I'm a Yankee fan and am scared of the Sox this year. Schilling is outright awesome and Wakefield always manages to own us. It's going to be a good series, but I have my doubts about the Yanks. They have no pitching what so ever, right now, and the Bosox have some really explosive hitters.

This is going to be an awesome series. I hate the Yankees, they always find some irritating way to win. And I already know FOX is going to over-dramatize the Rivera situation (don't get me wrong, it was horrible what happened, but FOX shouldn't make people dying a side-story to a baseball game).

In the words of Curt Schilling, I hope Boston "shuts up" those damn Yankees.

1) Fox is going to, most likely, focus on the spat last year between Pedro and Zimmer

2) Even if they do lose, one playoff loss is going to "shut up" the yanks. Not after how many years of smacking around the sox.

i just want you all to be aware of how much of a yankees suck up tim mccarver is. its amazing how he extolls the greatness of the yankees and mentions the red soxs as an afterthought. just pay attention i am sure he will not let me down during this series as he didn't last year. i swear that dude is on the yankee payroll.

go red sox!!

Why would they focus on Pedro vs. Zimmer? Zimmer isn't even THERE anymore, let alone they beat that horse to death during last year's ALCS. If anything, they will look at A-Rod vs. Varitek, but I still think they will make sure to pound in the Rivera thing pretty hard. They did it tonight in the Braves/Astros game with Ken Caminiti. It probably doesn't bother too many other people or they don't even notice, but it bothers me. It's like they don't know how to discern real life from sports. Just my opinion.

As for the other statement...oh well. In the immortal words of Chris Tucker AKA Smokey "Why you gotta bring up ol' ****?"

sox in 6.

on another note: anyone see the pregame production? they are saying the red sox are the rebels and the yankees the empire but they have the bats/lightsaber colors backwards. red sox are sporting red ones and the yankees blue ones. i know its cuz of team colors but i found it amusing.

I love how people seem to think the Yankees are the bad team in this series because of how much they spend. Boston isn't exactly a small market team there either. They aren't rebels. They are just like the Yankees only with less wins.

    • Payday 2 engine upgrade adds 64-bit and DX11 support, drastically shrinks install size

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Payday 2 engine upgrade adds 64-bit and DX11 support, drastically shrinks install size by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Payday 2, the most popular entry in the heisting game franchise, is getting a surprising update after all these years. This is slated to be a complete engine upgrade that will enhance almost every aspect of the 13-year-old title, targeting performance, loading times, file size, rendering backend, and more. Developer Sidetrack Games is planning a beta to test out the new version ahead of the full public launch. The development team today revealed that the long-awaited upgrade to the 64-bit architecture is happening with this Diesel 3.0 engine update. By letting the game use more ram than 4GB, it is said to improve stability and compatibility on most hardware. It should also help modders in the long term with implementing larger changes too. "While many of the changes are made on the backend and not everything will be visible to you guys because it is a massive rewrite of the entire codebase, there will be a lot of things that you can look forward to," Sidetrack explained. Payday 2 will also hop over from DirectX 9 to 11. Instead of visual improvements, this is slated to reduce the amount of VRAM used by the title, letting more lower-end hardware access the title and run it better. Since these changes would require a complete redownload of the game anyway, Sidetrack says it has revamped "the game's packaging and bundling system." This should reduce the installation size from 86GB to 32GB. "So, now it's time to finally move the game to your SSDs," added the studio. The Payday 2 Diesel Engine 3.0 update is entering open beta on June 30 for Steam users. No console release plans were announced today. Sidetrack Games says it has been working on this complete rewrite of the codebase for the last nine months. While these changes should break most mods, the studio encouraged modders to use the beta period to repair their creations with support from the development team.
