The WORLD Series: Philadelphia Phillies versus Tampa Bay Rays

but I just don’t know if it’ll happen.

but I will be routing my heart out against the Rays. I never, ever liked these guys, I mean of course I routed for them against the Red Sox, but Tampa Bay, but I mean sometimes you just have to route against the supremely shitty city that the Rays represent. Remember, they’re still our rivals, don’t fall in love with the Rays too much.

But the Phils will beat up Kaz to start off.

but I think the Rays probably will win

Maybe their most representative moment came when the club staged an Easter egg hunt one April for pre-school fans, dozens of whom were let out onto the field to find chocolate eggs “hidden” on top of the bases, the pitcher’s mound, along the base lines, etc.

When all the eggs had been found, the kids were asked over the PA system to come off the field. Those who had not found any eggs— the “losers” — were reluctant to leave, of course, and after doggedly searching a while longer eventually had to be led off together. Naturally, the Phillies fans booed them.

Now that’s cold.

I just want to finally see a victory parade in Philly.

Tampa’s got the starting pitching, but the bullpen is getting a little shaky. If Baltimore’s own Gabe Gross gets another handful of starts in this series, the Rays are in trouble. I also feel like Joe Maddon is bound to out-think himself.

The Rays aren’t the Tigers.

I’m rooting for the Evil Rays, because they’re like the little brother who you used to beat up all of the time, standing on their own and now fighting with the big boys.
