It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Foxboro is much closer to the Ct and RI borders than three of the 4 states you mention. And I'm in no way discounting those states. Northern VT is one of my favorite places on earth.
To the guys calling out Providence, you all are extremely misinformed.
The only Giants/Yankee fans are transplanted PC, RIC, Brown, JWU or RISD students.
Providence is HARDCORE Pats/Celts/Sox/Bruins. There's no New York bias of any kind.
Legs and eggs special from the Foxy Lady!!!!
We can all boycott watching the opening Pats game - Sunday Night Football on the road in AZ. If we could pull off a huge ratings drop in NE and/or the rest of the country for that game I would feel like we are doing at least something to get back at the NFL. We can all find out the score the next morning. It will be tough not to watch but we need to take a stand. I am encouraged by what happened last night. People clearly didn't watch. Keep it going Pats fans.
We can all also try not to watch the NFL special opening game on Thursday night or any of the preseason games.
But many of us do, so boycotting that game (another NFL "extravaganza") will be easier than not watching the Pats.If it's not the Pats, I don't bother with Thursday night garbage.
They are dead to me.I'm a little upset with Providence....
@MikeReiss
For ESPN's coverage of Day 1 of the NFL draft, the Boston market did a 1.5 rating, last among 56 metered markets.
@MikeReiss
Additional ratings info from ESPN's coverage of Day 1 of NFL Draft: Providence (3.4) and Hartford (4.5) fell below 4.7 national average.
Draft ratings down from 5.1 to 4.7. Mission Accomplished.
I expected the "Metropolitan" area that is so close to Gillette to put up similar numbers to Boston, which would have moved the national numbers down another tick or maybe two.To the guys calling out Providence, you all are extremely misinformed.

I live in NYC and I didn't watch either Thursday or Friday and I'm surrounded by Patriots haters. It wasn't that hard to do! Why couldn't those "HARDCORE" fans, who live among other "hardcore" fans, have done the same?
The Numbers talk. Everything else is baloney.
Then I got older and transferred that love of the game into coaching. I spent close to 20 years teaching the game to kids from 8-15 years of age. But it was during that time that I became disenfranchised with the administrators of the game and the players. It seemed like they took the fans for granted and I walked away from MLB and have never looked back. I don't regret it one bit.
But Providence? Providence that we call a city only to be respectful!?! No excuses! You wanna root for the NYFL, get on the goddam Amtrak and move to New Jersey...and don't come back! The hell with the lot of you!
And, who made up the 1.5 in Boston? You can all go pound sand too!
Baseball is too boring to watch. Can you explain to the uninformed what exactly MLB did?
And does anyone know what the tv ratings were for Day 2 in the New England area?
Your boy is from CT... die hard PATS all the way, love my state too buddy! Don't be so quick to judge CT cuz you think it's NYHartford is NY anyway so, f em. But, way to go Pats Nation.
