Tales of a MLB bat boy: part 2 - Operation Sports Forums

FIFA, or EA FC, has garnered a huge loyal fan base throughout the years. While many purchase the game solely for the offline component, most of the player base consists of FUT players who play the game religiously. However, with FUT containing so many meticulous aspects, keeping up with it has become a full-time job.

From the extremely volatile market to the daily launched SBCs, there’s so much you need to keep track of; otherwise, you’ll become uncompetitive. This can make the game feel like a grind, rather than a playful experience. If you’re in the same boat, and your fingers are tired of scrolling through Twitter, Reddit, and FUTbin just to keep up, I’ve built something for you.

Say hello to FUTCast from Operation Sports, your one-stop shop for all things Ultimate Team. This is something that I really wished existed, so when no one else was creating it, I decided to do it myself. FUTCast is an all-in-one Ultimate resource built for the busy sports gamer. It’s something that makes sure you don’t have a million tabs open just to find the cheapest solution to the POTM SBC.

Instead, in less time than a division rivals match, it aims to deliver all the necessary information that a FUT player needs, right to their inbox. The goal is simple: I want to make EA FC Ultimate Team enjoyable again, just like it used to be. So, every Monday/Wednesday/Friday, expect a top-to-bottom recap of what’s happening in FUT, which will keep you competitive without burning your neurons.

The Newsletter will cover all bases, and here’s what you can expect to see in each issue:
- Market trends & price shifts — quick breakdowns of rising/falling cards and why.
- Promo and pack updates — what’s live, what’s coming, what’s worth your coins.
- SBC solutions & Evolutions — efficient completions, best upgrades, value advice.
- Buy/Sell/Hold calls — actionable weekly investment tips.
Now, you might be thinking, Why should you listen to me? Well, you don’t have to. But trust me, if someone handed me the sauce to unlock my Ultimate Team potential back when I was grinding FIFA 14, I would’ve happily accepted it, because I was spending 12+ hours on that game.

The entire point of FUTCast is to do all the digging for you, so you can spend your precious time playing the game instead of wasting it on gathering information. At Operation Sports, we’ve been doing this for a long time, and our entire community is built around that trust. The best part about it is that all of this will be curated by a die-hard FC player himself, and I don’t intend to let you down at all.

If you’re like me, and you’ve been searching long for something that fulfills all your FUT needs, it’s finally here. Check out the first Wednesday FUTCast issue now to get a taste of what’s to come; I covered everything related to the TOTW 5 drop, ratings reload team 2 leaks, and how the market is gonna change.

I hope you’re going to join me on this journey!

Tales of a MLB bat boy: part 2

Ok so today I'm going to talk about a prank that was played on me. When I look back on it I always feel really stupid but it worked on me. It was one of the very first days after I started so of course I was still very nervous being around all these guys I usually see on TV or from the stands. A certain relief pitcher who shal remane nameless **cough**alan mills**cough** asked me if I had a certain item that they would need in the bullpen. Now keep in mind I was 16 and extermely nervous, he asked if I had gotten the........wait for it...... "bucket of steam". Yes I know! I'm assuming I had a blank look on my face, so he told me to ask someone about it. I asked the clubhouse managers son and he just laughed at me. Needless to say eventually I figured it out.

Also, one of my more out of scope jobs was getting girls phone numbers, usually just for one specific player. One specific event stuck in my mind. "The player" saw a group of ladies sitting near the O's dugout, so after the game was over he asked me to go down to where they were and get them to come down to the other side of the dugout so he could talk to them. Needless to say I wasn't really expecting this, but I went anyway. These girls are trashed they actually start grabbing on to my jersey and hat, i guess they thought I was a player. Eventually I got them to go to the other end of the dugout. Now the best part is the story from "the player" the next day in the training room. He said these girls came to his place and started lighting candles everywhere and he said he just got a wierd vibe from them. So he told them he had to get up early so they should probably go. The ladies leave but after a few seconds he notices something missing off of his desk. He said he ran to the elevator and went to the first floor and caught them just before they left. He noticed an envelope sticking out of one of the girls purses. He took it out of her purse and sure enough it was something of his. The ladies left and he returned to his apartment, no harm no foul I guess. Now that wasn't the only time I performed this task but it was the most memorable.
