I suffered from CEG Blackout for the last couple of days, I've been dying to get back to this thread...

And that was BEFORE the Red Sox won the World Series, and the Pats won this year. Need I mention the UNDEFEATED BC Basketball team? Who do you think will win it this year???


Right. CNNSI called Madison, Wisconsin the best college sports town. Now, do the Badgers dominate anything?? Best city in sports doesn't necessarily mean the most dominant, obviously, since it was written before the Red Sox won anything.

Interesting you bring up that great BC basketball team....

Blah blah blah blah blah I'm a northeast elitist blah blah blah. As a matter of fact, Omaha is home to what some call the most exciting American sporting event, the College World Series. If that means anything to you. Lincoln, Nebraska, is home to what many consider some of the greatest college football teams ever (consensus has that the 95 team was the greatest ever). Please don't make me dig up magazine articles for you.

The New England Patriots reside close enough to Boston to be considered one of Boston's teams. As much as it pains me to see it, the Boston area has been fairly dominate compared to other cities/areas in the last 5 years.


What about Los Angeles? A World Series championship (as many as Boston), three NBA titles (three more than Boston), and a hockey team that went deep into the playoffs (deeper than any Boston team has at least in the last five years).

Cliff's Notes: Don't believe the hype.
