"Warriors" may be my least favorite word. Followed closely by "Motorcourt".

...only to be rewarded with a likely matchup against KD and Russell Westbrook in round one. They may want to consider throwing some games to avoid the 1 seed. Maybe they should try to acquire Kobe; I hear when he is in the lineup your chances of losing increase by like 50%.
Hehe... another blast from the past... haiku and Mike.haiku said:...just a bunch of Mike2010Collection folks left.
haiku said:PStar - you haven't missed much here...just a bunch of Mike2010Collection folks left.
IHS - although misunderstood my most on this board, your advice back then helped a lot of folks including myself.

Whatever happened to the amusement park Mike was going to build in his backyard with all of his wife's money?
irvinehomeshopper said:BTW, this is about the most exciting thread in the last few years. The echo chamber is boring, comments are uninspiring, you guys are a bunch of followers driving away the thinkers and leaders.
irvinehomeowner said:Eh. PStar's family would have probably done just as well in Irvine/Tustin Ranch, just like Panda and SoCal, we all have to defend our decisions to leave Unicorn Land or else why bother?
But PStar would have missed a few things if he didn't move:
1. The 3CWG life
2. The view lot life
3. The pantsless backyard
4. Converting from Lakers to Clippers
5. Saving money
If we could have moved to either TRanch or SouthOC for a significant cost difference that covered the inconvenience facter, we probably would have done it.
But living very close to where you work and your kids go to school has an even more significant value to us.
As for Irvine bashing... haters gonna hate. IHS just posts for the reaction, he loves Irvine (and FCBs), he just doesn't like to admit it.

For the record, I never did and never will hate Irvine. We still have may good friends from there, and see them often. Even seeing some this weekend. I have nothing against anyone who lives there.
I think when IHS talks about "followers" he means people that are single-minded that Irvine is ONLY possible way to go from an education standpoint, and will make extraordinary sacrifices in standard of living for that ONE way, without considering any alternatives. And if one can comfortably afford the Irvine premium and still achieve the standard of living you aspire to, that's great --- more power to you. But if one is sacrificing something else important to live in Irvine simply because they believe the public schools are somehow magical, that is simply not the case. IHS is just saying there are many, many viable alternatives --- alternatives where you might be able to achieve all goals, school and otherwise. But don't mistake me, I hold no ill feelings toward the city or any of its residents. Just that something else worked for us.
