Rays Punch The Bully Right In The Nose
Updates will be limited over the next day or two. Mrs. Professor seems to think I need to hang out with friends and family just because they came all this way for some silly ceremony.
DEVIL RAYS WEBTOPIA...

The local news/talk radio station had a poll up on their website all day yesterday through this morning that asked "Which team is a bigger threat to the Red Sox: Rays or Yankees?". Final results this morning were Rays 68%, Yankees 32%. The poll was put up yesterday morning before last night's game.
If you want a good read, go to the debate article on ESPN by Jayson Stark. Every Rays supporter seems to be well-spoken and constantly makes good points. Meanwhile, Red Sox fans throw out false information and ridiculous comments. Stark does a great job of setting them straight.
The best record in baseball is a lot different than the best team in baseball. It's important to show class and "act like you've been there before." Nothing matters until the end of September.
I suppose that red sox fans for the last 4 years have acted "like they have been there before"?
if there was ever a fanbase that acted with less class, I don't know it.
Red Sox fans acting with class? I'll have some of whatever anonymous 6:43 is on.
