Curt Johnson Annual Q&A session w/ the Cauldron

[BenC1357]

You turning english on us?
Seriously, when are you going to quit worrying about spelling and grammer? It's fairly common knowledge around BS that all of us are idiots who can't spell or use the proper words to construct a sentence. You got the point, right? That's all that mattered.

You mean grammar?

That said, I'm not sure it's even a good idea to ask Curt about the sale or anything related.

I was going to suggest this myself.

You know, grammar and sit/set are two of my biggest mistakes when typing. I can type fast, and I rarely look back.

not to speak out of turn... i think vividox wasn't trying to correct you, but rather asking if you'd turned english because they pronounce schedule with a sh sound instead of a k sound... and your typo made it sound like the former.

havin' a bad mornin'? you wan'a sandwich? eh, big guy?;)

Look at it this way. At this point one of these two things is likely going to be true - possibly both:

1) Curt Johnson will not be working for HSG

or

2) Curt Johnson will not be General Manager of the Kansas City Wizards.

If he's not going to be working for HSG next year, why should he be too concerned about the tight-lipped party line? Remember that Curt used to be far more talkative when he first started. If he's still GM next year, it'll be for new paymasters.

Frankly, I wouldn't be overly shocked to see Curt move on to either Columbus or Dallas. He's been a great loyal soldier for HSG. He's gotten very good results on very meager support, and he's run a tight ship.


What if he has no idea and is still "playing" for his job? He is not going to say much if anything about the future of the club imo.

Hey Ben bravo for setting this up. Just to bad that we really can't ask him to much about our future as a section.

How about..... Why has Eddie Johnson and Josh Wolff been crap all year?

[BenC1357]

Worst night at work in my life. 15,000# of product spilled, fired the 23 year employee and shop steward (a guy I liked and was sort of friends with) responsible for the spill because he refused a drug test, then spent 5 hours cleaning up the mess that won't be clean for a week. Needless to say I'm beat and have to be back in as soon as I get some sleep.
Therefore, can't come to the game. :( Please play nice with Curt and don't grill him too much. ;)

I'll hoist a beer or two for ya... hope you have a better day...

[MtMike]

Well, what did Curt say?

[Wiz fa shiz]

Yeah, what DID Curt say? Can anyone provide a rough transcript from memory?

[MtMike]

bump. Get over your hangovers and answer this already.

[kuhnscoot]

sorry, I didn't pay a whole lot of attention, I was an idiot and tried to do a maradona on my way over from the fire hydrant cooling off and was in a bit too much pain to listen... I know we asked about the deal with FSC, which he didn't really know much about. We asked most of the questions Andy posted on page 1 of this thread, well John asked them...

[KCWizMystic4Life]

NOTE: These answers are rough recolections of what Curt said.

What is the status of Arrowhead being a venue for the Wizards during it's rehab? What sites have you narrowed it down to if it's unavailable.
A: Its possible, depending on how the renovation is done that it could be a venue during the season, however we have other sites in mind but I can't mention them due to (Insert business reason here).

Why can't you buy legit team jerseys in the Pro Shop at games? It's only T-shirts, Hats and Stickers.
Has to do with the company that runs those stands and the fact that they don't want to be stuck with extra product at the end of the season.

Is the Zard program really all that successful or would we be better off not interrupting the game to display that Johnnie won a free Frosty?
I don't remember what he said to that one...

Can we get a Got Milf mom of the game?
Unfortunately wasn't asked :D

The AT&T half time ball roll is lame. Roll a ball 10 feet onto an ad? At least bring back the penalty shot through the banner. Or one of my favorite tailgate games was chip the soccer ball into the trash drum. It's harder than you think but looks easy on the surface.
Curt said that obviously thats the best AD op there is, however he did agree he would like to see the bubble balls again or at least something new.

Player interviews and visual biographies on the video boards during pregame and at halftime or at least highlights of the past couple of games. If that costs too much effort bring in the limbo dance thing over from the Royals games.
He seemed to like this idea, but said it likely wouldn't happen till '07.

Thats all I remember, I know there were more asked, anyone else?

[TrooperBari]

More importantly, did he accept the offer of an Irish car bomb?

[kuhnscoot]

he said he would if we won.........

I didn't ask any questions.

Or is there another Andy behind one of those screennames?
