Friended him on Facebook and he accepted. I messaged him thanks for accepting me and he said "NP, Glad to have fans as friends."

Then I asked him a question "How do you like the organization?"

Five minutes later he deleted me as a friend! What did I do? Not like I asked for an auto or anything. All I asked was a legit formal question. Whats his problem? If he doesn't want to deal with fans then A. Why be on Facebook? and B. Why accept me in the 1st place

He knew that the next question was going to be "Can I get an autograph?" so he just went ahead and deleted you. :lol:

No, I friended him just like 1,000 other fans did. I said thanks for accepting me, he answered. And I asked him a question, which I don't find annoying unless it's question after question without an answer.

Haha. I would never do that. I'm also friends with Chad Huffman and during Spring Training I got into a nice long conversation with him about how it's like playing professionally and how the SPring was for him. And after a while he actually offered me an Auto. He sent me a Game Used Autographed Bat. He's a nice guy

He uses facebook to chat with his friends, not to be interviewed by fans...

More then likely he thought you were a reporter or something.

I think it was pretty nice to accept a fan.

I understand but, Idk how he'd think I am a reporter. You can clearly tell in my profile pic that I am 13-15 years old

You somehow relate every single thread to the fact that you get IP autographs.

(expecting a story on how some Pirate once told you the same thing IP)

You look through everything everyone here posts and either have a smartass comment or point out the things they do that you cant seem to let go without a comment on.

Barry attends pretty much every minor league game in his hometown. If most of his experiences with players are getting their autos IP what would you expect him to talk about instead? Just like a former Topps employee here that talks about what happened when he worked at Topps. Most of us relate our opinions to our experiences.

Stop being a toolbag.

I am new to this particular board. What happened with the Pirate IP experience?
