Yes. Winners live in the north and losers live in the south.

You just compared Brentwood, 8.3km from downtown to Indus, 38km from dowtown.
That's the problem with you Southies. You forget where the actual city is you're so far away and think that Indus is somewhere convenient to play hockey.
P.S. Going to work at 7am is stupid and not normal. Please use driving times that will get you to work at 8 or 8:30 when normal people start their day.

We don't forget where the actual city is considering downtown is in the south.
South rules.

To us, downtown is the "North" end of the city. Anything north of that is irrelevant, and may as well be another city. Southies rule. Also, Indus is a convemient place to play hockey.

The word you're looking for is quadrantist. Quadracist sounds like someone who is four types of racist.

Only if you choose to hide yourself in the dark barren corner of the city known as the Southeast.
North 4 eva!!!
And why do you care if downtown is in the south or not, it's so far away you'll never bother going

High five!
Should we call ourselves 'foursies'? Or how about '4 Quads'? Clearly we are the coolest.
