Thanks 
As far as the ALCS goes I hope Tampa wins in 7....part of me says Tampa (the city) doesn't deserve it as they really have a terrible fan base and their attendance records are the WORST in the league at an avg of 40.7%...TERRIBLE!

!!!I'm interested in the side story if it becomes a Rays v. Phillies WS. The Phillies spring training is in Clearwater (where I live, and Killer too) which is just a few miles north of St. Pete (where the Rays play) in the same county. On the way from Tampa to Clearwater going over the Courtney Campbell Causeway you'll see a sign that says "Go Rays" then a sign about 1000ft later that says "Go Phillies" and then just after that is a sign that says "Welcome to Clearwater spring training home of the Phillies". There's a famous breakfast restaurant in town called "Lenny's" that is right across from the Phillies new spring training stadium (even though the restaurant was there way before the stadium) and it's owned by HUGE Phillies fans and decorated in all sorts of Phillies stuff. During spring training they're open late for just the team so that they can come over and eat there, etc. So I'm hopin Erin Andrews hot ass comes to my town and does a report about this, I'll take Rachel Nichols too it doesn't matter.
I got my hair cut today and the barber cut it shorter than he normally does it and it looks just like a military jar head hair cut. As soon as my mom saw me she goes "Is that one of those?" I knew immediately that she was talking about my hair and asking if it was a ray-hawk. I said no and rolled my eyes. Then I get to work and my manager sees it and she goes "oh, did you get a ray-hawk?" I'm like no bitch, shut your whore mouth!! I don't wanna hear that shit!! So then every came up and was asking if it was a ray-hawk!! I doesn't even look like a mohawk!!

No more like 99%. I've only seen one diehard Rays fan before they blew up. When I met him and saw him getting all excited about this shit team I was all !!!

Am I the only one who thought they could do it? Normally being down 3-1 in a series would make me nervous but not with the Red Sox, not anymore. If there's any team that can come back in the ALCS it's the Red Sox. Looking back they can't win the ALCS without facing elimination first.
I was saying it the whole game, "I will never count this team out until the last pitch is thrown, not the Red Sox."
I believe.

When I root for a team it's for the players not the fans or owners or anything else.
The Rays remind me of some of my old teams when I was still playing in high school...young, underrated, etc.

I understand what your saying, but every team that does well gets more fans. And when they do bad they lose fans. The Rays haven't been around a long time in terms of baseball and really haven't had time to build their fan base. They are still the smallest market team in the league.
