Washington DC is the south
Now, if you're through making an idiot of yourself over the whole "Washington, DC, is IN the south" thing, could you get back to the point of your original question?

I'm not saying JL should start by any means but I think he can be a good qb in time. I went to the spring game and saw the same guy as last year he just is not ready IMO but does that mean he won't be later in the year? I don't know, like it or not he is #2 and if JJ gets hurt he will be our next option not RS.
+1 RS hasn't had enough time to learn the whole offense yet. He is only going to perfect a certain few plays that he can run well to throw a wrinkle to the defense.

I told you, you're right, racism doesn't exist in the south. gosh!

here's the "south", if you want to be educated:

In present time I don't think you can consider DC south
But he originally asked me about living in the North, and I presume he meant culturally (which is why my answer was, "compared to Louisiana, yes"). And of course culturally, DC is almost the most un-Southern area of the U.S. I've ever been.

i've lived in virginia, even more southern virginia than you are, and virginia isn't the fricking south

Located midway between New York and Florida, Virginia is the gateway to the South. It is also sometimes classified in the Mid-Atlantic region

wrong about what? i've lived all over this country. virginia/DC area is not the south.

actually, the most "unsouthern" area of the US would probably be the west coast or north east.
as neither have any southern culture or heritage.

Man, I'm glad I wasn't educated by you! And where in the hell did you find that definition of "the South"? Central Texas and Knoxville are not part of "the South"?

Wow, this has become a geography lesson. Ok, I'll bite. My wife is from Virginia. She has reminded me that Virginia was the heart of the confederacy. Rural Virginia is very much like rural Tennessee. I think many equate "South" with "republican", but Virginia is still pretty even there.

quote:Yes, which is why I said DC was "almost" the most unsouthern. I was thinking specifically of New York and L.A. I've only been to Boston briefly, and just a few trips to Philadelphia, but both of those seemed to have some Southern-type qualities (though presumably from different influences that just happened to have similar results).

However, because I could not be certain of what your question actually was about, I added the accurrate clarification that DC is technically "in the South." How was I to know that you suck at Geography?

quote:Which, according to TheDoc, is also in "the North."
Rural Virginia is very much like rural Tennessee.
quote:Virginia is pretty divided along geographic lines. Northern Virginia, the area right across the river from DC, is democratic and pretty liberal (though not nearly to the extent in either that DC is). The rest of the state is largely republican to varying degrees. My general impression is that the further southwest you travel (towards Bristol, Lexington, etc.) the more republican it gets. But my friends in Richmond say it's pretty republican there, too. Of course, they're pretty liberal themselves, so San Franciso might seem republican to them.

well, i've learned all kinds of things today.
blue states are "southern"
miami is "southern"
Lee is going to be a NFL quarterback
and that virginia is the "gateway to the south"
even though I lived there for three years, and there is nothing southern about it.
