A private school in modesto known for recruiting athletes, mainly basketball players, throughout the central valley that enjoys beating up on small schools and losing to teams of equal or slightly worst talent.
Modesto Christian has 3 players on their team going to D 1 schools, another playing small college ball, and one of the top freshman in the nation i think its guanteed they will win division 4 state title.
Don't get too excited they lost to Branson a team comprised of less talented white guys that actually plays defense.

Get the Modesto Christian mug.Composed of 12 states. Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan, Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, and Michigan. Can be further subdivided into the Upper Midwest, Lower Midwest, and Great Plains. Great Plains: Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota. Upper Midwest: Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan.
Lower Midwest: Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio. All the lower Midwestern states have major Southern components to them in their Southern portions due to their touching the MAson-Dixon lines in their Southernmost areas, but are generally Midwestern everywhere else. Kentucky is also often included but is the South due its location below the MAson-Dixon, which is the 36 degree latitude line across Missouri (meaning just about all of missouri is in the midwest) the Ohio River, and the Maryland-Pennsylvania border.

I'm north of the Mason-Dixon line I have no accent, I don't drink sweet tea, i'm in the middle of the country, i don't touch any oceans, I'm east of the Rockies. I'm from the Midwest.

Get the Modest Mouse mug.The "Minnesota" accent is actually called either the Upper Midwestern Dialect or if you are talking about northern MN it is called the North Central Dialect. Both of these include other Midwestern states as well. The "Minnesota" accent is influenced by Scandinavian and Canadian dialects. There is a large population of Norwegian immigrants which is where a lot of the speech traits come from. The Upper Midwestern Dialect is the most common throughout the state. This includes traits like elongating vowels, esspeciall O. The North Central Dialect is more of the stereotypical "sing-song" kind of accent. Many people with the North Central Dialect will use V in the place of W. Turning "Well" into "Vell". Another reason for some of these differences is because many languages that influenced these dialects do not have many of the same phonemes that Standard American English has. So there you go... an indepth analysis of the "Minnesota" accent. (And trust me... Minnesotans do have an accent. I grew up there and then moved to the west and people catch it all the time!)
