And Mass. will probably wind up losing money on the deal.

We don't pay off billionaires. Very progressive of us!

Look at Murph showing his true colors supporting the millionaire thieves at FIFA and the billionaire class!

Have to agree.  Talking heads around here, all caught up in the shiny object of the moment, complaining that we missed out.  Saying that, if Walton/Penner owned the Doncs in 2016, they would have ponied up enough to get us a gig.  Maybe, maybe not.  They're billionaires for a reason.  Let's see what the various accounting depts have as a postmortem.  And yes, FIFA is in serious need of Dude Wipes!

Gillette Stadium is owned by the Patriots, who paid for it themselves.

It all depends. Boston has a huge advantage in that there is adequate mass transit from the city center to the stadium, and the city is designed well. They *printed* money this week.

I've seen very little influx in the Bay Area, but it's been a pain in the ass if you were near the stadium. Places like KC, with FIFA keeps all the in stadium concession revenue and there is nothing near the stadium for ancillary businesses to make money. Chicago might have a shot, with Soldiers Field having a better proximity and big hotel inventory.

What it really came down to though, is luck. Boston got Scotland for 2 games and also England. The Bay Area got Algeria and Jordan. Npt only do they not travel, they don't drink!

Ok. It is also not in Boston. In fact it is a further drive time from Boston than Hammond is from Chicago. I drive past Boston and Foxborough annually. And you want Illinois citizens to pony up for the Bear. What did you pony up when the 49er moved out of SF?

Still glad the Third World Cup is not here!

Drive?

There are direct trains from South Station to Gillette.

I don't live in Santa Clara, don't care if they blew up their tax dollars.

Gillette Stadium, home of the New England Patriots, is in ... *New England* . Maybe if you actually made that drive you'd know it.

Looking forwards to your public campaign to rename the Bears the "Midwest Bears"

Awesome. Have fun on the train.

You let the 49er AND the Oakland Athletic leave SF/Oakland! Not to mention the California Golden Seals back in the day!

I actually have made the drive quite a bit. I also will be making it in 2 weeks.

You realize they were the "Boston" Patriots until they moved to Foxborough? Murph = Tempo is a match. Neither one knows historical context but continue thinking they are making "gotcha" arguments!

LOL.

You can drink on the train. Of course, you just drink and drive like god intended.

LOL.

The real historical context here is Patriots have 6 rings this century but Bears fans say "checkmate Massholes, we beat you 42 years ago!"

Thinking they would say the drive from Boston was worth it during The Brady Years.
