This is my first attempt at a new topic so please forgive me if I placed it under the wrong discussion or if someone else has already used this story. (I debated where to put it: City Dicussions or Sports Talk. Could go either way.)

 

I thought this article at gcbl.org was so interesting that I had to link it. Here's a snippet:

 

"What follows is a description of the relationship between a city and its sports, with the intent to show how this relationship is affected by a region's identity, as well as the ways we go about the process of city-building."

 

And here's the link:

Wow, it didn't take long to find exactly what you were talking about.  Felt like I was back in Honors English Comp. where the teacher thought it would be a good idea to spend a whole semester describing our surroundings and their relationship to "nature."
