I watched PTI the other night and heard Mike Wilbon refer to Cooke as a Thug. Yes I'm from Pittsburgh. Cooke's skate was a little high but if you lookk at the replay and watched the game Cooke was looking to tie Karlson up while in the same motion protecting himself from taking an elbow to the head ...

I think part of the problem for at least PS3 users is that the player reaction and gameplay is a downgrade from 2K11 which was such a superb game. In my opinion the odd years for 2K have been better than the even years. I felt 2K9 was a great and better game than 2K10. It appears to be a two year ...

As a Pirate fan and someone who watched him play this has to be one of baseball's greatest injustice. I knew once he passed the commitee would vote him in. He was a complete ballplayer and should have been enshrined 30 years ago. I believe the good Lord is letting Harry and Ron celebrate.

Disappointed in the Classic Stadiums. The one thing I was looking forward to was Forbes Field and they eliminated the outfield. The uniqueness of Forbes Field was the three tiered right field roof. The game is still akeeper

Yeah, I was disappointed that they went with "1920's Forbes Field"

Kinda strange -- after I load an in-game save, I notice my settings are all changed (difficulty level, camera settings, etc).

Anyone else?
Same here I just ignore it and load my settings from my last desired change .. There are a few minor glitches like I had it freeze at games end. I've read ...

White people are always right, thats the bottom line. Always trying to flip the script and point the finger at someone else. Its the rappers fault, rappers used these words all the time, the old deflection trick. Yes Al and Jesse are at least to me are shaddy and have said some racist thing.

You ...

Unfortunately, it's another lost opportunity to unite people of different backgrounds.. Add the Duke Lacrosse situation to the mix and the remarks of Sharpton and Jackson and we have Americas Double Standard. Don't forget the Michael Richards racist tirade. Imus is no different than those clowns. It ...

Man some of you went overboard on the sensitivity scale and know how to take the fun out of humor. I thought it was quite amusing and have seen it before but never heard or saw this type of reaction. Though you're wrong about RC cola, okra and paying the football coach, you got Heinz ketchup right ...

Imo yes. If he had made the same "joke" about black people I would want his ass canned.

I have absolutely no problem with this standard as long as the same thing applies to guys like Charles Barkley.

There is a double standard against whites. Barkley is the Black Limbaugh and should have been ...

I just bought a '06 Pontiac Vibe. The Vibe wasn't even on my radar until I asked my mechanic for a recommendation. He said he rarely fixes anything major on them. Has a 1.8 litre Toyota engine (same vehicle as Toyota Matrix and 3Ks cheaper) and Consumer Reports gave it a recommendation rating. I ...

So I come home from work today and the first thing I see on the news is that FSN Pittsburgh has fired Mike Lange as Penguins announcer, WTF? :evil:

Say what? There's only one larger legend in Penguins' hockey, and that's No. 66.

PK

This is as big as the Pirates firing Bob Prince in the 70s ...

I tried lowering the pitch speed and noticed some deception for the offspeed pitches but I was able to quickly recognize the fastball.

I too fear slideritis as it takes a few games to notice the changes. My scores are still random and Pujols is the only guy throwing off the curve in the stats, as ...

In my opinion with umpire set to wide it most often benefits the pitcher with the higher rating.

For kicks I turned the sliders for power & contact to max (both teams). I figure I'd do it for a few innings knock out the starting pitcher Tim Stauffer and adjust it back to default when a never seen ...

Well I'm at the All-Star break playing between All-Star and HOF. As the fantasyland Pirates (cause the real ones suck), Pujols is hitting 513 with 40Hrs & 109 RBIs. He even hits when I sim the inning he's due up. I have three players tied for 2nd in Hrs with 6 and nobody else has more than 40 RBIS ...

Man you guys playing on HOF -- I bow down to your baseball gaming prowess! I can't make contact on that lvl to save my life.



What's the secret to hitting on HOF? (Don't say be patient or I'll virtually flog you Millennium, heh)

.

OK I won't say it. I don't find hitting this year as difficult ...

This has come up several times in the past. This is the only official rule on hitting streaks according to Baseball Almanac

30+ Game Hitting Streaks
Rule 10.24 of the Major League Baseball Official Rule Book states the following guidelines for cumulative performance records (specifically those ...

I have been complaining that hitting is too easy. However my son pointed out that my fantasy roster hitters include Pujols, Rolen, Nixon, Crisp, Hermedia, Delmon Young, V Martinez, Reyes, Everitt, L. Gonzales (IF), Morneau, Doumitt, Edw Encarcion, A Marte, & Monroe. I don't have an easy out in my ...

I tried adjusting the sliders every couple innings for variety to keep the games close, so I can set my self up for a save situation. I'm wondering if there is a chemistry thing in this game. I'm unstoppable hitting and pitching. I gave Pujols a day off and got trashed. I was up by 6 in the 7th and ...

Dude you look good. You got it right. It's all about the kids.

Well in my fantasy league I am 19-9. Pujols has 22 Hrs and 33 RBIs (I can't bunt with him and still would be a dinger) and is hitting 607. His player progression is all thumbs down. Veteran, All-Star, HOF he's still a beast.

Rolen hovering around 200 I can't by a HR with him and 5 RBIs. Maybe this ...

God Bless your Dad those types are inspirational. My Dad went from working in the mill to management and became a mill suit. All I remember hearing was how he needed to get in shape. Well he died at 53 right after our oldest was born and his dad died at 54. So neither I or my boys met their paps. I ...

I'm 44 and in better shape than when I was 34. At 39 I broke my hip playing basketball and was told my playing days were over. My youngest was 2 he's 7 now and that was all the motivation I needed. I got on different rehab routines but it felt like work. My full-time job is as a juvenile corrections ...

I still wonder if the difficulty level makes a difference in CPU hitting? I don't think it really does.

Someone mentioned upping the CPU contact and power to +15.

I'm noticing an increase in the computer fielding and a higher percentage of popups when using power (which I don't normally do but ...

There goes my theory. On veteran with no tweaks Washburn 3 hit me in a 2-1 dual with Zach Duke. I had a ball go right through Rolen at third (fielding glitch?), but note he is now something like 3-56 at the plate with all thumbs down. Maybe that has something to do with it.

I also played my first ...
