I just want to assure the people of Pawtucket that a bunch of Providence natives don't want the PawSox to move either. I talked to a woman in a protest group this evening about the effect a stadium would have on the neighborhood. Plus Providence is a mixture of physically small as a city and also hilly. Like, all hills. Not really ideal baseball park territory.

what's pretty consistently true about these 'new stadium' deals is that they exist to enrich a very select group of individuals, while all the multiple reasons used to justify them to the public (jobs, revenue, etc) all turn out to be illusionary. come to think of it, john oliver did a very good take on this recently...
hadn't heard the name ben mondor in a while. talk about someone being 'an institution' - he was all that :) ...
Yeah, even most people who don't swallow the promises made to stop these projects, there's not much idea of actual resistance. Maybe they must don't have a clear grasp of what to do. r maybe they lack numbers.
