Yea, they show all sports including soccer, auto racing, and the various drafts if you don't want to watch it on t.v. With windows, I keep the wiziwig window open and then I keep the SportsHoopla window open. That way, I can watch the game live and comment on it over here on the SportsHoopla.

I am here most nights if you want to stop by from time-to-time. Nice meeting you and maybe we will meet again over here when the Phillies play Milwaukee.

JUST FOUL!! WHEW!!

no jvett. I do primarily wiziwig t.v. I have heard about VIPBox. I have always liked wiziwig.

I just tried one of the wiziwig t.v. links and it works. I keep getting malicious bug warnings though with an option to exclude. It's good to have an another choice if VIPBox can't be accessed and the game is blacked for some reason..

That makes sense dyhard about not focusing on the runner as a pitcher. It's a mixed bag in my opinion. If you have people who can hold the runner honest, I say take advantage of the strategy. But when you have a guy like Rupp who has a rocket arm, it is pretty much a moot point and the pitcher throwing over there is sort of useless.

people have always told me I'd be a great coach. but all the knowledge and everything I have, I never apply it to when I play. same thing with relationship advice or friendship advice or anything like that. have plenty knowledge, just rarely if ever apply it in my own life. but with pitching, I always had to remember what the batter did last time, what I did last time and everything I need to do to get to the batter this time.

need some power from Reynolds here though, can't have a strikeout or ground ball. and there's that power, but that was foul, good call. would be super tough being an umpire. had to slow-mo it down real bad to even see it went foul from my view

Hamels served up an almost HR ball.

Jvett, when you click on any of the streams, you'll get a host of pop-ups on wiziwig telling you that you need to download a certain vid player software or whatever. Look for the tiny little "x" and then click on those and they usually disappear and the game stream will eventually arrive. Avoid clicking on those request popups. Many of them have virsues attached.

 

[Retroram52]

That was some power by Reynolds dyhard.

 

[Retroram52]

You will also get those malicious bugs notices as well. Just click the little x somewhere in the notice box and ignore them.

 

[Retroram52]

Yea don't screw this up Hamels.

 

[Retroram52]

Bob McClure should get the young stud bullpen involved. Hamels is fading.

 

[Retroram52]

Come on Hamels get this out.

 

[Retroram52]

Got him on the change-up. 7Ks for Hamels. Hamels is done. Giles is in. Ah hell, don't bring in Gwynn!!!

Got it. Thanks.

 

[jvett77]

That was scary, Giles.

 

[Retroram52]

That WAS scary but Giles got him.

 

[Retroram52]

One other thing jvett. Once you choose a particular stream (and the choices are based on your computer's capability and whether you want 175kps or higher to give you a better picture), you'll get a host of popups and the central screen that has a commerical going on and a count down by seconds. You can't remove the commerical until about 5 seconds are left and a little x will apear. You can click off on the commercial and go to the live feed when that little x appears and not before. So you have to watch some damn commercial. Its annoying but a small price to pay for a free broadcast. I'm now done on the wiziwig tutorial.

We are hanging in there and we may just get a win tonight.

 

[Retroram52]

Rupp was ofer tonight. He needs to get back to hitting.
