I'll be the first to admit it. I'm a bandwagon Rays fan. But, my bandwagon jumping started early in the year when the Rays jumped out to a lead in the AL East. In a division where there are payrolls that are out of control (the New York Yankees spent over $218 million in 2007, and Boston spent $133 million) it was nice to see the Tampa Rays with a payroll of $43 million defeat these big dollar spenders with ease this season. There are only 10 players on the roster who make more than $1 million per year for Tampa. They just seem like a team easy to root for, especially since this is the first time in history they have made the playoffs, let alone the World Series.
A couple of these games I've enjoyed over at Char's new place. It doesn't have furniture, and there were a few "game breaks" to help her and her roommate clean the house to prepare to move in, but it's been fun none the less. Last night, after a couple of us were sitting in front of the TV watching the game, there came some shrieks from the back of the house. It would appear that one of the girls helping clean found a magazine in the bathroom. I think you know what kind of magazine I'm talking about. They wouldn't let me or my roommate get very close to it. Anyhow, they decided to keep it. Not sure why, but here is a house full of teachers at a Christian school (minus me, but I did coach soccer at one this year if that counts), who are keeping these magazines in their house. I wonder what their administration would say....
