I know this is a real generalization, but from what I have observed over time, the South per capita just has better athletes in every major sport compared to other regions of the country. I see that right now watching the college world series. Conferences like the SEC, ACC and Big 12 have more than their fair share of top 10 teams in every major collegiate sport, and even the minor sports, and that includes the fact teams from up north often raid the South for talent (esp in football).
Am I wrong to believe this? And if I am right, what is the reason? Is it the weather? The hot chicks? Or something cultural?
