This one is on Yes thank god. Couldn't imagine listening to Dwayne Staats and crew. :lol: The Rays always give the Yankees a fight and the Yanks always lay an egg in Florida. I'm not getting my hopes up to high.
 
Jake Odorizzi vs. CC. Sabathia, Should be a fun one. :lol:

Lineups to follow...
 
I'm gonna' miss this one.... got to be in 4 places at once all day, still scratching my head how...
 
Torreyes -2B
Sanchez -C
Holliday -DH
Carter -1B
Judge -RF
Torres -SS
Frazier -LF
Andujar -3B
Fowler -CF
Sabathia -P
 
Oh yes. The 3 automatic outs[Gardner, Ellsbury & Headley] need a day off.
The kids show much more energy and they produce.
Sit and watch, you laggards!!!

Now let's see which CC shows up, the fat one or the skinny one. :biglaugh:
 
^^^^^Just let's hope the "good" one shows up! [Somehow I cannot see CC as skinny for a long period].
 
... I realize it's spring training and that he's barely 20 years old and the hitters might not be facing top tier pitching, but if Torres continues to impress through the rest of SY, in all fairness, how could the Yanx start the season without him being on the ML roster?

Seems like Holiday has been involved in some good hit, score situations this spring. Heard Girardi say that Holiday should provide excellent leadership to the younger players. Always have liked him, the man is a winner, look forward to his success.
 
Nice job Diaz, one error, three runners advance one scores. Let those rudipoos kick your ass.
 
Yankees come back in the 10th. Final Yankees 7 Rays 6. Btw guys my Fiancee got me an I Phone so now I will be able to still post here while in Guatemala. I just have to figure out how to use it. :lol:

...is it a "global" iphone?

...I love my Macbook Pro and would not trade it for anything and will never go back to a Windows based laptop...just my personal preference...I tried an iphone for couple of months but eventually sold the iphone and went back to my Samsung Galaxy... as far as smartphones go, I just much prefer the android format over ios...plus, I didn't care for the iphone keyboard at all.

...just my 2 cents.

Ron honestly I have no idea, I'm not good with electronics all I know is it is a Samsung and my Fiancee set everything up for me so it is easier for me to surf the Internet. I use my regular Computer because I have bad eyesight so this is going to a challenge for sure. :lol:
 
...a Samsung Iphone ?...lol, Lil, there's no such animal...doesn't really matter anyway, I know what you meant...as long as you can keep in touch.

Don't make my Head Spin Ron. I haven't even read the book yet. Honestly I really didn't want it because I have no idea how to use them but like you said as long as I can keep in touch that's all that matters. I will ask him tomorrow he is already in bed. :biglaugh:

...well, you could always wake him up..."rudely". :devilwink:
 
Lil, what Ron is asking you is (1) what version is your iPhone, a 6 or 7 series; and (2) what technology model #, there are models for GSM (europe, parts of asia), CDMA (north america) or combo GSM/CDMA which is also referred to as the global iphone. Which version you have also depends on the carrier, AT&T vs Verizon or Sprint. Some carriers in North America only get CDMA phones that don't work in other parts of the world.

If your phone is CDMA/GSM type you should be okay. However there are a couple of caveats, if the phone is "locked" or under contract, you may not be able to drop in another SIM card, and if so than likely only for data which it sounds to me your intended purpose. You can actually test this before you go, just buy a cheap prepaid data SIM card here and test out. Then when you arrive in Guatemala, buy a couple prepaid data SIM cards. If its not locked than you can just by a local SIM card at the airport when you arrive in Guatemala.

Now if that isn't enough....keep in mind that most of the world is still 3G, and therefore doesn't have 4G speeds. This means it could be wickedly slow.

Now alternatively, if you are staying somewhere that has good WiFi....than just ignore all that above telcom stuff and in settings put your phone in airplane mode first and then manually toggle WiFi back on. Its really good idea to leave bluetooth off when traveling. Apple folks used to think they were immune, but turns out most of the major hacks going on these days is via Apple products because their users were mostly security ignorant. Heck, even the CIA's Apple hacks got hacked....no honor among theives.

If you get stuck and need to figure out an answer while traveling, I highly recommend TripAdvisors, some really good folks there. Whenever in a new city, I try to find their sponsored walking tours, always a lot of fun to get a local perspective usually from an American expat.
 
Thanks for the info Tom. I'm pretty sure the provider is Verizon but like I said I don't have the patience for those things. My old Phone was hardly ever used. I will figure it out and probably only use it in Guatemala.
 
...^^^once you said that you were "not good with electronics" I saw no need to bore you with technical stuff.

If I had a Macbook Pro, I wouldn't trade it in either.

No need to worry Lil' some of us still use a squirrel cage and coat hangar held over our heads; never falling prey to something smarter than ourselves....:devilwink:
I for one never cared for I-Phones, with more intelligence than what I can possess.... (that's what I have a Son for, allow me to use cruise control, while he does all the work).... the old Nav/Sat phone of yore was enough for me.

Tote is right on the Apple Viruses, exclusive only to Mac's, Apple products, though I've long preferred Apple over any thing else. I'm not sure any entity is free or hasn't been attacked, yet Apple seems to of made some enemies which exclusively have targeted them, and their products. That doesn't mean I'd not buy Apple products.



I was brainwashed into believing at a young age, by my Uncle, an IBM exec, who told me IBM was American IT at it's best, and working to put men in space, and on the moon. Long before Bill Gates infringed on Apple, with his Windows, long before Windows, we used IBM P.C.'s and tied into a LANS which was on each person's desk, IBM's.... then some of us were allotted our own Laptops, (who required such) my first ever: a Powerbook 100...... greatest thing in the world back then...! As for I-Phones, meh- they burn me out... plus I'm too blind to see, let alone my fingers don't work well on the keypads,...
