What do you NOT understand about this? How MANY times do people have to say this.
PEOPLE IN THE NORTHEAST ARE INTERESTED IN PRO FOOTBALL OVER COLLEGE FOOTBALL!!!
Do I have to repeat myself again?
So? If you are a kid growing up in the NE and you like football and have aspirations of going to the NFL, guess what you go to college first. Typically with the exception of the top 2 % of recruits, kids go to colleges, relatively locally. Your theory is incorrect and oversimplified, and you yelling that you are correct and talking down to people is totally out of line.

No, your theory is incorrect. I LIVE here unlike you. Therefore, I know what goes on here.
And me putting capital letters is not out of line. Myself among many others have stated since page one of this thread that people are not into college football or anything under that level in post after post after post after post after post after post. Now, there is ten pages with many people saying the same thing. Yet people can't seem to grasp that concept when people in the northeast say we are not into college football or anything under that level.
Let me reverse the question to the south. Why does the northeast dominate the south in hockey? Why doesn't the south put any players in the NHL? The answer is because people in the south don't care about hockey. The exact same way people in the northeast don't care about college football or any level underneath colllege football. Some people watch it, but it takes a back seat to NHL, MLB, NFL and NBA.
Do I need to repeat myself again? There has been 10 pages with people repeating thmeselves over and over again.

I actually didn't really state a theory that could be called incorrect. And I have lived in Chicago, NJ (ocean city) and now am in NC, so once again, you are speaking in inaccurate tounges.
Putting capital letters and acting like you are the absolute authority on something does not cater to a conversation, in which clearly not everyone agrees with you. It is also disingenuous, but I love the ole, "I live here, so I know what I am talking about." Well silly me, I bow to your omniscient authority.

No, you are speaking incorrect.
The only people that don't agree with me are the people in the south. I think it goes right over their head when people in the northeast say they are not obsessed with college football like them.
I assumed the capital letters would help people understand. Since page 1 people have said over and over the answer. Yet they quote them and say "no, there has to be more than that, I don't buy that answer." That has been going on for 8 pages.
I think most college football teams in the south have a larger attendence rate because they lack major professional franchises. Collge football is all they have out there.
For instance in the bay area we have cal and stanford but we also 7 professional teams that we can go watch. September can get crazy here because we have college football going on and we have the giants and A's still palying baseball and then we have the raiders and 49ers starting their season and we also have the warriors playing. So sometimes college football gets overlooked because we already have so many pro teams in our region.

There is everyones answer. Same for the northeast. Last post on page 2.
What is so hard for people to understand about that concept? Ever sense that post was made there there has been 8 pages of people repeating themselves.
And this explains the attendance, and certainly may be a factor in the matter at hand. Some of us like to explore all reasons though, and not just focus on one and act like it is the sole reason, as I said, that approach is oversimplified (ironically you yourself have described it as simple many times, noone disagrees with that assesment of your stance). Anyways, I'll step back from this thread as its getting a little out of hand.
