  1. Well it looks like the city is diving in head first and the train has already left the station. Ozedmir and Keystone group have deep pockets but no match for the city and the outside investors that’s all teaming up to push this project. Hogsett knew leaving the meeting in NYC all the boxes the city must check off before The MLS league will approve an expansion in Indy. This is exactly why he’s so confident at abandoning The Eleven Park project. Im starting to see the writing on the wall. Hogsett is making sure his legacy will be that of bringing another professional franchise to Indy during his administration and it seems he just might have the BIG BOYS and GIRLS to back him. Might as well get on board cause MLS is coming to Indy rather you’re for or against how it gets here.

    1. So Kevin P you’re saying the fix is in? The deal is made? Besides the city, who’s the players? The confidence seems overwhelming. You must have inside info.?

  2. As a soccer fan who has attended many Indy Eleven games over the years, I can tell you right now that I won’t be setting foot in that poser stadium on principle. From talking with many others who actually attend soccer games, I can tell you that sentiment is real and pervasive.

    The city’s soccer fan base has been here, loud and proud, with Indy Eleven. David Ziemba’s column in the IndyStar said it all about where Indy soccer fans stand on this. It’s unfortunate that the mayor is willing to destroy soccer in this city, but that’s exactly what is going to happen, and that’s a very sad thing.

    1. This is standard operating procedure…win win for MLS…either way destroy the USL team.

      That said, I’m sure would attend games for the hypothetical MLS team… especially if Indy11 is squashed

    2. a pervasive sentiment for the 5000 Indy Eleven fans? big city citizens don’t care about minor league sports. get over it

    3. That’s odd….the youth soccer feeder programs all showed up at the Council hearing to support the city’s position.

      You might be in an echo chamber.

  3. I still have to wonder how much environmental remediation the AES site will need. AES has dozens of former substation sites around the city they have never put on the market. I am guess the reason is there is a strong chance that transformers with PCB contaminated oil were on this site, and that during routine maintenance on these transformers, the PCB contaminated oil was dumped or even sprayed on the site as weed control measure.

  4. Nah. Cold day in hell before that happens, which it likely won’t anyway. Hogsett and Dan Parker’s little MLS dream is a fool’s errand.

  5. Better than stepping foot on a mass large disturbed burial ground and being cursed every time I enter the stadium. It was a long shot for Ersal, failed twice. We, as season ticket holders from the get go were promised better accommodations. It happened for couple years at LOS. But then back to Carroll stadium…for more years that Ticket office has been indicating. So yeah some season ticket holders are frustrated and ready to move beyond building on a cemetery. Let the bodies rest

  6. So who’s going to pony up the $500M league fee, or the salary for the players. Building a good team is expensive. Good players = more fans. This is a billion dollar stadium easily.
