Most people from New England don't drop their Rs as much as the stereotype might make you think. "Wicked hard" is the one you're more likely to hear, unless your girl is a dockworker.

I get that you're a Devils fan because the Whalers left you, but how are you a Yankee and Giant fan as opposed to a Red Sox and Pats, and even Bruins fan? Just general dislike for Massachusetts/Boston?

I'm closer to NYC than I am to Boston. CT is split pretty much geographically between NY teams and Boston teams. Some people I know even mix and match, like a Yankees and Patriots fan.

I remember being at Cape Cod a while ago and a couple from the Hartford area was explaining the geographic loyalties of sports fans of their state.
It's somewhat similar to the way NJ leans either north or south depending up what town you are in.
They were both Red Sox fans and I told them it must be awful to see the Yankees win all the time-later that year the Red Sox finally won the WS and I thought of that nice couple.
