The Rays Fan Conundrum
Monday, May 11th, 2009As a Rays fan I am overcome with a variety of emotions this year. There is still a part of me that is amazed and thrilled that the Rays can and do repeatedly beat teams the likes of the Yankees and Red Sox. Then there is the part that knows how good this team should […]
Turn that frown upside down.

Okay I don’t know if Spring is in the air or what but that was so hot. Mister Garza was damn near perfect. The team really needed a charge and boy did he deliver. He even proved that Pedroia can’t hit the high inside fast ball. If only Jacoby Ellsbury wasn’t so bloody fast… Barty […]
If you see my face hope it gives you hell, hope it gives you hell…
Thursday, April 9th, 2009Think Dice-K got tired of seeing Longo today? Or did Garza’s face give Pedroia even more hell? Either way that was a sweet win today. Sweet I say!
The Rays won their first series, against the Red Sox, at Fenway, and I saw the game! Ironically the game started with a Knology commercial that spewed about us all being […]
Opening Day, feel the breeze…
Tuesday, April 7th, 2009Yeah there were a few swing and misses today. Beckett was dealing.
4, 5, 6, 7 = zero
Pena, Burrell, Joyce and Navarro
That makes it hard to get anything going.
At least they don’t have to wake up to cover stories about how much money they are costing the Rays everytime they suck.
Carl Crawford looked really good today. I’m hoping […]
I need to get over you. I’d appreciate if you’d let me try…
Wednesday, January 21st, 2009This…
is not helping. Really, was a kleenex inducing ad necessary? You look way too cute in the picture and what’s with all the niceness? This would be way easier if you would just say “later sucka.” Just go be with your new buds. You can dance with Papelbon, hunt with Beckett, use Pedroia’s head as an […]
Thank Goodness Sunday is a Day for Rest!
Sunday, October 12th, 2008Because that was exhausting! The post season is supposed to be all about pitching right? Not last night. It was like a study in opposites compared to the first game.
Kazmir had a painful start, giving up two runs in the first. Not the tone the Rays wanted to set, but you can’t count the Rays […]
Sox Slice and Dice the Rays in Game One
Saturday, October 11th, 2008You know what’s really annoying. When your team’s starting pitcher holds a power house offense like the Red Sox, only to have their pitcher be completely awesome on the same night. Ugh.
James Shields was great. He gave the Rays every opportunity to win that game. Dice K happened to be great too. The Rays had very […]
Can the Rays go thru a pair of Sox to get to the promised land?
Thursday, October 9th, 2008Doubting the Rays would be pretty foolish at this point in the season, but they definitely have a challenge ahead of them. They got past the White Sox, but can they wear out the Red Sox? It ain’t gonna be easy folks. The Rays are going to have to lay it all on the line. […]
Game 149 - Red Sox vs. Rays
Wednesday, September 17th, 2008Thank you Sonny.
Sorry for the late post, but sometimes real life gets in the way of blogging.
Andy Sonnanstine can hang with Josh Beckett folks. Who would’ve thunk. I for one think that is superb, since Josh seems so smug out there on the mound. Like he can hardly be bothered to even continue with these […]
Game 73 - Astros vs. Rays
Friday, June 20th, 2008The Astros were due to win one.
The Rays had a little bit of a post Cubs let down, and the Astros had to win one sometime. That’s how baseball rolls. Or it could be that I’m over analyzing things and justify the loss. Astros 4 - Rays 3.
Speaking of over-analyzing and justifying, according to the […]
