East coast or West Coast?

[SPSlax51]

Which would you rather (or do) live at?

OKAY then! Definately East coast! as they said below, 4 seasons rocks ( even though theres no lax in the fall ). Plus, snow is good for you, if we ever have it again here in hot hot hot Baltimore,,, :nut:

[raykessler]

east coast owns all... i enjoy having all 4 seasons... i have a cousin on the west coast who has never seen snow, that seems sad. And besides if you really need a beach on the east coast, then you can still find somewhere in florida not infested with old people

[Superman]

east coast pwns west. like ray said. you get to enjoy 4 seasons. i love having snow in the winter and hot days in the summer.

[ljlax]

uhhhhhhhhhhh

NOO

besides lacrosse...east coast has got NOTHING on the wes

[ekajsk8er]

east coast pwns west. like ray said. you get to enjoy 4 seasons. i love having snow in the winter and hot days in the summer.
The only thing i dislike about that is the fact that the hot days in the summer are accompanied by humidity out the yang. I can't stand it. Other than that, the east coast rules.

[gigo567]

West coast!!!! Also I have tahoe for snowboarding, the beach for summer time.

exactly.. all four seasons.. and there are fall and winter leagues

[laxrat22]

do you east coast boys know anything. do you actually think that its sunny and 80 all over the west coast all the time. we actually have weather and snow, ya it even gets down to below 70 on the coast, gee who woulda known. ok lets move on

the west has way better surf and beaches, way better skiing and boarding, way hotter women, and we don't have much humidity

the east has... better lacrosse and thats about it

[unta8]

SoCal is what its all about. legal buds (almost), surf, women, beaches, good music, good food, close to the mountains.

[aussielax]

Pffft Australia owns both your coasts put together we have good weather, Hot girls, good beer, beaches and hardely any crime, the only thing either coast has on us is lacrosse and even then i tip the aussie team to wip the floor with a team made up of the best players from the east coast.

[unta8]

Australia is not cool. Period.

[aussielax]

Australia is not cool. Period.

Are you going to give a reason for that statement or are you just gonna throw that out there and say Australia is no cool because unta said so?

[GarysGod]

west coast for sure...we have the hottest girls, best whether most the time, dont have to play lacrosse with frozen mesh..., and can walk around with no shirt, shades, and boardshorts and be considered an equal

[HRLAXER]

heck yes west coast. north west at that.

[slinkyspine]

West Coast for life. But, I still get four seasons and mountains. Hah! I win.

[unta8]

What I say goes. I was born in NZ, know oz quite well.

I'm jealous haha. East coast is great to me but it is all personal preference. Aussie- you have a new PM.

Wow...so true.

[SPSlax51]

Of course, he didn't know squat when he was born. jk

[SPSlax51]

Hmm. I didn't know there were fall lax leagues. I play indoor winter and spring and summer field lax, but there aren't any fall leagues around here.

[Live4It]

I live on the east coast, and like it, this is a close poll its 50/50 right now.

[LaxBoy92]

I'd rather live on the east coast. I've visisted the west coast (I live in the east coast) and I like the east coast better.

[LymanLax28]

The only thing i dislike about that is the fact that the hot days in the summer are accompanied by humidity out the yang. I can't stand it. Other than that, the east coast rules.
You have no idea what humidity is. The air in Florida is so thick that we can cut it into blocks.

I voted East. EAST COAST. RIGHT COAST.

[gigo567]

Thats because you were born there.

[lplax271]

east coast all the way!!
4 seasons..
and we can still surf and all that stuff
and play lax all year round
but we actually see snow


east coast kicks ***
face it

[Bobsch]

I live on the west coast...of Norway. Lots of rain and windy.

[Lkantola]

well actually australia has an extremely high crime rate especially in the cities.
But what do I know?

[laxrat22]

you know there will never be any solution to this argument, everyone is just going to say whereever they live. and we still have snow, in fact we can go boarding and surfing all in the same day

[ljlax]

Waittt!

Why do you WANT four seasons? and FREEZING weather? You can have a mild winter AND snowboard in California....but you don't have blizzards and sub zero weather...

so please...someone tell me why they want all those seasons...and I'm being serious/sincere

[ekajsk8er]

Blizzards are what make winter fun. 9 foot snowbanks rule.

[WHEELAX2]

hmm.. sounds like it's all preference...

and how many people have actually spent that much "real" time (not vacation time) on the opposite coast from which they live?

