  1. Oh yeah. You know I never bought a game through Steam so I don't really know how that works.
  2. I'll wait a little while longer because there are still people here. I don't like locking threads just in case someone wants to say something. Probably later on tonight though when things die down. I really don't like how things turned out.
  3. Hell of a game that was. On my XP laptop I still play HH 2002, 2003, 2004, Tony Larussa 2 and 3, Oldtime Baseball and Hardball 3 and 5. Plus Mvp. I don't get bored.
  4. Thank you. And if DonSpa was still around like he used to be he would tell all of you that I would go crazy every time he made a new uniform. I constantly thanked him for his work. And when you have modders like KC, Dennis James, scottybilly and yourself working on that game it can't be so bad to play at all. I just do not own the game. I'm sorry. And for what they are trying to hold people up for to buy it I have no plans on trying it out. It's too expensive. That's how I feel. I will e-mail wes about your banning ok rinzo
  5. HomerunforHolden has been banned for years. That was a duplicate account of Lundermann. Your math is wrong. If you were 19 when you made that account in 2005 you should be 29 today.
  6. I have the most posts on this website and of all my 21,000 plus posts I only have a handful of them in the 2k forum areas and I am talking about 2k9, 10, 11 and 12. Who did I target? This I want to know. Did I strong arm someone by sending them a threatening private message? Hey you, make your mods for Mvp now or get out! I got to know. You latched onto a comment by someone else and blew this entirely out of proportion.
  7. Ridiculous banning? Multiple accounts have been a problem since before you got here and has just gotten worse as the years go on. We can't allow people to make three or four accounts here because that's a rule here. You complained about this before and I didn't understand it then and I don't understand it now. But now that I look at your account can you tell me who SahFriendly and SahFriendly034 are?
  8. I want to publicly thank Ben Lindbergh for this article about our website. I think he did a great job capturing what this place is all about to us and his interest here is greatly appreciated. I am also very happy that I was not mentioned in the article that much because the website is not about me but rather about the modders and if you notice those were the guys (Jim, Dennis, Kyleb, Daflyboys, KCCityStar and Rising Sun) that were featured and rightfully should have been featured. That's the reason why we get visitors to the website each day because of modders like this. Nobody logs in just to find out how many people I verified today. So thank you Ben for giving those guys the recognition that they deserve.
  9. Great article! And we have you modders to thank for this!
  10. You're nothing but good luck, aren't you?
  11. Looking good as always. As for Kraw if anyone has heard from him that's fine. But if that's not the case I am wondering if something happened to keep him away. If that is the case I hope it is not serious at all.
  12. That is something that was not re-uploaded to this website but was included in the 1994 mod. You will have to download that entire mod to get the Schedule Updater. That's the only way you will get it.
  13. Well thank God for that. At least this evening the Red Sox fans won't be bragging.
  14. Encouraging news and Rising Sun has been unbelievable!
  15. Updated to 4-12 ...If Opening Day wasn't everything that you were anticipating it would be then baseball just isn't your game. It was exciting last Monday with all those games on and there wasn't even a rain-out and with a big thanks to DirectTV they had a free preview of games last week so there was enough baseball to go around for everyone. Some quick observations about seeing baseball again for the first time in months: The two highest-priced pitchers during the off season (Jon Lester of the Cubs and Max Scherzer of Washington) both started opening day for their respective teams and both lost although Scherzer looked a lot better. For one game Jason Heyward didn't look like the slug he was all of last year. Matt Kemp traveled ninety miles down the freeway from Los Angeles but didn't forget his bat as he went 2 for 4 with 3 RBI in his first game with the new-look and much improved San Diego Padres. There were almost two no-hitters. Cory Kluber of the Indians lost his in the sixth inning as Houston beat Cleveland 2 - 0 at home. Signing Kluber to an extended contract could be one of the best moves the Tribe has made in years. And in Oakland Sonny Gray lost his in the eighth inning against Texas but managed to win the game. There were three blowout games on Opening Day with the visitors winning two of three. The Rockies shocked everyone including themselves by scoring ten runs and shutting out the Brewers in Milwaukee and the Red Sox hit five home runs in an 8 - 0 victory over Philadelphia. Watching part of the Red Sox game I could not help but notice that the Boston players couldn't help