Many questions concerning this game
 

OK I know I aint going to get no refund I dont care I think its a good game and worth the money anyway. I dont need no trouble with my credit card and I resent you people looking into my past problems with this game. I dont have the old game anyway because that was like 3 computers ago. I am willing to swallow my pride and give you people a second chance to answer my questions. I figured out how to resume a game in progress no thanks to any of you but I do have many more questions about this game. If you people are so self rightouse and smart and helpful and in love with this game then I dont see why you cant answer my many questions about this game. First I want to say my father was friends with a guy who played professional baseball so I actually knew a man who played professional baseball for two years I dont any of you ever got that close to a real baseball player. So my first question is is he in this game? He played class D in 1951 for the reds and class D in 1952 for the yankees. Would he be in the minor leagues in this game or are the minor leagues made up of fantasy players? That is my first question to you lets see if any of you genises can answer that, thanks...:laugh:

I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night! Having confirmed my genis size the answer is no.:)

You forgot to say the magic word.

:laugh:


OP is too funny! Good one.

i actually got close to a baseball player once, but now the judge said i have to stay at least 500m away

What's the over/under on this thread's closing?

I got close to a real MLB player once. Oh wait! That's right! Silly me :rolleyes:. He was my 2nd cousin. Does that count? :confused: :)

I hope the OP sticks around and learns to love the game. We do poke fun at people but if you take a deep breath and get into this game you may find it amazing. Your post inspired me so I'm going to poke some more fun at you. I hope it will make you laugh instead of getting mad. Don't take this seriously. Some of us do feel your pain.:):p;)

depends what you were doing with your 2nd cousin.

Well, there were 2 factors:

1. I was very young back then
2. He had been managing in the minors then had to retire due to being diagnosed with cancer :(

Sadly, I never really got the chance to sit and talk baseball with him. He succumbed to cancer on the evening of September 24, 1977 at the age of 53. :crying:

Ya can't fix stupid and there is no vaccine for dumb***.

Big deal. I went to high school with Rusty Greer who played outfield for the Texas Rangers for over a decade. And he IS in the game! Now go read a dictionary.

Reading your post reminded me that I went to high school with Brian Boehringer who pitched for the Yankees, Padres and Pirates over his ML career.

Would help if we had a name... or you could also just, you know, search for him in the database.

I like him. I chose to ignore this guy this time around since many of us answered him correctly. As far as which ballplayers I know. 3 played for the White Sox, one of them is my father-in-law. Another I grew up with, played at Stanford and was drafted by Colorado in the 2nd rd of the 1999 draft.

If he did not play MLB he is not in any database the game uses. default, Gambo or spritze.

Minor league players who never made it to the big leagues are not in the database, even if they played with Gino Minutelli.

this guy was my boss many moons ago Thomas Carlson Minor League Statistics & History - Baseball-Reference.com

and I went to school with a guy named Yogi, though he played basketball

You were 2d cousins with Sherm Lollar?

Yes, you guessed right! :D One the best catchers if not the best catcher in Chicago White Sox franchise history. I wish the White Sox would retire Sherman's number 10. That would be so cool. :woohoo:

Seriously, Yogi Stewart? He got one of the all time best/worst contracts for not playing. Six years $24 million for playing 6-10 minutes in half the games. Did he have a bad stutter?