[WickedDpole21]

REPPNG THE M-F'IN EAST SIDE!!!!!!!!!

[UNCdefense]

way hotter women
Saaaaaaay what?Naw i'm not feeling that statement at all, someone best edit that mess...East coast all the way

[stegmakk]

I dont care which coast so long as it is warmer than here...
CA...FL...either way is good for me...

[smooth87]

The east coast gets snow days, while the west coast have earthquakes, mud slides, and wild fires. East coast by far.

[BTlaxripper]

East Coast.

You have all the history, so much variety in landscape:
-Florida which has all the tropical beaches and who can forget the Keys/.
-The Carolinas have awesome resorts
-New York City? Need I say more?
-Maine is an awesome vacation spot
-Vermont (not really on the coast, but is such an awesome state I had to throw it in)

On the West Coast, once you get out of SoCal, you have nothing. Oregon? Washington? Gross.

California has all the illegal immigrants, earth quakes, really hot weather, the phonies of hollywood. . .

East Coast fo sho.

[lVlike]

East Side, RepReSenT!!!!

[dlaxer]

i live on the east coast, but i would like to live on the west for a bit to see what its like, maybe then i could make a more educated decision....

[BTlaxripper]

Unless you live near a beach- it's crap. . .

[dlaxer]

true dat. i live in suburban MD. it's a nice area and all, but i'm tired of it.

[ljlax]

hmm.. sounds like it's all preference...

and how many people have actually spent that much "real" time (not vacation time) on the opposite coast from which they live?
I lived in Chicago for 10 years...not a coast...but there is weather which is what we are mainly talking about..

Which is silly since an hour from where I live had 2 snowdays this year and I live in San Diego...

So these generalizations are sillly...

What about kids that live in the mountains, or south, or midwest...I bet they feel left out...

[laxrat22]

The east coast gets snow days, while the west coast have earthquakes, mud slides, and wild fires. East coast by far.

the last time i felt and earthquake was almost 2 years ago and the only reported damage from it was a crack in 1 persons bathroom ceiling, i've only heard of a few occasions of bad mud slides usually in the OC, and i have experienced one wild fire my entire life. now how many hurricanes hit the east coast each year?

[jory]

do you east coast boys know anything. do you actually think that its sunny and 80 all over the west coast all the time. we actually have weather and snow, ya it even gets down to below 70 on the coast, gee who woulda known. ok lets move on

the east has... better lacrosse and thats about it

i like the girls on the east coast

[marflax33]

Well, that depends on what i want to live there for. If i am in the mood to watch lacrosse games the rest of my life, i would definently choose the east coast, but if i wanted to hunt and fish, i would go west. As of now, i would probably choose west coast, but that changes with the seasons.

[Canada_Lax]

doesnt matter to me. i visited both of them and they are both great

[pole15]

I love Philly (live in suburb of it) and NYC - and didn't think too much of the west coast 'till I visited it with my school orchestra last week. Seattle and Vancouver were so much fun, and a lot cleaner than Philly. It's a toss up.

I'm sure you have no immigrants in florida? Yeah.

East Coast - Snobs maybe?

I felt one over the summmer...
and one summer after freshman year...

the one last summer...I thought there was someone on the roof and the other one my friend thought her mom opened the windows and the wind blew and that's why her house was shaking...

devastating earthquakes are WAY less common that really bad hurricanes and tornados and stufffffffffff

My friends house got SCREWED by a mudslide last winter...100k ish in damages not covered by insurance.. but thats like 1 person on the whole coast

[Eclipse]

Unless you live near a beach- it's crap. . .

Most could say the same about Florida. Ive been going to Florida all my life, and been to SoCal a few times as well. Theres no difference, except in SoCal the girls are hotter, and there isnt nearly as many old people.

[aussielax]

What I say goes. I was born in NZ, know oz quite well.

Oh so you were born in kiwi land, Then it is only natrual tha you feel the need to pay out on Australia.

[enjoi]

uhhhhhhhhhhh

NOO

besides lacrosse...east coast has got NOTHING on the wes
Why can't we all just get alone :)

[ljlax]

Why can't we all just get alone :)
You mean along?

and didn't you read my other post...it basically said that this is a silly argument gosh

I lived in Chicago for 10 years...not a coast...but there is weather which is what we are mainly talking about..

Which is silly since an hour from where I live had 2 snowdays this year and I live in San Diego...

