Not that I want to think that far ahead

But I think we match up a LOT better against the Dodgers.

Vogt early, Vogt often.

I am being too obvious lately

As a baseball fan

I’d prefer to see Rays vs. Dodgers I think that would be a very exciting series. But I’d prefer to face the Phillies do their lack of depth in the pitching staff, but if we made it that far we’d be better than both teams.

This is awesome.

It still has not sunk in yet that the Rays are actually playing in the ALCS.

Just wanted to drop in and say

good luck!

Be patient, too. Dice-k… well, it’s Dice-k.

Well, I'll appreciate for you to keep my zingers outta your mouth!

I want Kershaw

I know, I know, we have too many pitchers but he throws 96 so easily and has a disgusting curve.

I want Price – Kazmir – Kershaw – Shields – Garza with Davis/Hellickson at CL !

Bottom 8th in that game

Can’t believe it will probably finish before the Ray game starts. That Bottom of the 3rd took like 45 minutes.

Wrap it up Rayailures

The rays have never won a playoff game vs the Sox.

It’s blowout time.

ALCS game makes me nervous

I am gonna go to the stadium and see if Kaz or JP got some extra weed on them.

I have the double TV going on here in High Point, NC

on one I have the Carolina Hurricanes taking out the lowely Panthers

while on the other I cant wait to see my Rays fuck up the Sox.

Go Rays. We are here in NC, mohawks rocking, supporting 100%.

Kick Ass.

nice to see the lineups

but the anticipation is the most nerve racking part, LETS GO!!!

oh and I am gonna say this BEFORE the game, you don’t HAVE to give up a 3 run homer to be successful, Shields!

GO RAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For what it's worth

For the over/under, I have the under at 8 runs.

Got the SHIELDS shirt ready. Let’s shut down the Dice.

He always makes me nervous when he pitches. He nibbles too damned much.

Quick questions

I am ordering a jersey very soon

1) I have 2 home jerseys, get a 3rd one, or go for a road one?
2) Price or Shields? I have cut it down to those 2

I have Kazmir and Longoria home jerseys so far

by joeybw on Oct 10, 2008 8:29 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I never get a jersey with a player's name on it.

They are always off the team within 6 months of purchase.

I thought of Garza and Upton

but neither is signed and with Garza’s insanity and Upton’s lack of contract make me worry

by joeybw on Oct 10, 2008 8:37 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Sounds good

I have Kaz and Longo

leaning very much towards to Shields as the 3rd

by joeybw on Oct 10, 2008 8:41 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I distinctly remember feeling the same way in 2004 when we got to the WS.

As a Rays fan, you should want a small zone

The way Dice-K nibbles, I’d prefer a large one.

Hi all

Angels fan checking in here.

I’ve been paying cursory attention to the Rays since Maddon came over here, but I’ve had to keep my enthusiasm down all season as the Halos competed with you guys for the best record. I know you’ve probably heard it a thousand times before, but the Rays really do remind of a certain team six years ago…Now that we’re out of the playoffs I can be an un-conflicted Rays fan!

Good luck!

Light Up That Halo!

thx

too bad for you guys not being able to make it

by sofladude77 on Oct 10, 2008 9:01 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yeah

But so it goes. I was going to be worried about facing you guys in the ALCS after the ease with which you put down the White Sox.

Hopefully no team with “Sox” in it will beat you guys…
