Rechler. That sight has been the target of developers for over two decades and not one of the proposals was good for the neighborhood. I agree Hofstra is in a very tough fight no doubt, I’m just saying that these other proposals in NYC also have maj...

Re: Men's Lacrosse 2023
The casino is an existential menace to Hofstra and I'm not sure Hofstra is up to the fight, especially with the completely turncoat ex-president in Rechler's pocket. Sands/Rechler have already bought off NCC and have no qualms about buying off every Pol they can. Not sure Hofstra, Uniondale, East M...

Re: Men's Lacrosse 2023
HofstraPride1 - You do not have to sell me, I love the school, you have to sell 17 year olds with many options and unless you can figure out a way to helicopter them into the arboretum and avoid the Tpke. and surrounding areas it is a tough sell. Agreed although when it comes to recruiting showcasi...

Re: Men's Lacrosse 2023
We have been having this debate for a decade and its gotten us to where we are now. I don't see the point of this any longer. Hofstra's a good school (better than many that are now kicking our arse), with great facilities, in a lacrosse crazy area. So you tell me, but something is very wrong. #1) U...

Moving up to the top since this online petition very close to reaching initial goal of 500 and then it will get promoted more. The more opposition to this the better. https://www.change.org/p/say-no-to-the-casino

Re: MBB Game 25 - Stony Brook, 2/4/23 (Sat), 4 PM
Our "sellout" is somewhat of a misnomer these days as the North end and some of the South end seats have been removed...sellout now probably means about 3,500 people. I think is 4,000. Will find out tomorrow when we see boxscore assuming it is a sellout., Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Re: Casino proposed at coliseum property would be awful for
Let's discuss the facts as we know them. 1. NYS is issuing an additional 3 casino licenses; this is 100% happening. There is thought to maybe stagger them but over the next few years they will be issued. 2. All 3 licenses will be issued in the downstate area (essentially NYC, Nassau, Suffolk or Wes...

Re: Casino proposed at coliseum property would be awful for
For those following this - the Sands has bought off Nassau Community College, enlisted former Gov. Paterson, and Rechler owns Stu Rabinowitz. The stench from the money trail is pretty strong. 1000%. I have a bad feeling this is a runway train and Hofstra has little power to stop it. We still have t...

Re: Why Not Florida?????
Northeastern needs a travel partner the closest is Hofstra, which is still five hours away. It should be a New England school. My first choice would be Bryant followed by Fairfield Sacred Heart, then Quinnipiac. Quinnipiac has the best facilities and best overall athletic program...I'm good with th...

Re: Why Not Florida?????
I liked 10 teams, and I certainly do not want more than 14. I also would like the CAA to follow its name and only allow teams from states that were colonies. I had the same complaint when a UNCW fan wanted Chattanooga to join. How many Florida teams would want to travel north to be in the CAA? HUSI...

Re: Casino proposed at coliseum property would be awful for
Speaking of UNLV, the hospitality school is very highly ranked. I checked a few college ranking websites, and UNLV was consistently in the top 10 for hotel and hospitality. Also speaking of gambling, near where the Target store in Westbury, off the Meadowbrook Parkway, was the Roosevelt Raceway for...

Re: Casino proposed at coliseum property would be awful for
Why do I have a very strong feeling that this Sands Casino will easily become a reality? As they always say, "Just follow the money!" There is too much money to be made with this proposal. Having the Sands involved as the lead on this proposal can only spur this to completion. The Sands n...

Re: Casino proposed at coliseum property would be awful for
Sorry. More accurately, Rabinowitz was named the NYS Gaming Commission Facilities Location Board. Shocking. My feeling when he was named to this was he was trying to be in position to help stop a possible Coliseum casino. What makes you think he now supports it? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Re: Casino proposed at coliseum property would be awful for
Don't worry; NYS only has 3 licenses to award and there are around 8 or 9 serious proposals. I would say this is the least likeliest of any of the proposals to be issued a license. I hope you are right and Stuart Rabinowitz is also part of the committee deciding who gets the licenses. My fear thoug...
