1. Bastards! Think taking 'Devil' out of their name made it possible for the 'Rays' to win?

3. Yeah, the bastards!
Tough game to sit through last night...you knew the Rays would back into the title, though, but it still kind of is a downer, EVEN if the Sox really didn't try.

But congrats to the Rays, now on to the play-offs!

4. What is it with these MLB teams in Florida coming out of
nowhere every so often with their amazingly low payroll numbers and crappy attendance (can you say Marlins) and winning it all?!

I know they haven't done it yet, but good for the Rays winning a tough AL East! What a story. :bounce:

6. No Pressure. Young Players Can Develop Without The Media and Fans
beating on them.

When you struggle for the Marlins or Rays, 4,000 people notice or care.

When you struggle for the Yankees or Red Sox, 4 million people call your mother a nasty name.
