Rays Season Has Hope

BOSTON — Maybe it wasn't really just the American League East’s bad dream. Maybe opening day's domination of the Tampa Bay Rays by Josh Beckett wasn't the end of the defending AL champions. On Wednesday, the cosmos again seemed out of sorts in dumpy Fenway Park, where the ill-informed and often obnoxious fans had to watch the Red Sox get dismissed by the Rays, 7-2, to effectively land a powerful counter-punch in the division race. What's worse is that Scott Kazmir looked good enough to crack the rotation of our beloved Sox, Carlos Pena no longer seems destined to strike out 600 times in the season, and that desperate housewife at 3rd (I can never remember her name because she doesn't play in Boston) shook off a couple double-plays to hit a ball into the historic seats of ol' Fenway. I guess the baseball world just isn't ready to go back to how it should be, where all anyone is interested in is the hated Yankees and our underdog, tiny payroll, loveable Pink Sox.

It's a mirror counter to that retarded opening to the article some Boston hack wrote after the Red Sox won the opener.
It sound equally retarded, which means GG TallMatt.
