I'm Keith, and let me just say this first: I am a diehard Cubs fan and have been so since the day I was born. I live and die with the club, and although I often feel like watching or listening to the Cubs play is going to cause me an early heart-related death at the age of 30, I love 'em all the same.

BUT. I've always felt for the (Devil) Rays. I've experienced a few bad years of my own here in Chicago (cough, 1997, 1999, 2000, 2006, cough), and while they weren't quite as bad as some of the DRays seasons, losing sucks. So I'm happy for all the Rays fans here and across the country, because this is a good team (obviously; it's hard to sweep the Cubs!) and I think that while another bat would definitely help the team out, it's definitely a solid squad. I've been lurking around DRB for a while now, and I figured it was high time to sign up. So here's to success in 2008 and beyond, except against the Cubs! And hopefully I'll remember to get tickets when the Rays are down at the Cell playing the White Sox next month.

Oh, and I really don't like the Sawx and the Yankees, not to mention the Marlins (cough, 2003, cough). And sorry if this was kind of a mess of a post, it's 2 AM and I'm fighting sleep for God knows what reason...
