** What if? Lebron and the Jazz/ is it that off track??**

[cowhide]

Is Utah weirder than Idaho?

IF I had a choice, I'd probably move to Texas. Wife and I have discussed it. But don't worry...I won't desert the Jazz and become a Rocket, Mav or Spurs fan. And I DETEST the Cowboys.

I've lived in Texas, DON't GO!!! Just joking, if you think CA is a dictatorship than you might fit in TX. Talk about a dictatorship. Unless you live in Austin the state is run by big Oil and the GOP. Like I said before everyone can find their slice of heaven somewhere. I do like the chicken fried steak with white gravy in Texas. Girls are pretty but you are married so not an issue. Don't move to Houston, it might not be Hell but it is right next door.

LeBron on a young Utah team. I think we are stages ahead of any Cav team constructed back when Bron was there. You think he'd say no, but all it takes is adding LeBron and this is a guaranteed 55 win team. A young team that will run opponents out of Utah night in and night out. The ESA louder than 1997.. LeBron would have a sold out ESA ever night.

You can wake up now! Lebron doesn't want to be on a rebuilding team no matter how talented you think they are. Beside I don't Lebron wants to play in the West considering how tough it is to just make the playoffs and get to the Finals. In the East, right now he basically has to worry about Indy and maybe Chicago if Rose could stay healthy which is a BIG IF.

Lol and who da hell ah you? (Arnold Schwarzenegger voice) LeBron James brain? His agent? You're a keyboard warrior, that's who you are. You dont know anything about LeBron.

The comment about CA, I lived there twenty years and I don't know what you are talking about it being run as a dictatorship. The state has both republicans and democrats lead the state, I guess right now if you are a republican you don't like it but me personally, it is my favorite state even with it being over crowded and costly. You just can't beat the weather. It isn't everyone's cup of tea, but that is ok because there are 49 other states to choose from (all have good things to enjoy).

Back on topic, there is no way that Lebron would come to Utah, unless the Jazz could clone Stockton and Malone in their prime and even that might not be enough. As our team is right now I doubt Lebron wants to be on a rebuilding team. Now there is a rumor that Lebron might sign a two year deal which would be great if the Jazz team is more developed then the chances might increase. However, I don't see any realistic scenario which has Lebron landing in Utah.

Arnold was not really a Republican. He ran as one to get elected and we bought it. But he was a Kennedy, 100%. CA has been tax and spend for two decades.

Anyone who thinks Lebron might not laugh his *** off at the very mention of Utah, doesn't know squat about Lebron. But kudos to you for sticking to the topic, unlike these other morans.

Now, since the topic is completely laughable, let's get back to where we all lived and how weird those places are/were. For me, it's been Utah, Colorado, Mississippi, Missouri, Washington and North Dakota. Out of those I favor Washington first and SLC second. North Dakota is a giant poop hole. If I ever have to travel to Minnesota, I'll go out of my way to drive around N. Dakota. I'm never setting foot, or wheels, there ever again.

Weird is a perception. It matters little to me if Utah is considered weird by others.

You're absolutely right. And Utah has the perception of being a really ****ing weird place. Kind of the same wrap Scientology gets. That said, I've been to SLC numerous times and even while being the state's most populous state, it's a ****ing weird place.

Utah is only weird in terms of liquor laws.

Nah, bro. That's the least of it's weirdness.

It's not just Utah's booze laws. Look at the culture man! The culture!

Outside of park city, you have one of the strangest cultures on earth. It's the closest thing you'll ever get to a theocracy here in America.

Folks who get all defensive about Utah's weirdness need to take off the Mormon glasses.

And this is coming from an active returned missionary Mormon.

I know of a black administrator at a school. A mom came in to meet to discuss her son. Upon entering his office she reached out to touch his beard. She hadn't ever met a black person before. This is a 35 year old woman.

The culture. The culture is just so weird. Zero diversity and a ultra conservative political leaning has merged with religion.

It's weird man, just weird.

If you can't see this then there's nothing left to say. I'm sorry.

This is exactly it.

I grew up in Utah being an Italian/Catholic, I am very faithful to my Catholic religion. I live in Las Vegas. You call Utah weird? I just went to the gas station to buy a bottle of Vodka and there was a meth'd out hooker threatening to kill the gas station clerk because he wouldn't refund her for a box of cereal that she bought at a completely different store. I go to the sports book to watch a game and I see hookers everywhere accepting money for sex. Last week I was driving on 2-15 and was caught in the middle of a high speed chase with my 3 year old daughter in the back seat of my car. I am here because of my career and the money. I would chose Utah's very nice but closed minded Mormons over the Las Vegas drug addicts and crack whores any day of the week.

Crime and drug use is not weird, it's just a part of life. Most big cities have crime, poverty and drug use.

Frankly to most people outside of the state, Utah is really a non-issue. Most people know less than nothing about it. In fact Exum and his comment about the city of Utah sums up probably 90% of the country in terms of their thoughts about Utah at all. People getting all worked up over nothing.

Hi Loggy!

Lol. Thriller go spend sometime in the south, Dakotas and New England then get back to us.

Utah for sure has it's quirks and uniqueness. But so does everywhere else.

Uniqueness? That's a good way of putting it.

Things you are unfamiliar with and/or don't care for are weird, and different people have different preferences on where to live? Astonishing.

Pretty sure Plato talked about this ish

 

[UGLI baby]

I'm not Mormon and I live in Utah. It just really isn't that weird.

I'm moving to CA in a couple weeks, OMG GONNA be soooo weird!!

Yeah, but you're used to living in Utah, so it's likely not going to seem weird.

 

[UGLI baby]

To be clear, I like Utah wether or not it's weird. I just think the "OMG'zers soooo weird!!" speaks more about that individual person and their inability to adapt to new environments than anything else.

If I went to the deep South would it be "weird" that there are a lot of black ppl there, or just something that's new to me?

All I know is I'm moving to CA in 2 weeks and will FINALLY discover the secrets of the universe that vinvlone already knows. I hope to even meet a Mexican!!

Yeah, the black people in the south. That's what makes it weird. smfh

I don't actually think the South is weird. It's just another place on the globe with a different culture.

I honestly don't think anywhere is "weird". Just different people with different cultures.