So these generalizations are sillly...

basicallllyy both coasts have everything...
and we should all be friends...and have a group hug now

[LaxCrazy17]

East Coast all the way! Nobody can beat the 4 seasons! And the snow..... Gotta love the snow and the 10 below temps. The East coast is the best for sledding, nothing artifical 'bout our sledding! Man The west coast is nothing but a big sauna. lol. Jk

[Dose]

The east coast has nothing on california. So far the only thing people are saying about the east coast is "4 seasons". have you guys been to california? we have 4 seasons here. It might not snow where I live, but I can get in my car and drive a couple hours and be at one of the dopest snowboarding spots in the country (lake tahoe). If i wanted to, I could surf, snowboard, wakeboard and skateboard all in the same day. can anyone on the east coast say that? California is the best state in the country, hands down. give us 10 years, and our lacrosse will be caught up with the east coast.

hmm
Yeah that about says it right there.
California pretty much owns..
even though I don't surf, skate, or wakeboard..... haha

apparently you have never rode dirtbikes or played lacrosse in the snow. or ridden a snowmobile not on the mountain.

actually yes. there is a lake where which is really calm waters, and virtually no people within sight in some spots about 2 minutes from my house, the beach is like an hour away, and the mountains are about an hour away. all which could be done in the fall or spring time. although the snowboarding would suck it could be done. and skating can be done anywhere. and please tell me how much a 4,000 sq. ft house with 6 acres would cost in cali? How many million?

[laxgod1790]

Yeah even though I'm from Jersey I still would want to live on the west coast. First off I don't like when it gets to cold. Second even though there is snow the snow sucks really bad. The best is vermont which cant compare to out west. Third the beaches and surf are obviously better than any place in the east. and finally how can you not like those smokin hot californian babes in bikinis?!?!?!?! :worship:

[Dose]

^ it all depends, the Bay Area and san diego areas are really expensive, but other than that Cali isnt that expensive. theres also more high tech, high paying jobs out here so that offsets the expensive housing prices

[laxfolife24]

I've spent a good deal of time on both coasts and though the west is nice and warm, I just like the east A LOT better.

[WoodDuck14]

For all the people who say the east coast is the only coast with 4 seasons, you all sound really stupid. We have summer (thats one season), fall (# 2 season), winter(comes in at 3) and spring(FOR A GRAND TOTAL OF 4).

[AZlax9]

I live on the west coast, and i dont really like it. I liked the midwest better, and would much rather live on the east coast. I should've moved to Boston when i had the chance!

[SDPirate]

west coast has it all. where else can u ride dirtbikes snowboard and surf all in one day?
no where.
we got hottest girls, movie stars, best food, if i was so inclined i could be partying in mexico in 15 minutes depending on border traffic.

and for all of you people saying you like having seasons too much.
so do i. thats why i live somewhere that skips the ****ty one.

and for that australia guy. yea the gold coast handles business when it comes to surf

[ColtsLax]

East coast has the capital of our nation. we also have all of the major battles of both the Revolution an civil war.

We have some good surfing in NJ(manasqan), but we have crazy flounder and blues
Florida is awesome to visit, not to live
All the good college(besides USC)

Real simple, east coast rules, because we are not going to fall into the ocean one day. Nuff said

[WoodDuck14]

Sauna? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA that makes me laugh at your ignoramusness about the weather. We were having 10 degree days in Jan and Dec in portland. 100 degree days in August and everything inbetween in spring and fall. Historical landmarks sound cool until you get there and its just a rock with a metal plaque on it talking about somthing that happened 100+ years ago. Plus, thats what the history channel is for. West coast has Big cities (LA, San Diago, San Fran, Sacremento, Seattle, Portland, Vancouver BC, ect...) And open wilderness ranging from coastal paradise to parched desert to teperate rainforest to rugged mountins to beutiful marshland.

Before you write me off as another biased native, consider that I was BORN on the east coast, lived there for my childhood, and visit it every summer since my backward minded relitives who havent figured where its at. West side! West has everything east has and more(exept lacrosse which is growing the most rapidly here BTW)

The choice is easy.

i'm guessing by your screen name you live in arizona, thats why you dont like the west coast, arizona is a terrible place in general 'nuff said

[WickedDpole21]

repping the east side baby

[EastCoastSurf]

Id have to say east coast, ive been to california... and i just dont like it out there. maybe its me but i just could not get used to the people. i like being in Seaside 10 mins away from my house fighting with some drunk guy from NYC who i feel doesn't belong on my beach. it doesn't get much better than that.

[SDPirate]

thats just localism and that is at every beach on the planet.
