Q & A with Josh Byrnes Aug 23rd, 2008

I just posted this at DBBP:

After seeing our disappointment (At DBBP)  at not being able to attend a Q &A with Josh, Derrick Hall reached out ....again.....and let me know he wanted to arrange something special. None of the speculation about the reasons for it not being available were correct. It was simply something that the ticketing department was going to make exclusive to season ticket holders....but they obviously decided to open it up. After some consultation, the date of August 23rd, which coincides with the DBBP/AZ Snakepit group outing has been chosen for a special Q &A session.

Below is the text and information I just received:

 

Hello

After speaking with our Team President, Derrick Hall, we will be having a Fans Ask Questions session with Executive Vice President and General Manager Josh Byrnes on Saturday, August 23rd.  The session is free for anyone who pre-registers and has a ticket for that night’s game.  It will be held in the Upper Concourse Banquet Room beginning at 3:15pm, 15 minutes after gates open and last approximately 1 hour.  A flyer is currently being made, I can e-mail it to you after completion if you would like.  To register, fans can e-mail me or call 602-462-6544.  Please let me know if you need anything else.

 

Thanks,

Ryan

Here is Ryan's e mail address:

RGinsberg@dbacks.com

So if you are going to the game Sat, Aug 23rd, e mail Ryan, or Call him to register.

Thanks to Derrick, Josh, and Ryan.

You guys are the best. !!

Super, super cool...

I’m not sure I’ll be able to make the Q+A [since I’ll likely be sitting at Sliders with a large stack of tickets to hand out!], but this is very exciting news.

The Cubs do this every year at their annual Cubs Convention.

I have to go for business but the fans Q & A with the GM and Manager is always the highlight of the trip. Watching Joe Fan after a sixer of Old Style question Hendry about the Marquis signing or Jacque Jones is high comedy.

Not to mention seeing Sweet Lou begin to get upset when asked about Murton’s PT.

Probably best if BoMel isn’t involved in this trial run.

Not really a trial run here...

Josh, Peter Woodfork, and Tom Allison hosted a Q&A last June and did a great job.

There’s gotta only be so many ways to say, “Look, we just SUCK, alright?? We’re the flipping Cubs!!”

Have the Dodgers lost yet?

Another good move

by the team management in trying to get more fan-friendly.

They keep doing stuff like this and Dhacks may need to find a new username.
