I seen this happen before. Usually, it's someone pro-union who's ticked, esp if he/she sees anyone helping-out.

NL-Cuz I was raised in a NL town (STL). I have many friends who grew in AL towns and love the AL.

I dig the line-up strategies in the NL. Double Switch anyone?

I even had a beanball-fest in my O's season against the Red Sox (they started it after I hit a home run). I ended up getting my manager tossed, my pitcher ejected, and after Wakefield nailed one of my guys he was clobbered in the head by a line drive and got a concussion from it! Just an ugly game ...

Man, now that I have my sliders in-order, I'm loving the game. I struggled through 40+ games last year and finally gave-up. The differences may seem stuble at first, but it is WORLDS better that 06. WORLDS!

I played the hell out Virt Tennis on the Dreamcast. I was totally put-off by the diving. Yeah, on dcast version you could get to balls that no human could possibly get to, but in this version they replaced that animation with dives. makes no sense visually.

Some things never change. You will not see anymore hd games than you did at the end of last year....and for 40 bucks more. I can attest directv is absolutely the worst hd provider you can get.

I'm not sure if it's in-stores yet, but the new Modest Mouse is a hoot. Not nearly as "rock rock" as the Good News, but still good stuff.

They're not anywhere close to being there yet, at least not in this country, but I think the Kings of Leon have a chance of becoming a monster of rock someday in the AC/DC mold. Hopefully their next album in April will contain some more of the old fashioned hard rocking done on their first two albu...

IMO "monsters of rock" = bands who could sell-out places like Staples or MSG in the first day of sale. So... U2 Green Day Prince? Who else? Nostalgia acts like Rolling Stones, McCartney, Eagles, etc.. are a whole different deal. Other bands like Wilco, Radohead, Nickelback (?), White Stripes, have t...

I made the batting view slider to 90 and wow, you're right, what a difference it makes. First, it's cool to see that view where you are basically eye to eye with the pitcher. And yes, you do pick up the ball much better. My only problem now is it's making hitting too easy for me. The one thing I do...

My biggest complaint last year (360) was how everything seemed so "clunky" - from camera transitions, fielding, and overall presentations. Seems like everything has been very "smoothed out" this year. Batting and pitching seemed identical, in a good way, it was 'everything else' that needed work. Ho...
