McGwire and Sosa?
-
I think its legitimate. I'm guessing what happened is that SDS was going to make that reveal anyway and comedy central aired the commercial earlier than they were supposed to. Anyone is in their right to be skeptical but this looks legit enough to be real. This is awesome, and opens up possibilities some(not me) didn't think were realistic
It's no different than say, a Marvel Trailer leaking early or the entire final 2 seasons of GOT leaking early.

This would be sweet if true. Can only imagine the quirks they would have Hahahah.
fly me to the mooooooooon (after a roid shot)

It aired on comedy central? SNL used to make their own commercials back in the 80s and 90s. I'm gonna wait for SDS to say something......
Edit: though Tips did say in the dev tourney that something big was maybe coming this weekend.... Dunno could go either way
-
If this is true, are they increasing the limit on Power from 125 to 150?
-
Only if Victor Conte is your team captain.

Showzone posted the commercial.

So, like that infamous original Resident Evil question: 'Where's Barry?'
-
This seems like its legit
Also I don't think this happen by mistake, this year's game had had a slow burn of reveals and info that hype has been tampered so dropping a commercial randomly that teases something like McGuire and Sosa with no explanation has generated a bit of a stir.
Maybe instead of looking at someone making a mistake let's consider this being intentional done

My belief too. Show a flash of Sosa/McGwire w/o explanation to let the community generate the hype.
It's not on Twitter though?

Last year a commercial with randy was removed because it showed him. Funny how it was just one person who saw this commercial, then all the sudden it’s all over twitter and reditt. If it happens cool, but I think it’s a troll job
-
I still have doubts but if it is true then McGwire coming in as Pujols goes out will be a nice replacement for Cardinal Fans, plus they can give him an A's version to help out the flashbacks for that team.
I still want Ted Simmons as a Cardinals catcher though to replace Molina.

I’m pumped of this is true, and it looks like it is. Opens the door for Bonds, Clemens, etc. I’ve always wanted a Caminiti card, maybe we get it in the future.

Won't open the door for Bonds,him not being in games is his doing, the others though....

I'm thinking "Accidental text on purpose" like the "Curb Your Enthusiasm" episode...

Yeah, I am seeing a lot of comments from people expecting this news to open the door for him to now come into the game as well, but don't think most understand that the situation between Bonds and MLB is way more complicated beyond steroids.

His godfather is already in the game. I’m sure Bonds can also appreciate the addition of Negro League storylines and legends as a way to educate younger fans. Things like that might go a long way to gaining his blessing.

No. there was an absolute war between him and the players association after the 73 hrs, not sure but I think it was about the batting titles he won it in 02 with 403 ABs and in 04 with 373 ABs cause pitchers didn't want to pitch to him and with the absurd amount of walks he had over 600 PAs each year, pissed off the players and I believe they filed a grievance with the league and tried to disqualify him for the batting titles, after that he removed himself from the players association and the games.his track record with the media wasn't any better.

2 decades ago. A lot can change over time. Germany and Japan are US allies.

If I had to speculate their best versions (99s), Sosa probably gets an Awards card for his MVP season in 1998 and McGwire probably will be a Milestone card for hitting 72.
