LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world he’d rather have. The problem is, Dwyane’s not a woman.

I can play tonight.I'm not free at all Saturday,Sunday I should be free too.

I'm down for 1 or 2 games after 10 pm eastern tonight.

Either send me a pm here when you want to play after 10 or I just send me a message on the PS3 cause I'll be on then.

Whoever has the Phillies needs to post in this thread. I am very busy this weekend and will have a narrow window of opportunity for playing games.

Mig has the Phillies and he almost never posts here.

You would have better luck contacting him on aim or on the PS3 itself,he or his roommate has it on 24/7.Mig was playing show last night.

hahah, oh well that 89 mph heater your guy was serving up wasn't gonna cut it, i promise , esp against AJ Burnett :lol

EDIT: fucking hell, why do they update the rosters so often. I'm so screwed, without Vernon Wells in the lineup for 6 weeks.

GG,but I really cant stand the lag im getting.I don't think you are getting on your side,but I'm not sure.You having any issues with it?

Some of your hits I didn't even see come off the bat :\ The ball would just appear in the outfield.

*sigh*

Oh well,Ill be free tonight to finish the series.

yeah there is a little lag, sometimes i just see the pitch fouled off or whatever without seeing it off the bat.. not the smoothest of games, but most of the time it wasn't bad.. but with 95mph heat, i can see how you'd be screwed.. Then again you did get like 11 hits, just none of them went out for HRs or hit gaps like mine did. I'll be back in a few hours. You'll be facing my one <90 mph starter so you should be ok.

Yeah I agree.

I think I will amend one of my rules. If a person doesn't post in this thread at all the whole 5 days and doesn't respond to any challenges the opponent is getting all 3 wins.

GG's Dez,except I don't enjoy playing against you cause of the lag.

It has nothing to do with you,I just cant pitch with it/field that well and when I have slow ass pitchers its easy to sit on any fastball/curve ball that hangs and hit a hr out.I cant even spot my pitches well,I end up throwing beautiful pitches right over the heart of the plate.

I cant even recall the last time I gave up 11 runs,even with shitty pitchers.I just get this shitty lag on my side,im sure its my connection or something,it's just really annoying.

Greg Zaun 5 for 5....Former Stro rapes me,I feel like shit now :lol

yeah ggs..there's lag on both ends though, but i know the feeling..whatever, blame scea. Though i find it hard to believe that you can hold good hitters at bay with that Houston staff aside from Roy-O.

My past stats don't lie though,I have held plenty great batters down with my shit pitchers this season... till I played the Jays with lag.I was 20-3 till I played against you using my shit pitchers.

I'm not saying you didn't have lag either.It's just maybe its worse on my side cause of my connection which hasn't been great *which is why I didn't blame scea* or just harder for me cause I am pitching with guys that top out at like 85 on fastballs :(

When I pitch with these bums I spot my pitches much better without the lag and when I cant spot I end up throwing a ton of balls and pitches that seem to be right down the middle or in your hot spot.


All in all I played like shit anyway and you played better.

Left a message for Scar on Monday. I believe he is out of town on vacation. Hopefully, I will hear back from him today.

Haven't been able to contact Core and it looks like I have about a 90% chance that I will have to do OT tonight.

EDIT: I do have OT tonight and will get home at 10PST at the earliest so there is no way I can get any games in.

Sorry Ramirez...been away...let me know when you want to play if it's not too late. I'll be on from 815 to about 915 tonight...if you can fit it in...if not tomorrow...otherwise...if it's too late...just sim my game and take the win. Work has been crazy. I am sorry.

There is a definite problem on my end somewhere. Pretty much the last like, 7 games I've played, have all had lag somehwere, with no other computers downloading, or even powered on a few occasions.

Good games denog, I think all 3 games ended up with me being 1 swing away from tying/winning the game. and I choked :(

What did you have, like 12 HRs?

I know I went back-to-back-to-back in the second game. I did hit an obscene amount of dingers in our series. Very much unlike me.

The lag on my end was mild. It did throw off some pitches and a few swings, but by far not the worst lag I have experienced.
