Yeah, and if I was A-Rod, I’d be outa there so fast my $2Mil+ monthly salary would have to be forwarded.

Ah, winners of 7 out of their last 10 and obviously on their way to the pennant.

Okay, okay, okay. I even had a hard time writing that. It’s just nice to know that we’re only two games behind the Yankees…and their payroll is more than the gross national product of all of Kansas City.

OK Chris, I know it’s Memorial Day Weekend, and you probably had a night out with the wife, had a great time, and drank a little too much.

But seriously, the Pads are in 1st place and the Royals (duh, as usual) are in last place.

Folks, this is evidence – there’s no more die-harder sports fans than in baseball – and especially in KC, where there MUST be something in the water.

Who are the Royals losing to, ah, playing this weekend?

But it’s Sunny and 70 degrees year round. Of course, all you have for baseball is the Padres.

You could do that in SD – with a time machine.

Yup exactly my point. $1200 per month, with say 10% down gets you about a $200,000 home in my town. Would be 3/1 around 1200 sqft.

Thanks Sock.

In San Diego, I sold some duplexes in a blue collar area. They were 43 years old, in good condition. 2/1′s with a one car garage rented for $1,200 easy.

I’m still in awe of how expensive regular homes are in those places. I imagine the rents there would be enough to actually buy a home in most other places of the country.

Great post.
