He probably doesn't even know how it started.

What the hell does that supposed to mean? I don't even know who that guy is.

First of all the questions are about all sports and secondly I do not pick or have any control of what the questions are in any way at all.

My score was 948. This was an easy one today and you guys will have no problem getting a perfect score.

Some years back DJEagles11 and Tebjr created a trivia website that we all went to each day. All you had to do was register on the site and play the trivia game each day. There's ten questions you have to answer and some days they are easy and some days they are difficult. I've played it off and on in the past months and now with spring training starting and the season beginning next month we should have more traffic in here and hopefully more players. People played this a lot when it first came out but when it went off the front page they kind of forgot about it. Well, here it is and if you want to give these questions a shot each day you are more than welcome. Post your scores here in this thread if you care to. MVP MODS TRIVIA WEBSITE. And

2007 Mod, Boston vs. Forum Fanatics. Game played at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.

He did.

Who would have thought?

No. You have to uninstall the game and start all over again.

Updated to 3-1 ...It's March 1st! This is the first day of the new year that I look forward to. Even though this day looks exactly like any day in January or February, this week spring training games begin and if that doesn't make everything all right nothing will. The games start up on Tuesday but the Phillies actually start up today against a college team and against the Yanks on Tuesday in Clearwater, Florida. Here we go! ...And we're off, Dept: Michael Saunders, the new Blue Jays left fielder that the team acquired from Seattle in the off-season won't be playing in Toronto anytime soon or anywhere else for that matter. He tripped in a sprinkler hole while shagging fly balls in the outfield last Wednesday and will be out until the All-Star break with a torn meniscus. And I bet everyone thought Mark Teixeira was going to be the first one to go down. ...Some Yankee fans are mad at the club for not signing nineteen-year-old Yoan Moncada, the latest Cuban superstar that the Red Sox ended up signing for a $31.5 million signing bonus. There's more too. They have to pay a dollar-for-dollar tax to Major League Baseball because they exceeded their international amateur bonus pool. But what's sixty million dollars to them? No one's going to criticize them for what they did. This is a huge risk for someone who is not ready to play in the major leagues this season or probably the next. The Yankees were in a can't-win situation. Sign him and face the complaints that they can buy anything they want. Don't sign him and they're being "cheap." The potential for this guy is limitless but not for sixty million. ...And Drew Smyly brought up a good point about this. He said it wasn't fair that a nineteen-year-old Cuban prospect gets thirty million dollars to sign and the best nineteen-year-old in this country would only get 1/6th of that because amateur players in the U.S. are subject to the first-year player draft process. That means that there is only so much money that major league teams can give to draftees. And who can argue with that? Part of the reason why Moncada got so much money is because where he came from. Major league teams think that anything that comes out of Cuba is a guaranteed winner. ...Phil Hughes has really come a long way. Provided that he doesn't get hurt in spring training he is going to be the Twins opening day starter when they begin the season in Detroit on April 6th. This never would have happened to him when he was on the Yankees because they would have brought up a pitcher from AA ball to take the mound before him. ...People who live in Alaska finally got an alternative to drinking the long, cold nights away when their state became the third state to legalize recreational marijuana. That's all they need up there. They already have more worthless drunks then they know what to do with. Now with this law passed they'll have just as many stoners too. ...This means the next time Sarah Palin says something that makes no sense at all she will finally have an excuse. ...For one day last week the temperature jumped up into the high twenties but after that for the rest of the week it came to its senses and remained in the single digits. But that one day when we got a break there were people walking around out there with no coats on and their windows down in their car. This is what life has been like living in a freezer. ...I don't get it. An American blogger by the name of Avijit Roy who was an outspoken critic of Islam was hacked to death in Bangladesh after a speaking engagement about his latest books by assailants with machetes. His wife was injured in the attack too but is expected to survive. This guy was told that they would kill him if he came back to Bangladesh since that is where he is originally from. After all the things that these people have done lately did he actually think for one second that they were bluffing? ...New commissioner of baseball Rob Manfred said last week that it is a possibility that baseball can go back to a 154-game season. I don't think that's a bad idea at all but the owners will probably fight him on it until the idea is quietly dropped. The players won't. If they were told they were going to get the same amount of money and have to play eight less games you won't hear any of them objecting. ...ESPN continues with their Michael Sam obsession as they reported last week that he got himself a new job outside of the NFL. My guess was that some florist shop hired him to make arrangements but I was mistaken. He got hired as a contestant on Dancing with the Stars. Shows how much I was wrong. ...I was as surprised as anyone in here last week that the movie Birdman was named Best Picture at the Oscars last week and maybe even a bit more surprised because I had never heard of the movie until it was brought up in the shoutbox by the others in here the next day. The only thing that I can see that is certain about the movie that wins this award each year is that no one understands how it happened or why. ...Khloe Kardashian and two of her sisters along with her little baby were involved in a car accident in Montana last week that they blamed on snow that kicked up from a passing truck that made her unable to see. She supposedly hit a patch of ice and crossed into oncoming traffic before landing in a ditch. That's the official story that they told the police when they got there anyway. The truth is this is exactly what happens when you try to take selfies when you are driving and these three are just dumb enough to post the pictures online for everyone to see. ...At