  1. It is going to be an interesting second half of the season. I still think we are shitty, and will finish in 3rd place in the NL Central, but I am not sure that the other teams are truly any better.
  2. Does it though? I use it for three or four other sites and they never have issues. I am not trying to pile on, just an observation. However, if the site sucks or goes down because of Tapa, fuck Tapa for this site I guess.
  3. I cannot bring myself to go back in, even for the entertainment value.
  4. I would imagine that you are right. My mother was out of work my Junior and Senior year of high school for treatment of leukemia, so we had my step-dads $34k a year job as household income. My mother had short term, and long term disability, but I was still ruled out from any aid. She worked a $75k per year job prior to being out of work.
  5. Seriously great for the state and for UT. The world needs ditch diggers, too.
  6. It is 100% a PR move.
  7. Ha. I was just stopping by to say that maybe I need to vacation more often if it results in 12-0 victories.
  8. You sound butthurt. Get in there, Max!
  9. Right? I mean how big of a loser do you have to be making millions, and still give a fuck about high school. I used to give Baker shit just because he was a sooner, but now I do so because he is just pathetic.
  10. This is what is hot in the streets.
  11. I have the league attached to my gmail account, and for some reason, the notifications end up in my Promotions tab.
  12. Lol, the sign switch made me laugh.
  13. I would love to take this series from the Cubs, but getting one would be huge.

    Although, I do agree I that I like the concept!

    I don’t think that it has a chance to put a dent into the console market, but we shall see. If they mess up the launch, with latency and queuing type issues, it will be over quickly. Not to mention, too many people do not have good enough internet, or large enough data caps, to make this overly viable.

    I am not a fan of a streaming service for my games, but I will be interested to see how this plays out. I also cannot see them competing with the established players (XBOX/PS) but maybe they will find a way to exist.
  17. I don’t care either way, but why is either is good thing?
  18. I think it goes deeper than politics as well. I stopped watching the shows because it was over-the-top. Everything had to have a message. Everyone had to scream. I can check my phone for scores and get highlights off of their app with less desire to vomit. I turned on Golic and Wingo this morning on my drive to work. I actually liked the first segment that they did, but then they played a clip of Stephen A screaming about Magic Johnson that went on for at least 60 seconds. I had to flip back to MLB Radio Network.
  19. We are about where I thought we would be. 500 ball club but not a real contender. I think that we overachieved in April and underachieved in May. We still need to find two more reliable starters. I feel like moving Wacha and Hudson might be good ideas. As much as I like Ozuna, I think there might be trade value out there for him. We have a lot of OFs already, so maybe we can package Ozuna and Wacha/Hudson in a deal for a starter or minor league depth. Waino is probably done but I can also see him being a gamer for us down the stretch. I would be ok with seeing what de Leon, Gomber and Reyes can do when healthy at the big league level.
  20. Bench is great for me as well. I have been grabbing cheap cards to go through each “level” for each team. I was able to get through most of the teams above by using the stubs that I earned through games.
  21. Move along, Bru. The last thing QB1 needs is a fucking flake at wideout. This program isn’t some Mack Brown juice box bullshit anymore.
  22. Cheap Live Series Collections to Finish. Pirates, reds (diamond Dave Parker), diamondbacks, twins, Miami, Texas, Oakland, white Sox, Detroit, KC, Baltimore and the free agents. All come with card rewards, but more importantly XP. The collections and conquests are good to boost XP for the XP rewards.
  23. Here are the gold players that I still use that I like a lot: Matt Chapman -3B love the diamond fielding rating Trea Turner SS - solid contact guy, great speed Jonathan Schoop 2B - throwback card / solid contact and good power against lefties. Johnny Bench C - solid contact and diamond fielding Tommy Pham - Bench Bat due to power against lefties Marcell Ozuna - Great balance for hitting both righties and lefties. Poor fielder though Kevin Kiemaier - Ok contact hitter, great diamond fielder Clark mentioned above Steve Garvey - Throwback great contact and gold fielding Keith Hernandez - 1B throwback. Good contact and fielding. Get him from the Hernandez conquest map. Brett Cecil Throwback Reliever - great bull pen arm Johnny Venters Throwback Reliever. Great arm and a bit over powered IMO Blame Treinen - Live Closer. *Sorry for the long list! These are all guys that I use over a good number of diamonds.
  24. I am just shooting to reach 200 stars each program. I would suggest doing every conquest possible. Free packs, cards and coins. Use the coins to complete cheap collections such as the A’s. The cards you get in packs will always be useful somewhere. I am in the same position as you. I get to play about 45 minutes each night, so my time is limited. Also, be sure to play Battle Royale and Events as much as possible to get some decent cards. You can also get a Diamond Griffey by completing one of the partner missions, if you have not done do. I will send over my team tonight, but I can tell you that I still roll with golds in many spots where I have diamonds. For instance, Will Clark’s Rangers card is only an 84, but I crush the ball with him.
  25. We need as many guys as possible playing in summer leagues. We need some other coach to help them figure it out.
