What the $!8# is with the dig on our grocery stores?

That's what irritated you about their anti-NJ rant? Too funny.

[itsmejpt]

Meh. A) He isn't saying anything anyone from NJ hasn't heard millions of times already. B) He's from Arkansas.

Plus it was just such a weird insult.

Was the Arkansas guy saying giant grocery stores are better? That's what it sounded like. So he likes shopping at a giant Walmart, rather than from a small "mom-and-pop" local grocer? Kinda weird. Maybe cuz Walmart is based in Arkansas?

[ArmyVet]

I really like the Pirates here. Good luck guys.

What he left out of his rant was ... "and they don't even let you marry family members in New Jersey"

Funny, Arkansas is the only state in the union I have not visited.

Actually, there is a lot to like about Arkansas, particularly the northern part of the state. And a kid just found a 7.2 carat diamond at Crater of Diamonds State Park, so there's that. But, man the crack about roads is just comical. At least half of the state highways in Arkansas are 2 lane winding roller coaster rides with no room to pass slow cars, and little apparent rhyme or reason to why they wind this way or that. Hope Seton Hall kicks their butts.

Fans over on the Arkansas boards are very confident, mostly predicting a double digit win for them. Some of them even think they'll blow us out by 20+. I'd like to say they're delusional, but doing so would probably jinx the Hall into throwing up a stinker.

I fully expect Seton Hall to win and it not being particularly close.

I did once. You're not missing much. You can't buy beer or alcohol in a vast majority of the state. The counties decide if they are dry or not. Apparently the kids at the university would have to go on 2 hour beer runs to Missouri to get alcohol.

That should tell you all you really need to know about that state. That and the confederate flags all over the place.

My first 'favorite' team was the late 80s/early 90s Arkansas team with Lee Mayberry, Todd Day, and Oliver Miller. I remember wearing an Arkansas hat to Disney World and some guy yelling 'Woooooooooo, Pig! Soooooieeeee!' at me and I had no idea what to say to him.
