Nice post sabugo. Agreed 100%.

Was this kid beaten by others that she had to have surgery? If so there's no reason for it. When I was in school kids got picked on just like they have always been through the course of time but it seems worse today because the bullies use the internet to pick on their victims too and that makes everyone more aware of the victim. Same here. I've played on winning teams and losing teams and I've played on teams that should have won but lost the game at the very last minute. I'd go home upset with myself and I cried too. The next day I'd still be upset but I didn't cry anymore and before the day was out I was fine. And like you I didn't have a poor sense of self worth if I didn't get a hit or if I didn't make a catch. It just made me keep trying and my friends and I would keep practicing and playing ball. We were not about to quit when something didn't go our way. We didn't always have success but we still won more than we lost.

I just had a thought. If you can find out the name of the lawyer that is taking this lady's case maybe he can take yours because if he is seriously taking this one he should be open to anything. Ooh, you're playing with fire here when you even try to mention that evil word. As we speak, words of some popular songs that have that word in it are in the works now of being changed. Here's some examples of what's being re-worded now. I met him on a ...... and my heart stood still da do ron ron ron da do ron ron and Rainy days and ....... really get me down and Just another manic ......, ooooooooh oh oh Wish it was Sunday, oooooooooooh oh oh Cause that's my fun day, oooooooooh oh My I don't have to run day, oooooooooo oh Just another Manic ...... and Sunday ....... Happy Days Tuesday Wednesday Happy Days Thursday Friday Happy Days The weekend comes The cycle hums Ready to race with you As you can see scottybilly this word has snuck into our every day lives without any of us knowing about it and it is high time something's being done. I propose that we get rid of this word Monday (shock, gasp, faint) and replace it with Sunday, part two unless a more suitable phrase can be thought of.

Updated to 7-29 ...I am not going to be comfortable until Tuesday afternoon at 4 pm when all this trading stuff is done. There is so much more time until then for the Yankees to do something stupid. ...Penn State removed the statue of Joe Paterno from its pedestal outside Beaver Stadium and then stored it in a "secure location" (translation: they put it in the cellar) because by doing this they think it will fix everything. ...One person I feel sorry for is the public defender assigned to James Holmes in the Colorado shooting incident. She's probably going to try to argue him off of death row by using the insanity defense but if this guy is insane he did some pretty good manipulative planning before he became deranged. ...Bristol Palin's three year old son Tripp is showing that he's becoming a true Palin when he recently called his mother and aunt "******" on her reality show. What really made Bristol mad was that she couldn't blame this on Levi. ...Kirstie Alley is being sued by a woman who purchased a weight loss plan called Organic Liaison, a product that Alley is a paid spokeswoman of. After she bought the plan she did not lose any weight so she had to blame someone and she chose Alley. Alley lost over 100 pounds adhering to this plan while the only thing this woman lost was the money that she paid to sign up. If I were McDonalds and Burger King I'd wonder if she might come after them next since they provided her with multiple hamburgers that contributed to the delinquency of her diet. ...How about another one? There's this 17 year old kid in California who is filing a lawsuit against his teacher and school district because he received a C+ for a grade and because of that low grade is afraid he will not get into a college of his choice. His lawsuit states that he has "suffered severe physical and emotional suffering" because of this grade. That's lawyer talk for saying that he's upset about this. If this kid wins this case I'm going to go find a lawyer because when I took my Regents exam in Latin one year they had a mix up and gave us ten less minutes to take the test. With all the stupid lawsuits around, what's one more? ...As soon as Michael Jackson's lawyers finished paying his bills his brothers and sister Janet are trying to sink their greedy hands into what is left of his considerable estate proving that once again where there is a will there is a relative. ...How do you like that kid from England who snuck on a plane and made it all the way to Rome, Italy? The airline and airport security are in a bind about this because they don't know who to blame although if this kid would have had a four ounce bottle of water with him they'd have been all over him. ...A woman with a one year old son and her sister attempted to shoplift $57.12 worth of clothing from Walmart down in Florida last week and then tried to store their stash in the infant's diaper bag. They were immediately stopped by security as soon as they left the store and instead of coming back in the store they took off, leaving both the child and diaper bag full of retail behind. Both women were caught the very next day and are being held in jail. The one year old was released on his own recognizance. ...Weren't the Miami Marlins supposed to set the world on fire this year? These guys had the pennant wrapped up in the first week of March and then when the season started things started to look as bad as their new uniforms and now once again owner Jeffery Loria is getting rid of some of his top players because the Marlins are 14 games behind the first place Nationals and he is smart enough to know his team will never be mistaken for the 1978 Yankees. ...Up in Montreal they've seen Loria do this before and if you can understand French you'd know how mad they are. ...They'll never admit it but I think the reason why the Mariners let the Yankees have Ichiro Suzuki for so little was that they wanted to make up for giving them known damaged goods in Michael Pineda last off season. ...If Alex Rodriguez was hitting the ball like he should I would be more worried about him missing the next six weeks but since he's done nothing all year it will be more of the same because the Yankees have other players that can come up to bat with runners on base and strike out just like Rodriguez has been doing all year. ...Got to hand it to Zack Greinke. He really knows how to bail on teams when they aren't winning. He got the Royals to trade him to Milwaukee because Kansas City hasn't had a good team since the 80's and he was happy there last year because the Brewers went to the NLCS and now that the Brewers aren't winning this year got Milwaukee to trade him to the Angels partly because he didn't want to sign a contract extension with them. The Angels had better win the next few years or over pay him like C.J. Wilson to keep this guy around. ...The town of Elmira, New York was hit with a tornado yesterday that knocked over trees and power lines and left some residents there without power for awhile. Fortunately no one was hurt. This was the most excitement those people had since Sam's Club opened up down there.

