QUOTE (kev211 @ Mar 2, 2010 -> 02:04 AM) The graphics and game are amazing. When they first showed Gordon Beckham I almost died at how much he looked exactly like Gordon. I started with an exhibition game vs the cubs, and I won 2-1. Peavy pitched 6 innings of 1 run baseball making one mistake to Soriano. Thorntan is absolutely unhittable in this game it appears. Pierre had 2 bunt hits, Teahan had 3 singles, Rios we 2-4 with a double, and Beckham had the GW RBI. A couple other guys had singles as well. The game is awesome. You seem excited. As am I, but I'll have to wait till after baseball tryouts tomorrow (How do you get your mind off baseball!? MORE BASEBALL!). 2k10, however, seems to not fair as nicely http://ps3.ign.com/articles/107/1073296p2.html No check swings and my player mode seems to suck. Reviewer failed for mentioning trading draft picks.

Today my PS3 thought it was 04/29/2020. It reset via internet to be right thank god.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Mar 1, 2010 -> 11:40 AM) Pre-ordered my copy of The Show 2010 this morning. Is anyone going to set up an online league? I didn't buy the 09 version so i wasn't able to do it, but i'd be interested this year. I think a SoxTalk MLB10 the Show League would be pretty sweet.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 1, 2010 -> 10:31 PM) The Bulls would get that #5 seed if they could just become and stay healthy. But that seems unlikely. Tonight has disaster written all over it with Deng and Noah hurt, plus an opponent in Atlanta who has dominated the Bulls recently as it is. Between Joakim and TCQ, I hate plantar fasciitis.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 1, 2010 -> 10:37 PM) Looks like they definitely made the place left handed hitter friendly, no surprise. It looks like it could just generally be a hitter friendly ballpark though (just particularly to RF), although it's impossible to say just by looking at the dimensions. You never know how the ball will carry, how the place plays day vs. night, how the wind currents tend to blow/how strong they are/how much of an effect they have, etc. Will be interesting to find out. I'd laugh so hard if the wind made the balls to RF die.

A-Gon is flattered Peavy wants him, but is 100% Padre. http://danny-knobler.blogs.cbssports.com/m...ntryListMiniCnt

I say we get them armored segues with the speed of Ferraris.

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Mar 1, 2010 -> 01:27 PM) Yeah it's the internal clock. People who upgraded their hard drive from what I've heard aren't having any problems so far. Basically, if you're is messed up, any games that require trophies will not play. Someone told me a work around until it does get fixed is to go to settings, disable internet and adjust the date and time. Once you do, you can play offline Nah, mine was infected and I swapped out my hard drive. I better be able to play the Show tomorrow after baseball practice... PSN in my sig now.

Well, that game was good at the end of the third and start of the fourth, it just got away from them then. I miss Joakim.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Mar 1, 2010 -> 07:53 PM) This made me laugh. I've yet to see any predictions that didn't include the twinkies as contending for the division. I hate these lame motivational moves. ...most places are picking them as the contender to win. I will go to a Twins game, to tell him he is stupid.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Mar 1, 2010 -> 06:38 PM) Jimmy...

Good piece of work there Joe. Did it dawn on you that this photo sucks? *Bitter move over the Cowley flames being field by him earlier*

For what it's worth, I would easily offer Gordon this contract right now. It's so team friendly in the long run with the options.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Mar 1, 2010 -> 01:56 AM) To which I respond to some of you..... EAT MY SHORTS! Hmmm, shorts.

QUOTE (chisoxfan09 @ Mar 1, 2010 -> 01:10 AM) I think if PK didn't have such an albatross for his final year contract he would be more marketable. Then again if KW can convince JR to eat maybe a portion of the contract (4-5 mil) then he becomes a little bit more attractive. It might have to be a 3 team blockbuster if the Pads don't budge on the offers KW makes if we go after AGon. Just sayin there may be more than 2 players in this dance. I'm tired of hearing Paulie being badmouthed for his contract. Would you expect Adrian Gonzalez to take a 5 year 60M, because at the time of his contract, Paulie was Adrian Gonzalez or Justin Morneau, whichever you prefer. So you know what? Let's say we get Gonzalez, and sign him to an extension. Chances are his contract will become an albatross too by the end of it. Players that should be entering their primes with bad contracts (The Albatrios) are albatrosses. Players that were overpaid at the time (Linebrink) are albatrosses. Players that took below market value to stay with the team are not. Edit: Intriguing. Kenny initiated the Gonzalez talks. http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/news/artic...sp&c_id=cws Merkin takes a shot at SoxTalk.

From the People who brought you Demon's Souls... ...is something very different. http://ps3.ign.com/dor/objects/14350003/fr...10.html?show=hi For a $40 price tag, I don't think I'll turn this game down.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Mar 1, 2010 -> 12:04 AM) I didn't know Torres was still with the Sox. Is he gonna make the bullpen? Him or Santos probably.

Quick thing I noticed today: I hate when Cops are driving bad/illegally.

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Feb 28, 2010 -> 09:44 PM) If you got an older fat PS3, don't turn on your PS3. Some major s*** is going on causing it to not play any games. This is detrimental to my happiness.

QUOTE (bighurt4life @ Feb 27, 2010 -> 09:32 PM) Pretty good list but I think that they should reconsider 1417. Rafael Dolis, P, CHC and, 1418. Maurice Gartrell, OF, CHW. IMO they should at least swap these two guys. Gartrell doesn't have the ceiling but has a lower floor, but good list overall. You are greatness.

QUOTE (Cali @ Feb 28, 2010 -> 08:42 PM) The most awkward smile in the history of smiles.... http://www.twitvid.com/24303 I didn't know TCQ could smile.

For what its worth, I wouldn't trade Danks. And if I did, it'd be D1, D2, and Morel. That's it. That being said, I'd be all over anything like Hudson, Flowers, Morel, Viciedo, Torres, and Sergio Santos. Why Santos? Because he could step in as their closer if he really is throwing consistent strikes, which the Pads would probably like because they could unload Heath Bell for more prospects. The other package I think the Padres would want would be Hudson, Flowers, Morel, Mitchell. But if I can get away with Santos/Torres/Viciedo instead, I do in a heartbeat as I want to keep on to D2 (for D1's contract, and because I think he'd be a good 4th outfielder or starter if TCQ becomes a DH) and Mitchell.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Feb 28, 2010 -> 03:04 PM) It's sad that a marketing ploy such as this worked on me but yeah, that's why I caved and pre-ordered it last night. I love playing in the old time stadiums and the odds of me getting the platinum trophy are next to nothing. I figured I was gonna pay the exact same price to buy it later, so I might as well just get the extra stadiums ahead of time. I really wish they had included LA Coliseum, Shea, Comiskey, Old Yankee, and Tiger Stadium.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Feb 28, 2010 -> 03:00 PM) Jake Peavy tries selling Adrian Gonzales to Kenny Williams. Guess what Cowley, maybe there was some truth to it after all. I don't like how everywhere is trying to spin this story into something. It's not like Kenny looked at Adrian Gonzalez and said "I'll look into it" and Peavy comes along and says "Dude is a good hitter!" to which Kenny would say "Oh my god it's true!" Fortunately, if we wanted to negotiate with Gonzalez during the trade deal to avoid free agency, having Peavy (and Linebrink) could help him be more willing to come here since he'd be more comfortable.
