    YESS!!!! After back to back years of last place baseball, we are finally playing at the end of October.


    I think the Rays defintely have a much better rotation than the phillies, except they have Brad Lidge. I think the wild card for the phillies is Jimmy Rollins, he hasnt had a very good postseason .

    That was a fucking awesome game. Congrats to the Rays and their fans. I'm always happy to see an up and coming team like that do well.

    You should change your name to Chase Utley while you're at it.

    My buddy put $60 bucks on them at the beginning of the year to win it all at....100-1!!! Do the math.

    He also picked the Marlins the year they won it at 50-1!

    Wow thts what I should have done.. I did something similar before the start of the season, I was telling my buddy how good the rays were going to be this year because I follow the minor league rays farm system as well and he disagreed so we bet $50, and since the Rays finished higher than 4th in the division I won.

    Yup, just because I have a Phillies avatar/sig now, I've fully converted to being a Phillies fan. I'm not just rooting for them to beat the Rays in the WS.



    I mean... really?

    I called it in their first game against the Blue Jays as a joke and it came true.

    This is going to be one of the best MLB WS of all-time. I have no negative comments to make about the Rays despite the fact that they knocked my White Sox out of competition. The Rays have deserved the title more then my team from the beginning and I'm certain that they will win it all.
