No there isn't. The best thing to do is turn off the announcers if Krukow is driving you nuts. I haven't listened to him in years and I have not missed anything.

I'm at a loss here. I am trying to post the rest of my weekly thread from May 12th and it won't accept it. It is like after a certain number of lines it won't accept your post. I don't know what I can do. -

Updated to 5-12 ...Some of the nuttiest stories that I see week after week have to deal with something that happens in schools or what goes on around them. This one here is no different. In fact it fits in perfectly. During a high school track and field competition in Texas the anchor runner of the winning relay team was penalized by officials for excessive celebrating after his team's victory which he and his entire team paid a very high price for. Once this kid knew that his school had won he pointed his index finger up at the sky to thank God for it. Not even before he lowered his finger school officials cried foul and said he "violated the excessive celebration rules" and his entire team was disqualified and because of this his school is eliminated and now unable to compete in the state championships later on this month. We've all seen over-the-top celebrations in sports before; hell, just watch an NFL game and wait for someone to score a touchdown. There you go. But this? A kid points up to heaven and that's it. He didn't break into a dance or give high-fives to the first ten people he saw. It's amazing how intolerant people are of those expressing their religious freedom and it also does not surprise me that this happened in Texas where God ranks a distant second in popularity behind all high school football coaches. ...No one would have blamed this kid at all had he given the officials another finger once he found out his team was eliminated like that. ...Has anyone ever noticed that the media just loves to use the word "alleged"? According to them Bin Laden was the alleged mastermind of the 9-11 attacks right up until the day he died and we threw him overboard in the ocean and just like Adam Lanza is still the alleged shooter at Sandy Hook. The two SOB's in Boston are the alleged bombers of the Boston Marathon and one of the brothers is allegedly dead. It goes on. By using this word does this protect them legally because if that's the case it makes them look less credible then they already are. ...It was nice to hear about former Yankee Hideki Matsui receiving the People's Honor Award in Japan last week. This is an award that the Japanese give to those who have made significant achievements in their careers and are beloved by the public and this describes Matsui perfectly. Alex Rodriguez by the way should not hold his breath in anticipation of receiving a similar award from the Dominican Republic any time soon. ...When Clay Buchholz was pitching up in Toronto the other week he was accused of doctoring the baseball because there was a substance that the Blue Jay announcers saw on his left arm. According to Major League Baseball (translation: Lord Selig) he was not cheating at all because they said he was using sunscreen on his arm and that's allowed and besides, he's not the only one who does it. If that's true then why didn't the Red Sox explain this the next day after it happened instead of waiting ten days? -
To test this out Trues try to post this article from CNN It's one of the longest news articles I could find on that site just to use for this test.

I still can't post the random thoughts post for the week. I'm trying to post about a 2,200 word post in there and that is something that's never been a problem before. When news articles in the past have been posted in here they've been longer than this. Well, we'll see.
-
Test to see if I am able to cut and paste under the IPB theme.
-
Yeah, I got no problem with it either but honestly anything looks good on this site.

Random Thoughts this week temporarily postponed until I am able to post the complete entry in here. Sorry. -
Wait a second. Why is it letting me post in here? EDIT: Ok, I tried to do it again and it says it is saving the post and nothing is happening. It's been about seven minutes now. I had to open up a new window just to make this post. The random thoughts post is much longer than this post here but I don't get why it is not accepting it.
-
Mike....another problem with the site. It is now letting you make a post but when you click on the POST button it does not post your new message to the board. I tried to update my random thoughts thread just now and it won't take. I was able to change the date on the thread but nothing else.

Dodger Stadium Crashes In The Middle Of 1St Inning
Yankee4Life replied to Marg's topic in MVP Baseball 2005
Search the stadium download section for the latest Dodger Stadium. I believe Dennis James has an updated version that he released. Edit: There is a problem right now on the site when you try to access the download area. Wait until it is fixed and search. Although now that I think about it you may want to search for a Dodger stadium that was uploaded before rolie did his because rolie made a special version of that park. -
Trying the 08 mod instead of the mvp 12 will not make a difference.

Give the guy his time. Working on a roster is a long and tedious job.

