It helps recruiting and helps create a fan base. But the truth is the fact that the Yankees won a lot of WS will never have any impact on how a given year's team performs. It's the same with UConn. We aren't better in 2022-23 because we won in 1999.
This should be a very fun year. The enthusiasm around here is palpable.
I disagree!
So this minutes left vs. Points thing....
That's fair. Ohio is the midwest. That article is interesting. I never considered Minnesota or the Dakotas the Midwest. I connect them with Montana and Wyoming in that upper plains states category. Missouri, Kansas and Nebraska I consider the midwest, along with the three I states and Ohio and Michigan.

Minnesota and Wisconsin are about as Midwest as it gets.That's fair. Ohio is the midwest. That article is interesting. I never considered Minnesota or the Dakotas the Midwest.

More follow up to the original. Note that Missouri people consider themselves midwesterners, not southerners. But like Pittsburgh, I wonder if Springfield, MO would agree.
More Data Analysts Went Looking For the South And Midwest, And Here’s What They Found
Last week, we published the data from two surveys asking Americans which states are in the Midwest and the South. We asked readers to send in remixes they made …
Depends on your perspective I suppose.
Have had multiple interactions with family members(through marriage) who are natives of Wisconsin.. They would be highly offended if you said they were anything other than Midwesterners. Trust me on that.
Disagree. People in the south and midwest might be nicer to your face but they will talk about you the moment you turn around. It's a fake niceness. There's more BS. In the NE there's no BS. I llived in Virgnia nad have family in Georgia, SC, and Louisiana. Down there all the time.
None of those places are in the Midwest.
Yep, you would be correct on that one, but I'll throw the midwest in that same boat, based on my experiences. Nice to your face.
yeah, you do. all the time when you go to the super, to buy food.
I agree that southern hospitality is a mile wide and an inch deep.
In the NE there's no BS.
Pittsburgh is a fun city and the people are great. Lots of restaurants and bars. Been there in the summer a couple of times and took in some baseball games. Very scenic city.
Which ones would you most want to date?
I travel work a ton, I know I'm at the right gate to fly into Bradley from wherever I am when I look at the people sitting at gate and say to myself "ugh" . I truly don't need gate number any longer.
I'll be deep in the cold, cold ground before I recognize Missourah.
I know many have nothing but negative to talk about CT, and many try to get out as soon as they can. I only lived in CT for my four years at UConn, and essentially never went beyond a ten-mile radius from campus. My out of state brethren and I would always joke about how much CT sucks.
Nope.
Tons of sports bars and Rivers Casino sportsbook as options. Decent odds that if you wear UConn gear at the bar, a Pitt fan will mention how much they miss playing UConn. We're not a huge hoops town and it's likely more screens will be hockey than hoops, but any good bartender will give you a screen to watch.
