Yeah, I also don't anticipate getting flat tire, but I have a spare just in case.
I don't expect the power to go off at night, but I have candles and a flashlight if they do.
I no longer live in WNY. But when I did I packed a survival kit in my trunk in case in case I got caught in a blizzard, even though I didn't anticipate that happening.
I have fire insurance for my house, even though I don't anticipate that either. And car insurance, even though I don't expect to get into an accident.
Smart people prepare for "things that will never happen." Because sometimes they do. Do you think the development guys at Fairfield went to work one day thinking, "Today's the day Leo's going to give us millions."

Oh my God this guy! Might be the lamest analogies ever.
I'm sure Canisius has a rough idea of what they would do if 50 million dollars got dumped in their lap but I also highly doubt that they sit around discussing it or giving it any real thought. And no I'm pretty sure Fairfield knew Leo was going to give them a lot for a long time. And during that long time, they formulated an actual plan. That was the time they planned. Do you honestly think Canisius has this master plan with a post-it on it saying "When we get our Leo, this is what we will do!"? But until we get that money, we will just continue to plan and plan and plan. And while I'm at it, I'll make sure I have candles in my drawer in case the power goes out.
So you want us to believe that the point of your endless rambling posts about a new arena - even though you say you NEVER said they would actually build a new arena - was to simply share with the people on this board the value of planning and preparing?

Re: My stalker is back -- What Are You Trying To Say?, Thu, March 30 2023, 16:56:05
Anyone who has season tickets, goes to games, talks with others, lives in this area, etc. knows damn well that a new arena is not even on the radar. So why even bring it up as any type of an option? Real or imagined.

What am I trying to say?
* That spending millions to refurbish the KAC is putting lipstick on a pig, and a stopgap measure at best.
* That someday CC will need a new arena if it wants its basketball program to regain MAAC/regional prominence, like Iona's.
* That the school should have a plan in place for when that day arrives.
* Why bring it up? Because it has to happen at some point.
Some of us can imagine/dream of a future when we're not playing in a high school-level facility.
