Tremendous growth. So did we all agree to meet at Stub hub to send Chivas off with a sellout?

EDIT: I don't have the time or ability to get something like this off the ground. But if someone wants to pick it up and try to get a group together for the trip out, feel free.

That would actually be pretty cool.

Words never uttered by people who have already been there.

I'm sorry your screenplay sucked.

My impression of LA after two trips: Smog and Cement for as far as the eye can see...which is about a mile.

[–]Major League Soccernot_a_spoof_account 6 ポイント7 ポイント

Concrete in a city surprised you? What, do they make buildings out of adobe in KC?

[–]Seattle Sounders NASLmkstnr 5 ポイント6 ポイント

Brick. Lots of brick.

[–]LA Galaxylucipherius 1 ポイント2 ポイント

every building in KC is made of wood which is why tornadoes fuck that place up year after year they don't learn

You must be doing it wrong, LA as a city has tons of upside as far as music/culture/art/beaches. The USMNT January games (the pilgrimage to camp cupcake if you will) are some of the most fun around.

[–]Chivas USA8bitninja 4 ポイント5 ポイント

Great city for soccer! In addition to all the mls games, in the past year i've seen the usmnt twice, mexico, real madrid, manchester united, everton, juventus. Most people who complain about l.a. are just doing it wrong.

[–]San Jose Earthquakesconstantlyoff 1 ポイント2 ポイント

Agree. There certainly are downsides to LA, but there are downsides to every city really.

[–]Seattle Soundersdsn0wman -3 ポイント-2 ポイント

If I was a punk kid going to the disco every night, I might be okay with it. The way I see L.A. is that it's hot, dirty, and over crowded. IT's probably the only place where you are just as likely to be in a traffic jam at 11 pm on Tuesday as you are at 9 am Wednesday. If there is anything fun to do you need reservations months/years in advance, or you need an extra 4 hours to wait in line on top of the extra hour or two you just took because of traffic.

I am sure having two soccer teams is great, but the daily grind of that city is un-real, and no amount of roller-coaster rides can make up for it.

[–]Chivas USA8bitninja 2 ポイント3 ポイント

Nope. If i want to go to a new restuarant hey there's always a great new place to go. And the food here is unreal. If i want to a nice beach there's multiple ones to choose from. There's always a new art exhibit or gallery to go to. Comedy shows? Check. Great music? Check. If i want a drink i can go to an upscale trendy place, a dive bar, a gastropub or anything in-between. I've never waited more than 30 mins anywhere (and waiting is rare) Any city can be terrible if you don't do it properly. And yeah it's very hot today highs of 82. Is traffic bad? Oh yeah! But if you're smart enough you can get around that. The thing about l.a. Is that you have variety and choice, if you don't like somethig here there's always something else that you can like.

[–]Seattle Soundersdsn0wman -2 ポイント-1 ポイント

Music, art, and food are far better in Seattle where I used to live. Beer and beaches are far better in San Diego where I live now.

Don't get me wrong, LA is nice compared to a lot of places in the Midwest, or East. It's just that it doesn't hold up very well compared to other West Coast cities like San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, Portland, or Vancouver.

[–]San Jose Earthquakesconstantlyoff 2 ポイント3 ポイント

Are you serious? The music scene in LA is probably the best in the country. I don't have enough experience with NYC to say that for sure, but I can't think of another better city. The variety and quality of shows LA draws is absurd. If I travel anywhere for music, it's LA. Art is a toss up at best, I'd favor LA personally. Foodwise, LA has impressed me significantly more than Seattle, in terms of both variety and quality. Beaches, sure SD is better than LA, the only beaches that are in SD's league are in Hawaii. LA's beaches are still better than any of the other cities you mentioned. Beer isn't my jam, so I'll pass on that one.

I disagree on your statement about how LA holds up against the rest of the West Coast, obviously it depends on where you are in LA, but being from SF, I'd prefer LA in terms of the city overall versus all of the other cities except SF/SD.

[–]Seattle Soundersdsn0wman -1 ポイント0 ポイント

To each their own I guess. The one good thing about LA is there is a massive quantity of just about anything (aside from fresh air, trees, and water) so if you can muddle through the traffic to get out to enough places, you'll probably find something you like.

[–]LA Galaxymarkrevival 3 ポイント4 ポイント

LA is actually full of trees, including several forests. WTF are you even talking about

[–]Seattle Soundersdsn0wman -2 ポイント-1 ポイント

These are not trees

These are trees

[–]Major League Soccernot_a_spoof_account 0 ポイント1 ポイント

How long did you live in LA?

[–]Seattle Soundersdsn0wman -2 ポイント-1 ポイント

Never. My job sends me up there more than I would like. Plus, living in San Diego often takes you into or through L.A.

[–]Bethlehem Steel FCjpoRS -3 ポイント-2 ポイント

Actually lived there (well, San Bernardino) for a few years.

That said, this is the first time I've wanted to go back.

[–]Chivas USA8bitninja 3 ポイント4 ポイント

San bernardino isn't l.a. , it might as well be a whole other state.

[–]Major League Soccernot_a_spoof_account 4 ポイント5 ポイント

San Bernarbama.

[–]Bethlehem Steel FCjpoRS 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Okay yes, but my point is that I've more than "been to" LA.

Yeah, you stared at it from a distance.

[–]Chivas USAyourenotwitty 2 ポイント3 ポイント

Jesus Christ, you know it's shit like this that makes everyone hate Californians, right?

[–]LA GalaxyAdamSerranosLazyEye -2 ポイント-1 ポイント

I'm not insulting your hood. It's simply not the same as living in LA proper. It's like someone claiming they know what it's like to live in Manhattan because they grew up in Long Island.

[–]Dallas SidekicksJohnMLTX[S] 1 ポイント2 ポイント

I would totally fly out there for that. Or make it a road trip with my girlfriend.

Make it Fb official ;) lol

[–]United Statesclarencebadson 0 ポイント1 ポイント

Make it official everywhere, some people don't have FB.

[–]San Jose EarthquakesSRQuake 1 ポイント2 ポイント

Thats very true, I think it would be hilarious if for there last home game, we somehow broke a Stub Hub Center attendance record

[–]Seattle Sounders NASLTasslehoff -1 ポイント0 ポイント

I'm soooooo down.

But I also only live 13 miles from Stubhub.
