Syracuse is in the national spotlight after the Orange men's basketball team made an improbable run to the Final Four. That means plenty of talking heads will have something to say about the city in the coming days as Syracuse prepares to take on North Carolina on Saturday night.

Brian Jones and Gregg Giannotti of the CBS national radio show "The Gio and Jones Show" had an interesting back and forth on the city of Syracuse on Monday morning.

"You know the thing I don't like about them?" Giannotti said. "They say, 'We're New York's team. We're New York's team.' No you're not. You're not New York's team. You're Upstate New York's team. You're Central New York's team."

"New York City and like Central New York. It's a long way away," he continued. "It's not really this area. People talk differently there. They look differently there. It's sort of Midwestern. They look differently. They're all pale. They're zombie-esque. They've never see the sun. When the sun comes out they shrivel up. You've never seen whiter people in your life."

A Syracuse native then called into the show and called the city a septic tank.

"There's nothing to do besides cheer for a horrible football team, watch the curmudgeon Boeheim ... things like apple picking was one of the big events they would talk about," the caller said.

The show's hosts got a good laugh over all of it. Expect plenty more people from outside of Syracuse to chime in with half-baked opinions on the city.
