"While tallying almost three hours worth of air travel Monday en route to Dallas on the club's charter flight, Braden made himself comfortable in the back of the plane, alongside fellow pitcher Brad Ziegler to take part in a friendly R.B.I. Baseball video game. "

Spectacular.
Turd should put Braden and Ziegler in the 2010 ROM and send them a copy...

I'll gladly pitch in for this.
I'd pay pal $5 towards that effort.
I'm already on it. I already have the address...so, with or without field dirt?
If people want to throw in the cash, I think I could dig up a donor cart...pretty sure it costs about $25 to get a repro done...
We could even put a picture of him on the cover...

I suggest you turn this picture into a Braden/A-Rod pic and use it as the cover.

And I'll definitely chip in.
So, me, repeat, Alec, and attezz makes $20. Need $5 more and a donor cart.
good idea for the cart, but wouldn't we assume they're playing a ROM on a laptop if they're playing video games in the back of a plane?
I thought the exact same thing, but then I realized it's a chartered plane, probably has a tv in it?
so you assume mlb players are toting around an original nes? doubtful.
Well, at this point it's equally likely/unlikely that they have knowledge of playing ROMS on their computer with USB controllers they purchased, vs. the plane for the team having an NES onboard...neither of them sound plausible...so I don't know...
Definitely an NES.
Do both.
Yeah, I was gonna include a letter, I could send the cart and a CD with the game on it...
I know that Ziggy posts frequently at Athleticsnation.com and I am sure that the folks who run the blog would be able to get us in direct contact with him. He also has a twitter account and answers the questions that fans post there often. I bet if we just asked him we could figure out how he was playing RBI with Dallas and hat they would prefer.
Then just ask him.
Let's do it.
Someone has to come up with an RBI version of Dallas pumping his fist after the perfect game for the cover art on the cart.
Anybody do that twitter shit?
I sent him a message. No response yet.
I'll chip in as well.
lot's of fanboy nerdery going on in this here thread.
which is cool, i guess.
