You have no idea how happy I am.

Am I happy about the Tampa Bay Rays winning the AL pennant? No. I'm really not. What I am happy about, is that the Red Sox didn't win it. I really hate the Red Sox. I just really do. They really bother me, especially when I see them win. It drives me absolutely insane and it is probably because I am a really competitive person. I was so upset when they won the World Series last year. It's like...if it can't be the Yankees, then let it be any team but them!!! So lets just say that when Tampa Bay won game 7 of the ALCS on Sunday and eliminated the Red Sox, I was beyond happy. I was so happy I was laughing hysterically. Especially when they showed Josh Beckett's reaction to the last out. I wish I could find a picture of that. Another reason I am happy about it, is because I know that if the Red Sox made it to the WS, they would win it. They just would and and I would be really mad. Now they don't even get that chance. Ahhhh!!!!!! :) :) :)

That was a great series though. Gotta love baseball!!!! :)












Now for the Rays. Yes, I think it is a cool story. Worst to first blah blah. But now, how can I cheer for a team that was one of the reasons the Yanks missed the playoffs? A team that is going to give my team some serious division competition next year? I rooted for them in the ALCS simply because they were the lesser of two evils. So yeah....even though I am all for the American League, I just don't think I can root for them to win it all. And I will be honest, it is hard not to like those guys. They are a bunch of guys MY AGE that have overcome A LOT of odds and are actually a great baseball team. (obviously).

BUT.....

you won't see me jumping on that bandwagon.


GO PHILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!
