GOLO, thank you all so much for the great suggestions yesterday for the Top 10 list of reasons why Carolina is better than Pittsburgh. That blog had more than 200 comments!

If you don't know what I'm talking about, you can read all about it in my blog from yesterday.

As promised, some WRAL folks took on the tough task of sorting through your suggestions, plus some ideas from WRAL people, and came up with our own Top 10 list of why Carolina is better than Pittsburgh. 

The morning news anchors announce the list in this video!!!

Or, if you prefer to read a transcript, here you go ...

"Good morning KDKA! It's your friends from WRAL in Raleigh. Home of the Canes! We have to say, our viewers got fired up over the top 10 list you sent us!  So -- with the help of some of those folks -- we came up with a top ten list of our own. Here goes... why Carolina is better than Pittsburgh:

  • 10) The Durham Bulls could probably beat the Pirates.
  • 9) What would you rather see in the sky -- Carolina blue or Pittsburgh gray?
  • 8) When North Carolina beckoned, Bill Cowher came BACK.
  • 7) Gov. Rendell is really a Flyers fan.
  • 6) Pittsburgh has four seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter and road construction.
  • 5) "Y'all" sounds so much nicer than "Yinz."
  • 4) Hey Pittsburgh, the 80's called. They want their hairstyles back.
  • 3) We have the Outer Banks, you have Lake Erie.
  • 2) Nobody ever relocates to Pittsburgh.
  • 1) Our Staal didn't have to go to his big brother's house to hold Lord Stanley's Cup!

Remember our little friendly bet. Our team wins, you're wearing Canes jerseys...Go Canes!"

Once again, thank you all for the suggestions. Feel free to create your own Top 10 list of your favorites and post it below!

- Kelly H. (WRAL.com web editor)

I love #4, #5 & #6...too funny

Those are good.

I love these...especially #1!!! Woohoo! :)

Those are great

lol..those are awesome! 1 and 2 are good, but #4 cracked me up

Kelly, why don't you put the name of the Goloer beside the one they submitted!

Wish #1 said "see" the Cup instead of "hold" the Cup. Pretty sure Jordan did not hold or touch the Cup when Eric had it.

Our list was MUCH better than KDKA's list! Good job!

Good idea, Dr. Karl. Unfortunately, I'm busy at the moment. But if anyone else has time to look through yesterday's blog comments and give credit to the GOLOers who are featured in the top 10, feel free! - Kelly H.

You can keep your list. Us Penguins fans will gladly accept a series victory over anything as silly as this. Being 2-0, I think we're on target to do just that.
