I think I can beat that. Here's a quiz for all of you. What do the Red Sox like to do when they are going through a losing streak? If you answered "pick a fight with the other team for no reason" you are right! So grab another hot dog off the grill because you deserve it. Here's what happened: Yesterday the Tampa Bay Rays scored five runs in the bottom of the seventh inning to break a 3 - 3 tie and in that same inning Yunel Escobar took third base on defensive indifference while Tampa held that five-run lead. The Red Sox bench didn't like that so instead of getting upset with themselves that they let Tampa put a five-spot on them after they fought back to tie the game they picked a fight with Escobar, since it was his fault that Boston was in that 8 - 3 hole. It was a five-run lead where anything could happen. Take Saturday's game for example. Boston scored five runs in the first and then watched the Rays tie the game and win it in fifteen innings. And this happened literally less than twenty-four hours before this fight. The Red Sox started this fight because they must have figured that at least they'd have half a chance to win it with Ortiz on their side. Boston Strong?? I guess so.

It sure sounds like it. If something is corrupted on the actual install CD there's little to do about that. Good thing for you though is someone is selling their copy of Mvp right now on this site right here. That might be something to look at. No warez, cracks, or links to such content. Help, requests or posts that discuss circumvention of copyright measures are forbidden. This includes linking to illegally obtained software, movies & music files - posting about it, and suggesting obtaining it. All that means is that you get no help and you are on your own. That's just how it is. We can't give support to people that have the downloaded (pirated) version of the game. You have to buy it to get help around here and yes we all know that it is kind of expensive to buy.

That's all that matters, right?

