    I have family in the Phoenix area so have spent a significant amount of time there. I'll give you this much, you have great free-ways. They're so spacious and smooth. Just spectacular.

    Your various cacti are pretty cool too. Though at times you do have an abundance of dust and trash flying around. The monsoons and haboob's suck.

    I'll assume you just have heat-stroke if you think Blazers fan would hate Aldridge for coming back...

    For some reason your post made me think that maybe he will go to San Antonio because Popovich will not defer to him, but will be straight up with him and tell him what they need him to do; whether it be go into the post more or be more active on help defense; and he'll probably tell him I'll keep your minutes down enough so you have energy to do those things. And Aldridge knows deep down that's the kind of coach he needs.

    Ah, Phoenix.

    The model city, along with Houston, of how not to design/plan a city.

    Sprawl hell outlined with mini malls. For having over 5mil metro, the skyline is sad, too. The Lloyd District is more dense than Phoenix's downtown. Fact.

    What do you like expect man. We were doing this before it was in style. Now we are over it because, well you know, it's too cool now.

    We just like play our rare vinyl and enjoy free range organic chicken, while watching the Phoenix Suns play like shit since Barkely left.

    Keep up the strong work.

    I live Portland. I am a Blazers fan but if you read through the posts, there are "Portland fans" who said that. I was calling them out. Kettle calling the pot black??? :-)

    That's why everyone and their fucking mother is moving here. We live in an area that's habitable to human life. Phoenix is in an area where they have to pump water in to make human life sustainable. When the water runs out, and it will, that city will dry up and fucking die.

    There's no such thing as a typical Portlander. We have all these fucking transplants (like you) who come, stay for a little while, and then leave.

    Welcome to RipCityTwo, it's great to have you here, even if you are a Suns fan, lol.

    Just so know you we have a strong no personal insult rule here. No calling people a bunch of whiny girls. Feel free to attack what people post but please don't attack them personally.

    Also, this is a Blazer forum, actually it's the official fan forum of the Blazers. We're going to bitch about other teams. It's pretty much expected. Doesn't have to be rational or accurate.

    Anyway, have fun, we enjoy fans from other teams.
