Damn if your gonna pull a gun at least steal something of value, not a bag of fruit snacks. And in their own dorm, what dumb asses. These guys could end up in the Big House over a bag of candy, If they do they better PC.

Springfield used to be the "City of Homes". It's sad to see what it has become.

I never got that nick name "city of homes" of course its a city of homes.

I think it is because of the Victorian mansions (many of which are now multi-family rentals).

Like Hartford, it's become a "city of homies", I guess. I wouldn't wish Hartford on anyone...maybe you guys could put roadblocks and checkpoints on I-91. It's not like it would slow it down any.

This genius move was followed by trading out of a spot where they could have gotten the last decent receiver in Robert Ferguson and settled for tackle Matt Light, who will not help any time soon.”

I grew up in Springfield and still live near there while I work in Hartford. They are both a mess.

Oh, and traveling on 91 to and from Hartford sucks. Thank God I am in a carpool.

I'm a transplant to the Hartford area. I grew up in Virginia Beach and lived in a bunch of different areas. Hartford (and Connecticut in general) is probably the most dysfunctional place I've ever lived. The northeast in general is an enigma to me sometimes; some great characteristics, but some things that make me want to get the hell out.

That's the truth. I try to avoid going up I-91, but when I do (usually to the airport), I hope and pray I've got someone to go with me. It probably saves 30 minutes.
