    As someone who spent high school in San Diego and then when to an "East Coast" city for college, I can co-sign on the weather. I came back to California and if I ever leave, it'll need to be the same climate.

    But also, surprisingly, I also really missed the ocean. I'm not a surfer or anything, but I just missed seeing the ocean. I had a river with easy access, but the rolling waves, etc., were over an hour away for a person without a car of their own.

    LD was a Southern California boy; I wouldn't be shocked if that was part of it.

    No doubt. I grew up in the bay and it was pretty much 64-84 year round. Maybe 5 really cold days a year and really cold for the bay was like 40 lol.

    I moved up to the Sierra Nevada's 20 years ago, and it still produces about 300 days of blue skies a year but the winters are insanely rough in non-drought years, November to the end of March just SUCKS, other than the snowboarding, and sort of wintry beauty you get which after a while is just tiresome (especially when its windy). Maybe I'd like it more if we hadn't gotten like 1100 inches of snow the past two snow seasons combined lol.

    Now he's nominated for USMNT player of the year and as of today is the first American with double digit goals scored in the 2024 season...

    Everytime I watch Pepi, his movement just gets better and better. Not just but PSV but even with the US, he just understands spacing so well and gets into insanely good spots. It's why even when everbody is healthy I think he was ahead of Balo in my depth chart

    Hopefully when he transfers, it's not to the Premier League. Would be great to have an American striker in La Liga or Serie A. Been ages since Jozy was in La Liga (albeit not scoring).
