2016 USOC Draw

Maybe they are finally becoming self aware? Realize we're still a bit disheartened from the team's performance. Maybe free USOC tickets to anyone who still wants to support? Nah! who we kidding?
I have a feeling the atmosphere at the mothership (ours) is pretty frenetic this week and tensions are strained. The big mothership has probably been in contact and voiced their feelings. Frazzled nerves and walking on eggshells make for a slowdown in productivity.
Usually there's the Behind the Scenes videos from games. There hasn't been one for the Toronto match or that match that happened on Saturday. They posted a photo album of Matarrita on NYCFC.com. He's not even playing this weekend because of Copa America. The match day page has the correct opponent but the wrong broadcaster. It says gates open 2 hours rather than what is typically 90 minutes. So yeah, the office is in a funk.
I would bet there have been a ton of unplanned meetings this week that have had to be crammed into schedules. I bet a lot of high level PR & marketing stuff from an emergency standpoint - very likely including the opening question, "who the Fck thought it was a good idea to say 'Super Frank' when we were down by five?!?!" Followed closely by,"do you all live in a bubble? My intern has been telling me there's a near revolt brewing on that website."
Yeah, I kind of agree with this. If the Mets were to go and lose the next 10 in a row with Matt Harvey getting shellacked for 3 of those 10 you wouldn't expect to have the front office in a tizzy would you? You'd get the usual Terry Collins postgame interviews, perhaps getting a bit more grumpy as the loss count rises of course. And you'd have people on Twitter and on whatever Mets forums there might happen to be going ballistic and predicting the end of the world. But none of that would change the front office's plans for events, season ticket renewal emails, or whatever. Nor should it.
Just feels like we may be overreacting a little here. The business of the front office is to run the day to day business of the team. They're not going to stop lining up signboard advertisers, say, just because we got creamed last weekend. Nor should they.
"The match will be broadcasted on YES."
Still probably buying a ticket, but that was a pleasant surprise.
Why did they not send emails about this and is there a passcode for founding members?
Presale code will be emailed around 430,445 to all Founding Members so keep an eye out. Just finishing talking to a Fan Rep. If you don't get an email, use your acct # as Presale code.

Since most seats are General Admission by section, is there interest in picking a "forum section" where we can try to get seats in?

Sure but if coming from work and heading to the nether reaches of the Bronx, there isn't a lot of time pre-game to grab a drink.
I like this idea a lot.
I'd be totally down with doing the "expensive" seats in Section 8 at $25/each.
We would need to coordinate a row as well, and people could just pick the seats in that section closest to that row.
