Salt Lake has had ABA efforts as well, so he may be correct in referencing Utah.

My friend's daughter goes to Cortland. I hope she ends up smarter than this. I couldn't see at the Aviator Center where there are bleachers in the gyms. Maybe they exist, but I don't see where any revenue comes from. Sponsors? Joe probably thought Onez Onassis was the Greek shipping tycoon. I am sur...

X and Z are the only letters of the alphabet not represented with a failed ABA team. I work with small businesses professionally. The standard rule is you work like a dog and no money out for three years. Hiring a GM, assistant GM, head coach and so on as full-timers is folly for an ABA franchise. T...

Evidently a team is going to try again in Syracuse as well. The last edition lasted about six games. Maybe a spring pro team could make it in the Salt City, but good luck competing for the basketball dollar against Syracuse University.

The Belmont site will likely become a casino now that NY will eventually be siting casinos in the state. It's the natural Long Island site for one. Cosmos attendance and the economy likely will keep them at Hofstra for a bit. It would be nice if Hofstra will expand the place to 20K or so, though it ...
