Message: [QUOTE="District-Husky, post: 4078439, member: 844"] Exactly. Sure - Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states may have lost population, but where did that population loss come from? Not the cities or their metro areas - but instead the rural parts of the states. Boston, NYC, Philadelphia, and DC all had population growth last decade (DC had an almost 15% population growth last decade and that was the 7th highest rate in the US). And comparing some huge suburb city in the sunbelt to the compact cities in the NE is not equitable. You have to compare sunbelt cities to NE metro areas b/c those sunbelt cities have enormous land areas. But anyway, the argument that we should have stayed in the AAC to play crap 4th rate southern state schools - because those schools fill-up a stadium with 35,000 people - is not a great argument.