themselves as they had to rub it in and dance in the dugout to taunt the Phillies. Make the target on your back even bigger and then when you get drilled you wonder why. At least the Royals made their fans happy with a 10 - 1 win over the White Sox. It would take the Royals about eight games to score ten runs of of Madison Bumgarner so they should take these kind of games while they can. The next time Jeff Samardzija hits Lorenzo Cain make sure he hits him hard enough so he doesn't start yapping right away. *&#^ Kansas City. Masahiro Tanaka had two good innings for the Yankees but when Edwin Encarnacion hit that two-run home run in the third inning to make the score 5 - 0 Toronto you almost could hear the channels change at once from the DirectTV customers over to the Tigers - Twins game. The Yankees had three hits the entire game. Now if that doesn't remind you of last year nothing will. It figures Joe West would have had to been involved in the worst call of the day. He called out Minnesota's Torii Hunter on a check-swing to end the game and Hunter was justifiably furious. West probably had to use the restroom. Finally, the Giants were the Giants and Madison Bumgarner was his typical self. San Francisco won 5 - 4 over Arizona and Bumgarner pitched seven innings of six hit ball for the victory. This guy doesn't get the publicity of Clayton Kershaw. He just gets the championships. Baseball showed that it can get along without Derek Jeter. Very well I may add. April 6th was one hell of a day wasn't it? ...The Yankees have already lost a pitcher for the season to Tommy John surgery and it isn't Masahiro Tanaka. A prospect named Ty Hensley that many people with good reason probably never heard of mainly because he has already missed an entire year back in 2013 and has only pitched in sixteen pro games, none above the short-season Class A level. If this guy makes it up to the big leagues it will be a miracle. ...And if Tanaka goes down with this (and I am crossing my fingers that he doesn't) this is what is going to happen in Yankee land. They'll panic. Instead of watching what other successful teams do in similar situations when a key injury happens (and I'm talking about the Cardinals and Giants here) the Yankees will immediately react. They'll go after someone's ace and let that team have whomever they want. New York's getting the pieces back in place to have a better team in the next couple of years but they still would have no problem if they had to start rebuilding all over again. ...Bob Costas has a plan to shorten the regular season to 154 games and to increase the playoffs by a few games. On paper it looks like it could easily be implemented but I highly doubt it because of two things. It comes from an outsider and it makes too much sense. ...Beer here, Dept: I was looking at a statistic last week about the price of beer at every Major League ballpark and you'll never guess who came out on top of everyone else. At $7.75 the Red Sox charge you the most and give you the least but that's nothing new because their fans have been treated like that since the beginning of time. Next year they'll probably raise it to ten dollars for a twelve-ounce can and no one at dear old Fenway will say a word unless they run out. Here's the stat so you can see for yourself that I am not making it up. ...Last Monday a judge in New York City granted permission for a woman to serve her husband divorce papers through a Facebook message. It's because that every attempt she has made to contact or find her husband has been unsuccessful and the only place that she knows where he is is on Facebook. This must have been one hell of a marriage. The woman went as far as hiring a private detective and the only place they found him was online with his Facebook account. Talk about the ultimate un-friend. ...One week ago today on Easter Sunday a man shot himself at the buffet at M Resort Spa and Casino in Las Vegas. People take these things seriously. My wife and I went to one at a racetrack/casino place once and we started having a conversation and the people behind us made us stop So naturally the first thing I thought of was that the guy saw the line and didn't want to wait. Either that or the fat guy ahead of him took all the crab legs and they weren't bringing out any more. ...That'll show him, Dept: From Mexican food to jail all in one night. Some people really know how to keep things interesting. Or crazy. Take your pick. A woman was having chips and salsa one evening last week with her boyfriend and when she discovered that he ate all the salsa in their house she grabbed a pen and stabbed him in the groin. I hate it when that happens. Not satisfied with just that she walked over to his TV and threatened to knock it on the floor. Before she was able to go through with that the man grabbed the TV because as everyone knows it's much cheaper to go out and get a few more jars of salsa then getting a brand new TV set. While the guy was putting the set back where it belonged the woman went out to the kitchen and grabbed a knife and cut him in