READY FOR SOME WITCHKRAFT? PATS OWNER PROFIELD IN BOSTON

          Patriots Owner ROBERT KRAFT is profiled in BOSTON
     magazine by Steve Buckley.  Buckley: "Feeling burned by the
     media, believing that his words have been distorted and that
     his aborted attempt to build a 69,000-seat stadium in South
     Boston was misreported, Kraft has become a somewhat
     suspicious owner.  When Kraft speaks these days, his words
     sometimes sound as though they'd been first written down and
     rehearsed in front of a mirror."  Kraft: "I was naive.  I'm a
     lot more careful about what I say now."  Buckley concludes:
     "The worst thing we can say about Bob Kraft is that he wants
     to be loved, that he wants us to keep thanking him for saving
     the Patriots.  And what's wrong with that?" (BOSTON, 11/97).
