Message: [QUOTE="CaptainJ, post: 1996154, member: 1553"] I think possibly the biggest factor Storrs had it's advantage was that the rivalry was far more [I]current[/I]. I mean it was in the NOW while some people were won over. The in the now with Georgetown feels more like a prehistoric thing where belief comes into play, not disimilar to religion. I cover this more later on. It's something even some of the fans who experienced the Georgtown hatred were able to use as a replacement to fill that void. It's similar to finding a new romantic partner, and suddenly(even if the new partner doesnt quite measure up to the old one in your current opinion) the one you couldnt live without is a memory that doesnt bother you and/or attract you the way it did before the void was filled. In short, I think it's subjective, depends on experience, and how strong memory and attachments are. I dont have a horse in this race. [/QUOTE]
