I agree that they are for real, especially at home. <BR/><BR/>The weird part is that despite all the bullshit between the Rays and the Sox (I wish we'd plunk a few of them just to remind them who the fucking real franchise is) I still think that even if they knock out the sox I would end up rooting for this team in subsequent series'. It makes for a more interesting AL east and they sure as hell ain't the Yanks.Thomas Leonardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11589259674340627535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2022434008227965275.post-81898891499346695822008-09-16T23:32:00.000-04:002008-09-16T23:32:00.000-04:00Tough loss.

Tomorrow's game becomes very important.<BR/><BR/>One thing I must say, this was a great game played by both teams. Entertaining to watch given the budding rivalry. A nice change from the normal NY/Boston hatred.DVicinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17349023854997580163noreply@blogger.com
