ESPN Title Town vote

[patriotspride]

It depends how far back you want to go. This decade? Boston is the only titletown.

go back to the fifties boston is still title town.

I’d have to agree, “title” is the key word here and if you sum them all up (all pro and college championships) there is a strong case for Boston

Go back to the 20's and it isn't. After all, the Yankees alone have one less championship than the Red Sox, Patriots, and Celtics combined. Bruins do have one more championship than the Rangers, but the Knicks add 2, giving Boston one less title when just comparing the 4 major pro sports. Of course nobody cares about titles won 80 years ago.

 

[JAYHAWKS34]

That gets ridiculous though they have so many professional sports teams in the same city, gives those cities an advantage
I realize you could play devils advocate with this comment but I was just throwing it out there

Let's put it this way, if I went on a rant against Pujos (and no, I don't know what they are either), you'd wonder why my name was Pujo despite my hatred for them.

The Patriots and Boston never had much in common even when they were
playing there and named after the city. They were like homeless street people
to the city. Hey, if you want to shower Boston with the title go for it. The
Sox have two championships in the last 90 years and the Celtics one in the last
25. Bruins can't sniff a playoff much less a championship. Sounds good to me.

I think BP's wife must have died or something because he's been a hurricane of disdain lately.

Nice, real nice. FU jerk!

And what pro football team do most football fans in Boston watch? Really, are you insisting that Boston merely includes championships won within the city limits of Boston, as opposed to the general area? I can guarantee that's not what the poll is about, else Foxboro would have been a seperate choice.

The Rhode Island Patriots?

We've got no chance against Massillon, Ohio

Right, They got game.

The Bruins made the playoffs this year...

I don't know, I feel like I'm selling out if I vote. What next, do I need to vote in an ESPN "Who's Now" or "Who's Hot" contest? I feel any vote is a vote for the dumbing down of sports, a vote for style over substance. I fear that every vote is sending a message to ESPN that sports fans are more interested in gossip than in insight and analysis. Besides, I'm still trying to avoid ESPN as much as possible.

This contest is so friggin stupid. To actually have shyt stain cities like Valdosta, GA in the competition is ridiculous. Obviously it is Boston hands down, why even waste people's time every night with a profile of some god forsaken place with no chance in hell.

 

[bakes781]

I thought this segment would've been cool, but yeah when they started including small cities like that I was turned off. They should have a seperate distinction for them IMO. Speaking of Boston I wanted to see how my new sig was looking. It refreshes on it's own so I'm pretty proud of this. lol

 

[WeLovethePats!]

my vote is in!

 

[JAYHAWKS34]

Results come out tonight at 6 any predictions of the top 5?
I’m going

Boston
Los Angeles
NY
Detroit
Chicago

 

[N0vice33]

Wow, what a joke that was. 5th place... are you kidding me

 

[pheenix11]

Valdosta won? What a friggin joke. The only thing this crap town is known for is producing 3 brothers who share the same pulse.

 

[fair catch fryar]

It's ESPN. Most of those comments are knee slappers.

One of the biggest knee-slappers came from Bballerforlife in the comment that the site uses for Boston and he says one of the reasons Boston should be picked is because BU has won 20-something Beanpot Titles. I guess he doesn't realize that only 4 Boston schools(Harvard, BC, BU and Northeastern) compete for that title.

 

[AStack75]

Val...who?

I'm kinda glad they won. What a six month (or whatever it was) long waste of time this was.
