My hope is that his signing will at least help us hit the Jets membership target of 11,000, help them sell maybe 2 or 3 thousand Heskey Jerseys and Boost crowd averages to around 15,000, with more people coming depending on how well the Jets are playing as a team.
These kind of numbers will make the signing of Heskey a break even prospect financially with anything above that being a bonus.
