Hey Dave, You have some great points about the steroid era; but Manny is a cheater because he was caught doing this crap for the 2nd time in 2 years when restrictions are the toughest…not in the classic steroid era when many players had a free pass with it. Manny is also garbage (and absolutely stupid) because he was trying to prolong his career by ripping one year contracts from the Dodgers (prior to the 2009 season) and getting caught…then he tries the same crap with the Rays this year. He was on a freefall of diminished skills and now hes probably jeopardized his chances in the Hall because of stupid greed and not riding it out like a regular guy. I agree with your point that obviously not all players of the late 80s and 90s and forward were roiding. I think there were thankfully plenty of class guys with gobs of talent that didnt fall into that trap like Bagwell,(you mentioned), Griffey, Mattingly, Larkin, Jeter, Bernie Williams and even solid players like Mark Grace. So, my point is that obviously everyone wasnt doing it and well probably never know the correct percentages of those who were…with that being said, all those roiders you mentioned dont mean anything in my book and I could give a s%#t if they get into the Hall. They are all grown men who made their decisions and I do not sympathize. About the only roider Ill give 2 points to is Andy Pettite because I think to date, he was the only player to at least admit it immediately and not lie about it like these other morons. Great points Dave. :good:

Y4L, Thank you so much for your always great reviews. I also hope you enjoy our mod and all of the subtle things that really 'pull you into' the era. I really liked one of Dave's 1st suggestions of getting rid of the logos of the modern teams...and it snowballed from there in a good way. I personally love this mod and try to play at least 4-5 times a week. Can't get enough of it. Keep having fun with it Y4L.

Wow, I cannot wait to try out the full-blown version of this Joel. Man, between your Legends from the Booth Mod, jogar's cyberfaces, and Dylan's schedule...plus the start of the season...this is baseball ecstasy. After you kindly let redeck and I use samples of your work in our Negro League "Phase" projects; I was very excited to see the complete version that I can plug into all of my Total Classics mods. As that horrible color guy, Mike Krukow says..."Oh partner, that was PHAT!!"...Awesome work Joel and thank you so much for your audio help with our projects these last few months too. :clapping:
