Good Vibes

First off...great job by the Packers. They look like they will be holding their rightful coaches trophy in a couple weeks if they play to the same level they have been. Second is this quote you made me... "You will certainly approve of the back-end software Lance ..." Originally posted by Greg Ambro...

Deleting an honest opinion = absolute cowardice.



I am very disappointed that happened.



This reflects directly on the TMNT or whomever!

This is a perfect example of the message boards being relied upon for any and all error reporting vs. pro actively not having such a reliance on the MB. All these errors go unchecked otherwise.

Unbelievable. Tom has locked FOUR threads in the same amount of days. Pretty pathetic.

How Do You Read Boxscores Today?

What shows up when you hit "Live Scoring" has indeed improved. If given a chance to add more improvements, I'd simply put the AVG and ERA/WHIP on the farthest right, but it is much better defaulting to daily rather than yearly.

As a long time member of our armed forces as well as an air traffic controller, in both sases, the result of incompetence = death...and I'd guess his tolerance of it has grown quite low.