the stomach. This was all over eating all the salsa. Who knows what would have happened had he finished off the chips too. Figuring the guy got what was coming to him she packed up some of the leftover chips and put them in a baggie and left the house. Police caught up to her when they pulled her over on the highway and was charged with felonious assault and criminal damaging. And after all that she still didn't get her salsa. ...In an obvious public relations move that they will ever admit to the National Football League has hired its first full-time female official. On one hand there is no way she can do a worse job than the men that that NFL already have filling those positions. But with all the negative publicity the NFL received with the way they handled women-related issues involving its players this was the solution? She's not a big woman and she is far from petite but judging from the photo of her if I said she was at least one hundred and thirty pounds I would probably be exaggerating. Over the years watching NFL highlights I have seen referees and officials get flattened by players with the worst being when a receiver bowls over one of them when they are running out or being shoved out of bounds. I can not imagine this happening to this woman. You'd have to call a doctor or the next of kin and not necessarily in that order. ...A woman from the Bronx was arrested last Friday for attempting to get married for the tenth time since 1999. Talk about a glutton for punishment. It's not that her trips down the aisle have been unlucky for her. She's been doing this by design. In 2002 she got hitched six times in six different towns. It must have been hell trying to keep up with all her wedding anniversaries. Taking one look at her it was not a surprise to me that she was a plus-sized woman. Anyone would be if they were eating wedding cake non-stop all these years. She was arrested on felony fraud charges at the state supreme court in the Bronx and faces four years in jail if she is convicted. And if she does end up serving time she is going to need a room for herself on family visiting days if all ten husbands decide to show up at once! ...A two-year-old was accidentally served sangria at a Texas Roadhouse restaurant in North Carolina last week and because of this mix-up the little girl received her first hangover in her young life. The family was there for a birthday celebration and a cranberry juice was ordered for the child but somehow she was given the sangria instead of the juice. It's a good thing she didn't chug it down all at once because after a couple of sips she announced that it "tasted funny" and began to stagger around and kiss everything in sight. Now we know what kind of drunk she's going to be when she gets older. ...I could not believe this when I read it but apparently McDonald's has contracts to serve food in eighteen hospitals across the United States and doctors do not like it. Not only can hospital visitors pick up a Big Mac before they go and see a patient the patient can also order meals delivered right to his room. I don't blame them for being upset. I can picture some guy who has to have open heart surgery ordering up some McNuggets and a few cheeseburgers to calm his nerves. While we don't have a McDonald's at the hospital nearby where I live there's enough junk food you can buy there to keep anyone satisfied. I doubt if the doctors are going to be able to anything about this because McDonald's is paying the hospital top dollar to camp out there. If they can just ban patients from ordering off the dollar menu while they are there maybe they'd be satisfied. Good luck. ...I'm a big Kate Upton fan ever since she made a name for herself as a popular Sports Illustrated model and not for two obvious reasons. <wink wink> So I was a bit surprised when she said that she was very unhappy with the famous "Cat Daddy" video that was released on Youtube three years ago. According to her that video of her dancing around in that barely-there bikini was not meant for the public to see. If it wasn't she should have told the lucky SOB who was filming it to keep the video for himself and not make copies. She may not have been happy about this but personally I was thrilled. ...DirectTV has been forced to stop airing the Rob Lowe commercials that advertise the satellite company because of a complaint by Comcast cable because Comcast is saying that some of the things in those commercials are misleading. I don't have Comcast but I have heard horror stories about them. They're like the Walmart of cable. If this is the best Comcast can do to DirecTV then those guys have nothing to worry about. ...R.I.P. to former Giants, Athletics and 49ers broadcaster Lon Simmons. Simmons was a Hall of Fame broadcaster that I am sorry to say I did not get the pleasure much to listen to but when I was able to it was a real treat to pick up a game that he was doing at night during the summer. The Bay area has been blessed with great broadcasters like Simmons. Bill King and Russ Hodges come to mind along with Jon Miller. R.I.P.
