Which NBA city would you like to call home

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

Miami or Phoenix.

Are you really this ing stupid? "Your" shows possesion, as in "your stupidity". Yes, you're is a contraction for "you are", as in "you are not recognizing".

Get it bag?

Also, keep backpeddling! It's entertaining to the others who have commented on your inane post about San Antonio.

You really should stop now because you're making a total ass of yourself.

It's pretty ironic that someone who is such a stickler for things like your/you're would write something like ...

"I chose San Antonio because in my opinion, its the best city in America."

in the very post in which you foolishly attempt to correct my spelling and grammar. You do realize that you should have said "it's" and not "its", don't you? You have committed the very same type of error that you accused me of and which led you to call me "genius" and " ing stupid". Oh, the irony!!
But don't fret too much. We all get sloppy on internet forums. Although sloppy people shouldn't correct others, ESPECIALLY when their posts are not only grammatically incorrect but are also filled with mispelled words like "maintenence", "tounge" and "possesion".

And regarding the your/you're thing...sigh... I'll give it one more shot, but I'm not here to educate you. In the sentence - and I'm not going to go click back so I can rewrite it exactly, but it went something like ..

"your not recognizing my last statement as being tongue-in-cheek is pretty ignorant"

In that sentence the word "your" IS possessive. In fact, the words "your not recognizing" are grouped together to form the SUBJECT in the sentence. The VERB in that sentence is "IS". There is NO "are" in that sentence! I am not saying "You ARE NOT recognizing my last statement as being tongue-in-cheek is pretty ignorant". THAT would be bad grammar and nonsensical.
I am referring to your inability to recognize something, hence "YOUR NOT RECOGNIZING"...sigh...never mind... this is too advanced for you

But because I'm kind hearted - even to foul-mouthed trashtalkers like yourself- I'll give you some sentences with a similar structure that may help your struggling neurons grasp the idea...

"your not showing up last night had me worried"
"your not participating didn't go over very well"
"your not grasping simple concepts makes you look like an idiot"

Now, go buy yourself a nice little grammar book. I've done all I can for you.

Read the sentence again. You're wrong on this one.

Read the entire sentence, not just the beginning.

Grammar smack is lame. But grammar smack when you're obviously wrong is worse.

I live in Corpus now and I'm moving to the NBA city I want to be in a week from today. I will be a permanent San Antonian? San Antonite? Eitherway I'll be living in the best NBA city.

Bump.

San Antonian!

[sa_butta]

I saw Honolulu twice in this thread, NBA city?
I would have to say Miami, I am already a Dolphins fan
but I really like the city and the beaches.

[1Parker1]

Damn, no one wants to come live on Philly?


......But you'll get authentic cheese steaks..........with CHEESE WIZ!!

[1Parker1]

I'd pick LA/Sacramento, Miami, or...France, Argentina, or Virgin Islands

[samikeyp]

It's just not a fun vibrant city like Austin or so many other places. Sorry folks. I only speak the truth.

no...you speak your opinion. Some of us like living here and are able to find plenty of things to do that we enjoy.

[TheTruth]

Denver, CO

sigh..As I've told a few other posters, the "I only speak the truth" line is meant to be tongue-in-cheek. I thought that was really obvious, but some people didn't read it that way.

Nevertheless, most of you have been fairly tolerant and reasonable in your reaction to my saying I didn't think SA was a great place to live and I appreciate that as I could've gotten a hail storm.

The thing with San Antonio is that the city council has never been very good at managing the development and zoning process, so you get lots of construction that is thrown up haphazard and without regard to aesthetics. That and a bombardment of tacky highway signs just make it less attractive than it should be. That's all I'm saying. I am also a San Antonian and there are lots of things that I love about the city (the food, the people, the missions, the culture) but I just don't think it's a great place to live. And you're right..that's my opinion, not fact.

[samikeyp]

and I respect your opinion and are glad you shared it. If my post came across as nasty, I apologize.

I can't see myself living anywhere other than Portland actually. I've lived in other cities such as Boston and Vegas, but Portland will always be home. The natural beauty within 100 miles of Portland is stunning and incredibly diverse. The only negative is that it rains a lot in the winter.

I have to agree with Jelly... I LOVE my San Antone to death, because obviously, I was raised here, and like it's been said, SA is a big city with a small-town heart.

It also has lots of really nice places to go besides the riverwalk, which is really aesthetically pleasing, especially at night, and hey! we are among very few cities who have a Sea World!

BUT...

I'd really like to move out after college. Go to another city like NY or Boston, or somewhere in D.C.
It's not that I hate it here, but big cities have always interested me a lot. The whole "Big city life" is just too exciting for me to resist.

But I do hope to be traveling back to SA a lot, and hopefully finally end up retiring here.

I don't blame a lot of you people defending SA so much, because it's a city you fall in love with very quickly, and nowhere else will you find such kind people, but don't blame others who have a different opinion or perception of where they'd prefer living. They're just opinions.

I've always thought Portland would be a fantastic place to live and have wanted to visit it for a long time. One of the reasons I started this thread is because I'm looking for a new, fun city to call home. hmmm....will definitely start thinking about Portland. But how far to the beach?

It's about an 80 minute drive to the beach.
