I thought for sure this would be an automatic sticky.

Must be some sort of anti-Tampa Bay Rays conspiracy...smile

I'm a Sox fan, but I am glad the Rays won - they deserved it, and it's much better for baseball as a whole. Classy group of young players.

This makes 8 different teams to play in the World Series in the last 4 years, and 12 in the last 7.

It's not better for FOX(not that I care). You know those suits wanted Boston instead of Tampa. Red Sox would have meant higher ratings.

Welllll, it was named the "World Series" back when the only place it was played was in America.

Kind of like naming something the "World Cup" before America ever played in it.

Drat! The USA DID play in the first World Cup. We beat Belgium 3 - 0 in the first game ever! (Held simultaneously with a France/Mexico match.)

But still, no one played baseball back in 1903 but Americans.

Oh, and it's baseball. I like that better than American football.

Hurray Tampa Bay Freaking Rays. They were even on the news HERE. So it must be something special.

Other countries qualify by sending their best players to the American teams. In return, the washed-up American players go play in other countries.

But that's no pool. That's an exchange program.

You must be thinking of the World Baseball Classic that will be played next year. Your country is in it.

It's not better for FOX(not that I care). You know those suits wanted Boston instead of Tampa. Red Sox would have meant higher ratings.



YUP!! You know they were PRAYING for a RedSox/Manny Ramirez matchup (the rest of the Dodgers would've been window dressing)....

....I'm just glad that, as defending champs, the Sox went out like gladiators...

Red Sox/Cubs would have been a ratings bonanza, too. Lot of history there. I don't see Tampa Bay/Philly pulling in the casual fan.
