The real Titletown (LASportsC)

[Lee3691]

So Boston fans are counting titles won by a franchise that does not have Boston in their name nor even plays in Boston (and in fact is closer to another major city than it is to Boston), but seem to want to ignore title won by teams actually in the city for college football & college basketball. Gotcha.

Not trolling at all. Counting UCLA is hilarious. Don't see us counting BC or any of the 50 other colleges located in Boston. brb going to check if northeastern wrestling came through last year.

Grab a map. Point to Boston. Realize it's in New England. Sound smarter.

That's because the college teams in Boston have never won a college football or basketball championship.

Maybe you guys should have waited for the Clippers to win a ring before you bumped this.

[Lee3691]

Good luck Boston - only 15 or 20 away from L.A!

this keeps getting worse. We can't count college hockey?? But you have no problem counting pro hockey?? Being bitter is one thing but you are just making a fool of yourself now.

This has to be one of the dumbest things I've ever read.

Boston patriots changed their name to New England and is 30min from Boston. You do know Boston is in New England right? Serious question.

Pretty sure New York has more than Boston and LA, so you both should go back to your corners.

Chicago has more than LA. LA is not even in the discussion until you start counting college crap.

Grab a map. Point to Boston. Realize it's in the United States.

You might as well claim all of the United States gold medals for the past 100 years too.

Well this is just stupid.

[rickyh24]

Good thing for NCAA basketball. Philly would be close to catching LA if it didn't exist.

[Lee3691]

Have fun pretending Boston is titletown ya'll - gotta take the lil one out for Halloween.

Peace

It makes it better to not realize that the Boston posters are different people

This thread again?

[javierm27]

America is title town fuck the Euro's and the rest of the world. Woo woo!

[aeroshady]

Had this argument a while back with Lee. It is just stupid. LA is not title town...get over it.

[Lee3691]

If Boston is "titletown" how come most of the prominent athletes who play professional (or have recently, and won titles) want to live in L.A? Even the most famous Boston sports fan made that choice. The best athlete in the history of the city hates the city, and hasn't been there in nearly 40 years (approx).

I know that Boston sports fans, to make themselves feel more important, want to make the absurd rules of what counts as a title and what does not. Counting hockey titles even though it is barely more popular than soccer (or is it), but not college football, which is probably the second most popular sport in the country? Now, if Boston wants to call itself "Pro titletown", that would make more sense, but they'd still be behind NYC.

Well aershady, Ricky and pathetic have decided major college sports don't count, but hockey does, so shit, we should just close the internet now.

winning apparantly isn't as important as living the LA lifestyle and making it rain. gotta have a special type of player to play in boston

Bottom line, you don't get to count some College sports and dismiss the rest of them. It is either all or nothing. I have literally never heard anyone count College sports in this discussion except for here in ants in this thread. To me (and almost everyone else) it is just dumb to include them.
