Default Where to go? What to do?

Im considering a few different plans right now and was wondering if I could get some input from all of you.

I live in Rochester NY and when Colgans crew base pulls out ROC we will have no crew bases anymore. The next closest (for my times) is SYR with Colgan 1 1/2 hour drive from my house. Piedmont in PHL or LGA and from ROC have about 6-8 flts a day to both LGA and PHL. Finally is Eagle (which I work for on the ground now for the past 7yrs) and would pick ORD since thats the only place Eagle flies to out of ROC with 4 flts a day and about 4 pilots do the commute right now. My biggest question is...with a family in ROC and not wanting to move anytime soon, what would be the best choice of those three airlines and bases. Which would give the best QOL? Im not conserned about flying one route all day, week, year like might happen with Colgan. I love to fly and just want to get going. I like Eagle but is it worth it to stay with them just b/c I have time? What about Piedmont...would it be easy to get to PHL or LGA (I know there a lot of ATC) What about their trips are they out and backs or overnights...4 on 3 off?

I hope in all my clutter I might be able to get some suggestions and help...thanks in advance!
