I hung up as soon as I worked out I was being ball busted by a machine. So about 4 seconds.

I found it a mildly confusing. He started blabbing "John Longmire here" - took me a few seconds to figure out it was the coach. Didn't help I was sitting in a meeting.
At least it wasn't outsourced to an Indian call centre.... "we would like you to be coming to a most excellent footballing match... also can I sell you a wonderful OPTUS call plan"
I've had sympathy for today's Horse and other machines since reading "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?"
Besides, he was so genuinely keen on luring me (and Annie) to the game it was hard to dismiss him. And it might have been Horse himself playing a trick on me again - like constantly almost selecting TDL.
Got the same call, and it doesn't bother me but it's preaching to the converted. I was always going to the game. I'd be happy to save them the cost of the phone call!

I got it as well. Didn't mind on this occasion, as it was about my religion. Still can't go to the game though, because (as with a lot of Swans supporters) we have Sydney AFL commitments on Saturday.
Can't understand why the Swans would want to play on Saturday afternoon.

YOU BETCHA!!!!!!
Well he bloody well didn't call me so he can get stuffed... I'm not going.

He called me too but I missed the call. When I accessed the message later he told me that he was sorry he'd missed me (I assume he was sorry he missed my call but you never know I guess....)
I thought it was kind of cool and amusing at the same time. Good on the club for giving it a go.
