I'm sure this isn't an message that the Padres FO would like to see.

It's the truth ticket prices went up for games.  They also went up for season ticket holders that are not buying full season packages. 

After all the hype and BS last week, this is what we get?  I opened my packet on Sunday and was ready to send in the cancel notice.  The ORG set up expectations through the media this last week that ticket prices were going down.  My 20 game package went up $100 per seat, not exactly the 86% that remained the same or went down like Moorad is saying. 

This just lets me know that Moorad is going to pull the same crap Alderson did.  Spin Spin Spin! 

Hello my fellow #Padres fans! I'm starting this post for the end of the season Meet up!
YES Another one!

We still have some awesome hats to give away.  A group of Padres fans are going to meet up and watch the game on the 9/24. I know it's an earlier start, so some people will have to come late, but I think it's worth seeing how many people we can get together. Everyone is invited

Plan is to meet at the Bullpen:
8199 Clairemont Mesa Blvd
San diego, CA 92111
(858) 503-6786
www.bullpenbar.com

Date: 9/24
v. Rockies 5:40 start time.

I just got news that my better half is not able to attend the Padres game tonight.  I'd hate to see these tickets to waste so I thought I would post on gas lamp ball in hopes that someone could make good use of them. 

The seats are Lower Left Field Section 128 Row 1.  Drop me an email steveadler76@yahoo.com

Okay so let me know asap about the tickets cause I'm having trouble reaching the 75 word requirement.

Hello GLB!

I wanted to invite everyone from the GLB site to the Padres.com Forum meetup.  I know some of the people on here post on that site as well.  It would be great to meet any of you and I wanted to make sure you all are aware of the details.

Date: 9/8
v. Giants 7:05 start time.

This is a great chance to get together and meet other people from the board, bounce ideas off and complain about John and/or Becky Moores. We need to get a head count so please come on here and post if you can make it. You are also encouraged to post if you can't make it especially if you don't live around here.

I realize that it's just the pre season, but the feel of football is in the air and I can tell you I am fired up.  I'll be cruising to the game tonight to see a short glimpse of the 1st team.  I would expect the defense to get crazy on the seahawks as most of these guys have a point to prove and the seahawks offense isn't what you would call...well good!  LOL

Who else is going to the game???

This is a post from Padres.com.  The forum tries to get together twice a year and catch a game on TV.  I have enjoyed the GLB site and although I realize some of you are not local I wanted to extend the invite. This is the post below.

We had one earlier in the season and it was fantastic. With the help of redwinekc I will try to whip together a similar meet up as last time.

As a side note, I attend a lot of the game and would enjoy meeting anyone at the games to talk shop, sometimes i even have an extra ticket. So be friendly!

Madden 2010 hits the shelves at more retailers Thursday midnight.  For anyone that love sports and has had a console at one time or another Madden is the mecca of sports gaming.  EA is doing an amazing job of pimping the game via twitter as well. 

I think I'll pick it up on Friday and play a bit through the weekend.  I was curious who else on the board was planning on picking up the game.

The game does have some amazing features to running a football team that allow you to draft, control the cap, sign free agents and control your coaching staff.  New this year is the online franchise mode, this will allow you to take the Bolts online and compete with other players online via xbox or PS3 through numerous seasons.   Quite intense I'm sure! 

Just one more thing to occupy me until kick off.

Starting in round 31!  Today you pick until you can't pick no more!!!  The padres are starting off with arms today. 

After adding even more depth are 1B yesterday the team also added some speed with two very inexperienced outfielders, with big potential.  The Padres are also working on a strong game in the paint adding more size.  The Dodgers better watch out cause our bench will go 10 deep soon. 

Let's Go Padres!!

Looks like were about to get under way.  Corey Brock just broke the news that the Pads have cleared a spot on the 40 man.  Could it be for Tate?

It looks like if the Padres pass on Tate they would be looking at Crow or Matzek

Draft starts at 2:45 on mlb.com.  You can also catch it on the mlb channel.

Paul Dipo will be updating his blog to give us war room insight as well. 

Let's Go Padres!!

I realize that most of you are busy during the day time, but if a handful of people want to go that would be awesome. I have tickets for the evening game, so I think I'm going to just go early and spend the day there and Katie (my lady) will meet me when she gets off work for the evening game. Should be great to see the Storm play.

If anyone is interested in going let me know, I'll see what I can do to get a sweet deal on tickets.
