Let's stop beating around the bush and just get an all inclusive thread. Yes traffic is worse, yes houses are more expensive, yes renting is more expensive, yes gas is more expensive, yes we are in a drought and will be drinking poop water soon, yes crime is getting worse, yes the Lakers have gotten much much worse

Is there anything that has gotten better? I guess getting that crook/gang member out of the mayor's office is a slight improvement. I have been here for 10 years and I can't think of anything that is better than when I got here

i have a better job and get paid better now. the kings are now an annual contender for the stanley cup. the clippers have replaced the lakers as annual contenders for the nba title and dropped their no good owner. same for the dodgers. air quality seems to be improving every year. progress is being made on an expanded rail system. it's all how you look at. i try to be a half glass full type of person.

I have a better job and making more money but my rent has gone up $500/mo for the same size apartment. So that's how I look at it. I'm also a Boston transplant so I don't care too much about LA sports really. My Pats just keep winning every year so that is good. I was pulling for the Dodgers this year but they are poorly run. They should have given up prospects for Price or Hamels at the trade deadline

Gas isn't more expensive. The kings are better. The Dodgers should be better. Kobe is finally exposed for the miserable ball Hogg he has always been. I'm failing to see your point.

Not really. But instead of Illegal Immigrants they're now called "undocumented immigrants" or "dreamers".

Yep. Kings are great. Clippers should be great but heart doesn't match their talent. Dodgers are run by morons. Should have traded prospects for Hamels or Price at the trade deadline and should have traded for a third basemen that can hit and another bullpen arm. Their window is closing quickly
