Great show this week. Although I have to disagree on one point. I think that gameplay wise MVP baseball is the better game this year. Although the Most Improved award goes to MLB. Of course without a doubt they are both incredible baseball games and I own them both. I think the reason I like them both so much and wasnt disappointed is that I didnt play MVP 04, so I couldnt have been disappointed that it was the same as last year. Although the 5 inning online is the single worst thing ever, its like Madden reducing its games to 4 mins to get rid of disconnects. Which to me wasnt that big of a deal since Madden forces you to play against the CPU if you opponent bails. Since MVP ends the game wherever it is I think we need a 9 inning system. For ranked games I play MLB more right now, but I play in leagues in both and I am really excited for them to get started as I am a huge baseball fan and I have two great games to play this year.

P.S. Have you guys ever thought about chapterizing your show. I dont listen very often and that is simply because I dont like jumping around to hear the parts I dont want to. Right now Its like a magazine without a Table of Contents, and where you can only turn the page in multiples of three (damn winamp)

I would listen a lot more if it were like this!

I've wondered about doing sections of the show, more like a typical news show, more than once. It'd be tough, though, considering our style: We can get started on GTA, sidetrack outselves almost immediatly, and 20 minutes later end up talking about Barbie Horse Adventures. That's where I think a lot of our humor and appeal comes from.

Some kind of organization could help, though, especially in cases of people who come in mid-show. I'll keep the idea around, and thanks for the comment.

I thought I would add that I almost never get to listen Live. I am involed at church around that time so I usually have to listen to the replays. I know that its not a typical news show so what about this: maybe instead of true chapter you could split into smaller 20 min segments..and do a short summary of what you talked about in that amount of time.

MLB 2k5 is way way way way way way way way better than MVP. MLB 2k5 is an amazing baseball game. The best I've ever played, and is seriously one of the best sports games out there...AND ITS EVEN CHEAPER THAN MVP...

2k5=19.99

and

MVP=29.99

AAANNNNNDDDD its an EA game and I'd rather kill an immediate family member than buy another EA sports game.

^^^^^^^^ and that last sentence is why your opinion doesnt count.

Seriously though we all know that EA has lost alot of its creativness (i know thats not a word) but some of their sports games are still great. I play whatever game I think is the best....I don't not try a game because its made by a certain company. (oooo double negative)

Sports games I play: (because they are the best)
Madden (NFL 2K5 is great but bad D-back play drove me insane online)
ESPN NHL
ESPN College Hoops
Fifa Soccer (actually Winning Eleven is the best but there is no online play)
MVP 2005
MLB 2K5
