Stadium at Columbia U is just too close to Yankee Stadium where NYCFC plays. And transportation is not that great at Columbia as it involves a 1/2 mile walk from the subway. Also extremely small amount of stadium parking around. Parking on the streets is tough.
Flushing was always the place to be for me: http://www.empireofsoccer.com/queens-borough-president-opens-door-for-soccer-stadium-57401/
Yep, I just got this e-mail from Stover, here is the excerpt. Selfishly hoping for MCU. "Our new home will be announced this week. We are excited to bring you our loyal supporters an enhanced match day experience including improved food and beverage options.
Yup, MLS definitely has a lot more recognition in the Queens presidents thoughts. She probably hasn't heard of the NASL. Will this Queens president be able to overcome the community backlash the 1st time a stadium plan was floated (in Flushing)? My guess is that she is thinking about the Aqueduct racetrack for a possible stadium. There are plans to improve the area around Jamaica LIRR station. A new stadium at Aqueduct could could supplement those efforts (Jamaica LIRR and Aqueduct is a 10-15 min train ride away via Airtrain JFK->A-train).

Because it's all part of the cabal's plan, man. The Italians could be a superclub and win the CCL, but Garber and the lizard people who live under the Denver airport can't allow that to happen.
Interesting option for the Cosmos or NYCFC just outside the Bronx: http://www.lohud.com/story/news/loc.../memorial-field-seating-25-k-seats/314348001/
The Brooklyn Italians were a super club until Lucio some how got control of them. His problem he never had any money of his own. I am not even sure he loves the game. There was a time the guys with the club loved the game, and thought it was an honor to play and to coach for the club not now.
apparently NYC FC is looking at the Belmont property... http://www.empireofsoccer.com/nycfcs-architects-visited-belmont-site-64411/
