Just want to let you know that you are not alone.<BR/><BR/>A few weeks ago, I mailed in my questionaire, too. The only difference is that I wrote my credit card number instead of using a check. I was puzzled that no charge was placed on my credit card. When I called the Nats---several times---they kept saying that they have not received my questionaire. I think something has gone wrong with their mail and several questionaires sent in by mail have been lost. I finally got fed up and answered the questionaire on-line and this time my charge went through. It might be best for you to put a stop payment on the check and fill out the questionaire on-line once you've deposited the money into your credit card.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I'm sorry this had to happen to you.<BR/><BR/>Eddie Cunningham<BR/>Fellow season ticket holderEdward J.

(I think she might have contacted me even without last night's email from me). She was very professional about my concerns, took my frustration seriously, took my information over the phone, and gave me contact information for her if I have any other concerns. So I consider the issue resolved. <BR/><BR/>As far as the team, I wasn't listening to the game this afternoon, but I'm glad Flores did well and the bullpen came through.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-76078912864233513622007-07-26T18:38:00.000-04:002007-07-26T18:38:00.000-04:00If Young is signed to a 2 year deal ASAP, won't th...If Young is signed to a 2 year deal ASAP, won't that make him more tradeable?

A terrible performance all around. Flop just looked totally out of it. And Ronnie Belliard was mighty frustrated. His head just drops in great disappointment.<BR/><BR/>Eric: I am also stunned they would be willing to re-sign Young right now. If they are offered something good, they should trade him. As I said before, if he really likes it here and wants to be a part of something special, he's better off leaving now and returning after the season. Then, he's helped both ways.Screech's Best Friendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01094199653375184305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-78540118969839326492007-07-26T12:02:00.000-04:002007-07-26T12:02:00.000-04:00In the long term bad news department, please tell ...In the long term bad news department, please tell me that it's NOT TRUE that Our Team is gonna sign Young to an extension?? He is the epitome of trade bait-- a player with lots of value THIS YEAR to a team in a pennant race, but NO REAL VALUE in the long term for the Nats. Why why why would you possibly consider signing him to an extension instead of trading him???Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16734997986643677086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-89210979462737268232007-07-26T11:32:00.000-04:002007-07-26T11:32:00.000-04:00THIS PLAY LOOKS EVEN WOREST after 12 hours to age....THIS PLAY LOOKS EVEN WOREST after 12 hours to age.... <BR/><BR/>Go to the Nats site and watch the MLB footage if you can stand it......It shows much more that what we see on MASN. Many slow motions and full field angles and ONE IMPORTANT NATIONAL STANDING AROUND!<BR/><BR/>Look at LOPEZ just standing still and not moving at all until the ball is dropped. Look at Ronnie hustling over and showing great frustration at the events. Look at Lopez again taking a lazy side swipe at the ball and then an even less urgent effort to get the ball after he misses the little leage swip. Only when he sees runner going does he act. <BR/><BR/>Why does Acta stand behind Lopez? He has to be the reason Ronnie was keep....I would not spend any more money on FLOP next year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-83624348325550464272007-07-26T09:58:00.000-04:002007-07-26T09:58:00.000-04:00Yes, I believe, Our Number 14, Our Manager Manny A...Yes, I believe, Our Number 14, Our Manager Manny Acta will be able to sleep tonight.MickMcDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07616918751816765213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-4463397127532694332007-07-26T08:37:00.000-04:002007-07-26T08:37:00.000-04:00THIS LOSS REALLY HURT!!!!!!!My two roomies and I w...THIS LOSS REALLY HURT!!!!!!!<BR/><BR/>My two roomies and I were watching the game and we all got PUMPED when we put 3 runs on the board in the 9th!!!!!! It was a great feeling in my house, even my little 5yr cousin was still awake to watch the Nats come back at his house on the phone with me then suddenly with an 0-2 count with 2 outs in the 9th, THE NATS CHOKE AGAIN. WE DONT CALL FOR THE BALL and WE DONT CATCH THE BALL WITH TWO HANDS!!!!!!! I BLAME MANNY FOR THIS and Bowden needs to get on his case about that. And FLOP let me down on that rely to home, WE HAD ROLLINS HE STOPPED at 3rd and then turned on the jets again!<BR/><BR/>You cant blame Booker or the bullpen with that lineup you know they were due it was just a matter of time before Howard, Utley, Rowand got a hold of one, unfortunately it was Howards Homers doing the celebrating :(<BR/><BR/><BR/>ps: why do we even have Ryan Langerhans. I know he has a .300+ OBP but he cant hit for nothing and he is really not the best defensive player (except for that diving catch he made a few weeks ago)?????Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676208.post-1470044011682822642007-07-26T08:14:00.000-04:002007-07-26T08:14:00.000-04:00Honestly, are you people surprised by any of this?...Honestly, are you people surprised by any of this? <BR/><BR/>Calling the ball was officially deemed to advanced a skill and not important this year long ago by Acta. This year is all about helping young players learn (and yes, 27 year olds with several years of MLB experience each can and have greatly regressed under this PLAN!)<BR/><BR/>Honestly is anyone surprised that front office can not open letters and cash checks....come on where have you people been?<BR/><BR/>Just remember, it is all good (just ask) because DC is paying to build the new park and payroll is so low that NATS COULD sign our draft picks.

What made this "blown save" worse was that I was checking my email at the same time, and found a message that said I was IN DANGER OF LOSING MY SEASON TICKET PRIORITY!!!!! I mailed my questionaire, with check, on July 7th. <BR/><BR/>I am NOT happy with my plans for today, which now include trying to phone the box office from my office. I am even less happy with my questions I have about 1) whether I will have to stop payment on the check and put the deposit on the credit card, and 2) how I will communicate questionaire results to the ticket office. When I go to work, I will attempt to call, but when I'm at work, I can't spend a lot of time on hold, and I also can't spend a lot of time on web sites that are not work related. <BR/><BR/>I'm also not looking forward today's game, with a rookie pitcher and a burned out bullpen. Maybe it's a good thing there was no Nats Talk Live last night. <BR/><BR/>I certainly hope the news is better today, because the lack of professionalism on and off the field last night was making Charlie Brown's All Stars sound good.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
