              But remember: none of these teams can possibly budget for a stadium.

                With as much money as the Shield has, they should just buy a huge tract of land, create their own taxing district, and build the stadium and ancillary stuff. It gets paid for by the issuance of tax free bonds issued by the Shield's own taxing district.

                  As a moment of begrudging appreciation for Kraft and his franchise, the Patriots built Gillette Stadium without public funds. I'm not certain about the infrastructure surrounding the stadium, but the building itself was completed without public funds. It was something of a minor coup against the league at the time.

                          Hadn't thought of that. As NE they can play six states against each other.

                            This is why you should have stayed in Mass, Kep. To my knowledge they are the only state legislature who ever told an owner to go screw when the guy had a signed, sealed and delivered taxpayer funded windfall lined up from another state. Not only was CT offering a new stadium on the taxpayers' dime, they were going to guarantee Kraft a sell-out, as in they'd buy up all unsold tickets, for the next 30 YEARS!!! After taking the offer back to Mass, they told him to pack his bags and basically called his bluff. Several years later the Red Sox showed up looking for money and heard basically the same story. We'll pay for some small infrastructure improvements and that's it.

                              Boston is lovely in the Fall. I would have been perfectly happy to stay there, with one small tweak.

                                Not exactly. Boston is still the major market and the major draw area. Start moving to Hartford and the Boston fans start leaving.
