Well, yeah, when making that comparison, sure. It's been 25 years since I lived there. It was fine for what it is and the surrounding areas, but I certainly don't miss it. All of my family except a brother still lives out in that area now, but he'll be gone in a couple of years.

This is more in the vein of Roll Call, but Annie Agar's meetings are usually pretty good. She does NFL versions of this too.
