Nice post. I have mixed feelings about the proposed stadium. I get that it would be a positive for the team and will certainly improve the atmosphere. Playing on real grass would also be a plus. I've been going to Foxboro for Revs games since the very first one and have been a season ticket member for many years. I rarely miss going to a Revs home game. Getting to a stadium in Boston with no parking is going to be a major hassle for me. That, combined with the change in the timing of the season, will probably limit my attendance at Revs games to a couple of times per year. I'll probably end up going to Pawtucket for my live soccer fix instead.

It makes no sense to me to build a much smaller stadium with limited parking while professing to trying to grow the fan base.
Nice piece, John....well written, thanks!
