That are from NYC, definitely. However NYC also utilizes the horse and buggy, so I'm not quite sure what to think anymore. 
I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, um, some people out there in our nation don't have maps and, uh, I believe that our, uh, education like such as, uh, South Africa and, uh, the Iraq and everywhere like such as, and I believe that they should, uh, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., uh, should help South Africa and should help Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future.andy7171 wrote:Well look at a map.

But get outside of that corridor 20 minutes east or west and its all farms and forests.
Hell, I do THAT to get to work.kalm wrote:We have to travel at least 4 hours, over 2 icy, cougar and bear infested mountain passes, ford a dozen raging rivers, cross a great desert full of rattlesnakes and ticks as large as a dog or small child, navigate the Columbia River Gorge, and avoid 3 active volcanoes just to reach our two nearest conference foes(Montana and Portland State).

That's not to mention negotiating the hostile sneers and staring of the slack jawed locals at way stations like the Montana Bar or Biggs Junction while stopping for a beer or to gas up.

Especially in the new stadium.ur76spider wrote:Concerning the 8000 or so JMU fans at last year's UR/JMU game being dubbed "JMU East".... If UR continues to win, hopefully you JMU fans will have to "fight" over the 1000 tickets that will be available to the visiting sxhool!
The people that live in Baghdad would be scared in East Baltimore.wideright82 wrote:andy7171 wrote: And with all that ruggedness, you be scared sh!tless standing on the corner of North Ave and Broadway in East Baltimore on a Friday night.
The people who live there are scared. Gives me the chills just thinking about it.

Isn't Baltimore a suburb of Towson?andy7171 wrote:Metro Towson?CAA Flagship wrote:The $17 is well worth it to avoid local (another tunnel), DC and Towson Metro traffic.
That's just about the same distance (travel time) as going to JMU. Save us some seats and we'll be there.
that's exactly where i went with that too...JayJ79 wrote:kalm wrote:We have to travel at least 4 hours, over 2 icy, cougar and bear infested mountain passes, ford a dozen raging rivers, cross a great desert full of rattlesnakes and ticks as large as a dog or small child, navigate the Columbia River Gorge, and avoid 3 active volcanoes just to reach our two nearest conference foes(Montana and Portland State).

Most away games (most of which I go to) JMU brings 1-2k fans.JMUpurplehazed wrote:One thing I like about the CAA is that many of the southern schools are close enough that the number of traveling fans is growing.
If the other schools admit it or not they love playing JMU at home b/c JMU draws their own fans and JMU brings 4,000 (anyone) to 8,000 (UR) tailgaters.
UR last year, at least 8,000 JMU fans...UR stadium was dubbed JMU East for three hours...
WM this year, sold out weeks before the game...I can't guess how many are JMU...
Liberty (non-CAA) last week, I'm guessing 4,000 JMU fans traveled to sit in a typhoon...
ODU vs JMU could fill a 40,000 seat stadium in Norfolk now...
I hate VCU and GMU b/c that would add two more big FCS schools in CAA country...GMU would support football out of the gate. VCU, maybe not b/c the City of Richmond won't support anything but kids eat free buffets at western sizzlin.
Hazed, you probably got loaded at Hams beforehand and your estimation skills were severely hampered. Last week I was there. There was certainly under 2k JMU fans there. No where remotely close to 4k. Now if it hadn't been a downpour all day, maybe JMU would have had 3-4k....danefan wrote:The people that live in Baghdad would be scared in East Baltimore.wideright82 wrote:

Do people outside the northeast/mid-Atlantic think there is no wildlife/agriculture here?
