I'd have to say Denver for skiing or Miami for the beaches
I have to say, I love San Antonio, but only because it's my hometown (and because of the Spurs of course.) As far as being a place to live, San Antonio is not so great, which is why I don't live there now. Aside from the Riverwalk, it's really a very unattractive city. Nothing but a bombardment of tacky billboards and ugly strip malls. It's just not a fun vibrant city like Austin or so many other places. Sorry folks. I only speak the truth.

I have lived other places and to ME it's the people that make San Antonio....I would never say SA is in the top 10 for beauty etc, etc... I didn't appreciate San Antonio until I had moved away for an extended period of time, and let me tell you I will not be making the same mistake again..SA is not for everyone I'll give you that, but for me, it is.![]()
I'll grant you that. Definitely, the people are the best thing about SA.
Jelly, where do you live?
I live in the D.C. area. Currently, and temporarily, staying in the Virginia suburbs and looking to move to a new city, which is perhaps what inspired this thread.
:vomit :vomit :vomit :vomit
I lived there for 17 years. It has the most obnoxious, self-centered bunch of sports fans in existence.
Of course, these are the same fans that hated Bill Russell while he was there. Once, somebody broke into his house and took a in his bed.
That's what I tell her but she says she doesn't care. I'd be Boston Strangler II if forced to listen to those fans on a daily basis.
Or the ones that booed Manny Ramirez last night. WTF, the man just lead you to a World Series win for the first time in 500 years and you boo him less than one year later?
Class.
Umm, you speak opinion, not truth, get it correct.
And yeah, SA is very unnattractive, those hills in the north are down right ugly as .
And I hate like a motha having to drive through Alamo Heights. Ugly ing place. Same for Monte Vista... just complete dog poop.
And yeah, SA is totally the only city in the US with billboards and strip malls.
Good going.
Not to mention the Boston sports mafia, which for some reason is extremely influential in that they get the national people to parrot what they say.
How many times have you hear that Tim Duncan should have gone to the Celtics? WTF?
Walk into an A/C'd building.
Just imagine havinj Vegas or Phoenix weather, 112... 117? no.
I lived in Phoenix for 17 years. I wasn't ing about San Antonio weather. I was saying that I'd rather be cold than hot .. when you have to go outside in the heat, it sucks.Just imagine havinj Vegas or Phoenix weather, 112... 117? no.
True, but the same sentiment can be said for the cold. I'd rather be in one shirt, one pair of pants or shorts, some flip flops than 80 pairs of undies, 18 different shirts, a huge jacket just to get my newspaper.
Also, just look at the past week and a half when the temp. for all those northern cities went above 95, they were ill prepared for that. I don't want to be somewhere were it's 95 degrees and no A/C.
I wouldn't. When I'm old, I would like to live in Boston in the winter and Costa Rica in the summer.True, but the same sentiment can be said for the cold.

To each their own.

Shouldn't that be the other way around?
My vote will be Red River, New Mexico or Nome, Alaska in the summer and a ranch 30 miles outside of San Antonio in the winter.
Come back to SpursTalk in 2040 to see who wins this battle.

No. Our summer months are winter/rainy season in Costa Rica. So I'd have winter all year round.Shouldn't that be the other way around?
For me, I'd have to say London.
London.
Good NBA city, geography man.
I was reffering London to Timvp and Kori.
Read up on our convo.
