did anyone else get this crap? a pre-recorded landon inviting me to the MLS cup final... i assume "he" got my number from the galaxy front office as a seson ticket holder... dear dougie hamilton: do you really think the best way to get galaxy fans to come out to the final is to have one of the architects of their miserable capitulation call me? are you trying to rub salt in the wounds? and to add insult to injury i got the call at work, and then there at home, the red blinking light called to me... who could it be... it's $%^#% landon donovan again!
I had TWO of those freaking messages today! He sounded worse than the kids at UCSB that try and hustle money from the alums! "Dude...come to the MLS Cup this Sunday. It's gonna be rad" AAARGH! I had FINALLY started to feel a little better since (props to Dan Loney) Slaughterhouse 5.2! What's next Dougie, announcing you sold the Galaxy to Chivas!!! GO FIRE!!!
Glad to see that the Galaxy F.O. has responded to my list of demands that I sent them earlier in the year: Slow, Aging Korean Fulback? Check Seven dollar beers? Check Losing season? Check Greatest collapse in MLS playoff history? Check Personal phone call from Landon Donovan telling me to come see the Western Conference Champion San Jose Earthquakes play the Chicago Fire in MLS Cup 2003? Check Just waiting for Doug Hamilton to come over to my house and personally kick me in the groin to complete this wonderful year. Can't wait to hear the message on my machine tomorrow. Perhaps it'll be Saddam Hussein urging me to donate to the U.S. Veterans' Relief Fund. Oh, the irony of it all...
This call is proably 100 times worse than receiving a telemarketer call during dinner. As I said in another thread, I'll be ripping San Jose, but after receiving this call, I'll be doing more so to Baby Jesus and the Galaxy FO. Very weak sauce.
Thanks for clearing this up--I got this call too, and couldn't figure out why. It must be because I ordered a couple tickets from the Galaxy earlier this year (I was in LA for the 4th of July). The HDC must be hurting for ticket sales to have to resort to this crap.
Be glad you only got it twice – it was left on my answering machine FOUR TIMES! C’mon Galaxy F.O. - THINK a little before you guys do this…
