QUOTE(dasox24 @ Jul 22, 2006 -> 02:55 AM) Oh man, isn't that the truth? A bunch of my friends also own the game, so when we play, it's always rediculously intense. Especially when we play at my friend's house, who has an HD-projection screen TV (size of a wall) and an XBOX 360. It's, by far, the best gaming experience I've ever had. When my friend first bought the game we ended up playing a big tournament with some other friends. We all took an international team and just set up a tournament. It was the first time all of us played so none of us knew what we were really doing, so every game was basically 1-0 and wow it was really intense. Everyone just going nuts when someone scored. Oh ya, put the game on spanish when you have the option at the beginning, the announcing is so much more fun to listen to. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jul 22, 2006 -> 02:50 AM) Can you play in the world cup or is mainly premiere league seasons and is there any sort of franchise type mode? I haven't messed around with the franchise stuff yet but there is a franchise type mode you can do. They do have all the international teams but I'm not sure if you can do like an actual world cup type thing. You can make your own tournament though and put all the international teams in it and basically make your own world cup, that I know for sure.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jul 22, 2006 -> 02:45 AM) Is 06 pretty current or is it semi discounted now. I may have to pick that up. last soccer game I had was the Fifa 94 or something for Super NES (I played it about a month ago). I think it's pretty updated. I'm not a huge soccer guy, so I really don't know that much, but from what I know it's pretty up to date. The game is a ton of fun though, especially when you're playing against a friend. Very intense games.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Jul 22, 2006 -> 02:13 AM) Boooooooone! has been solid since his initial hiccupp. I'm sure he'll probably be a September callup... Maybe he can start. Definitely nice to see Boone bounce back though. I think because of his delivery, that he'll have good enough stuff to be a decent loogy in this league.

Greg, you'll be absolutely fine with a 2.9 and a 29. You'll get into UIC and Loyola I can guarantee that and you should be fine with Depaul too. My high school counselor was no help either.

QUOTE(dasox24 @ Jul 22, 2006 -> 02:02 AM) Woke up, got a haircut for first time in 3 months, got online, played soccer with some friends, played FIFA '06 with my new team, Liverpool, and dominated Man United. Pretty solid day since I didn't watch the Sox game... Seriously, how awesome is that game??? I'm obsessed.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Jul 22, 2006 -> 01:05 AM) It was all the mullets. And morons. People cheering during the Rangers rally in the 6th(or 7th I don't remember which) because the wave was going around the park. Unacceptable.

You will never see a worse crowd than tonight. Embarrasing is the only way I can describe it.

Woke up and played some fifa 06(best game ever), went back to bed, woke up and went to the sox game, now I'm back home and in a bad mood. The end.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 21, 2006 -> 01:45 PM) Ugh, I'm completely torn when it comes to Willis. I think he'll be pretty damn bad about 3 years from now but he probably would dominate the AL for the rest of this season, throwing elbows and knees at people. I would NEVER, NEVER trade McCarthy for Willis, that would be a huge mistake and I just can't see a deal getting done without including McCarthy. ^^^ Dontrelle would more than likely be fantastic the rest of the year but I think you give him one year in the al and he starts to get knocked around. I'm not sure why, but I've never been totally sold on Dontrelle and I'm still not. IMO Bmac will be better than Willis and I don't want Mac or BA going anywhere.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Jul 21, 2006 -> 12:22 AM) playing in Charlotte. 7 HRs at home. 1 on the road. True. He's definitely on a power surge though as of now, homers coming in bunches.

Really appreciated guys. Awesome work.

As frusterating as this team is right now, if anyone thinks the AL Central race is over, well then you guys are nuts.

Not at all. When you're playing the team that you're battling in the division with, you can show a little emotion late in a one run game.

QUOTE(Felix @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 01:45 PM) It was a strike. Balls and strikes are called where the ball went through the zone, not where it ended up. Thank you. None of us here knew that.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 01:42 PM) Actually, people have been pleasantly surprised with his defense this year. At least he has the ability to throw runners out on the bases. He gets horrible reads out there. You are right though, he has displayed a decent arm.

Rogers loves to dive out on the mound.

Easily Pablo's worst game of the year.

You know things are going bad on the bunting side of things when Pablo can't even get one down.

QUOTE(Maverick0984 @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 01:36 PM) oh noes, gameday says \"injury delay\" Rogers.

BA

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 20, 2006 -> 12:04 AM) "The ERA is a personal figure, personal number. You can have 5 dynamite games and then 5 horsecrap games and now that number is gonna look sqewed. What's more important? That sqewed number or that W number?" - Don Cooper, White Sox Pitching Coach Wow, just wow. To be honest, he's probably just trying to stick up for his staff. I think he realizes they're pitching like spiff.

QUOTE(CWSOX45 @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 10:24 PM) I'm sick of this spiff, So awesome.

QUOTE(Bonderman38 @ Jul 19, 2006 -> 09:23 PM) I don't think you can blame Ozzie for tonight. Javy had been absolutely dominating the Tigers all night, and it was only the 6th inning. It seems that Javy just implodes when he is in his big jams. Ozzie is to blame for something else tonight, not the pitching.
