With what looks more and more like a Patriots move to Hartford in 2001,what
does this mean for WBCN's status as rights holder for Patriots' radio
broadcasts? Does anyone know when the current rights expire? I'm sure once
the Patriots move to Hartford,radio stations there will try to outbid one
another to acquire the rights. As far as TV goes,this will mean no more
home game blackouts in Boston as Hartford is more than 75 miles from the
game site.But I would guess that Boston TV stations would still cover the
Patriots no more or less than they do now.
