Yeah it was done on the cheap.
But it was done. Kraft wasn't wrong in determining that he would do things the right way, which most often meant the opposite of the old ownership.
Seeing things from his perspective, it's understandable the decisions he's made. The Gestapo hired to handle stadium security when CMGI Field opened, for example, was unfortunate. But understandable. It is funny, how the Patriots used to be the league's problem by being ineptly run, falsely perceived as losers and on the brink of bankruptcy, and then remain the league's problem because the owner is too powerful and influential, and the team wins WAY too much.
But I really, really had fun going to games at the old stadium. I was just happy to be there and see the team. I wasn't there to complain.
And today, there's still things to complain about. Seats a mile away from the field, the more antiseptic atmosphere when tailgating, etc.
