I got the X-Box 360 version. It's really a lot of fun, but it's really hard. It's really a novel arcade version of baseball. The game boils down to individual matchups more than anything else.
Being a kid growing up with Street Fighter 2, I'd have to say I'm ready for some Yo-Ga Fire here today. I say Brewers win 4 - 2 today. And did anyone else hear the MLB.TV warm-up guy calling him Ga-LARD-o? Am I dumb and it's Ga-lard-o or is it Guy-yard-o?
There's no such thing as loyalty to a company anymore. You could probably count the number of companies that care about their employees on one hand. It's just because companies have seen other companies like Wal-Mart treat labor as chattel and make record profits.
I doubt the Tigers would trade Verlander. Even for Fielder. Perhaps if we offered 1 billion, gagillion, fafillion, shabolubalu million illion yillion yen, they'd say yes.
Holy crap that was an awesome game to be at. There were more Brewers fans there than I thought there's be. And to hear the collective stomach punch of all the tigers fans when Hall made the catch was epic. I even tried to start the Bill Hall dumb clapping chant, but between me and the 2 other guys in my section I only got a couple dirty looks from some Tigers fans. I nearly puked when CoCo almost blew the save though.
I can' t be too mad. Verlander's stuff was insane. That pitch he threw to Graffy in the 9th that started belt high and broke into the dirt in about 2 inches was disgusting.
Here's an article that's supposedly just about the draft, but it's actually all about the Brewers mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20070605&content_id=2006654&vkey=draft2007&fext=.jsp
I know the White Sox badly need bullpen help, a shortstop and a power hitter. I bet they'd go crazy for Bill Hall for Dye. Granted it would be terrible for the Brewers, but I bet they'd do it if they have enough faith in TGJ.
Guitar Hero 2 is crazy fun. I just got a copy for my Xbox 360 for all the Xbox exculsive songs. Plus you can buy the Guitaro Hero 1 songs off the marketplace. I'm selling the PS2 copy of GH2 and guitar controller if anyone is interested.
I saw the grainy security camera footage of the accident and you can't see much, but the tow truck's lights are very clearly on. I feel the worst for the poor guy the tow truck driver was helping. There is no reason to drag him into it. I hope some lawyer represents him pro-bono.
