For the first time ever, I'm rooting against the Devil Rays.:o

:o

Yep, it is pretty embarrassing that a team with a 209 million dollar payroll is 5.5 games behind one with a 43 million dollar payroll. xwhistlex

Fixed it. xthumbsupx No Devil in the name anymore. I'm gonna try to catch a game at the Trop this weekend. I hope some of those closet Yankees fans come out as well. xlolx

I'm for the Sox though I'm rooting for the other Chicago team... the Rays are my favorite AL team at the moment though.

Go Sox!

Tampa won't be the same without Percival

Could be worse, we could have thrown out money and prospects like the Mariners and already be dead for the season

Agreed.

Game 2:

The surprising White Sox will look to hand Tampa Bay its first back-to-back home losses in six weeks on Friday, when the teams continue the first series between outright first-place clubs in the history of the ballpark.

I don't care if you're a Yankees fan or a Red Sox fan.. but rooting against the "Rays" is strange..!!!
They deserve the success they are having and that is something any "Baseball" fan should be thrilled about



(I'm a Red Sox fan) but am completely enjoying the Rays success... they are fun

You know who I was talking about. xnodx :D
