    So the Jazz are no longer an NBA team? Or are we just saying they suck?

    I was simply trying to deflect the fact that I didn’t realize there was another game after the second Golden State Warriors game. And this smart ass Beavers fan came in and corrected me, but I refuse to give him credit.

    I live in Texas but from Oregon. It's seriously much harder to stay in shape here in the summers. So hot 24/7 even in the evenings. Sitting in a pool is fun but sure as hell ain't a workout. Compared to hiking trails and such that you can do year round in the NW.

    I think Amazon is providing the backend instead of TNT. I'd assume you can buy on YTTV or any platform. That would be nuts if a league didn't allow huge groups of customers to purchase.

    Hmmm? That’s a different take. Not saying you are wrong but a whole bunch feel Oregon is fatsville for like 8 months a year.

    Nah, "too expensive" here. They brag about how they get much bigger houses with much bigger yards for the same price or less... Then start in on it being too hot outside but they don't care since they just play video games all day... ... (???)

    We don't even get that bad of rain. It is more Grey skies than anything. Our rain is slow and steady. We never get downpours like they have in the Midwest and east coast. That shit is scary.

    Rains way harder here in Texas than the NW. Can be many inches in an hour.

    The NW is depressing from the lack of sun, when people say it rains too much they really mean lack of sun.

    You can hike and run and such in cold weather. I also ski a lot in the winter. Can't do any of that in Texas heat.

    For some people they stay inside the whole winter in the NW so I can see how you stay out of shape from that. I did find the lack of sun depressing.

    Really depends where in Texas. I live in Austin which is just as pricy as Portland. Some parts of Texas are very inexpensive though

    It's a huge state. I live in the middle, if I drive 9 hours west I'm still in Texas at El Paso. Thats just as long of a drive as from El Paso to Palm Springs near LA.

    The lack of income tax is a massive bonus in Texas. Could get that benefit in Vancouver or such though.
