That'll show 'em
New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority president George Zoffinger has told the New York Post that if New York City goes ahead with luring the Jets and Nets across the river with subsidies, "I could come up with a very aggressive plan for a baseball stadium and shop that to the Yankees and the Mets." This isn't likely to lure either team to relocate to New Jersey (especially given Zoffinger's previously stated convictions on subsidizing billionaires), but it could do wonders for the two baseball teams' faltering campaigns for donations from the Big Apple treasury. It would also make Arthur Rolnick very, very sad.
