VIDEO: 15,000 Fans Rally to Send Patriots off to Super Bowl XLVI

The New England Patriots held a Super Bowl XLVI rally inside Gillette Stadium Sunday before departing for Indianapolis, where they will play the New York Giants on Feb. 5.

  FOXBOROUGH – Roughly 15,000 fans from all over New England gathered inside Gillette Stadium Sunday to send the Patriots off to Indianapolis for Super Bowl XLVI. Patriots owner Robert Kraft and the New England Patriots organization made the event free to the public and gave players and coaches an opportunity to address Patriots Nation before leaving town on "business." Perhaps different from other Super Bowl trips in recent years – five in the last 11 years to be exact – the Patriots appear to have a renewed sense of focus and are determined to do whatever necessary to win their next game. Both Kraft and Patriots linebacker Jerod Mayo said the Patriots were headed to Indianapolis to "take care of business." That business, for many fans, …

Question of the Day

Question of the Day: The Right Decision?

Did Foxborough selectmen make the right decision last night?

Last night, the Foxborough Board of Selectmen voted 3-2 to draft a letter to Governor Deval Patrick, the state gaming commission, and Bob Kraft and Steve Wynn saying they would not support a casino in Foxborough. Arguments were made for both sides. While proponents think it would bring jobs to the town, opponents cited traffic issues and decreased property values. If Easton was in a similar situation, how would you want our selectmen to vote? Do you think Foxborough selectmen made the right decision?
