And as expected and guessed in the OneSeason Nation forums, the question for the IPO was how many hits did Ichiro get to set the record in 2004. The answer is 262. That’s a lot of slap liners over the 1st and 3rd basmen’s heads! As is customary on IPO days, the OneSeason Nation has added a new game to the OneSeason Nation Arcade, presumably for Sdogg to be number 1 in. Good Luck to everyone on your timestamps!

Report: Manny faces 50-game penalty
ESPN.com news services

Major League Baseball is expected to announce Thursday that Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Manny Ramirez has tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs and will be suspended for 50 games, The Los Angeles Times is reporting.

Ramirez’s test result and suspension are expected to be announced Thursday, The Times said.

Citing a source familiar with the matter, The Times reported Ramirez is expected to say the positive test results were a result of medication received from a doctor for a personal medical issue.

If his suspension begins Thursday, Ramirez would be eligible to return to the Dodgers’ lineup for their July 3 game against San Diego.

Triple-A outfielder Xavier Paul has been told by the Dodgers that he will be promoted later today, according to The Times.

In his first full season as a Dodger, Ramirez is batting .348 with six home runs and 20 RBIs. Los Angeles has bolted to a 21-8 record — best in the majors — and a 13-0 record at home that set the modern major league record for home winning streak to start a season.

This has resulted in a firesell of Manny Ramirez. Sucks for all the people out there who forgot they had buy orders out on Manny! Congratulations! Those shares are getting dumped to you! OSNTV News anchor “TheBrett” is calling for a Manny reverse split TONIGHT!

Straight from OneSeason about 3am, Wednesday Morning!

Goodbye Ghost Sell Orders

Moving forward, users will only be able to place sell
orders for an equal or lesser number of SOIs than those
held in their Sportfolio; this will eliminate repeat
("Ghost") orders.



The community was rabid in forcing OneSeason to alter
their development schedule, and make this change. Let's
just hope the community was right, and this was as
important as we thought! Thanks OneSeason for moving
this up, stopping what you were doing, and fixing this!

Due to the video file being corrupted upon upload, and the OSN-TV studios being locked up for the evening, OSNTV will be up tomorrow morning sometime. We apologize for the inconvience. Go watch Golden Girls Reruns or something to tide you over.

Season 2, anyone?

He made this goal right in front of Wayne Gretzky. This clip is a OneSeason favorite!

OSN News Correspondant Bengals725 is first on the scene with this report on the Ankiel situation. More info as we get it.

Rick Ankiel, Cardinals outfielder was taken off the field on a stretcher in the seventh inning of Monday’s game against the Phillies.  He was going after a fly ball in center, when he went head first into the wall bending his neck back viciously.  He layed on the warning track for a few minutes as Busch Stadium was shocked into silence.  After they took all precautionary measures he was carted off the field and did give a thumbs up to the fans.  Ankiel was a great story after his comeback from his pitching issues, and lets hope it doesn’t come to an end here.  We’ll keep you updated as more information is brought forth.

Thanks Bengals for the late breaking news update

UPDATE on the situation from OSN News Correspondant Bengals725

Ankiel has show responsiveness neurologically.

Bossman Junior is set to hit OneSeason next. He is the flashy and charismatic outfielder who helped the Rays in their bid for a World Series in 2008. Here is some random information about Mr. Upton. Courtesy of Wiki.

Melvin Emmanuel “B. J.” Upton (born August 21, 1984 in Norfolk, Virginia) is a Major League Baseball center fielder for the Tampa Bay Rays. Upton is a graduate of Greenbrier Christian Academy.

His nickname, B. J., is short for Bossman Junior. His brother, Justin Upton, plays for the Arizona Diamondbacks.

We feel he will be one of many low Market Cap guys hitting the pipeline in the coming weeks. What are your thoughts on where he ends up after his first day on the market?

OSN, since the beginning, has been right at the front of the 3rd party games talk, and since that time of the realization of what 3rd party games mean to OneSeason, we have been rockin and rolling, playing our own games, and keeping you updated on the latest and greatest games being developed out there! OneSeasonPro launched their games on May 1, and OSN has recently learned that there is another new site in the works!

www.soiroto.com is currently being developed and has asked OSN if we could get some folks to beta test these games as they are developed! The site owner is looking for the OSN to analyze the crap out of the games and give him open and honest feedback! So..if you’d like to help beta test the games on this new site, send an email to support@soiroto.com for more information!
