Talking THE BIG ANNOUNCEMENT...

... won't be announced now

OK, some hints...
- It's not that some big company bought us
- We do not get a MLBPA license (points instead of dollars suck big-time)
- I will not retire
- It's not directly OOTP related, but baseball and sports-gaming in general

...Stuart Scott is running a report for ESPN on baseball sims that at their best accurately represent baseball and its many boundaries called "BooYah!: It's in the game"

sadly EA Sports purchased the rights to title the news program, thanks to all those that continue purchasing Triple Play Baseball.
