Barry Bonds is not part of the MLB Players Association, so they just used a different name, so they dont have to pay money to use his name i guess. I just found this: Video game companies can get around not having Bonds by featuring a player with a lot of power on the Giants, but without using Bonds' name or number.

You do know that's the game developer right? I'm pretty sure he knows that lol and so do the rest of us. He legally has to say that Stocker isn't bonds

You will get stubs and tickets for playing any mode the missions are only DD related. Captain missions reward tickets where as other missions like team collections and runs scored earn varying rewards like flashbacks and packs.

As a former 8 year old and an enormous Ken Griffey Jr. fan, I feel like SCEA could easily sell ALL THE COPIES next year if they took a page out of 2K's book and paid for Ken Griffey Jr.'s name and likeness, threw him on the cover, made like 3-5 Griffey DD cards, maybe even created a mode around him like 2K did with Jordan where you could play a MyCareer as rookie Jordan and also relive a lot of his iconic moments. Maybe a RTTS where you pick up Griffey's career after 1999 and try to avoid all the injuries and break the HR record.

I know this has nothing to do with anything, but the whole Reggie Stocker thing got me thinking about how Griffey needs to be in the game, and then my brain went on a tangent.

You responded to the guy who's basically the face of the development team and lectured him about player likeness rules lol. If you can't see the humor in that, without resulting to ad hominems...
