Sure man, fire away. I need all the practice I can get. :hi:

Thanks Y4L. I've only done a couple of these in my life, I just thought I'd post it here and see if some of the other guys that have more experience might give me a couple of pointers. The really good ones that I've seen seem to have something that ties the whole thing together, I just feel like it's missing 'that' thing. Just not sure what it is.

Trying my hand at wallpapers. I haven't done many, so any feedback/criticism is welcome.  The more I look at it, the less I like the Rays Sun logo on the left, and it seems a bit empty at the top.

I bought the PS3 in March of last year soley to play The Show '08.  Since then, I've picked up 8 or 9 games and have come to the conclusion that the PS3 might just be the best gaming system to date.  I'm still holding out hope for next year, but ironically, The Show is the only one I don't play.

I don't usually spend much time sig making in Photoshop, but I had a little time earlier and threw a Cano sig together. Please, be gentle.

Man, rick, what a tough season. It's frustrating not being able to string enough wins together to get over that .500 hump, let alone just being able to compete in the division. You've got a handful of games left, maybe you can pull out something positive.

I second that. We'll still be here, rick. Hopefully we'll still get to see how it pans out. Good luck with school!

Tough loss, rick, we never seem to be on the winning end of these, do we?  Man, what a day for Chris Davis, for some reason he's tough on me too.  You got nearly two months left to gain some ground, keep fighting.   B)

Aw man, tough loss, rick.  5 runs in the 8th??  I hate games like this, you cruise almost the entire game with a comfortable lead, and then suddenly it's completely taken from you.  I'd rather be beaten the WHOLE game than to lose like this.   It's games like this that make you  want to pull your hair out, especially if every one counts.   <_<

I hope you're right.  I'm exactly .500 (18-18) in the division.  If I can manage to stay there, hopefully I can get the help I need to stay on top. I can't take another 7 game skid.  That would be the end.

Other than LAA and Tampa Bay, their schedule looks pretty weak.  Of course, I need all the help I can get.

Excellent job, man. I know you've come a long way to get into the mix of things. I don't want to sound negative on my part, but if I were a betting man I don't have much hope for my A's. But it's been fun. :)

Wow, looks great rick!  Man, those races are pretty tight.  Can't wait to see how it pans out.   ^_^

Holy crap, rick, you're not mad are you? Wish my boys would grow a pair and win a few games.

Good job, rick.  I'd give anything for 3 in a row right now.

Good win, rick.  Feels good to finally get one doesn't it?   B)

Wow, that's more than 2 months ago.  Good luck.

Good luck against the A's, rick. It's crunch time. *Edit - I posted that right before I saw the results. Tough luck, man. Hard to believe you're having such a miserable season. Only a miracle gets you in now.

Really? 3 games under .500 and lead the division? Seems like I've seen this before..

Geesh, are they really that bad in your game too?   ^_^

Good luck against the A's. (yeah, right)

Good luck against the Twins, rick. ....focus...   ^_^

11 games back with 60 to go? Maybe not plausible, but still possible. Anyway, glad to see you back, and I'll be following as usual. BTW, I started a The Show '09 Review Thread, and I understand you've had the game for quite some time now. I'd love to hear your impartial review. :D

rick, I know it's been awhile since you updated, but hopefully you haven't given up on this dynasty.  I went back 5 or 6 pages and didn't see any standings, so at 8 games back in the east I really don't know where you stand, assuming the last posted game was the last that you played. My point is, I've been 7 games under .500 and have fought my way back to a somewhat respectable position in my division, and I just wanted to say maybe there's hope and that you haven't quite given up on this. Anyway, good luck and hope to see you start posting again.

Ouch rick, you're flirting with the abyss.  I think 7 games under .500 has been my worse record so far this season.  If I was in the EAST, my season would probably be over already.