Updated to 5-25 ...You got to love the Dutch. They are making immigrants in their country learn the language and pass a culture test during the first two years they are in the Netherlands and if they don't they got to leave. What an idea. Can you imagine if they did that in our country? Arizona would lose 80% of their population. ...While I'm at high fives to the Chinese too. This doesn't happen a lot so they better not get used to it. China loves the XP operating system so much that they have now banned Windows 8 from being installed onto any computer in that country. 50% of China's desktop market uses Windows XP and the reason behind the ban is that they wanted to ensure computer security there ever since Microsoft stopped supporting XP. You got to love anyone that can tell Microsoft in so many words to go to hell without actually saying it. ...I read an article that said that in one year's time kids eat more then ten pounds of sugar from breakfast cereal alone. That got me kind of curious because even though I am not a kid like most people I have cereal from time to time and it was here that I found out that one of my favorite cereals, Kellogg's Honey Smacks has 56% sugar by weight. No wonder why this tasted so good. Years ago this same cereal was called Sugar Smacks and all Kelloggs really did was remove the word "sugar" from the outside of the box while changing nothing inside of it. Sugar without Sugar Smacks? Unheard of. I haven't had this cereal for about a year and a half but it's not because I didn't want it. It's just that it's never been on sale. Now it's always going to be in the back of my mind every time I see it and I am never going to be able to buy it again. ...At least Cheerios and Rice Krispies got good reviews. I love those two cereals but at the same time I'd be hard pressed to pass up Count Chocula. ...The Customer is always right, Dept: A woman who was having breakfast in a Burger King restaurant down in South Carolina threatened to "shoot down the place" because she felt her cinnamon roll was not fresh enough. People like this woman really know how to keep their priorities straight. The other two women that were with her didn't say much because they were too busy polishing off their sausage, egg and cheese muffins to look up and take notice but as soon as their friend stuck her hand in her purse and acted like she had a gun they told her to hold on with that kind of talk because they weren't done eating yet. After employees threatened to call the police did they all finally leave and they made sure to take the cinnamon roll that caused all the commotion in the first place. Stick it in the microwave for ten seconds. Works wonders. ...Come to think of it something like this happened to me once except that there was no drama involved. It was a few years back and I was at a McDonalds and I bought a coke, fries and a double cheeseburger. When I placed my order I asked them not to put pickles on the burger and they said it wouldn't be a problem. When I sat down the first thing I did was open up the burger to see if they took the pickles out and sure enough they were right there like they were waiting for me. All I did was take them out and set them to the side. With an attitude like that I'll never be newsworthy. ...There seems to be a problem these days with schools as they seem to look the other way when bullies are involved even when the parents go to the teacher or administrators to report the problem. And the zero tolerance policy they have towards them looks great on paper but carrying it out and doing something about it is another thing. But as soon as a parent stands up for their kid and deals with them first-hand then just watch how quick they act. There was this mother in Santa Rosa, California who is now facing charges because she grabbed a twelve-year-old boy by the throat when she confronted him about bullying her daughter. The school took photos of the red marks on the boy's neck before calling the police, who in turn arrested the woman on a charge of felony child abuse. Arguments can be made pro and con about this but the way I see it is this is a mother protecting her child because the school won't. I don't have kids myself but I know I'd do the exact same thing except maybe squeeze harder. ...I'm no fan of tattoos. I'd never get one and I don't feel that I am missing out on anything because I don't have one but now if you ever need to be fitted for a crown you can have your tooth tattooed to anything that you desire. No thanks. I can hardly sit through a teeth cleaning without squirming off the chair. ...If the Yankees have any chance this year in winning the American League East Division they should try their best to stay out of Chicago because they seem to be snakebit every time they play there. ...Lately I have been forcing myself to go out for walks in the evening so I can build up more strength in my knees. I do it at night because it's finally starting to get warm around here but it still cold enough at night for people to stay outside on their porches or decks to pass the time away. It was during one of these walks that I started thinking about the times I spent with my friends on these cool nights that kept everyone inside and the things that we used to do then would never be tolerated today. We used to play a game where we had let's say six people. We'd split them up and one team would stay in one place for five minutes while the other guys would run off to God knows where with the goal of getting back to the agreed upon area. Sometimes I wonder to myself why I even think of something like this that happened those many years ago. Anyway, we would hide on top of garages. There was a set of houses where you could easily jump from one garage to the other until you covered all five of them. Picture some kids doing that now. We would hide inside of garages too. We knew the people who never locked their garage and we would open the doors and hide from the people who were looking for us. There was this old guy who always kept his unlocked and he had an impressive collection of tools that we never touched. Hiding out there was one thing, stealing was another. Give that a shot today and see how fast someone will press charges. I remember one kid who hid in a dog house in someone's backyard. It took us an hour to find him because while he was hiding he fell asleep in it. Maybe this was the beginning of my knee problems because if you got back to the safe area without being touched you were ok but if you were spotted you would be tackled to the ground before you got there and that happened to me a lot. And here I am, years later doing my best to walk in the same cool night with no one around remembering a time not so long ago when it was the easiest thing to do. ...Last week police from sixteen countries raided 359 homes and arrested eighty people suspected of peddling virus software believed to have infected hundreds of thousands of computers. The software was called "Blackshades" and it is a dangerous piece of malware that can let you control other people’s computers by recording keystrokes, having access to private information like credit card numbers and even being able to see you without your knowledge via your computer's webcam. Blackshades was very popular as it generated more than $350,000 in sales and along with the storage drives that were seized the FBI also confiscated quantities of cash, illegal firearms and drugs. This wasn't reported where I live but that doesn't mean that someone doesn't have it or is affected by it. The FBI even managed to arrest the owner and operator of this organization and I'm sure that as soon as he was picked up people started to get nervous because it probably won't take him long to start singing a few bars. ...There's a lot of unrest going on in Iran right now and this time it has nothing to do with blowing something up or chopping off someone's head. Those fun activities have been put on hold right now after the scandalous way an Iranian actress named Leila Hatami conducted herself at the Cannes Film Festival when she went up and greeted the head of the festival by giving him a kiss on the cheek. As soon as the Islamic republic's deputy culture minister was revived with smelling salts after witnessing this on television he went off on Hatami and accused her of maligning Iranians with her actions. It's a good thing she didn't shake his hand and wink at him too. The deputy culture minister continued to denounce her as he went on to say that "Iranian woman are the symbol of chastity and innocence" Yeah, sure they are. Buy them a few drinks and they're like anybody else. ...Lawyers representing the family of guitarist Randy California, who has been dead for seventeen years now, are suing to try and prevent the release of the Led Zeppelin IV reissue when the time comes because they want to make sure that the guitarist's name is given a writing credit on 'Stairway to Heaven.' This song is now forty-three years old and the family claims since California's death in 1997 it has taken this long to save up enough money for an attorney to take their case. Wouldn't you think that if the claims by this family were strong enough some lawyer would have taken the case because of a potential multi-million dollar settlement? Something doesn't add up right here but the only thing that does is someone trying to lay claim to this band's signature song before the album is remastered and re-released to the public. ...In an effort to keep her family from learning she had dropped out of school a twenty-two year old woman phoned in two bomb threats because she believed by doing so the graduation ceremonies at her school would be canceled and her relatives would not notice that her name was not on the list of graduates. That is what usually happens to someone when you haven't been at school all year. The girl's mother gave her thousands of dollars this year to use for school and was unaware that she was using the money to buy tokens on Google Play. The two bomb threat calls were traced back to the girl's cell phone number. Police will always admit that their job is made so much easier when crimes are committed by people like this who have their brain turned off when they are doing them. ...Stephen Drew is back with the Boston Red Sox after signing a one-year ten million dollar contract. This signing made the Fenway Faithful happy while the rest of baseball couldn't care less. Drew signed for four million dollars less than what Boston offered last year. I don't know what other skills he has besides playing baseball but after he retires he should never think about becoming an investment counselor.

Thank you very much!!

