DARKNESS FALLS

FOR BOTH THE TEXAS RANGERS AND MY PLAYSTATION3.

GOING TO FAST-FORWARD MODE EARLY, THE RANGERS FINISHED 2011 WITH A DISMAL RECORD. JUST AS I TYPED IN THE LEAGUE AND TEAM STATS, AND WAS READY TO START THE PLAYOFFS, MY PS3 WENT DEAD.

AGAIN.

A CALL TO SONY'S HELPLINE PROVED FRUITLESS.

AGAIN.

THESE SO-CALLED "TECHNICIANS" AREN'T TRAINED TO HELP YOU - THEY'RE TRAINED TO SELL YOU ON SENDING IN YOUR UNIT - OR GETTING HELP ONLINE - ALL FOR THE BARGAIN PRICE OF $180.

BULLSHIT, AGAIN.

AS PLAYSTATIONS ARE NO LONGER BEING CONSTRUCTED, THESE "NECESSARY REPAIRS" ARE SIMPLY A WAY FOR SONY TO KEEP A REVENUE STREAM FLOWING.

DON'T BUY IT. THESE BEHEMOTHS ARE TURNING TO PIECES OF SHIT - AND SONY KNOWS IT.

DON'T FALL FOR IT.

ROUGH START

TEXAS BEGAN ITS 2010-SEASON TWO PRESEASON CAMPAIGN WITH FIVE STRAIGHT LOSSES FROM MAY 4 TO 8.

THE RANGERS OPENED THEIR SEASON BY DROPPING THREE STRAIGHT TO KANSAS CITY, 4-3, 6-2 AND 6-2, STRIKING OUT 26 TIMES AMD COLLECTING JUST 28 HITS.

THOSE LOSSES WERE FOLLOWED BY DEFEATS TO CLEVELAND (5-4) AND THE ANGELS (14-5).

RUMOR HAS THE TEAM TRYING TO PACKAGE THREE PLAYERS TO THE REDS TO ACQUIRE HANLEY RAMIREZ, A STANDOUT IN SEASON ONE.

ICHIRO AND SKIP SCHUMAKER ARE LIKELY LEADOFF CANDIDATES, BUT EITHER ONE IS COMFORTABLE LOWER IN THE ORDER.

NEVILLE CRUISE, THE 18-YEAR-OLD PHENOM, IS WORKING ON MAKING THIRD BASE HIS FOR THE SEASON. FELLOW YOUNGSTER LORENZO ORTIZ, WHO POSTED BIG NUMBERS IN PITTSBURGH FOR SEASON ONE, BACKS UP CRUISE AND COULD PRESSURE ROBINSON CANO FOR PLAYING TIME AT SECOND.

FIRST BASE REMAINS JUSTIN MORNEAU'S, BUT DERREK WILEY SHOULD SEE TIME THERE AND AT DESIGNATED HITTER.

RYAN BRAUN (LEFT FIELD), JAY BRUCE (CENTER FIELD) AND ICHIRO (RIGHT FIELD) SEEM LIKE LOCKS, WHILE A LARGE MIX OF CANDIDATES TO BACK THEM UP ARE IN CAMP.

YUNEL ESCOBAR STARTS AT SHORTSTOP, BACKED UP BY IAN DIAMOND.

ALL PHASES OF THE PITCHING STAFF ARE HUGE QUESTION MARKS.
