I finished my series against the Astros and Nationals. Think I only had one game fuck up so far.

Next is the Marlins and Dodgers. Will probably have at least 3-4 losses from those games.

If you like the outdoors, it's pretty much the perfect place to live. Too dry for bugs, 300 days of sunshine a year, hiking trails and mountains out the wazoo, lots of natural beauty, and skiing. Can't forget that skiing. I started last year and hit it again hard this year. Absolutely love skiing.

I've been to Colorado to visit my cousins. Really love it there. First time I went was when I was 8 and that's literally what we did, try to find Bigfoot. Lol. I've only been skiing at Lake Tahoe.

How does stamina for pitchers work when playing games out of order? Like a played a game against Rob, using my day 1 starter. Will he be able to pitch my next game if its against another opponent from a different series.

Dmncnby, fmt told me to let you know he will be back on Saturday

Also I now have had the joy of leaving fmt an actual voicemail saying "hey fmt you pocket dialed me!"



Which means we actually probably won't advance week 1 for another week!

Did you PM them?

Don't worry, things will pickup. Just bad timing starting with others having to go out of town, but those guys are usually good with pace, you just need to be insistent contacting them because this is just one of 50000 other games they play but they'll play

Lol I love playing against you Rob, we always have some great games! Yeah man, your pitching went into 6th gear every time I needed to score a run! FUCK Byrd. Second time he scores a Homer on me :(

It's cool man, I understand :) whenever it is that you want to play remember I'm a message away!:D

Fuck I won't be available tomorrow. I have work and then I'm going to visit my sister. I'll be available Sunday morning, but no later than 5:30pm Eastern.

Sunday morning should be good for me.. I'm taking a 4pm ET flight so I'll need to be done absolute latest by 2:30... I wish remote play worked good enough for this league but not a chance it would be hell.

Alright cool. It maybe the worst game I'll ever play depending on how fucked up I am. Lol.

Dude, it looked like it hit him on the head when it first happened. I couldn't stop laughing. I thought something was wrong on your end and that's why it had hit him. Lol.

He hit a pinch hit walkoff

Got my Joe Carter, such BS that he is only rated 85.......his clutch should be 150

I'm close to having all the jays but I'm delaying that

Main reason is you don't need any of the golds to complete the collection and if I get any blue jay golds they're all getting sold
And lol joe carter would be silver card

Yeah, I really lucked out that game since you were dominating from the first pitch. After going down by four in the first inning, I figured I was done. I was just happy to get two runs back in the eighth to make it respectable.

I'm finding I have way better luck hitting with the regular or contact swing than the power one. Hell, both my homeruns (including the pinch hit wall off) were with the X button. Does that check out with anyone else or was it blind luck?

I don't know how yall do zone hitting. My problem with zone hitting is i find it hard to place my bat in the areas right around the middle...because you have to react so fast my PCI always ends up too far where ever I wanted to actually put it

Yeah. I always end up moving it a bit to the point where I'll hit a groundball or pop it up. I've been switching between normal, contact, and power hitting and it's been working great. I always use contact when batting with a pitcher and I've gotten a few hits.

I've never hit as many hard-hit pop flys as I've been hitting in this version. So many giant moon shots to the shallow outfield.

I pretty much never power swing. I use the normal X swing a majority of the time, use Contact if I'm down in the count. Hit plenty of home runs with X swings, and even a few with O.
