October 20, 200817 yr yeah agreed. Thank goodness the Rays won or I wouldn't have had anyone to pull for. Pretty cool the Rays have done this though. Real testament to their front office.
October 20, 200817 yr It'll probably be a sweep, the phillies have beaten nobody, and much like the rockies last year they had a long layoff.
October 20, 200817 yr I'm gonna have to join the annoying Rays bandwagon for this series. :thumbdown Hopefully they kill the Phillies.
October 20, 200817 yr GO RAYS I love how the Sox fans up here are saying "screw the rays and their bandwagon fans" Old bandwagoners calling new bandwagoners bandwagoners. :confused
October 20, 200817 yr I'm going for the Phillies. I don't want another Florida team to have a Championship, we are supposed to be the kings of Florida baseball.
October 20, 200817 yr I would have been forced to root for the Phils if the Red Sox had won tonight. Thanksfully, now I won't. Screw the Red Sox. GO RAYS!!!
October 20, 200817 yr If the Sox had won, I wouldn't even have watched the Series. same here. i can't stand the red sox at all, and seeing the phillies win the world series wasn't a pleasing sight either. Obviously pulling the The Rays here. Should be a good series (7 games!). so you're suggesting the rays throw 2 games in the series...lol. rays will finish this in 5 games max. GO RAYS I love how the Sox fans up here are saying "screw the rays and their bandwagon fans" Old bandwagoners calling new bandwagoners bandwagoners. :confused and you wonder why nobody likes the red sox anymore. and the best part, fox is stuck with ratings poison with two ratings losers for their world series and them scrambling for stories. here's one: each of tampa bay's championship runs have involved philly with the bucs beating the eagles in the nfc championship game and the lighting beating the flyers in the eastern conference finals. if the rays beat the phillies in the world series, expect philly to have tampa bay envy for some time to come.
October 20, 200817 yr I would have been forced to root for the Phils if the Red Sox had won tonight. Thanksfully, now I won't. Screw the Red Sox. GO RAYS!!! You would have rooted for a division rival who the Marlins have to face every year just because you don't like the Red Sox whom they play once in a blue moon? Nice.

You would have rooted for a division rival who the Marlins have to face every year just because you don't like the Red Sox whom they play once in a blue moon? Nice. I'd eat glass before rooting for the Red Sox. Wah, wah, wah. Move on, you knew this. :thumbup PS: Did I not guarantee the Rays would win this? Oh yeah.
October 20, 200817 yr I think the majority of the country would rather watch Steve Harvey re-runs than a Phillies-Rays World Series. And Furcal Chick: Can you just announce that you are a Rays fan now? It's quite obvious lol
October 20, 200817 yr And Furcal Chick: Can you just announce that you are a Rays fan now? It's quite obvious lol She's changing her user name to "LongoriaChick" as we speak.
October 20, 200817 yr each of tampa bay's championship runs have involved philly with the bucs beating the eagles in the nfc championship game and the lighting beating the flyers in the eastern conference finals. Ronde Barber's pick-6 in the closing minutes of the NFC championship is one of my all time favorite moments in sports. Go RAYS!
October 20, 200817 yr This should be no problem for the Rays. The Red Sox are 10x the harder opponent than the Phillies. The Phils aint even that good. I'm mean I never feared playing them once this year. Yet, I did fear playing the Rays. Of course flukes do happen, like the Cardinals a few years back.

I'd eat glass before rooting for the Red Sox. Wah, wah, wah. Move on, you knew this. :thumbup Have you put any thought into how much more annoying Phillies fans would be if they win they World Series? Expect to hear crap like this: "We're the world champs! Duuurp! Your attendance sucks! Duuurp! I want another cheese steak! Duuurp! We smell like inside out ass! Duuurp!" To be fair, cheesestakes are the greatest culinary invention in the history of mankind, right above the coney.
October 20, 200817 yr yeah agreed. Thank goodness the Rays won or I wouldn't have had anyone to pull for. Pretty cool the Rays have done this though. Real testament to their front office. Eh, I would have pulled for Beckett...prior Marlin WS hero and all. Glad things worked out how I wanted them (I wanted Beckett to have a good outing in game 6 but the Rays to win the Series).
