yeah guide it by hitting the arrow keys.. go faster with the "Y" key.. .and slower with the "H" key... you can also "warp" if you stand on one foot and sing "god bless the queen" in a high falceto voice while gargling with peanut butter (though it has to be the chunky, smooth makes it crash). You can get two dogfighting if you restart quickly, and throw another.. but you got to be REAL fast..

The Moonman, #18 Mike Shannon is the voice of the Cardinals. For those of you haven't heard him on the radio, his speech gets slurred as he enjoys cool frosty ones. By the 7th inning he says some strange stuff.
"Shannonism's"
"This big standing-room only crowd is settling into their seats."
"It's raining like a Chinese fire drill"
(After Brian Jordan was hit by a pitch for the 4th time on a single road trip)
"Jordan must feel like a Ouija Board."
(Referring to Bernard Gilkey)
"He was originally born in University City."
"He's faster than a chicken being chased by Ronald McDonald!"
(Referring to Mike Schmidt)
"the longtime, and soon-to-be, Hall-of-Famer."
(Referring to Hideo Nomo) "He's the biggest thing to hit
Japan since they dropped the bomb on Nagashima!"
"This game is off to a rather conspicuous
start, don't you think. Jack?"
"Well, folks, this game began as a tiny worm,
and is blossoming into a large cobra."
"That foul tip bounced up and caught him right in the groins
...and that'll really clear your eyes out."
"A hit up the middle right now would be like
a nice ham sandwich and a cold, frosty one."
(Broadcasting from New York under a full moon)
"I wish you folks back in St. Louis could see this moon."
(On the day before Easter)
"I just want to tell everyone 'Happy Easter and Happy Hanukkah.'"
"Things are not always as they appear to be as."
"Well, he did everything right to get ready for the throw,
but if ya ain't got the hose, the water just won't come out."
"Our next homestand follows this road trip."
(Referring to a home run by Ted Simmons)
"And that's the bread on Simmons' butter."
"The right-hander is throwing up in the bullpen."
"I've heard it said that if you know English, Spanish, Italian,
and I think it's French, you can go just about anywhere in this world
...except China where they have all those derelicts."
After a pause, Joe Buck suggested that Mike has meant to say "dialects."
Mike responded, "Yeah, dialects! That's what I mean
...but they've got a lot of derelicts too!"
"He ran to second faster than a cat in Chinatown."
"I wouldn't have seen it if I hadn't believed it."
"Don't bite off your head to spite your nose."
Joe: "Mike, the Cardinals would like to welcome a
group of 19 French foreign exchange students in Section 382."
Mike: "Where're they from, Joe?"
Joe: "Uhh, France, I think."
Mike and Joe Buck were discussing the unflattering
photographs of players that had been flashed on the screen at
another ballpark. Mike's take on the quality of the photo selection was:
"Some of those guys look like the picture was taken while they were
seeing their first UFO." After several seconds of laughter,
Joe added, "As opposed to their second or third."
"The wind switched 360 degrees."
"Boy, a cold, frosty Budweiser would be
great about now"...long pause...then an "ahhh"
Mike's classic: "Ol' Abner Doubleday has done it again."
"It's raining so hard I thought it was going to stop."
"The crowd's on their feet for the Canadian Star Bangled Banner."
"Back in the day when I played, a pitcher had 3 pitches:
a fastball, a curveball, a slider, a change-up and a good sinker pitch."
"Swing and a homerun...but it's foul"
‘‘You can't argue with the weather.''
“The Ozarks are a beautiful place this time of year,
with all the animals scurrying around,
trying to add to their heritage......”
"Like Spring makes the rains come,
so does the edge of the plate grow."
"The Dodgers are ahead by 5 runs or 3 runs
or in between there somewhere"
As Albert Pujols stepped up to the plate, Shannon says
"I know what's wrong here...I forgot to get the lucky peanut out!"
So he pulls the peanut out of his pocket and sets it out on the table.
Within 10 seconds, Albert homered to give the Cardinals the lead and Shannon proclaimed,
"The lucky peanut does it again!!!"
"Popped up, into foul territory and out of play.
Oh, that ball landed right in a lady's Busch."
"You know, if you can keep Geronimo Pena healthy,
you can win the Pulitzer Prize in Health."
About what elevated Whitey Herzog as a manager:
''The key thing is, he has that photogenic mind.''
(On Jose Oquendo buying a new house)
''He's going to make his winter home here year-round.''
(1-0 lead at Wrigley Field)
‘‘One run in this ballpark is like a grain of salt in the Sahara Desert.''
(Coleman called out on strikes)
‘‘He knew he was out when he heard that right hand go up.''
(Cards-Cubs series at Wrigley)
‘‘Even the standing-room only seats have been sold.''
(Cards-Cubs rivalry)
‘‘It doesn't matter if they're home or away, or vice versa.''
"Well, that's the life of a reliever.
It's either a mountain or a valley, there's no in-between.
You either get all the glory or all the...goat hair.”
