DigitalRock Old-Timey Member Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 The data is based on Facebook likes, which may not correlate well to actual numbers of fans (especially among older folks, the proportion of which is likely skewed a bit in places like Florida). It's still interesting though. LOL, and the world keeps getting dumber.
connorp Old-Timey Member Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Admittedly I have the kind of personality that is always willing to cheat (within the law) and take the shortcut but can’t you “buy” a bunch of Twitter/FB followers and such to give your podcast some legitimacy when trying to get people on?

We didn't have to do that. Josh has been very willing to join us from the moment we reached out to him. He seems like a really nice, approachable kid, for what it's worth. He was the first player we asked.

I'd never even heard of him before this thread started.

I just meant in terms of some of the other names I heard mentioned that may pick their spots different. But you’re doing it the honorable way and smart. I can imagine players starting out that may not have been solicited otherwise would be more willing to come on
connorp Old-Timey Member Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Is there a reason for this? Do you guys know him? I'd never even heard of him before this thread started. Pretty simple logic amigo. You don’t shoot for the prom queen when you sit at the nerd table. Not to s*** on their thing though. I honestly think it’s cool. Just saying I’d “cheat” to speed up the process but they’re better men then me

We think he's a legitimate prospect that not enough people know about, so we thought he would be a perfect target for the podcast.
BigBounceyBlueBalls Old-Timey Member Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Question will you only be Looking to talk or do this with Bluejay players or will you be looking To do this with young and old Canadian Ball Players as well too ?

Organic, gradual growth is the way to sustainable, long-term success, connor.

BigBounceyBlueBalls Old-Timey Member Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 We will not intentionally target Canadian baseball players. DonÂ’t think that answered the question as to what I asked. Ummm thanks flip media guy lol and no where did I say Target them as you stated ... Answer the Damn question ! 😊 Racist !!! Lol

The Cats Ass Old-Timey Member Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Out of all the teams he's played on going back to little league does he have an all-time favourite teammate?
TheHurl Site Manager Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Josh has made it clear that he follows prospect lists and it drives him. Radio Scouts giving him attention probably is good for him and for the site. Would be better if he had more followers.

jays4life19 Old-Timey Member Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Josh checks in @ 35th on Todd's list.
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 Thanks for all the suggestions, guys. We definitely will use a few of these. God I'm nervous

Brownie19 Old-Timey Member Posted January 8, 2019 Posted January 8, 2019 Have you guys decided on a reduced roster, or are you going to hit him with 5 people? Poor guy might be showing up to a bukkake of questions...
Boxcar Old-Timey Member Posted January 9, 2019 Posted January 9, 2019 Have you guys decided on a reduced roster, or are you going to hit him with 5 people? We went with 3 by accident as Mike decided not to speak Josh is a real dude. Interview was almost an hour.
P2F Old-Timey Member Posted January 9, 2019 Author Posted January 9, 2019 We went with 3 by accident as Mike decided not to speak Josh is a real dude. Interview was almost an hour. Lol! Okay, that's not entirely true, but also not far from accurate.
P2F Old-Timey Member Posted January 9, 2019 Author Posted January 9, 2019 Looking forward to this one. He gave us so much stuff. Honestly, the interview is terrific. He seems like a really good kid; confident in his abilities, which is what you like to see. Anyway, I won't say anything else because I don't want to spoil it, but I'm really looking forward to hearing this back.

John_Havok Old-Timey Member Posted January 11, 2019 Posted January 11, 2019 s***, I didn't press record! Luckily I did!
