According to Newsday, both the Mets and the Ducks have made proposals for the minor league stadium that would be built along with the new Coliseum.
The Newsday article says that not much has been released about the plans but the plan made by the Ducks would result in Nassau getting more money then the Mets plan. They say the Ducks plan would get Nassau $200,000 more dollars then the mets proposal.
Personally, although a Nassau/Suffolk rivalry with the Ducks would be cool I hope they choose the Mets plan, because I think that if people know that the Mets minor league team would play there you may get some people who are Mets fans but not Islanders fans to vote so they'd be able to see the Mets top prospects at very reasonable ticket prices to. The Newsday article said Nassau should pick a proposal within the next two weeks.
It should be interesting which proposal they pick!
