I don't understand the post, so because a state has something we don't have what about us?

How about we start with a professional sports team besides minor league baseball and women's basketball first.

Yes let’s throw 4 billion dollars on a stadium in a sub scale market so some asshole can mint for 10 years before abandoning us for a real market

Those are not mutually exclusive in any way

Well, I don’t understand this reply. Attracting production hubs and sports teams are completely mutually exclusive. Both would be nice?

But yeah, NJ and CT have similar tax breaks for entertainment and both are in the NYC metro. So yes, if they can attract something this big, we can potentially attract smaller projects at the least.

Netflix already does location shoots here FWIW.
