  1. Played this game in college on XBox for hours against guys on my floor. is that the one with don't look at me that wayyyy, it was an honest mistaaake or he rocks his iroc-z, he rocks it well...something something finger tapping yeah van halen is the man? Yes it is. The MVP mod soundtracks are pretty bad though. They have horrible selections, though I'm assuming it's comprised of song selections from each of the contributors rather than a moderator of good taste. It';s not that the songs are bad, per se, but the original MVP games, somehow, always picked really good songs that seemed to fit well with the feel of the game. The MVP 14 mod was basically a bunch of EDM and dubstep and like a Bonnie Raitt track thrown in there or something. Tessie, enough said McGravy shouted. Or something like that.

  3. Why would you not go when you may miss the chance to see a no-hitter in person?
  4. So he's Billy Butler? Billy Butler steals bases.
  5. Not using MLB.tv tonight, but it has been awesome for me this year on PS3 when wired straight in. Hungup once yesterday for about 3 seconds. That was it.
  6. We're bringing up the rear on BABIP on solid contact w/ RISP right? BABIPSCRISP.
  7. So many fat pitches to hit. Give Castro one too please.
  8. Rizzo getting hits and Lester settling down is making me happy.
  9. Fairly certain. Yeah, my friend brought in a slice of Bacci on opening night. He is very cheap so he likes gigantic slices of pizza for not much money. Yeah, get one of those burritos from the Mexican place right underneath the El tracks.
  10. I know we're all against exploding scoreboards and "Respect Wrigley," but if they had an awesome graphic that made it look like the video board is really exploding if a Cubs player hits a HR that would be really cool. Especially if they just do it the first time and half the people think Soler really just broke the video board.
  11. I would just assume they need to work cheap and live close by. If you show up and don't leave the scheduler out to dry you can work as much as you want.
  12. "If Monday was a strikeout." Lol How in the [expletive] hell can that ump sit there and call that [expletive] a strike You go to many youth baseball games?
  13. "If Monday was a strikeout." Lol
  14. yeah thats the part i just can't buy about mojos argument there is no self loathing. we aren't 80 years old. we've had some heartbreak, but so has pretty much every team. and after the last 5 years, yeah, my overall 20 years as a cubs fan have gotten much worse, but it was a halfway decent ride up until then...especially since the success came as i got older and i got some of the [expletive] teams out of the way when i was young and dumb enough to not care much and have guys like scott bullett and ozzie timmons as my favorite players. at this point i'd say in the span that i've cared about the cubs...so 1995-2015, i'd guess we're on the low end of average thanks mostly to the black hole that has been the past 5. do the royals automatically get to jump us in that span because of that playoff run last year? If you have a pennant (and that was quite a run too). Maybe. Although I don't think I trade 1998, 2003 and 2008 and other competitive years for just one pennant. Those years were fun in a lot of ways. Royals have been on Sunday Night Baseball like twice.
  15. Yes, the "I've been waiting my whole life" mid-twenties Cubs fans. So have 20 other teams' fan bases (assuming you started paying attention at a really early age in about 1994 or so). And some of them have had a lot more crappy time waiting. Honestly, if it weren't for the two gift-wrapped WS the Cardinals got The whole 1908 thing would mean nothing to me whatsoever.
  16. I vote the Cubs rip off this design for their NLDS scorecards this year but they do something with the standings instead. But, seriously, most baseball fans suck. The Cardinals fans are annoying because their team wins and this somehow means that they are better fans than everyone else. That's pretty much it.
  17. The Budweiser sign is going above the video board when it's done, correct?
  18. I'm ok with them doing that, but don't turn around and act like you are so much more classy than everybody else.
  19. With that much luck Cubs should have scored 6+ that inning.
  20. Home plate umpire keeping the Cardinals in the game. Usual.
