    Seattle is pretty unique in that it is a massively important U.S. and world city yet the local university garners a significant amount of local attention and is actually IN THE DAMN CITY and super close to the downtown core area. And is a major university both in athletics and academis.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_city
    U.S. cities ranked higher or equal to Seattle:

    NYC- no football, Rutgers is not that close
    Chicago- Northwestern? Lol.
    L.A.- USC, UCLA
    DC- Maryland isn't close to downtown
    SF- Cal. Too high
    Miami- The U's well documented underachieving is well documented
    Boston- LOL
    Atlanta- Ga Tech is so far down on the attention list of southerners
    Dallas- Fighting MBAs
    Houston- no P5 team
    Philly- no P5 team
    Denver- Boulder is not in Denver
    Minneapolis- Minn sucks
    St. Louis/San Diego- I'm not sure how they are Seattle's equal, but no teams

    GTFOOH with calling Oklahoma City and Columbus and Nashville as cities on the level of Seattle. They might be to people from those regions, but that shit is small time.

    If someone wants to go to college in a town where the college is the only thing going on and that's all that matters, that's fine, good for them, but our brand should be if you want to play big-time football for a big-time coach while going to a big-time school in a big-time city, your only option is Washington.

    While everything you've said is pretty accurate, and I want people to feel this way...growing up in Los Angeles and living in the Bay Area now, no one gives a shit about Seattle in either place. no one wants to live there, as sad as it makes me.

    That’s not true, it’s got a growing group of white nationalists thanks in large part to the techies moving in.

    Californians are fucking retarded. I hate everyone in/from Cali that didn't go to UW. Using Cali opinions to norm society is what gets you fucking Jake Paul, Maroon 5 and Katy Perry on the radio.

    Jake Paul is the living embodiment of Southern California. Fucking nuke it.

    It's sad to see how far the So Cal music scene has fallen.
