    Count me in as a fellow Illini that doesn't like da bears (sorry Chicago... just growing up in Southern Illinois, gotta root for the Rams, CARDINALS, and the Blues)

    Yeaaaaaah Cards! I'm also from Southern Illinois!

    I'm living in Central Illinois now, so I gotta include my Illini in the sports teams I root for! ;)

    haha of course you have GOT to include the Illini in anyone from Central Illinois, even if I attend Tony Romo U , I mean Eastern Illinois University.. Go Panthers.... seriously, go win a game sometime :p

    I told you. You have to define your territory and limit it. Otherwise, every German, and Seattle-ite, and their uncle, is gonna claim they are a Midwestern.

    I think you have to define your geography here. I am seeing posts from South Dakota, Kansas, all over. i don't mean to argue with those people if they are committed to the idea that they are Midwesterners. But, gosh ! Kansas is the Great Plains. South Dakota is the West. People in those regions are much different from Midwesterners. I would consider someone from Missouri a Midwesterner. But Kansas is a whole different donkey. North and South Dakotans have a lot in common with Minnesotans. But I have lived in Minnesota, and you can tell when you have crossed the state lines. The land opens up, and the people do too.
    C'mon, folks ! Let's get this right. Next thing you know, somebody from Ohio is going to claim to be a Midwesterner !

    Maybe you need to study up on your geography a little. https://www.census.gov/geo/www/us_regdiv.pdf Just sayin'
