Give me all your San Diego Hate here!



start with the garbage weather. No snow, no comfortable fall days where you can sip cider outside without sweating..

Everyone in San Diego is clearly a drunkard because they have WAY too many world class breweries everywhere. Moderation, guys.



And San Diego is so nauseatingly sunny that it has the highest rates of melanoma of any city IN THE WORLD (probably). Enough with the beautiful, tan people everywhere. We get it, jeez.



The Chargers left. The Clippers left. The Padres had to built a beautiful new baseball-specific stadium to get people to turn up because they are allegedly so many other entertainment options. STUPID FAIR-WEATHER (pun very much intended) FANS.



Eat rocks, San Diego.

The Chargers lost to The Jets in Bobby Brady's football dream.



LOL! You suck, San Diego!

Their all-time home run leader? The immortal Nate Colbert, whom I've only heard of because I remember him from my 1970 season Sports Illustrated Baseball game and because Jim Bouton called him ugly in "Ball Four".

In The Lost World: Jurassic Park, InGen seemingly had their own import pier. San Diego was just going to let these arrogant God-players bring in a T-Rex from Costa Rica without going through customs.

I looked it up. Colbert's the all-time Padres HR leader with 163. Wow, is that a a lame record. Even lamer, way lamer, than the Mets all-time HR record, which Alonso is on pace to make mincemeat out of.



But Colbert was a star in his day. How could you not remember him?

Colbert, at least for a while and maybe still, owned the record for largest pct of his team's RBI in a season.

Around that same era Steve Carlton held the largest pct of team's wins.

Not sure if either still stands but I remember guessing both correctly back in the day.

Avocados are the greatest food on Earth and San Diego hordes as many of them as they can.



Not content to horde avocados, they horde avocado-arable soil and climate too. Now I have to pay top dollar for those scrumptious little handgrenades of goodness.

Steve Garvey was one of the first people (not only baseball players) I read about who was an avocado farmer.

And the SD unis had the same color brown as the dirt they grow in.

Fuck San Diego and the avocado farmers. They are depriving southern California of needed water reserves so they can grow their crops.

The no snow part is obviously accurate but SD has cool nights in July; no need to wait til October.

And, Hell, most of their summer days are cooler than NYC, at least as long as you don't get too far inland.

Steve Garvey, overrated on and off the field.



Anybody is welcome to re-use this when we get to the "Fuck Los Angeles" thread.