Updated to 5-5 ...Today is Cinco de Mayo day, a day in which I was amazed to find out originated in the Mexican-American communities of the Southwest and Western United States and not in Mexico as I originally thought after all these years. This celebration features highlights of the Mexican culture with plenty of music, dancing, food and a huge emphasis on alcoholic beverages. Since this popular holiday happened to fall on a Sunday this year some people decided to have a Cuatro de Mayo yesterday because someone happened to remember that there were a few truckloads of untouched and unconsumed beer last year and they didn't want that to happen two years in a row. ...Tim Tebow was released by the New York Jets last week which was no surprise to anyone and least of all to Tebow himself. He never got his uniform dirty all year except for the time when a teammate ran past him and splashed mud on his cleats. Aside from that he had the best seats in the house as the Jets went 6 - 10 on the year. Tebow shouldn't feel that bad about getting his release from this team. It's like getting fired from McDonald's. You know you're out of a job but it wasn't that much of a job to begin with. ...The rosters of two entire high school baseball teams in New Jersey were ejected in a recent game that lead to one arrest and the possibility of both teams having to forfeit their next two games by default. It all started with a botched squeeze play and the runner on third base being caught in no man's land coming down the line trying to score. Seeing that the squeeze didn't work out as planned the runner attempted to score by knocking the ball out of the catcher's hand. The catcher, it seemed, felt differently about the situation and after he picked himself up off the ground he let the base runner know how bad of an idea he thought this was by punching him in the head as many times as he was able to before being separated. That's when all hell broke loose and before long they discovered they couldn't continue the game anymore because there were no eligible players left to play. While the fight was going on a father of one of the players must have had ants in his pants watching all this because he jumped up out of his seat in the grandstand and got into fight with a kid from the opposing team. He was charged with assault, which is the price you pay when you punch a kid in front of many witnesses. And all this happened in New Jersey. Should this surprise anyone? ...A woman named Judy Clarke has been named to the defense team of the surviving brother who was responsible for the Boston Marathon bombings. She's supposed to be very good at her job because she was able to win life sentences instead of the death penalty for clients like the Unabomber and Jared Loughner, the person responsible for the shootings in Arizona that injured Gabrielle Giffords. Now that I think about it maybe this woman is too good at her job. And while I'm at it since when does this nineteen year old terrorist get his own defense team? This kid has four lawyers right now and you never know later on they could add more. I'd just like to know where the hell it's written that if you can't afford a lawyer four will be appointed for you? ...And I don't have to tell you who's going to be picking up the tab for all these billable hours these lawyers are going to build up. ...Three men visiting Saudi Arabia last week got their visit cut short when they were out one day walking around and were stopped by police and were informed that they were "too handsome" and would have to leave the country because they feared women might fall for them. That's the big difference between men and women in Saudi Arabia. If they think a man's too handsome they deport him. If a woman's too beautiful they just kill them. ...On the plus side, those guys now have the best pickup line ever. ...Exactly one week ago a twenty-four year old man attacked a choir in a New Mexico Catholic Church with a knife as soon as mass was over for the day. Four choir members were stabbed but fortunately none of the injuries were serious. Regular members of the church had no idea who he was but he's now facing numerous felony charges for his actions. Rumor has it though that the man was getting more and more frustrated with the choir as the mass went along after they kept on refusing to play his song requests. ...I understand that there are times when your temper gets the best of you but you should always be aware of where you are before you decide to start or finish something and when you are 23,000 feet up Mount Everest that is no place to do either. I'm talking of course about a fight last week between three European climbers and some local guides that were hired to help them get to the top of the mountain. Now I am not a professional climber in any stretch of the imagination unless you consider going from my cellar up to the second floor of my house climbing, but a general rule of thumb would not to be upsetting the guides that are with you because they still have to get you up there and more importantly back down to the ground. ...Chicago Cubs owner Tom Ricketts talked publicly last Wednesday about the possibility of the Cubs leaving Wrigley Field in case there is opposition for the new 6,000-square-foot video screen that he is planning on installing in left field. This is Ricketts' way of telling the owners of the rooftop bleachers across the street from Wrigley that if his plans for this screen, which is part of his $500 million park renovation is blocked, he will have no recourse but to move the team. Good for him. The rooftop businesses believe they have a say in the proposed upgrades because they have a contract with the Cubs in which they share 17 percent of their revenue with them but if they threaten legal action and by chance win they'll end up having great seats to a ballpark that will from now on be host to high school games. ...Tampa's David Price got into a little spat last week with home plate umpire Tom Hallion during a Rays game last week when he said the umpire swore at him as he was walking off the mound. Hallion naturally denied it and called Price a liar and Price responded on twitter that Hallion was "a coward." After careful consideration that must have taken all of ten minutes, Major League Baseball decided to fine Hallion, Price and two of his teammates one thousand dollars apiece. By fining everyone they figured they got the right