So I wanted to take some time to congratulate the Tampa Rays on having the best record in baseball. it’s been a long hard road for those fans.
What have they learned (that other certain teams could observe):
They decided to go with home grown stars and home grown pitching. They got rid of softball-looking jerseys and have a nice neat classic look.
So hooray for the Rays.
Then I remembered they are ganinging up on the Yankees, and the Rays are in Tampa which is home of the Steinbrenners.
Will we hear from Hank today? We may even hear from George!
And if I have my math right, the Subway Series will include Santana, rain and Maine.
Could be a long weekend for the Yankees.
Back to the Rays. Found a Rays blog: http://www.tampabaysportsblog.com/
And he’s right about Rays fans. Time to show up!
More fans need to show: There should be no excuse now for all of you not going to these games. I realize that I only live two miles from the stadium so I’m not saying everyone should make it to the same amount of games I do but less than 15,000 for the Yankees? Get off your asses and go people!
UPDATE: well that was quick. Hank spoke to the Post – http://www.nypost.com/seven/05142008/sports/yankees/baby_boss_bashes_bumbling_bombers_110724.htm
“The bottom line is that the team is not playing the way it is capable of playing,” Steinbrenner said. “These players are being paid a lot of money and they had better decide for themselves to earn that money.”
