I'm always amazed when some terrorist attack of this sort happens because they're generally perpetrated by complete screw-ups in life, who somehow were able to plan and execute complex plans, involving a lot of variables. They always lack the self-awareness to tell themselves: 'Dude, look at the complexity of what you planned. You could actually do something with your life. Go on and invent a better wheel, a five legged table or whatever'. I don't think A-Rod is brittle, he's just aging...And he will be for the next 5 or 6 years the Yankees have him signed for.

Hanley Ramirez traded to the Dodgers, where he will play SS at least until Dee Gordon comes back. Hanley at 3B... well, that crashed and burned fast... Wandy Rodriguez to the Pirates. Smart of them. Anything to prevent a repeat of last season's 2nd half collapse. Wandy should come in handy. A-Rod breaks hand. Seems the more I talk trash about him, the better he plays. Then when he's finally getting some hits, making his existence in the Yankees lineup almost tolerable, King Felix breaks his hand... I just hope Eric Chavez can handle all that time in the field until 'The Alex' returns.

The Yankee Stadium should also hide some of his offensive decline. Let's just hope it doesn't hide it too much so that we don't do anything stupid in the offseason like re-signing him. Also, I was a little puzzled by this: "A couple years ago, we acquired Lance Berkman . He was huge for us down the stretch and the end of the year. He just got on a roll and I think Ichiro can do the same thing." As I remember it, Berkman wasn't so huge. But I get why Girardi said it.

And I was terrified of what the Yankees might do, and then they go and get Ichiro for virtually nothing. Nice! Ibanez and Jones have been spending way too much time in the outfield. Better put them back in the DH spot before they get hurt. And Ichiro can still play defense. Besides, the marketing aspect of this trade will be huge.

Maybe her pretext was that she wanted to save him or something. Anyway, who are we to be making sense of a crazy person...

What's up with crazy women and stalking GM's ? Last year it was Cashman, this year Epstein. I thought you had to play to be eligible to be stalked. Wife burning burgers...check! Being lost on the road and not admitting to the Mrs... Check! Never met Bon Jovi either, but that's fine. And yes, I'm always terrified of what the Yankees might do at this time of the year.

Oh, you went from the power-mod to the can't hit for power-mod. Cool. Suggestions after Mauer: Coco Crisp, Dee Gordon, Jose Altuve, Nyjer Morgan. Great work with the power mod. PS: Due to his recent performance I desperatly want to say 'A-Rod', but the man has hit over 600 home runs...

He just spoke his mind. I happen to agree with him. He keeps saying he's good friends with A-Rod, so he probably told him all of this before. If that's true none of this should be a surprise to nobody. And yeah, A-Rod chokes again.

A-Rod at the plate with 2 outs bases loaded and the Yankees trailing 10-8. Let's see how he does. Popout...

Agree on just about everything. Hardly a surprise that Reggie got in trouble by opening his mouth, something that he has been doing for the past 30 years or so. And comparing to some things he said in the past, what he said was pretty small stuff for such a big mess created over it. And I'd be glad if A-Rod could hit singles. Then again, with all that money, maybe his luck would change if he turned to scientology. Or maybe not :diablo:

That sounds right, to complete the power-hitter pack. If you want two more, add Hosmer and Stanton.

I know what you mean, I have some knowledge of programming. I know how hard and frustrating it can be. But this just seems...stupid.

It still amazes me how some things get past the beta-testing and bug-correcting phases.

Just tried the date thing, it worked. For some reason, when you go to the main screen on the 9th of July, the game crashes. Must be something related to the ASG. Great job of programming and checking 2ksports. I tend to never criticize others' work, but you guys are making seriously consider buying a PS3. And of course, now I have to re-install every single mod I had.

Yup, random AI game, aka 'Demo Mode'. After even more trying and testing, I'm with you on this one, it's gotta be 2k related. And since they don't seem to care, I believe we are royally screwed. I'm all out of ideas of new things to try and check...

It's gotta be something interacting with the menus or whatever. Demo mode works for me as well.

What could be updated/installed without any of us noticing? Directx ? Windows updates ? Anything ingame ?

Something had to change, we just can't figure out what. Did this problem happen to all of us at around the same time (The last couple of days) or is anyone else having it for longer? Something changed for sure. Now, where? Re-installing didn't work for any of us, so it shoudln't be anything associated with the game files, right? Re-booting worked for some of us, for some time, and that makes me think 'Windows'.

Nothing was installed or changed, in my case.

Same thing here. Always played fine until yesterday... Went trough all the steps, with the re-installing, the checking and re-checking the files in the 'Saves' folder, etc. At one point I could just reboot and play with no problems. Then, even that went to hell. It just happened all of a sudden. I didn't install anything, update drivers, nothing different from every other day I played this game. I'm all out of ideas for this one, and since 2k won't care...what's left to do? Edit1: I am from Europe, but I doubt that would be an issue. Edit2: I am also around the 30 game mark with my current season. I had another one with around 60 games played.

Awesome job man. Just a couple of things I noticed: - Andy Pettitte has a generic portrait and cyberface and I believe there is a real one available in the game files - Great job with the uniform colors but the NYY hats still look too light. (Though I'm not sure if that's a thing you can do anything about with a roster file and there are files available that correct this) - I downloaded one roster update which had correct career stats for Manny Ramirez and some others. Is there a way you can link the player with its real stats? It's a minor thing, but I just thought it would be interesting. - Retired players like Posada, Glaus, Varitek and Wakefield are still present and have decent ratings. It's a growing trend for players to unretire, but Glaus for example hasn't played in like two years. I think it would be more realistic either to delete them or give them crappy ratings so that no team would sign them during the season. Watching Varitek and Wakefield or Posada play for anyone else but the Sox and Yankees sure would suck. And finally a question, are the players who are injured for the whole lenght of the season be 'healed' in your following updates? Once again, great job, thank you for all the work.
