Dee-Nee Forums

The poll is pretty self-explanatory.  How often do we all play RBI?  Any form counts, whether its NES, a ROM or even a palm pilot.

If you answer any of the last three, I'm calling you out...

I put once a week, really less than that, especially April-October, November-March, I'll play the CPU, which I don't do the rest of the year, on average about once a week.

i wax that computer ass daily

I should clarify my "calling-out" statement.  If you have no one to play with or a problem like that, please clarify.

For the past 2 or so years I have been playing on my PC(shitty dial-up, so no online).  Mi esposa scored a cherry NES at a garage sale a couple of weeks ago.  My boy(2 3/4 yrsold) and I then took a trip to our nearest Vintage Stock(used games,CDs,movies,cards etc) and purchased their only copy of RBI. I then proceeded to kick his ass with Detroit(he was Boston). He has figured out how to pitch and swing, but cant field or run the bases. It was truly a beautiful moment between a father and his son.
Only 18 1/4 years before we can play death.

You bastard Bonny, my Dad used to wipe the floor with me in RBI back in the day, he would just lean back and laugh at me after the slaughter rule would kick in, I still havn't recovered.

At this time last year, I was good for at least 5 RBI games a day.  Unfortunately moving brought that to an end.  I haven't played since my wedding.  Hopefully when I get my new computer I'll be able to get in some online play.

I don't know how i classify this but i used to play daily. Then my nintendo hit the shitter. So now i dont' play. I guess i could go out and get a controller and play online. And my nintendo kicked the bucket as i was playing a game of zelda. I'll never get to play again. so sad.

TRoogs is a poser.

C'mon, I thought that was my funniest post ever.

Don't feel bad. You're not really unfunny, just a different kind  of funny. Like funny as in an old person slipping on ice and breaking their hip.

Or funny as in rdub beating a dog and having said dog run into oncoming traffic after said beating

even here, we can't stay on topic   :-\

"ShitPaw, did you come here to lecture us?  You're lectures are boring.  I hope you don't do that to people who you eat dinner with."

this guy is funny

he also may have soiled himself

It's possible that Louis Pasteur jokes may be lost on this audience.  Although he was a helluva goalie.

He isn't lost on this group, as many of us know who good ole' Louie is, having seen Seinfeld and all...

He can wipe out his whole checking account in one check.

crap. now we're even.

I'd say about 2-5 times a month, though more games than that.  The dee-nee house is now empty except for yours truly and that hurts the games.  We do need to play more though...

I'm dying to play some RBI right now but the fucking tv is broken and nothing works.  This is fucking bullshit.  :'(

I'm seriously going to have to recruit somebody from my new town to play RBI.  The fact that I've gone almost 3 months now is fucking sad.  Plus when I go back home, a lot of the major RBI players have moved too so I still can't get any games in.

I know marriage can be the end of a lot of things but dammit, RBI shouldn't be one of them.

Baines, one of these days I'm gonna make it out to Ohio to see my relatives and beat your ass in slurve and straight pitch.  Fear not, my dee nee brother.  You will one day play RBI again.

Whenever you do we'll definitely have a blast.  Hell, at this rate it very well may be the next time I play RBI.  Are you still possibly coming this winter?  

A lot of the guys we always played with are at school now so we've been talking about a big tourney when everybody's home in December or January.

My parents are going out the second week of November.  Looks like I won't be able to make it.  A friend is coming in for Thanksgiving and there's no way I can get all that time off work.

I'm hoping to take a trip back east after graduating in May. Just gotta convince my parents or grandparents to fork over the cash...ha ha ha.

Whenever you make the trip just let me know.  You've always got a place to party, play RBI, whatever.

I think you should put out an ad on craigs list.

I'm getting my new roommate to agree to play tonight...he seemed uninterested in the game until I explained that you could use it as a high-scoring drinking game, so now he is actually pumped to play :)

Bring em in with booze, works everytime...

so you really do have just the one tv?  ah to be a student again...  :-\

that's gotta doubly suck bc i'm sure you have to have kiddy shows on most of the time, for the lil one, of course.

If this is directed to me...Yeah, just one tv right now.  The one in the living room where everything is hooked up is out at the moment.  I'm not sure why.

And yes, the kid pretty much owns the one in my bedroom.  I despise Disney.  I've probably given those fuckers a years salary.

Oh yeah, I'm not broke because I'm a student.  I'm broke because I'm well, broke.

i'm following your advice for the world series mclane.

tv on mute, espn radio in the background.

God bless ESPN Radio.  I don't think i would be able to attend a school i live and hour away from if it weren't for the Herd and the Dan Patrick show during the drive.

Also fuck FOX postseason coverage.  Their only redeeming quality is the 5 seconds of music on the way to the commercial break.  They've played some pretty quality obscure shit I never would've thought I'd hear on a Fox Sports telecast.
