    North Jersey here.


    No way. You are drawing the parallel way too far South. I would put it somewhere around Exit 130 on the Parkway. Below that is South Jersey. Central doesn't count. They are only wealthier South Jerseyans.

    I've been PM a lot about where I'm from. I'm from my momma and daddy's loins.

    Then why do you keep trying to sire a butt baby? ;D

    Because that baby will be richer than Anna Nicole's kid.

    So, is it safe to say that there might be an East Coast bias in the national sports media?

    No one in Mercer County, or Middlesex or Monmouth counties for that matter (130? c'mon), consider themselves to be South Jersey.

    North Jersey begins where the diners call it Taylor Ham instead of Pork Roll.

    Who knew Jersey was so vast? Try telling Californians that SoCal and NorCal are the same ...

    I'm not sure where that line is.

    I would say the line is somewhere around Exit 7 of the Turnpike/mid-90s on the Parkway... or just a little south of 195.

    You could make an argument for Bordentown being south Jersey and you could make an argument for it being the northern most part of central Jersey.

    Depends on which part of Jersey you want to put Mastori's in.

    May the Lord strike me dead before I find myself in southern New Jersey and eating something the locals refer to as a "pork roll."
