what cracks me up about this thread are those who are screaming about their city being bashed have no other retort than to bash another city. "MY CITY ISN'T ALL <insert stupid stereotype> BUT YOUR CITY *IS* <insert stupid stereotype>". Classic.

Someone could say the exact same thing about Houston. Houston is (literally) a summer hell.
Really? You're stuck inside in the summer in Houston? That's likely because of a poor diet and generally weaker genetics of northerners. Running 5 or more miles in heat and humidity is a great workout and easy breathing on the lungs. You just prove my point, thanks!

Hahaha, good one. Try being in training camp or conditioning camp in June/July/August in Houston and then come back to me.

What color is the sky in your world? Most people would not say Miami or Boston over Chicago at all. Most people in the world already know about Chicago. It's name is one of the top brands in the nation. Most people have a vivid imagination of Chicago because of it's world class skyline and museums. They have two of the top world class universities in the Chicago area alone.

I think outside of this forum people put other cities ahead of Chicago. Cities like Philadelphia, Boston, Washington D.C., Miami, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Seattle.
