is playing at Buffalo tonight and they're tied at the half......wow.
Maybe a loss to Lemoyne runs in the upstate family
Buffalo isn’t upstate.
It’s WNY.
May as well be NW Pennsylvania. Or Canada.
If you think Buffalo’s not upstate, I have more than food to argue with yaI’m down for ten pages on what the meaning of “Upstate” is.
Yes this is Lemoyne.
But UB’s offense is scary good

I was just trolling.
But yeah, we could get a diesel thread on the OT board re: Upstate
You'll probably be fairly upset when they lose to Syracuse.Massinburg and Perkins are legit. They have a couple of other guards with swag and game too.

Buffalo is eastern Ohio or southern Ontario but no way upstate ny.

Upstate NY is everything north of NYC and is further subdivided by regions such as central NY, Western NY, the southern tier, the capital district, the Finger Lakes Region and others.
That is the most common and widely accepted definition.
You may not like it but you should learn to live with it because that's the way it is, and it's not likely to change.
I’m near poughkeepsie and when people refer to here as upstate it’s a real shocker. If this is upstate then what ya Syracuse? Upperstate??? Sheesh. It’s upstate to people like that because they don’t go past Rhinebeck, hudson, etc.I was watching Julia Roberts on Colbert the other night. She described the filming of her new movie "Ben is back", saying "We were in upstate New York". I wondered if they'd filmed anywhere near Syracuse. here is the Wikipedia page: Ben Is Back - Wikipedia
New City, Sloatsburg, Garnerville, and Haverstraw. The first three towns are in Rockland County, the last in Orange County. That's their idea of "upstate". To me the Hudson River area is a tributary of New York City and Upstate is everything to the west. Upstate is really more of a Midwestern area, economically and demographically.
When I worked for the Social Security office downtown, I had occasion to call someone in SSA's headquarters in Baltimore, wondering why they hadn't done something yet that would have gotten a beneficiary some much-needed money. The person I talked to was put off by my impatience and said to a co-worker "I should have known- he's from New York." She obviously thought that all of New York State was like New York City. She gave some excuse and I told her, "I should have known-you're from Baltimore." Maybe I do have a little of the Big Apple in me...
Ok I used to live near Rochester and you pronounce Lima like the bean and not like the city in South America. Avon is not pronounced like the cosmetic company. But Buffalo will always be Boofalo to people. What this has to do with this thread is nothing. I’m exercising poetic license.Upstate NY is everything north of NYC and is further subdivided by regions such as central NY, Western NY, the southern tier, the capital district, the Finger Lakes Region and others.
