    70E to 81N to 78E to 287 to 95N.

    As far as places to stay what are you looking for? If you want cheap there is a Super8 about 15 minutes south of Foxboro in N Attleboro. If you want to gamble, Foxwoods Casino is off of 95 in Connecticut. If you want to stay in a city, I would recommend Providence over Boston.

    There is not much between Foxboro and Boston and the price will increase as you get closer to Boston. Boston is farther away from Columbus as well.

    The Super 8 isn't a bad little place.

    I remember it not costing too much when OGHT and I went last season for the 4'th of July match.

    Great breakfast as well, but not much to do in the area.

    One can find inexpensive places to stay near Providence, R.I., which is much closer to Foxboro than Boston.

    In addition, Southwest flies to Providence.

    Thats a ************in helluva drive Robbiegoal...3stripe and I drove it on the night last year after beating San Jose so we could go watch the US/Holland match. I'm guessing its better in the daytime...and less drunk...but good luck man, I hope you can make it out...

    I think you'll find staying Providence cheaper, but there is much more to do in Boston... Foxboro is further from Boston than you would think and I hope for your sanity that the traffic and parking lot access has improved since last years USA/Holland match. Otherwise leave for the game early.

    Pay you r kharmic debts

    It takes about 15 hours or so to drive the distance. So you are thinking of going to the Indian casino ? Getting gubbed by the Revs again won't be enough losing for you, then. I have a better idea though. I don't know how much money you were planning on spending in Fox woods, but I will save you the trip. We can meet before the match and I will offer to pass on at least some of your money to the Indians, minus my "administrative costs". Hey, you did steal their land, so its all justified at the end of the day.

    Cheers,

    "Red"

    quickest way.

    go to the NY State Thruway (I-90) which hooks up to the Mass Pike (I-90) which takes you to Boston, consult a map to see if you take the 495 outer belt south or take 95 south to get to foxboro. I-80 across Penna. is ususally a pain.

    Lets see...our defense allowed LA one chance two weeks back, (which was a shank by Mais) that Ruiz burried. And saturday night I think Bush only had to make one good save. People just seem to still believe that the Crew defense is the achilies heel of this team, but in my opinion its become one of the top 3 or 4 in the league. Hejduk's adition was huge, only people who haven't watched the Crew in two years wopuld think that Clark is too old to play, and only people who haven't seen Dunseth in 2 years would think he is the same player now. We have a very strong defense, and thats without even mentioning Busch who led the league in GAA last year. I just don't see how a team with no creative attacking midfielder and one decent striker puts three by us on Saturday. Our defense has quietly became a real strength for this team and if some people are too busy to take notice, qwell its their loss.

    I definitely think Jeff Bradley is too busy hitting the NJ Crank scene with his brother to get a dose of reality in there when making his predictions. First off, the Revs "returning hero" got a red card in like his first 20 minutes of play, and won't be playing against us.... gee, wolde harris is still around? I mean the only thing the crew have to watch is Ralston and preventing Twellman from getting service. I think this is a 2-0 win for the Crew

    Bradley is a dunce.

    Busch currently has the best GAA once again in the league. Our midfield has allowed the only goal scored against us.

    Final score -- 2-1. Twellman is going to get a lucky bounce, just like Ruiz.

    Noway Yitbos! Before we've been able to either shut down Ruiz or Twellman... since Ruiz got in on us, there is no way that Twellman will. Shutout #2 of the season for Busch is coming up baby!

    The Crew will win again.

    0-3 will be the final.

    No excuses about the Moriella game, but they were missing 3 defensive starters. If the Rhino's were missing three defensive starters I'm sure even the Indiana Blast would take them.