You're right, I'm sorry. I meant to say avoid a sweep against the Cubs.

I would have to say it is. I downloaded version 1 and 2 of this mod and they both installed flawlessly. Give it another shot.

Home plate umpire Tim Timmons motions for Asdrubal Cabrera, who was on third, to take his base after Detroit Tigers relief pitcher Al Alburquerque balked with the bases loaded in the 13th inning of a baseball game, Wednesday, May 21, 2014, in Cleveland. Ryan Raburn, right, turns toward the dugout to celebrate. The Indians defeated the Tigers 11-10.

It takes the Yankees 13 innings to earn a sweep against the Cubs.

Another five star job! Thank you.

Homer's new portrait upload should be just fine.

*** works best with MVP08 and MVP 12 Total Conversion ***

Oh yeah!! Thank you very much

Very much appreciated Dennis. Thank you for this fix. Since I never used the Marlins I had no idea anything was wrong.

Jaxen, here is the Ryne Sandberg cyberface that daflyboys was talking about.

Thanks a lot. These look great as always.

Updated to 5-18 ...It doesn't seem to matter if Mozilla releases a new version of their Firefox browser because one thing you can count on before you start it up for the first time is that Adobe Flash is going to crash at some point. ...I don't know if the Yankees are the unluckiest or the most unconditioned team I've ever seen in a long time but I am getting fed up with finding out someone on the pitching staff won't be pitching for awhile due to some sort of injury. C.C. Sabathia's gone now for fifteen days, which should actually help come to think about it. Who the hell really knows what's going on with Michael Pineda and Ivan Nova's going to be watching HBO for the rest of the year. We are in the middle of May and three of the five Yankee starters have fallen off the map. By the All-Star break so will the rest of the team. ...Don't tell my wife but I have been madly in love with Misael Morgan for awhile now. I think if we were the last two people on earth I might have a chance with her. But if that doesn't happen, forget it! ...A lot has been made in the media about the St. Louis Rams drafting Missouri defensive end Michael Sam and the reactions that people have had about it. Not everyone was happy about it and I get it. I'm not gay and I have no understanding of that lifestyle but that is how Sam is and that's really all anyone needs to know about this. There were some things I didn't like about this and it had nothing to do with whom Sam decides to spent time with when the doors are closed. As long as someone came out supporting Michael Sam everything was just fine but if anything was said that wasn't supportive of him that person was treated like a pariah. As a nation we tend to look down on countries like North Korea with their smothering human rights practices but as the months and years go on we are losing one of our biggest freedoms of all and that's the right to say what you think. People in that country already know what that's like but we are learning fast. Miami Dolphins cornerback Don Jones was fined and suspended by the team because of comments he made about Sam on Twitter. His suspension consists of not being able to participate in all team activities until he completes educational training for his Twitter comments. The Dolphins went on to say that they were "disappointed" in the comments that Jones made. The hell they were. They were disappointed and upset because they had to do some quick public relations work because one football player had the cajones to post something that a lot of other players felt the same way about. Right or wrong I agree with Jones. The last thing I want to see on TV is two men kissing. That's why I've never seen Brokeback Mountain. Two women are a different story. But that's Sam and that's what he's about and I'm fine with it. People should lead their own lives. But not everyone approves and the people who oppose it should be able to freely say it and not have to worry about going through sensitivity training or apologizing twenty times. That's what our freedom of speech is about, to be able to speak your mind. It sounds so simple but like most things around us we will only miss it when it's gone. ...And then, maybe there's still hope: ...I pay as much attention to Charles Barkley as I do to Red Sox fans who get upset, but last week if I had the chance to I would have shook Barkley's hand. When Barkley was asked about the women in San Antonio, Texas during a recent NBA telecast last week he could not contain himself and decided to have some fun. He described the women there as a "gold mine for Weight Watchers" and that San Antonio was a place where "Victoria is definitely a secret." All this was tongue-in-cheek and was meant as a joke and if you don't believe that then here is a webpage that you can go to so you can see for yourself. After Barkley said all this the usual happened. People got upset, they wrote letters, they called the network and told them to make Barkley apologize and in most cases they get their way, but not here. More often than not the offender parks themselves in front of the camera the first chance he gets while looking like a kid who who just caught playing hooky and apologizes and asks for forgiveness for their "insincere" remarks. Barkley? Hell no. He told them he was only joking around and if they were waiting for an apology hell would freeze over. Who knows, maybe hell did freeze over because someone did not retreat from what they said just because other people didn't like it. Way to go. At least someone can speak their mind. ...A husband and wife team that run a Christian outreach group in Daytona Beach, Florida were fined $746 by the police because every Wednesday they went to a local park and along with volunteers fed homeless people. The reason for this is that there is a city ordinance that bars individuals from serving food in public. Along with the fines the group was also banned from the park for life. This must be Daytona Beach's way of combating crime. Muggings, shootings and drug activity still go on but they sure