Why does Josh prefer to play for Texas?

[yvangelfan]

They allowed the deer head to be installed above his locker?

[bloodbrother]

Because they suck and Josh sucks

[AngelsSurfer]

The fact that someone would voluntarily want to live or work in Texas over Southern California baffles me, unless they're in Austin, but different strokes for different folks.

Considering I've lived on four continents, not particularly. But SoCal is a hell of a lot nicer than Texas in all ways.

I'm partial to 29 Palms myself.

Part of it is that a four bedroom, 3,500 square foot house with a pool within 15 minutes of the city center is attainable by most professionals in the DFW area. The ~house in SoCal is probably $5M. The biggest trade-off is the weather. ...and I love LA, but slightly less than San Diego. But we're talking about a guy who makes $20M a year, so yeah, I agree.

He sucked ass in the second half of the season prior to the offseason that he signed with us. They were booing him in Texas he was so bad after having an MVP type first half of the season. 

 

His play in centerfield in Oakland that ended up clinching a playoff berth for the A's when Texas was in the drivers seat really pissed Rangers fans off.

He's a redneck?

Are you using the Chuck Richter scale?

[NJHalo]

[zenmaster]

No state taxes? Cheaper? Less crowded? Family? Feels familiar? 

 

It's a different culture in Texas than Southern California, and not everyone has the same needs/wants in a place to call home. 

[yk9001]

He's gone. 

 

These threads are starting to resemble a high school girl's lament when she got dumped just before prom.

Why are you being so obtuse? That's so disingenuous of you.

[sneaky_flute]

I'm not obtuse. I'm a square.
