How old are you? I ask because I've seen you make this same, tired statement here and elsewhere but I've never seen you give any sort of reasoning for it. You just sound like a tweenybopper hater.

I don't have to, because it's my choice not to do so. Further, the poll speaks for itself, more people are in favor of Virginia than NC.
Oh yeah, our college sports are better too. Thanks for pointing that out.
Little off topic because this isn't my opinion on the actual cities in NC, but there's no way your college teams are better. Other than UNC and Duke basketball, there isn't much else. Georgetown and Maryland have good basketball, Va Tech, Maryland, UVA are all good/decent for football usually, Johns Hopkins and Maryland are top notch for lacrosse.

Georgetown, Maryland, and Johns Hopkins aren't in Virginia, so I don't know why you are bringing them up. Wake Forest and NC State have decent sports programs as well, and Davidson also does pretty good in basketball. But the fact that UNC and Duke dominate college basketball is enough to make a case for NC versus Virginia which has teams that just do okay in certain sports.

3 of the universities you mentioned aren't even in the state of Virginia. If you're going argue something, at least understand what it is you are arguing.
NC State won that game in every category EXCEPT the final score.
They looked a lot better than VA Tech, so hopefully the Wolfpack will still have a great season. I'm a Wake fan, so I just have to turn my head elsewhere for most of football season.
