You ask, "What does NYC know that Rochester has yet to figure out?"

The answer is that NYC knows that it has a municipal population of over EIGHT MILLION to draw from, as well as a Metropolitan Statistical Area population of NINETEEN MILLION.

Next question?

A high level of contention exists between the two, evidently.
This led to coaches being assigned to both (a fact not mentioned in Rice's public letter, nor commented upon in Towler's oped), and continual reports of
friction/dysfunction between them.