the end of the 2012 season B.J. Upton bolted Tampa Bay and signed a five-year, seventy-five million dollar contract with the Braves and for the Rays it was money well saved. Upton hit .208 for Atlanta last year and believe it or not the year before he was even worse. So, what to do? He decided to inform everyone that he wanted to be referred to from now on as Melvin Upton, Jr instead of B.J. If it were me and my name was Melvin Upton, Jr I would do my best to keep that information to myself. Extra batting practice over the winter and watching films of himself hitting the ball when he was more productive at the plate would help Upton even more as he tries to be the player that he once was when he was in the American League. No matter what he wants to be known as now he's going to have to wait to see if this works for him because he is going to miss the rest of spring training because of inflammation in his left foot. By the time he is ready to resume baseball activities the season will have already started. And that's good news for the Braves because no matter what he says his name is now they can't help but looking at a seventy-five million dollar mistake. ...Does this mean if Miguel Cabrera has a bad year he'll change his name to Mike? ...C.C. Sabathia rumbled into spring training last week thirty pounds heavier than he was last year. His excuse was that his 2014 season was cut short because of his injury to his knee and he felt that it was because of all the weight he lost. Yeah ok. Sabathia's final appearance for the Yankees last year was in the middle of May. He tried to come back from his injury but was shut down in July. From the looks of him he knew where every Sonic and Dairy Queen drive-thru was within twenty miles of his house. For the past few years Sabathia has been terrible and that is with or without the added weight. I expect nothing more of the same this season. ...The Yankees are going to be retiring the numbers of Andy Pettitte (46) Bernie Williams (51) and Jorge Posada (20) this season and will all receive plaques in Memorial Park this year along with former coach and player Willie Randolph who will just be getting a plaque. As good as all these three players were I don't think any of them deserves to have their number retired. Pettitte was a hell of a pitcher for the Yankees but he left the team after the 2003 season to play for the Astros for three seasons and the Yankees sure could have used him during those years when their pitching was so thin that they were throwing rejects like Kevin Brown, Javier Vazquez and Jaret Wright out on the mound. Williams was a good player too and a good outfielder but look at some of the other outfielders in Memorial Park. Ruth, Mantle, Dimaggio, Maris and Jackson for example. How does Williams compare to that? And don't get me started on Posada. Of all the Yankees during their dynasty years of the late nineties this guy I hated the most. One of the selling points that got Posada's number retired was that he had five World Series rings. Well, yeah but look closer to what he did to earn his first one in 1996. He played in eight regular season games and did not make an appearance in the post season. For that he got a ring. Talk about picking the right door on The Price is Right. Pretty soon with all these numbers the Yankees are taking out of service I can't help but wondering that they'll be the first team to start using triple digits. ...The Cleveland Browns unveiled new logos last Tuesday and being in an area with a lot of Browns backers I was kind of curious to see what they would come up with. For all the hype they ended up giving the fans nothing. They made the orange color brighter because they said it matched the "passion of the fans and of the city." I wonder how many people are actually going to buy this load of crap? Sorry, forget I said that. Browns fans will buy everything that has the brighter orange on it. The next thing the Browns will do is dye the grass a darker color of green and call it a major stadium improvement. ...My wife went to visit her sister in Texas last week and like all the other times she has gone there I had to stay behind and watch the dogs. Someone had to do it and as usual I made sure not to have a smile on my face until I dropped her off at the airport and I was driving home. It would have been nice getting out of the weather for a little while but I would rather deal with the cold than be stuck watching two women shop all day and watch re-runs of Law and Order at night. When she came home last Wednesday night and told me about all the things that they did I will admit I only half-listened because there are so many times you can fake being excited when a women gets something on sale that they got for more than fifty percent off. Just when I thought I heard it all again she told me about a movie theater that the two of them went to that ended up sounding like some bed-and-breakfast. This theater had plush reclining seats and they supplied them with a pillow and a blanket so they can enjoy the movie as comfortable as they could. You could also order drinks (regular and alcoholic) and dinner that someone would bring to your seat. And if that wasn't enough to rope you in the popcorn was free. I'm satisfied when I go to the movies when the popcorn is fresh and the butter is still hot. If they gave me a pillow and a blanket I'd be down for the count before the previews were finished and I'd have to go back to see the movie from the beginning to see what I missed.

No problem. Although I wish I had an answer to your question. Then my job would have been complete. I don't own 2k12 but there's a lot of active users here that can help you with your question.

I edited your thread title for you. It now says simming through seasons instead of simming threw seasons.

Dennis when I first started playing I used to play against Kansas City a lot because those guys were terrible. Playing against them meant getting plenty of points for my profile once the game was done. Then someone found out the Katie Roy trick and that's when I stopped playing against the Royals. I think one of my earliest highlights was learning how to hit batters. Once I got the hang of that no Red Sox hitter was safe again on my watch. And it's still true to this day.

Ten years ago my first game was I don't know why I picked those guys, Maybe I figured I could easily beat them but I just barely did. In that thread I mentioned how bad the Hideki Matsui cyberface was so I went back in my clean copy of Mvp and took a look at him. That's all the original stuff right there folks. Out-of-the box uniforms, stadium, grass,etc. Every part of this game has been improved by the people right here on this website and also by the guys who were a part of EAmods/MLBmods too.

I don't know about you man. Every single time I turn around you come up with a good idea.
