So from what I can gather, this is what just happened between Villanova and the Big East:
|
|
BRO! |
|
|
BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! |
|
|
You ready to do this? |
|
|
You know it, son! |
|
|
Motown Philly, goin' on... |
|
|
...doin' a little East Coast swang... |
|
|
...Boyz II Men, goin' on... |
|
|
...not too hard, not too soft... |
|
|
Bro, I cannot WAIT to see PPL Park packed for Villanova-UConn. Big East Football, son! |
|
|
Hahaha...yeah. (pause) Uh........what? |
|
|
What? |
|
|
What the crap is a PPL Park? |
|
|
It's the stadium. |
|
|
What stadium? |
|
|
Our stadium. |
|
|
You're stadium? |
|
|
What is this, vaudeville? Yes, it's our football stadium. |
|
|
...Ohhhh...I get it. Funny, bro. FUNNY!
|
|
|
What's funny? |
|
|
It's a soccer stadium. I get it..."football." Good stuff. |
|
|
I'm serious. |
|
|
......... |
|
|
I don't underst- |
|
|
-Alright, I'm just gonna stop you right now. You're telling me that you would like Greg Schiano to get in his helicopter, fly to Philadelphia and coach THE Rutgers Scarlet Knights in a Big East Conference football game...in a soccer stadium? |
|
|
Well, it wouldn't be a soccer stadium when we're there. They'll put up Villanova banners and stuff. We're getting them made at FedEx Office. Really crisp. |
|
|
How many people does it seat? |
|
|
18,500. |
|
|
No, I'm not asking what the bare minimum is to play FBS-level football. I'm asking how many seats there actually are. |
|
|
18,500. |
|
|
18,500.......... |
|
|
We're talking to the MLS team that would be our landlord about expanding to 30,000. |
|
|
Have they said yes? |
|
|
Well, we don't know if they got our e-mail yet. |
|
|
Why can't you play at Lincoln Financial? |
|
|
Cause Temple is already there. |
|
|
Temple? MAC Temple? You're getting pushed around by TEMPLE? |
|
|
Well, yeah. |
|
|
......... |
|
|
What's wrong? |
|
|
Can you give me a good reason as to why we shouldn't just invite Temple back? |
|
|
Well, it's funny you should mention cause I was thinking that totally makes sense- |
|
|
-That's what we thought.. /click |
