  1. Fail. Bad game. The pitching with total control is ok, but you have no idea how good your pitches are or how to improve. You don't know what you are doing wrong or how to do better. The classic pitching controls are totally useless. They don't even show how to use them. Game looks nice though. I was playing the game against sombody and he had his 1B come off the base on a 6-3 put out. Wasn't a bad throw either. I am still upset that EA didn't acquire 2k games.
  2. This is being discussed over at the political forum where words can be used that accurately describe feelings towards this officer's behavior. I don't think there is significant proof of anything beyond a possible abuse of power issue here. I guess I agree with this, but the extent of the abuse demands dismissal in my opinion.
  3. Also, he could get in touch with old man Prince and buy his customer list I thought they turned that list over to corporate. He called Prince Paper early in the episode looking for a job, but they had gone out of business. Presumably driven out of business by Dunder Mifflin.
  4. I guess an upgrade since the number is bigger. Bigger is better. Always.
  5. The night time is the right time, the night time is the right time, the night time is the right time
  6. it's not necessarily fair to say that he is going to command more than Sabathia. Yes, it is. We only got CC for half a season. Whoever trades for Peavy is going to get him through the end of the 2013 season.
  7. Maybe if you wake up at 2AM you will be ready for the day by the time 8am comes around. I think being excited about the day is very important. I know when I have to get up early to go to a Brewers game I wake up much quicker than when I have to get up for work even though I have to wake up for Brewers games 3 hours before I would normally get up.(holy run on)
  8. Buy the tickets. I called to get group tickets for the June 13th game about 2 weeks before single game tickets went on sale. We wanted to get patio seats, but they only had 6 left and they were split up all over the park. The best seats we could get started in the 2nd row in the section between the visitors dugout and the visitors bullpen. Many sections were completely full already. The T-Rats were popular before they were a Brewers affiliate. I think they are going to be even more popular now.
  9. Dang it Hawing, you beat me to it. Not that the rankings mean much... Still nice to be ahead of the Cubs.
  10. I would have a huge problem with this if I was going to the game like the Rev. Overall, not really a big deal though unless Macha comes out and starts talking about Suppan being our best starter. Even skipping Gallardo or Parra once in a while to keep their innings down wouldn't upset me. Skipping Bush instead of Suppan would. I have not formed an opinion of Looper yet, but I will guess he is better than Suppan. If we make the playoffs and Suppan is the first starter for any reason other than we had to have our best guys start so we could get into the postseason, I would have a huge problem with that.
  11. Probably comments like this referring to DiFelice Link
  12. True on both counts. I would put odds at 50/50 that TH even knows TGJ is out of options. It took him 3-4 weeks to figure out Lawrie was switching to 2B permanently and he even had to be told about the switch. I know this is probably piling on, but with TH's previous and continued lack of civility towards readers I feel no remorse. This is a surprisingly mostly civil response from TH. He didn't even call you a name or question your intelligence.
  13. We won't know for sure who they are losing for a month or so. Depends who leaves to go join a team they were drafted by.
  14. I was a little insulted with his responses... he was talking down to me. TH is known around here for that.
  15. I got a Fossil watch over Christmas and they no longer come with instruction booklets. You have to go online to get the instructions, which I think is a good idea. It got me to thinking, how long until video games no longer have books? It isn't like they really need to have books anyway. Most games hold your hand for a level or have in game tutorials for new moves. Almost all games also let you adjust how your controls are setup somewhere under options as well. On the same note, why do games and movies come in such ridiculously large cases as well.(At least Wii and 360 games do) Do we really need anything bigger than a CD slim line case? In my opinion the answer is no. There is quite a bit of waste in packaging. Reminds me of all the packaging that CDs used to come with when they first came out. Of course this might all just go away as soon as digital distribution becomes the norm. I really don't like digital distribution with the current console systems. Games take up a lot of space on the hard drive. I think around 6GB if you load a game to the hard drive on the 360. Until they get around the 200 GB+ as a normal hard drive for consoles, it will take up to much space to keep your whole library on it. Not to mention the time it will take to download a game. Actually doesn't seem to far off now that I think about it.
  16. Nice job by the women's team. Looks like the men's team has been left out of the tournament. Time to switch over full time to the Brewers.
  17. When Hall stands at the plate and admires balls that land on the warning track turning doubles into singles or triples into doubles I consider it a lack of effort. I wouldn't call that lack of effort. I would call it a dumb move and maybe a reason to leave a player out for a few games. Maybe. I wouldn't pull a guy for something like that unless he does it with regularity. A couple times a year isn't enough to get to upset about.
  18. Under 3 minutes to go. Baring a UW men's hockey like collapse they should be ok.
  19. Apparently he ordered a statistical analysis and Bush came out as the best pairing. He goes on to say that the pairing probably came down to either Bush or Looper so I doubt the analysis had much to do with the choice. Link How long until we get a Macha catch all thread?
  20. Considering we've been conditioned to Yost's style of treating players like they are made of glass, a new manager who holds players accountable is going to seem over the top. Yost had the excuse that the team was young and their confidence couldn't recover from a sit down or a lecture. We have no idea if Yost held players accountable or not. He didn't pull them out of the lineup for poor performance and that is the way to go. The only thing players should be pulled out of the lineup for is lack of effort. Player performance over a few at bats is not predictive.
  21. I see Jessie Vetter won the Patty Kazmaier award this year. The women's team plays on Sunday at 11:00 am in the NCAA title game.
  22. Billy Beane has always believed that the manager has had little or no impact on the success of a team. I don't know about Billy Beane, but I don't think changing managers makes much of an impact. You just change from one set of mistakes to another. Yost was pretty good at putting out a decent lineup(excepting the Counsell as half of a platoon stuff). He didn't make many glaring errors like Kendall batting leadoff and even gave the pitcher in the 8 hole a try. Even if Kendall only bats leadoff for 40 games, that's 28 plate appearances that should have gone to other players over the course of a full season.(assuming 16 PA per spot in the order). I hope Macha was just thinking out loud and not seriously considering Kendall for leadoff.
  23. If we would trade Cameron for the dregs the Yankees are offering, we won't need the money at the trade deadline to add a player. We will already realistically be out of the playoff hunt.
  24. Makes sense I guess. I don't know our farm system well enough to know if we already have a guy like that. Even if we do, anything for Gwynn would be nice. I assume he doesn't make the MLB roster this year.
  25. Current playoff droughts only. I will reword it. Yes the answer is all the teams that didn't make the playoffs last year.
