According to Victor Rojas, Pujols press conference Saturday, 11:30 am open to fans:
Pujols press conf. set for Saturday @ 11:30am PT @ Big A - live on @FoxSportsWest & streamed on foxsportswest.com. Open to #Angels fans.
they should do his first, then. I know they’re not, but they should… obviously, Pujols is the big deal here (as well he should be!), but there’s no reason we can’t be stoked about CJ, too
The only reason I went to the All Star game was so I could say I got to see the best player of his generation in person play. No idea that I was going to be able to see him play many many many times in person. Still up in the clouds a day later. Thanks JeDi and Arte for making it happen. I’ll be sure to spend money at the tea store tomorrow as we all should as a thank you
It was held out under the caps. No seating for fans, so be prepared to stand for an hour or two behind all the club dignataries. And the press showing should be huge, so you could be peeking between the news cameras. Parking will be free, and plentiful.
I wouldn’t mind owning one, however, the only number 5 I can associate it with is Mathis (im only 23). I can see the 5 and picture Mathis’ name over it…Maybe next year I might be able to erase the name from my mind….
I never had the pleasure of watching Brian Downing play, either.
But, everything I’ve read and the interview he gave when being inducted lead me to believe he was a great player and a great guy. WIsh I could have seen him play.
there is a Mark Trumbo/Wally Joyner/Mark Langston signing at the OC Dugout at roughly the same time though if you want to pay out the ass for an autograph
Awesome!
Glad they didn’t do it on a work day. I’ll be watching (and probably pouring champagne on myself). Thanks for the heads up!
Teixeira Who? - December 8, 2011
Are they doing a combo
Wilson+Pujols press conference. It seems like what the kids are doing nowadays.
angelsownredsux - December 8, 2011
Rojas tweeted earlier today
That they would have separate news conferences….yet to see any confirmation on that.
It may be since the Pujols signing is so huge in and of itself, that they’ll do them separate
The Furious Bat of Howie47 - December 8, 2011
I saw on Twitter earlier
that CJ’s will be on Tuesday. Not sure why it’s separate.
howiestheman - December 8, 2011
If it was together
CJ would be forgotten about like he’s the step-child.
Theren86n02 - December 8, 2011
that's a good point
they should do his first, then. I know they’re not, but they should… obviously, Pujols is the big deal here (as well he should be!), but there’s no reason we can’t be stoked about CJ, too
howiestheman - December 8, 2011
Supposedly C.J’s is on Tues.

DAD OF VLAD - December 9, 2011

firebird81 - December 9, 2011

eyespy - December 9, 2011
how stoked do you think Victor is right now?
2pintsofbooze - December 8, 2011
He's polishing off some gems, that's for sure.
“3-run jimmy jack!”
5thStarter - December 8, 2011
I will get used to that
angelsownredsux - December 8, 2011
You mean, we will score 3 runs in a game now?
Weaver must be so happy! 2011 W/L for Weave: 24-4!
stuck in Romania - December 9, 2011
If we had pulols last year
Weave would have won a cy young!
the king of CERA - December 9, 2011

Stirrups - December 8, 2011
I'll be there!
Teixeira Who? - December 8, 2011
Me & my kids are going to go.
‘Fo ’sho. I couldn’t pass this up. How many times do you get to see the Halos land the biggest FA in club history?
halofolife - December 8, 2011
I’m going to try and go with my dad. First time I’d see Albert in person.
migfig - December 9, 2011 via mobile
I'm planning on rolling out
I’ve never seen Albert in person. This will be a blast.
JeffJoiner - December 9, 2011
I'll be there

LBClippersFan - December 9, 2011
Will you be spending that money on Earl Grey, or Darjeerling?
personally I prefer coffee over tea.
steelgolf - December 9, 2011
well sir i perfer
earl grey supreme black tea its got a strong robust flavor. Thanks for your question. It was a good one.
LBClippersFan - December 9, 2011
Tea. Earl Grey. Hot.
BruinHalo - December 9, 2011
Engage.
Stirrups - December 9, 2011
No Oolong? Or Chai?
Gorbachav5 - December 9, 2011
How about a nice cup of something almost, but not quite entirely, unlike tea?
red floyd - December 9, 2011
Deep Thought???
eyespy - December 9, 2011
Close. The Sirius Cybernetics whatever-it-was on the Heart of Gold.
red floyd - December 9, 2011

