Damn people…let's all take a look in our own back yards before we start re-arranging everyone else's.
Does winning a big game really bring out this s**t?
C'mon man!

Ponyte, I was interested in your comment from your B school Dean. What did he say. I don't mean to derail but I find it interesting Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
His PhD thesis was on the decline of the NE as an economic center and the migration of that economic power to the South. It wasn't long after he completed his thesis that he moved to the South and pretty much stayed in the South since. He was incredibly insightful and he is the reason the Cox School is a national powerhouse.

I've not read the thesis itself. I read about it (summary form). He was evaluating the economic factors for success and identified the South as having the factors to encourage economic growth while the NE had factors that discouraged economic growth. I don’t know the details but one can imagine the decline of manufacturing and the growth of service and high tech as potentials.

In scientific terms, a theory has stood up to testing and based on knowledge that has been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experimentation so it could very well be Theory with capital T.

Hey country redneck hick from Arkansas: many SMU alums have lived in the northeast like myself and loved the place. I love the Hartford area personally and have lived in Boston and NYC. U could not pay me enough money in the world to live in countrified redneck uneducated ARKansas. Double my salary and I still would not go to that desolate cultural wasteland where u reside. Lots of crass rude uneducated rif raff in your sorry excuse for a state. Get a grip man before you start posting your drivel about another region of the country.

Making sweeping generalizations of a region or state, even arkansas (  ) is ignorant. Arkansas is one of the most physically beautiful places you could ever grow up, with incredible culture. I could say the northeast is just one giant trashcan filled with crass and rude sleezeballs. Check your grip yourself As for Dean Niemi - he occasionally teaches a class titled something like 'the history of business in america' that covers his former thesis, as well as discussions of the growth of major american industries, and current socio-economic issues. Really a cool class, and an easy A if there are any current bschool students reading

Oh don't stop with just Arkyland. I've lived in Tennessee, Texas and Louisiana as well. Please note, I never mentioned anything about the NE area except NE resident and current Dean of the B school wrote his doctorate thesis about the area's economic potential. His work, not mine. Yes, I did mention the butt ugly chicks at the UConn game but then that is a matter of taste. But you know they are ugly if a redneck hick form Arkylnad thinks their ugly even though they had most of their teeth. My published works include research of a cell wall protein C vaccine against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (nasty little critter) in a cystic fibrosis model as it relates to lung compliance (Chest, 1994). I also won a researcher’s award for that work. Sure, its back woods kinda stuff (disclaimer, I wasn’t in Arkyland at the time). I have a reprint left if you would like me to send it to you. Just let me know.

A lot of terrible people live in the Northeast. I've never enjoyed driving through Arkansas. That's my contribution to this thread
