most dont want to hear it, but this years installment of The Show is already looking tight as a tiger.

Im playing the Road to the Show as a Catcher as i type this. plays really well - calling the pitches, and such...

havent checked out the on-board Cards roster yet. mostly because i revamp the entire Farm system to reflect our prospects... and i dont have time or patience to deal with that today. so ill stick with the catcher i made - that got drafted by Tampa :? .

Toys R Us was/is running a B1G1 50% off deal. Buy BF:BC 2 and get either L4D2, Mass Effect 2, Army of Two or Dante's Inferno half off.

Well, guess what? Our computers totally [expletive] up today and I got both BF:BC 2 and Mass Effect 2 for 58 dollars. At the bottom of my receipt, it says I saved 66 dollars. They patched the system, but wow, Toys R Us lost a ton of money nationwide today.

You really need to alert us when [expletive] like this happens before they fix the problem.

I actually didn't find out until about 4:30 PM. When I heard, I darted out of the house like a mad man. Nobody caught it until it rang up when I bought them. It was patched nationwide about an hour after I got my games. I was going to tell everyone I knew but by the time I got home and everything, the deal was basically over.

There's no more fulfilling feeling than ripping your job out of 66 bucks.