firebird81 - December 9, 2011
I'll be there...anyone been to one of these before have some advice?
I’m thinking getting there about 10:30, I figure that should give me a front row view right?
The Furious Bat of Howie47 - December 8, 2011
10:30 .... PM THE NIGHT BEFORE.
HELLLLLOOO!
Downing Rules - December 8, 2011
I went to Weaver's recent presser.
It was held out under the caps. No seating for fans, so be prepared to stand for an hour or two behind all the club dignataries. And the press showing should be huge, so you could be peeking between the news cameras. Parking will be free, and plentiful.
Stirrups - December 8, 2011
I really want to go
But have no car. Metrolink doesn’t get there until 1230. FML.
jessthelion - December 8, 2011
What area are you in?
I wouldn’t mind helping a fellow HHer with a ride…I got an extra spot in my car
The Furious Bat of Howie47 - December 8, 2011
panther
yeswecan - December 8, 2011
Temecula.
migfig - December 9, 2011 via mobile
You're in Temecula too?
I’m in Redhawk, about 2 minutes from the casino.
halofolife - December 9, 2011
I should have never left SoCal
NathanielS - December 8, 2011
Should be biggest showing of HH community
Everyone here should show up in droves for this, show Pujols that this town loves its team as much as folks in St. Louis.
Striker2theLine - December 8, 2011 via mobile
i would drive there tonight
if it was not for my damn kids
DAD OF VLAD - December 8, 2011
And your recently boned wife.
sheisalovelyladyandmyapologiestoher - December 8, 2011
i think i may be having a son in 10 months
named Alberto Pujols Margetich
DAD OF VLAD - December 8, 2011
Woah. When will C.J be conceived?
migfig - December 9, 2011 via mobile
Keeping in the spirit of the occasion, CJ Margetich needs to be Albert's twin.
Stirrups - December 9, 2011
CJ is a stupid name
i only name my kids after position players
DAD OF VLAD - December 9, 2011
So your kids' names are: missionary; doggy; cowgirl?
Downing Rules - December 9, 2011
You forgot 69.
angelslogic - December 9, 2011

~MMP~ - December 9, 2011
WOAH THAT’S HUGE NEWS!
migfig - December 9, 2011 via mobile
Who was the person on here who said (even before we aquired Pujols and CJ)
That at the presser, Pujols was going to be carrying CJ on his shoulders n such?
maze88 - December 9, 2011
'Twas I.
But I’ve amended that: Pujols will be carrying CJ in his arms.
5thStarter - December 9, 2011
SEE YA'LL THERE
ihearhowie2.0 - December 9, 2011
same day as a lunar eclipse. coincidence? I think not
2pintsofbooze - December 9, 2011
And Uranus ending its retrograde just prior to that
Talk about a metaphor for this franchise.
Rev Halofan - December 9, 2011
that just blew my mind
2pintsofbooze - December 9, 2011 via mobile
They have it on sale at ANGELS.com already (Pujols jersey)

maze88 - December 9, 2011
read up on Brian Downing
The original #5 of Anaheim.
Rev Halofan - December 9, 2011
I never had the pleasure of watching Brian Downing play, either.
But, everything I’ve read and the interview he gave when being inducted lead me to believe he was a great player and a great guy. WIsh I could have seen him play.
5thStarter - December 9, 2011
Yea, I've read up on him
but never had a chance to see him live in action.
maze88 - December 9, 2011
Rec'd
Because I loved watching Downing as a kid.
JeffJoiner - December 9, 2011
same here
yeswecan - December 9, 2011
I never saw him as a kid, but instead when he was an adult, playing baseball for the Halos
;)
Downing Rules - December 9, 2011
A buddy just ran into Pujols at a Fashion Island hotel about 30 minutes ago
And was promptly cock-blocked by two huge bodyguards…You can hang with him tonight as he camps out trying to catch a signature!
Dontbatvlad4th - December 9, 2011
must not had enough money for an autograph
Dono Romantico - December 9, 2011
anyone have a link to the streaming?
im not seeing it on foxsportswest.com
big0lbad - December 9, 2011
its tomorrow
im guessing they’ll put up a link around 11 am
LBClippersFan - December 9, 2011
lol, totally forgot today is friday! :D
big0lbad - December 9, 2011
It's also going to be live on MLBTV at 11:30
44FAN - December 9, 2011
Can't be there but hope we have a huge crowd chanting Arte's, Jerry DiPanther's, Pujols', and Wilson's name!!!
stuck in Romania - December 9, 2011
The new banner at the top of Halos Heaven
Gives me goosebumps
ryanfea - December 9, 2011
Will be there.
clover_black - December 9, 2011
will there be any chances to get an autograph?
Frank158369 - December 9, 2011
not bloody likely.
there is a Mark Trumbo/Wally Joyner/Mark Langston signing at the OC Dugout at roughly the same time though if you want to pay out the ass for an autograph
No Bologna Polonia - December 9, 2011
Are you suggesting to pay out the Pujols for an autograph?
Downing Rules - December 9, 2011
When is the earliest any of you plan on getting there?
I’m coming from near Harbor and the 91 and will be leaving at 8.
AnaheimHalos61 - December 9, 2011
I'm coming from Temecula.
I’m leaving around 8 myself. Not anticipating that much traffic. Except by the stadium of course.
halofolife - December 9, 2011
yeah, I just want to be cautious because I really have no idea how many people will be there
I know it will be a lot, I just don’t know whether it will be 1500 or 10000.
AnaheimHalos61 - December 9, 2011
