I’ve always kept an open mind regarding a new stadium, but I think that price tag is why I’m having trouble being enthusiastic. It just seems like a bad deal for all parties involved.

There’s some mind blowing stuff going on in my area. Not to go off course, but I question how much longer I want to be in this state everyday. It’s a shame that NY’s filthy hands need to get anywhere near this stadium stuff. 1

It's even crazier when you find out who runs the buffalo mafia I've been great friends with the family you're referencing for several years - they have no influence or membership in Local 210 any longer, and haven't for a long time. 3 1

Well they certainly did back in the day... whether they have much influential now is debatable And Dominic violi has been arrested in the last five years as the underboss and talks about the family on wiretap ...

I’m guessing it won’t but they have to set an outside limit because you really can’t go back and get more money on a project like this. And remember there’s a difference between project cost and construction cost. They’re often confused.

Not even in the slightest. They have zero influence or involvement with Local 210, or any other labor union. Both my dad and grandfather worked their entire careers with Local 210, and I've been extremely close to that family my entire life. There's zero debate. And don't name drop. There's nothing you can tell me that I'm not already aware of. Edited August 28, 2021 by Patience 1

What's the story? There's zero involvement from the family you cited in your initial post. There's no story. And no, nothing says differently, at all.

Your link states nothing in support of that. Once again, no story. And, once again, there's nothing you're able to tell me I'm not already aware of.

I should have said had hands on everything I was kind of half-assing that the mafia is actually playing a part in negotiations... Obviously politicians... They did have a hand in unions back in the day But it fits because of the history of the mafia in Buffalo.. which is undeniable and there's been more reports of it recently Which is why I jokingly included it.. I'm sorry for offending you Edited August 28, 2021 by Buffalo716

I already said that should say had not have which is past tense... It's a grammatical error It's a fact the FBI is still here investigating it They did run unions back in the day, which is why it was a fun thing to add on.. because the mafia exists in Buffalo Edited August 28, 2021 by Buffalo716
