A team that gets stomped by Purdue aint a pro team (no matter how much Ohioans like to pretend)
Still Columbus is a bigger city than most

I put the finishing touches on my T-55 model tonight. It's looking mighty spiffy. It came with Soviet and East German options and a conversion kit to turn it in to an Israeli Tiran. I threw the Israeli shite out right away and was contemplating making it half GDR and half Soviet but went full Soviet instead.

To be fair the flag is seen less and less as a Southern thing in the Midwest and is becoming more and more common. I see it a fair amount up here, somewhere deep in the woods nearish to Canada, being flown by people who have no ties to the South and view it as a political statement.

I've built a Stuka, a Panzer IV, and a Sd.Kfz. 251 in the last six months. Gotta balance things out lest people get to thinking...

I gotta give it to Clevelanders with the Browns.
Those are some loyal motherfrickers.
Once Carolina hits 0-3 BOA is empty or majority the opposing team if it’s someone like Dallas, NY, Pittsburgh or Washington

I went to high school with a quaker who's family had lived in the area for decades. Wore a rebel flag shirt that said "its not hate its heritage".
I have an ancestral line that runs back to the late 1700s in Vincennes (ancestor got a land grant for fighting with George Rogers Clark). All of the Civil War soldiers in that line were Union, and I just assumed most areas of Indiana would have been the same at that time.

The KKK started in Indiana. No surprise with the confederate flags.

Yeah its kinda odd. I have ties to both the confederacy and the union (thanks to having family from Kentucky/Virginia)
My family originally was gifted land by the British crown in Virginia thanks to one family member's service as a Captain and privateer for the royal navy.
Most however in central Indiana don't really tend to have confederate ties, and as such I find it kinda cringey when people use the rebel flag. Even with my ancestry I don't fly the rebel flag because Im from the Midwest, not the South

Don't worry, I give the people I know crap if they try to talk to me about IU, Purdue, or Notre Dame being better than UK.Posted on 12/12/18 at 1:22 pm to thatguy45

I don't think anyone in my class went to Notre Dame. There are some that got in IIRC, but its expensive AF so its not really worth it when you can get a similar degree from a state school (debt vs that academic prestige).
Even when I went over to a different school for a career center class, I didn't know of anyone going to Notre Dame. Met one gal that decided to go to Tennessee though (go figure)

The actual pie.. not the women. I dated a Hoosier farm girl for a while. Hoosiers have some redeeming qualities.

Some of them can be a little nuts but so it is with women in general.

Yea seems like a school with a lot of people from the Northeast.