as hell got the feeding homeless people situation under control. ...During a soccer match in Genoa, Italy between Napoli and host Sampdoria a woman interrupted play as she ran out on the playing field wearing only a big smile and a very small bikini. Like everyone else that does this sort of thing she ran around for awhile but it took her some time to be caught because the security people were fighting each other for the right to tackle her to the ground. ...Kim Kardashian and her no-talent fiancé Kanye West will be getting married in Florence, Italy later this month. All I want to know is what the Italians did to them that got them so mad that they decided to get even with them by getting married in their country? ...Vegas oddsmakers has Germany, Portugal and the Netherlands as the early favorites as the country where the divorce will take place. ...Red Lobster sold for 2.1 billion dollars! Must be nice to have that kind of cash lying around. I just hope the new owners don't take away those hot cheesy rolls that they give you before the main course comes. ...I saw a video on youtube about a guy that had no arms but still was able to play table tennis by holding the paddle in his mouth. I've got two arms and once I hit the ball so hard that it broke in two (ok, so it was kind of cracked before I hit it and all I did was finish the job) but this guy was more than holding his own and if I played against him I'd lose every time. It's impressive what some people can accomplish when they really want to do something. ...Law students at the University of California, Davis (which is west of Sacramento) have submitted an application to practice law to the State Bar of California on behalf of a man named Hong Yen Chang, who they claim was denied his chance to practice law solely because he was Chinese. This by the way happened way back in 1890 and these students want to do something about it now. Better late than never I say. Summer break's coming so they need something to occupy their time. Chang's application was turned down by the California Supreme Court because of a law at the time called the federal Chinese Exclusion Act and that barred Chinese natives from obtaining U.S. citizenship and California law prohibiting noncitizens from practicing law. I'm no lawyer but I can see why his application was denied all those one hundred and twenty four years ago and if Chang were around today and wanted to practice law it would not be an issue at all. He was given a wrong deal because he was a victim of the times that he lived in and nothing can be done about it now. You can not re-write history by campaigning to California's State Bar to give a posthumous law license to a man who has been dead eighty-eight years now just like you can't fix all the other injustices that happened over time to others. This is why when I hear about things like this going on I write it off as a huge waste of time. ...I've been playing a lot of High Heat baseball recently ever since Trues made a place in the download section for High Heat 2004. I've been alternating between the '02, '03 and '04 games with the 2003 edition being my favorite. There was one thing about this game that it didn't take me long to notice at all after playing just a few. Back when Mvp 2005 first came out we had threads in here that were about how bad the announcers were in that game and that Krukow and Kuiper were the worst part of it. They weren't kidding. Those two got annoying very quickly especially with those 'Big Boy' comments. But the two announcers that are in the High Heat games are no better. Every ground ball base hit is a "SMASH!!" and they seem to give up on the starting pitchers way too early. In one game I got my first two batters on via singles (smashes) and the announcer says "he's being pounded." After two batters? Next game, same thing although it was said this time in the second inning after I drove in two runs with an RBI double. It took OTBJoel years to finish his Legends of the Booth mod for Mvp. If he were to do the same thing for High Heat it would take him a month. ...David Ortiz must have been burning the phone lines at the MLB offices in New York because the ball that he hit in Texas last week off of Yu Darvish during his no-hit bid that was originally ruled an error has now been changed to a hit thanks to the constant crying and complaining he did. I knew that Bud Selig and everyone that works for him are more than willing to do back flips just to make Ortiz and the Red Sox happy but to be willing and then actually changing a rule that was clearly in the rule book just so the call can be in his favor is pathetic. ...And people in here and people that I know at home wonder why I have a white-hot hatred for that guy. The guy gets away with everything. He complains about his contract all the time and the media hardly says anything. Years ago when that report came out about the 103 players that took steroids he was on it but only Alex Rodriguez's name was made public. At the first game at Fenway Park after the Boston bombing they asked Ortiz to say a few words to the crowd - a crowd that included many small children- and during his speech he swore and nothing is said about it. Even the FCC said it was ok. Can you imagine Rodriguez addressing the Yankee Stadium crowd and saying "F***?" We would still be hearing about it. This is why I can't stand the guy. It has a lot more to do than the uniform he wears. ...Patriots fans had a pretty bad week too last week when Aaron Hernandez was indicted for the murders of two men in a drive-by shooting in July of 2012. This means that Hernandez is now charged with three murders and for the first time since he was arrested last year they are starting to believe that he won't be returning to the team. ...Finally, the Boston Bruins, the National Hockey League's classiest team. After their game seven choke against the Montreal Canadiens last Wednesday night they will be spending their off-season perfecting the water bottle toss and toning up on their poor sportsmanship skills. ...What a week!!!

That's ok. No problem.
