Razorback Comment

vdog has left a new comment on your post "Razorbacks":

What has happened over the past several years is the NW part of the state has separated themselves from the rest of the state. This created the division between the fan base.
Currently there are two statewide call in shows, message boards, and blogs.

.............................................................................
Really NW Arkansas has always been seperated. The governor rarely comes to NW Arkansas. The TV market is seperated. Given a choice of Little Rock or Tulsa (about the same distance) most folks in N.W. AR will go to Tulsa.

Speaking as someone who has lived in Southeast, Central, and (now) Northwest Arkansas, A.J. is right. Northwest Arkansas has always been a 'stand alone' area of the state. I've been here 10 years now and for a long time I thought the division was as a result of people here in NWA. But, now, I think it's as a result of jealousy and comes from the rest of the state. Most people that I know in NWA don't have a grudge to bear against Central Arkansas or any other part of the state.
