I don't think 70 is that old, tbh. This one hurt bad.
I know a lot of you on here are Hockey people as well, and know what Barry meant to the sport.
He was great on ESPN and will be missed.
I was rooting for the LA Kings when he coached them to the finals, with Gretzky, back then.
I had no idea that he never coached an NHL game before. That's crazy!
RIP, legend.

Let's see....
Teasing people in the Vault pack contents not once, but twice.
Not juicing packs in SEPTEMBER!!!!!
Judge & Ohtani still sky high in SEPTEMBER.
Horrific pack luck for most all season.
Nope. Let's just accept Live series in ACHES packs. Just turn the other cheek, when packs are azz cheeks, right?
As for other game issues, this post isn't about those.
Go get your shine boxes and shine SDS's shoes 🤪

@TheGoaler_MLBTS I know this one. If the hitter has prior knowledge of what kind of pitch is coming getting hits becomes…. EASIER. Less impressive if you will. Not sure how this is complicated for you.

Didn't batters know Mariano's Cutter was coming, but still couldn't hit it? 🤪

How does one cheat to 2500 MLB hits in a frustratingly hard sport like baseball?
Jose is a hall of famer. Let the cheating scandal be left out of 2500 base hits.

I'll give SDS credit on this one. Vault pack with All Star Ted Williams as an option. Can't complain about that

I pulled him not long ago, but sold because I didn't think I'll finish All-Star!

Any chance we get a city scape Mike piazza card this week for 9/11? It would be cool to have a city scape piazza with the towers behind him

Great thinking! Hopefully.

Did anyone check the possible contents before opening?
I was so angry about the one in the CQ map. I thought we were guaranteed one of those high priced CHASE cards. Got a choice between LS Ketel and WBC Bo-gyeong Moon. Yippee!
This one gave me the difficult choice between LS Glasgow and John Don. I just opened without seeing who was teased again.
Fun times!

@Onix_Savage22_PSN Update on NHL- it’s awful. They somehow took about 9 steps backwards

It seems unfinished, but I have had fun so far. Did a little 'Pro Am' to level up my skater. The game feels slow, but we are using 79's-82's, with a couple of 84 overalls in HUT. Going from 98's & 99's to starting over is a bit rough! Animations are a bit jerky and some player faces are wrong. It's kind of funny!
I waited for a sale last season, and decided to do early-access this time, which has made us unpaid, unofficial game testers, until worldwide launch Friday.
It should get better as a patch is sorely needed. I just started vacation Monday, and played almost all day. Didn’t play this at all, which was weird. Maybe the lack of content??

I haven't noticed it. I won a Conquest game getting the last out on a pickoff 2 days ago. First time ever.

Also Jose Altuve 1 hit away from 2500 on a different milestone note!

They would probably make a trash can card for him.

You guys just can't move on from that Astros cheating stuff.....
Jose is a HOF'er. Put some respek on his name!

@TheJeweledLotus_PSN said:

I mean dude hof is not that hard, I think most people could do it if they put a little effort in. Problem is most people just want the shiny new thing, and having one challenge all year to obtain one card would not be bad. As I said, he has a 98 that’s amazing, you still have that! All-star showdowns are not even challenging for a lot of people

I agree.
If i could solve PCI placement, I'd play on it more. It's beyond frustrating to have not figured it out yet.

I miss last year's Beltran, since I'm so far away with this year's version.
SDS should ease up with some of these collection card prices. It's September, dangit!!!

This Conquest map plays like there are 100 mph winds blowing the ball back into play. 105 exit velos with 30ish launch angles and they're not even close to leaving vs crappy relievers. I don't know why some of the maps play like this...feels intentional. The rewards are solid though...got a Franklin Arias with a deluxe pack from Goal 3.

There are definitely sliders, and i don't mean the pitch, cranked in CQ. That and DQ are pretty much all i play, as i can't get into 9-inning games like I used to in past games. I might have gotten AS Buxton way earlier. Sometimes you score in bunches, other times it's 1-0 games!

I started here with '09. Pedroia on the cover, but Triple Play '97 was my first game.
I also had MLB '99 with 989 Sports, which became 'The Show' later, I think.

I've been doing the Shark map alot, it's a free 5k XP every time you complete it plus the premiere Pipeline pack

I did get 2 Aiva Arquettes, expected a 3rd, along with a Caminiti dupe recently, but they're sellable, at least.

you get the 5k everytime?

Yes.
Sorry I didn't respond earlier. NHL '27 early access had me trapped in HUT on ice all day!

Getting back to the original post, you'd think SDS would be a little jealous of Alec Bohm instead of Stott. Lucky dawg is dating Erin Dolan!

Senga a 99? Lol!
At least we get a 99 Benge. Should have a very decent arm rating!

I haven't gotten one Retro card all season, and i wanted the Indians to win that WS, so it doesn't matter. Sorry, Cubs fans.

Mine would not open on the app.
When @bearsfanincltnc_psn posted, I was able to open on the console.