You can't. It isn't uploaded on the website.

Who are you kidding?

Can I ask why you just didn't consult your manual for the game instead of asking this question?

I tried using the keyboard in Mvp once just to see how it was and I couldn't stand it. It is just so much easier with a controller.

Well I just watched this video and I did not understand one word this guy was saying, but I still stuck it out until the end. I did see the scene with the skeletons in the movie theater but I didn't understand why they were there or what it was supposed to mean and I do not think for one second that this should be associated with the movie theater incident in any way and if anyone tries doing that they are just grasping at straws. Police believe this James Holmes guy had this planned long in advance and he didn't get his idea from watching this.

Didn't look like a changeup, but if it was it got him in just the right spot. Oh well.

Welcome back to Mvp baseball!

This next video is something that I suppose I should call a "you had to be there at that time" video because even though he is still around today Billy Squier was at his peak in the early 1980's and this song here Rock me Tonite was one of his best. I picked out this particular video because this is when turntables were still very popular to have. CD's were just starting to hit the marketplace and the first ones were very expensive too. With a good speaker system the LP's sounded good but I will still stick with CD's. I'd be very curious to know how many of you remember this guy or even heard of him.

Hahahahahaha!

I got to be in the right mood to listen to these guys but there's no taking away that they are one of the best. Here's Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bpzxf_flm8M

You're right. In 37 games with the Yankees in 2010 Berkman hit .255 with one home run and nine RBI. I don't know why Girardi thought with numbers like that that Berkman was "on a roll" during his time in New York. Sometimes baseball managers have to be politicians too.

I still will go as far as saying it is unacceptable. It is also a courtesy as you said but with all the work that is put into mods. I don't accept the way some people think the mods are made and posted for them and you can't even get a thank you out of them. It would be easier if you pulled every one of their teeth before those two words come out of their mouths. I always thank the modder for his work. One mouse click will not take me away from the rest of my day. You want an even worse example Dennis? Go and take a look at Total Classics Phase 10. Jim released that a little over three years ago. This TC series has been downloaded 12,522 times as of this writing and only 8 people gave it a rating. Again, unacceptable.

I also think this is a great idea and I hope people follow your suggestion daflyboys. And as far as rating the mods goes, I have been asking everyone in here to rate mods for years now and they don't. Take a look at Mvp 12 and you'll see what I mean. Right now it has been downloaded 1,132 times and only 21 people gave it a rating. Completely unacceptable.

Agreed 100%

That's the same kind I had. I don't think blitzballs were around then. And I'll tell you guys like KC and SESBB30, those things didn't weigh much as Joe Rudi said but they still could cause some damage in someone's backyard when you hit them hard enough. I can recall one breaking a flower pot once.

You're kidding? So did we. Every single day in the summer. When we didn't get enough people for a game we played in the street. And we would save our money and buy brand new tennis balls from department stores because the ones that came directly out of the can had the best bounce to them and when you got a hold of one it went. And for everyone else reading this, tennis balls do hurt. You may not think so but they hurt if you got hit by one of them on a line drive (I can vouch for that) and also when you are up at bat and one hits you. But it was fun and I would give anything to play it again today.

The closest we got was this one guy who had it in his head that he could throw curve balls with it and he almost did but the ball always curved into us batters and we kept on getting hit from the head down to the knees.

I completely forgot that.

I played a lot of wiffle ball back in the B.C. days (before computers) and none of us ever pitched like these guys.

That's right. So if you really want to do this right Jim you have to do three things? Put the new stadium you want in to replace the minor league one (1) and then rename the LOC file (2) and then you got to find out the correct file name of the stadium photo and change that in Eagraph (3). Well, that's not bad but I want to stick with these minor league parks in this mod. If I want to use the Polo Grounds I'll play in another mod. Problem solved.