guy, whoever he is. ...I miss the days when the umpires were there to call the game and not be part of it. Umpires like Doug Harvey, Steve Palermo, and Lou DiMuro for example were never like this. They just called the game and got more respect than some of these umpires these days will ever deserve. ...For the rest of his career every time Stephen Strasburg sneezes they are going to have an ambulance waiting and ready to take him to the hospital. ...Thank you New York Knicks for beating the Celtics in six games after taking a 3 - 0 lead in that series. Had they lost that we'd never hear the end of it. ...Curtis Granderson seems to be having a devil of a time up at the plate this year even though he has not had that many at-bats. He recently was hit with a pitch in his upper right arm in an extended spring training game the other day but it wasn't enough to have him taken out of the game. Granderson is still recovering from breaking his right forearm during his first plate appearance of the spring back in late February and is anxious to get back to the Yankees because no one on the team has been able to strike out as consistently as him. ...Well, at least he's got the most votes for moron-of-the-year Dept: A thirty-year-old New Hampshire man lost $2,600--his life savings--when he tried to win an Xbox Kinect at a carnival. Originally he went through $300 in a matter of minutes trying to win the item and when he came up empty he went home to get $2,300 more and before long that was gone too and worst of all he still did not have his Xbox Kinect. Since I am not an owner of the latest console systems I was not sure what exactly an Xbox Kinect was and most of all how much it cost. Every where I looked, Target, Walmart and Best Buy they all have it for around $100 so I was not sure why this guy didn't just go there and get it because if he would have done it like that he'd have never gone through the $300 let alone $2,600. Naturally when the following day rolled around and after thinking about what he did he called the police to accuse the carnival of swindling him. Anyone who's ever been to a carnival or a fair knows damn well going in the odds are stacked against you and when you spend this much money to win a one hundred dollar item you have more problems than a drained bank account. ...A Washington, D.C. Councilmember with one eye on votes and the other on media attention is planning on introducing a resolution to make the NFL Redskins change their name. If you are saying to yourself that this is not the first time you've heard of this you'd be right. This subject always seems to come up every so often after someone remembers the Redskins are still called the Redskins and then they protest loud enough to get a politician involved, which brings us to where we are now. With all the problems they have in Washington right now telling a football team to change their name should be the very least of what to spend time on. If I were Redskins owner Daniel Snyder the next time he is bothered with this name change talk he should say yes, I'll be happy to change the team's name. How does the Los Angeles Redskins sound to you? ...One of the biggest problems this country has is it is filled with people just waiting to be offended and they go out of their way to make sure they are. ...Because of the recent 1941 mod that just came out I dusted off my copy of Robert W. Creamer's book on baseball in 1941. I really don't need a reason to read a baseball book--once I even read a book on the Red Sox' Impossible Dream season of 1967 if you can believe that. Reading this book brought some of the lesser known characters of the 1941 season to life for me. He explained how a bench player by the name of Alf Anderson for the Pittsburgh Pirates threw a huge roadblock in the way of the Dodgers chase for the pennant that year. (Anderson, a .215 hitter on the year hit a triple to beat the Dodgers in a late September game. This made Dodger manager Leo Durocher furious since this was Anderson's second triple of the year.) Anderson's a guy that you'd never look at twice in the mod but that was his moment in the spotlight for his brief career. It was a great book to go along with a great mod. ...The Smithsonian Museum had a press conference last week when they announced the findings of dismemberment and cannibalization of a fourteen-year-old British girl in Jamestown, Virginia back in 1609. They went on to say that this was done by the other settlers there who were beyond the point of starvation. You really got to feel for this poor girl, dead these four hundred plus years now and you would have to wonder how her life would have been had there been a Pizza Hut around that made deliveries. ...Naturally I needed no further convincing to believe that Clay Buchholz is doctoring the ball. He's guilty. :D -
I totally missed that part. Thank you! :D
-
I don't even play 2k12 but I'm curious. What is this mod?
-
Never underestimate the power of actually doing a search, right Beaver? Good work!
-
It doesn't need to be re-uploaded. Go to the Mvp 2005 download area and go to the TUTORIALS section. There you go.
-
I don't know if you should look at it like that. Yeah you've been here awhile but you contribute by being a good member here. That's something. And since you've been here all this time you know I don't go out of my way to compliment Red Sox fans. It's against what I believe in. Right now my keyboard is sending electric shocks to my fingers for what I wrote but I'm still standing by it. Good luck man!

Try to update your database. That's where the rosters for the teams are located at. There's a guy here named daflyboys that comes out with these accurate and fantastic rosters so try his latest one he has in the download section. It is located right here. Always back up your files first. Now let me ask you this. Why did you fool with the models.big file? I know you are trying to isolate the problem but what exactly did you do here?
-
Did you add any new mods to this game? What I mean is there's the Mvp 12 mod and there are two patches for this game that kyleb released for the mod. Both of these patches do not affect gameplay at all. They are minor fixes in the game itself. Did you add any mods besides this?
-
Before you start from scratch try running this game through administration mode in Windows 7. That does make a difference.

Daammmmn, this guy knows how to advertise his stuff! Good luck man!
