They seem to be everywhere, though most try to avoid them. They're coming out more and more everyday. Each new member makes their ranks swell. They, of course, are the Red Sox fans of RU.

I know it seems odd, doesn't it? Lately I've noticed that I see a lot of Boston logos or "Yankees Suck!" t-shirts, which are only sold at Fenway Park, when I last checked. I gotta say that almost every time I see these guys, I stop them and say that I support their cause. After all, we New Englanders have to stick together down here in the wilderness of the southwest part of the state. But why are there so many Red Sox fans down here? Hell if I know; maybe they're proud of Boston teams since the Pats won the Super Bowl (the one time I'm not in New England for it and they win). Let's move on.

You may know some of the boys from Beantown. Manny Ramirez and Nomar (nomah!) Garciaparra are probably the best known.

The Sox were second in the AL East only to the Yankees, who by the way, suck! Back to the campus. We New Englanders came down here in search of one thing: cheaper college tuition! It's not a well-known fact that NE schools on average are more expensive, plus it's too damn cold up there most of the year, anyway.

And so we were thrust upon the shores of, um, well, I guess the New River works, holding only our hopes, dreams, and the crap our parents drove down with. We like it here, and we thank you for not kicking us out or trying to start a war with us again. Just don't ask us to root for the Orioles.
