I also love that you referred to shoveling as a winter sport...haha...I often say that it's the best winter exercise available.
Driving should also be considered a sport in MA, especially in Boston. I learned to drive in NH, and we would definitely refer to people from MA as Mass-holes. When I would drive in MA, I was scared to death. Then I moved to MA. I very quickly became one of those agressive drivers, and I completely understand why they drive the way they do.

And if you get the chance, go to RI. It's often forgotten about, being the smallest state, but it's beautiful. Go to Providence and experience WaterFire on Saturday nights in the summer (http://www.waterfire.org/) And hit up the beaches!
