Gadsden Number 1
These are the 10 states whose city with the lowest life span ranks at the lowest end of the state-by-state list nationally.
Gadsden
> Life expectancy: 72.9 years
> Obesity rate: 33.8%
> Poverty rate: 18.4%
The average Alabama resident is expected to live for 75.2 years, the lowest life expectancy of any state other than Mississippi. Life expectancy is even shorter in Gadsden, where the average resident is expected to live for just 72.9 years — the lowest life expectancy of any metro area in the country. Unhealthy behaviors among Gadsden residents have likely contributed to its low life expectancy. Of all Gadsden adults, 26.0% smoke and 33.8% are obese, each higher than the national smoking rate of 20.0% and the national obesity rate of 27.0%.

I believe Life Expectancy is just one feature of the ranking.
ETA: Actually its states with cities that have the lowest life expectancy.

Well, Alabama isn't #1 in football. So there's that.

I guess that is further proof as to why West Virginia should be in the SEC

We are reeeeeaching now.
Anything, anything to take away the pain of Saban being at Bama. The insanity continues in the state of LA.
BTW, just last year, LA was 4 spots ahead of Bama in obesity. In other words, you were fatter. Just sayin. Polls and all, ya know? You can make em look anyway you want. This was probably done by some other LA resident hurting from Saban.
