Do any of you guys play Diamond Dynasty? The single player conquest mode is pretty fun. I've played something like 15 games and I've already got a pretty solid team. Mostly silvers and two golds.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 2, 2016 -> 10:55 PM) I haven't played baseball online in years and may never. ANY lag is death. It's still slightly laggy, but the hitting pitching is fairly lag free. Last year, I'll hit a ball in play and the other guy's fielder would be all over the place while in reality, he caught the ball and the inning's over. There's none of that this year in the 3 games I've played so far.

QUOTE (Tony @ Apr 2, 2016 -> 09:53 PM) The matchmaking is a joke for The Show. I have to go through 10 failed challenges before I can get matched with anyone. Online for The Show is surprisingly playable this year. There's almost no incentive to throw anything straight online, all fastballs get destroyed.

Who's the equivalent to Peyton Manning in baseball?

The menus are still slow as hell on MLB 16, especially for Diamond Dynasty. Fix your s*** SDS. I'm still playing the Division regularly, even after getting to level 30. I'm trying to get some more gold blueprints and cool weapons. Got the gold black market AK47 doing 100,000+ DPS right now. Goal is to get it to 120k so I can have a easier time playing the challenging daily missions.

QUOTE (Tony @ Mar 28, 2016 -> 10:19 PM) Servers just went online for the show. They have flashback cards to use in DD now, the Sox suck but still pretty cool. 2012 Rios that is a 92 2005 Buehrle that is a 91 The rest are weird, like a 2009 Beckham at 79 and a 2008 Gavin Floyd at 81. There is a 2000 Buehrle for 74, haha. The new legend they added for the Sox is old man Goosage, who is only an 83. No Big Frank. Ugh. I knew there was no Big Frank, but damn, SDS really didn't throw the Sox any bones with the legends and flash backs.

Swisher combined for -2.3 WAR the past two seasons. He was also hated when he was a player here. It'd make no sense to sign him.

QUOTE (Tony @ Mar 24, 2016 -> 09:26 PM) Sale 94 Q 81 Rodon 79 Danks 74 EJ 64 DRob 88 Albers 72 Jones 80 Jennings 69 Petricka 68 Putnam 72 Duke 74 Eaton 81 Melky 76 Jose 86 Frazier 84 Lawrie 78 LaRoche 69 Avi 74 Avila 75 Rollins 81 Like in real life, I couldn't hit a lick with LaRoche, I crush with Frazier early on. Melky still seems to hit everything, I was the same way with him in 15 Ugh Q is underrated again.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Mar 23, 2016 -> 08:06 AM) Cruz, doing his best to challenge trump for worst candidate. lol as if there are just neighborhoods of Muslims in the US waiting to radicalize themselves. They're a ticking time bomb!

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Mar 24, 2016 -> 03:14 PM) New FOX News poll out today. In hypothetical November matchups, Kasich beats Clinton 51-40, Cruz beats Clinton 47-44, Clinton beats Trump 49-38. All the Trump voters just handing the election right over to Hillary. Yeah, I'm not sure I believe that one.

Can we get a garbage Twins player from last season so he can tell Chris Sale how he was tipping his pitches against them last year?

QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 05:10 PM) Maybe Danks hated Drake so much that him leaving will cause him to return to '08 form. Hey I haven't heard Danks comment on this yet, maybe he was one of the guys who didn't like him!

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 04:07 PM) Danks with 5ks 0er 1h in 5 IP. Just when we thought he was due to get lit up.

I just lost one of my final 4. f***.

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 02:46 PM) It seems insane to me that KW might have done this without getting on the same page as Hahn and Ventura It's Kenny. He knows he's nearly untouchable to JR.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 02:39 PM) Seriously what kinda person are you take advantage of that. There no way in hell he should be making the Sox take care of the kid too. They're paying him millions to play baseball. The expense of having his kid around is miniscule compared to his contract.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxLifer @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 02:36 PM) So if Laroche was taking Drake with him on the road was he paying for the his tickets on flights and getting his own hotel room. Was Drake eating food from the locker room. I really hope Laroche was paying for that stuff cause if not the Sox did awful alot for his kid to be there all the time I guarantee you he didn't pay anything.

God I want to check so many things on this list.

Someone's lying here.

If only we didn't promise LaRoche he could bring his son into the clubhouse everyday. Then we could have spent his $12 million elsewhere last year AND had $13 million more to spend in the off-season this year. That signing looks worse than Adam Dunn's right now and it's not even about the production.

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 11:08 AM) Bob Nightengale ‏@BNightengale 34s34 seconds ago Player rep Adam Eaton said Adam LaRoche had clause in contract to allow son and players union now involved #whitesox Well this is a f***ing nightmare.

Wow f*** Adam LaRoche. Way to f*** over this whole team before we even play a single game.

QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 09:23 AM) I grabbed it last weekend. Probably have about 10 hours into it and i'm level 10ish. I like the missions (though don't do what I did and waste and hour or two trying to solo a level 8 recommended mission at level 6...), but I agreed with a lot of the IGN review....it's not exactly an exciting environment. There's not enough random stuff that happens when running from place to place. And I can see how grinding for another 20 hours to get to level 30 is going to become a little boring since the AI is very repetitive. Still, the missions are fun so far, the customization on weapons is fun. I like building up the various wings in the base. I just wish there was more random AI interference in the non-dark zone areas. I haven't gone to the dark zone yet. Are you supposed to if you're low level? Or will you just get picked off immediately? There's a game rank and a DZ rank. You'll get put into DZ1 if you're low level in the game. If you're higher level, you skip the lower level zones.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 02:17 AM) Holy s***, lvl 26?? How many hours do you have in? I probably free roam more than most people, but at like 14 hours in I am on level 12, and that's because I leveled up twice tonight doing 1 mission w/ random guys. Like 20 hours. I've played the missions with others, so I more or less blow by them.

QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Mar 18, 2016 -> 12:25 AM) Ok, I REALLY need people to team up with in The Division. My buddy has played like 2 hours in the 10 days he has had the game, and the Dark Zone is impossible alone. I haven't tried the DZ yet, but I'm level 26 in the game.
