LOL, during the early 2000s housing boom, developers started referring to Tracy as " inland Bay Area " in their promotional materials. It actually gets quite ridiculous.
Yeah, it's probably mostly out of laziness. Instead of having to explain where Los Gatos is, it's easier to just say "Bay Area" and be done with it.

Also, if I lived in Gilroy, I would claim to be from Monterrey. Way cooler.
:nono: Gilroy is the cut-off for Santa Clara County, it's a rule they have to claim Bay Area. That fuzzy area from Salinas to San Luis is Central, I think. Then you start creeping into the real shitty "SoCal" region.


Fuck the Dodgers!!

Santa Clara isn't part of the San Fran metropolitian area. It is part of the San Jose metropolitan area.
ok...I'm not that tied into what makes up the metro area, but in terms of TV markets...they incl San Jose with SF.

It's one big TV market because they are fairly close to each other.

Yeah. Californians likely know where San Jose is.

But if you asked the average American where San Jose is, I bet you wouldn't have too many that would be able to find it on a map.

That's why Dionne Warwick had such trouble.

:wtf: While you are correct that they are officially two separate MSA's, I think this is what everyone has been trying to explain.

I'm mostly not being serious here. My initial point is that having the Niners play in Santa Clara while still calling them the San Francisco 49ers is pushing the limits of a team playing for one city over another.

I couldn't care less what you call the Niners, although I personally prefer the Whiners.

But I would say that calling them the San Francisco 49ers while they are playing in Santa Clara is really pushing the boundaries of common sense.

They don't need to call them the Santa Clara 49ers. But how bout a little respect for the larger than San Francisco city that is 10 minutes away?

My first post in this thread.
