San Antonio sucks. Aside from an occasional weekend getaway, the city is a sprawling mess.

[Shelly]

Because you think a tornado could never possibly hit San Antonio?

[T Park]

I believe we've had Tornados roll through before.

If not them they sure threaten in the spring.....

[JoeChalupa]

I love San Antonio!!

[GuerillaBlack]

Uh...tornadoes can hit SA, and have before.

[RashoFan]

Very True, one tornando ripped the roof off apartment in Med Center and one tornando went between University hospital and the VA hospital(missed the hospitals completely) back in 1989. I think it was storms from Hurricane Gilbert.

[Shelly]

Uh...tornadoes can hit SA, and have before.

Uh...I know. His link was about the tornado that hit Atlanta. I was asking him if his reason for thinking the SA was so great because he thought a tornado could never happen here.

[mrsmaalox]

Possible torndoes or not, SA is the greatest place I've lived; and I've lived in a few places.

I can't do SA. Too small for my tastes.

Houston is waaaaaaaay to dark in the daytime.

Dallas is getting that way too.

Please keep San Antonio "dark-free" during daylight hours......in other words, stay the fuck out.

Someone from Houston said this ? lol I think you just hear that term so much it was the first thing that popped into your head.

Racist drivel. That's what.

I think he was referring to the nuclear cloud that lingers over the city.

You might want to look at that again if you are comparing Houston's sprawl to that of San Antonio.

The smaller you go down the list, the less relevant it gets. SA should not be grouped with the top 12.

[ChumpDumper]

The smaller you go down the list, the less relevant it gets. SA should not be grouped with the top 12.Sorry dude -- any way you read it, there is more sprawl in Houston.

[GuerillaBlack]

Sorry dude -- any way you read it, there is more sprawl in Houston.
Of course there is. Houston is almost three times larger than SA, so there will be more. Just like there is more sprawl in NYC than LA. LA has about 2,000+ more people per square mile than NYC.

Atlanta is the worse sprawl offender though. Now THAT is a sprawling mess.

[ChumpDumper]

Of course there is. Houston is almost three times larger than SA, so there will be more.Also Houston has fewer people per square mile.
Just like there is more sprawl in NYC than LA. LA has about 2,000+ more people per square mile than NYC.Which has nothing to do with your specious reasoning.

You don't like San Antonio because you don't like sprawl.

You prefer a city with substantially greater measurable sprawl.

There is a obvious disconnect here.

[Extra Stout]

wtf does that mean?
It means that he doesn't like black people.

[Extra Stout]

Also Houston has fewer people per square mile.Which has nothing to do with your specious reasoning.

You don't like San Antonio because you don't like sprawl.

You prefer a city with substantially greater measurable sprawl.

There is a obvious disconnect here.
Where did Houston fan claim that Houston is not a sprawling mess?

[ChumpDumper]

Where did Houston fan claim that Houston is not a sprawling mess?He just prefers the worse sprawl there.

I could ride the bus or rail anywhere in Houston. You can't in SA. SA is one big suburban city and the only part that resembles anything walkable are the areas near the Riverwalk.

No offense, but the city seems so slow and backwards. I would live in Austin anyday over SA.

San Antonio sucks.

I see you're posting here now Trae.

[Buddy Holly]

FYI, GuerillaBlack is a kid who lives with his parents and lives in either Dallas metro or Atlanta. He was born in Houston and rides that city's nuts harder than Lindsey Lohan and a real set of nuts.

Also, this clown is one big ass phony. He'll never give you a straight answer.

You actually should have read his response to his (probably first) visit to SA a couple of months back. Much different than his "SA sucks" stance now. :lol

Here it is:


SA is booming by the way. I have a new respect for SA after being here (am still here until later on today).

What enabled such a reaction. I mean "a new respect for San Antonio." What could have done that? Well....


All of the dirt [from construction sites]. I'm staying at my Uncle's house here on the NW side near Blanco. We were here for the Katy game.

We swooped around 1604 from I-10 on the east side, and it is like on both sides of the freeway there are developments (new and under construction) everywhere. They all look real upscale. There are a lot of midrises around this side where he lives, too.

I wonder if he'll say he isn't the same person?

[GuerillaBlack]

I see you're posting here now Trae.
Sirking right?

[Buddy Holly]

So you're not going to deny you're Trae? Shocked!

[GuerillaBlack]

So you're not going to deny you're Trae? Shocked!
No, because I am Trae.

[Buddy Holly]

Exactly.

By the way, I am not Sir.

[GuerillaBlack]

Exactly.

Shut the hell up.

I could. Maybe not rail (yet), but definitely the bus.

[Extra Stout]

I guess you didn't wander outside the Loop much.

[GuerillaBlack]

More like Southwest Houston near the Beltway and 59. METRO runs frequent routes down there when I use to live there. The West Houston suburbs (where I am at), not so much.

A lot of people believe that SirKingWilliam/Insomniac/210/micheleangeloso from the city data forums and sky scraper forums are all the same person.

Oh STFU. Its like the 8th largest city in America. It's smaller than Houston I know that, but SA is a big ass city. Just has a small town feel.

Well... in reality it's only like 30th because most American cities are surrounded by populous suburbs, but since this little kid appears to be arguing that Sugar Land, TX is the Xanadu of urban development, the sheer absurdity of his position makes that distinction moot.
