Then I remember one of the OS guys on there, I think it was one of their admin mods, I forgot his name, he was a real control freak jerk type, exposed me - which I think is called doxxed now - because he traced my IP address at work. AT that time yes I did work for EA and was shitting on my own company's baseball game and favoring the competition. Even though I had nothing to do w/ the baseball developers at the company. Luckily nothing happened but what a wild time.

This is absolutely the most "on brand" thing that I would expect in the history of forums for you.

Work your magic and have EA bring back Triple Play or MVP Baseball. Or for that matter, make a new Super Mega Baseball, those bastards!

I haven't worked there since 2011. I dont think anyone is around since I was there.

I am still around as well. Still gaming but now retired. Still come on once in a while to check out the music thread to see what’s new or to check when a new sports game comes out. This place was way ahead of the curve and made the great decision to drop all political discussion (a great move).

I switched to PlayStation 4 because of the way XboxOne started out. I almost completely fell out of gaming, but the Xbox Series X got me through the Covid years with game pass and their focus on backward compatibility and improving frame rates for older games. Not sure what I will do going forward. Usually by this point in the cycle you can pick up a used console on the cheap and I could see what I missed on PS5, but those days are gone.

We moved north a few years back to be closer to my family. This winter really sucked. I think my old plan of dropping dead working in the yard in the Georgia heat is better than dropping dead shoveling snow.

[tjung0831]

there have been a few st louis ppl on the forums lately. got me to thinking, whatever happened to that guy tjung? is he still alive? anyone kept in touch with him? he still working at the federal reserve?

btw Sportsreviewers 25th anniversary this April

I’m still alive…don’t game near as much as I used to. It’s been a long time since I worked at the federal reserve..lol

yes i remember you kevinpars. i think we played NHL 2K something - the first one on xbox live - back in the day and had a bunch of fun games.

Are you from PA? I remember there were two guys from PA that I use to play that NHL game on a regular basis back in the day along with you.

Remember back when this all started and we could go into electronics boutique and buy three different games of the same sport (that were all released within days of each other)....take them home and try them out...pick one for the season and return the rest with no questions asked??

I believe one of the Pennsylvania guys was Leebo33. I also remember webdanzer being a fine fellow. So many names from the past, I love this thread

yes that was his name , leebo,, thanks. I think at the time he was further along in life then me then where he already had a family and older kids. I bet he's probably retired now too.

i remember webdanzer too but didnt converse with him much.

Thanks for remembering me! I really miss those days and all you guys. I can't even remember how I ended up at Sportsreviewers, but looking back I'm so glad I did. The two boys in my profile pic are all grown up now. One recently graduated from Pitt and the other is a junior at Creighton. I turned 58 and retirement is in the near future, although I really enjoy what I do and found a reasonable work-life balance. It's also rewarding to be a mentor and see my "coaching tree" grow at the company I've worked at for 26 years.

Don't let the profile pic fool you (I'm a huge baseball fan and the picture is at Camden yards which isn't far away), I am definitely a "Pennsylvania guy." I grew up near Pittsburgh, graduated from PSU (I wonder what HipE is doing every time we play Iowa), and have lived in Harrisburg for the past 3 decades. I believe Diablo will have a different rooting interest in the Pens/Flyers series, although we can both root for the Sixers.

The main reason I haven't been around is family life and work but also that my main hobby became board gaming. I can actually thank DSP for that as I remember the board game threads vividly. I followed Danimal and Web's recommendations for beginner games and been hooked ever since. What started with 7 Wonders and Lords of Waterdeep turned into a collection of hundreds and 8 hour war games with 40 page rulebooks.

It's good to see that I'm still in the Top 20 in all time posts. I think there was a time I was third (nobody was catching Paul, "The Great One", on that list). I won't stay away so long this time and it was good reading this thread and catching up!
