Rays!!!!

[Iluv2hunt]

I thought we were done. I fell asleep in the 8th inning, right before the biggest comeback in history. What a shock waking up this morning and seeing we clinched.

It made my morning seeing Red Sux nation crumble. Even if the Rays don't win a game, the fact of the Sux watching the playoffs on their TV's makes me happy. Carl Crawford should be paraded thru town with a pink clown suit on

A big thank you to the Orioles for not laying down in a meaningless game for them and playing their hearts out

GO RAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We were there till the end of the 7th with some boys from the church. We left and on my way back my wife told me they were tied I stayed up till they won.

I'm confused, who do you hate more the red sux or the yankmees? I'm no big sports nut anymore but thought there was good sportsmanship shown by the compliments each team gave the other (rays/yankees). congrats Rays on a hard earned win and good luck in the playoffs. Yankee fan by birth and rooter for the underdog.

Hell yeah GO RAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's not the players Nacho,at least not most of them it the fans. Boston and New York have some of the most hateful crowds in baseball.I think the Rays total salary is like 40 million,Yankmees close to 180 million,Boston Batwangers around 150 million. I am proud of our team,they played their hearts out and came back from defeat. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO RAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Go Rays!

yes the Yankees and Sox have a rivalry going back forever and to a point thats a good thing. as for rude fans I couldn't say, there are pretty obnoxious fans found everywhere even here. obnoxious drunk idiots are a pia wherever you find them, nothing as bad here as the football (soccer) fans in Europe, Mexico and South America. salary spent is just the american way. those teams that can afford to spend more will, so would the Rays if they had it to spend. they do very well for what they have to work with. were not living in a communist/socialist state that would regulate how much money each team can spend. I think the Yanks showed a lot of class when Jeeter said we thought we had it in the bag and the Rays just wanted it more and played a great game, and the Rays in turn gave credit to the Yanks, good sportsmanship on both sides. I just hate it when a team blames the other for playing well instead of blaming themselves for playing poorly. I wouldn't want to be Bucky Dent walking around south Boston with a yankee hat on. Raider fans have been known to be a little rude also.

they showed actual salary, and you were close.....yankees 204 mill and rays 42 mill....yankees pay big money for roided up players and rays get the young guys with good talent through the minors and their just as good if not better, money isnt everything and thats why I hate yankees and boston......oh yea go RAYYYSS!!

don't hate the playa. like you or I would say no to a multi million contract, I think not. when there are only maybe a handfull of people in the world that can play at that level and careers could end at any second with an injury, they'd be foolish not to take the money. believe me if the owners weren't making much more than that off the players they wouldn't be paying them it. if the Rays had 204 mil to spend on their team they would also. is it fair? NO, but who said the world was fair, thats just the way it is. if all teams had exactly the same amount to spend on players there would be no excitement,spirit or challenge imo. about the roids it's even in H.S. sports. these guys and women will do anything to stay on top of and in their game at just about all levels. it's not just the super rich stars taking them.
