How about when Sarver sells the team and we end up in Seattle?

That would be perfect. You know the move will be inevitable :)

LOL then they come back. Sacramento is almost as far inland as Phoenix is, way more expensive and lives in a cloud of China's pollution.

I'd seriously rather live in Turlock than Sacramento. Do they have bands in Sacramento? I've never heard of one.

Sacramento is one of those places that you're confused why it's the capital of it's state.

Sactown is pretty desolate too. But Deftones are from there compared to what Jimmy Eat World for us? :lol:

100%. I've lived in Phoenix all my life and I'm plotting my escape. I'm planning on moving to Seattle end of the year even though it's going to be hell on my budget. The rain will take some getting used to but every time I've been to Seattle was during the rainy winter and I still thoroughly enjoyed my time there. I go absolutely **** crazy here during the summer because it's so damn hot you can't even step outside for more than 10 minutes. Cabin fever in the summer is a real thing. And as a photographer, Phoenix is one of the worst places to live. Nothing but endless suburbs and beige on beige on beige. There's some beautiful stuff to photograph outside Phoenix but you're talking at least an hours drive to anything worth photographing. Seattle is significantly more photogenic and if you have any interest in street photography (I do), it's night and day difference.

I think there is a place for everyone and we all enjoy different scenery and surroundings.

As for draft picks, there is clearly only one correct choice...

Perpetual cloud cover and rocky beaches aren't for me, but to each his own.

The Towns stuff was great for sports talk - but for both teams - it makes sense.

Minnesota has a core group of Butler, Teague, Gibson, Wiggins - they don't need a rookie. In fact, with Crawford opting out - they probably need another veteran to help improve that teams roster.

The Suns - they have Ayton cost controlled for four years - plus the other picks it probably takes to get Ayton.

Nah, I work from home and can live anywhere I want. I've been miserable in Phoenix for a really long time. I moved away 2 years ago to live with a girl at the Grand Canyon and only reason I came back was because we broke it off and it was just the easiest place to transition to. This stop is temporary and if not Seattle then I'd be living somewhere else. A good friend lives in Sedona and I'm considering that but I already told my friend in Seattle I'd get a place with him so more than likely I'll try Seattle first.

Dude, these people miserable in Phoenix are the most hilarious kind of people. Just a pile of pedantic human waste.

I love Phoenix. Depends on how much money you have, what you do for a living, where you live, your age, and who your with!

Every city or town has something to offer, if you can’t figure it out, don’t blame the city, blame yourself.
