Rays going to World Series
As I'm sure you've heard, The Tampa Bay Rays are going to The World Series. Let me repeat that: The Tampa Bay Rays are going to the World Series. The Tampa Bay Rays are going to the World Series. And as an AL East guy, I'm stunned. To think in April that the Tampa Bay Rays were going to make the playoffs was asinine. To think they would make the World Series, well, you were crazy. It was incomprehensible. It's amazing that they are here. But, look at the talent on the team. Carlos Pena. Evan Longoria. James Shields. Matt Garza. The list goes on and on. And what strikes me as amazing is the resilliancy this team shows. I mean, they lost game 5 in heartbreaking fashion. Game 6 didn't go their way. Game 7 they were down early. But they fought. They fought. They fought just like Jonny Gomes fought in Spring Training, just like James Shields fought in Boston. The Rays were sick of their label as cellar dwellars, and proved everyone wrong. Amazing. Going into the year, Red Sox-Phillies seemed like a pretty good prediction. Rays-Phillies? You'd be out of your mind. The Rays are for real folks. They've been real since day 1. And they're not going anywhere. Not for awhile. Congrats Rays. You taught us all how to fight, and never take no for an answer.
