RAAAAYYSS!

Yea, no Boston Red Sox in the playoffs.

Good luck to the Phils and Rays, I'll be rooting for a good world series.

May the best team win.

FUCK YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Boston lost!!!!!! Good Job Rays, way to beat the Red Sux! This will, hopefully be a good series. Nothing against the Phillies, but i'm going with the Rays, just for the fact that they took the Sux out. Great job!

The Rays could very easily have collapsed under the weight of the gorilla under their backs coming into this game, but they responded extraordinarily well for such a young team. Once again, the complete lack of hitting in high-lev situation kills the Sox just as it has all season. Congrats to the Rays, and if you thought they were good this year, just wait until next - Price is an absolute beast, and one of the only players I can recall who is living up to the hype as #1 overall prospect. He has a great head on his shoulders. A full year of him starting just won't be fair to everyone else.

I have to say, though, It's absolutely hilarious seeing all the pink-hat Rays fans crawl out of the woodwork now. They were nowhere to be seen the rest of year while the Rays were excelling (even in August-September, they only had 15-18 thousand in some of their home games... against the Angels, no less!) Come the playoffs they crawl like lemmings, and even then, need phony prop noisemakers and "MAKE SOME NOISE! STOMP STOMP!" messages in the stadium to actually get into the game. I'm sure other fans in big sports towns will join me in saying Shame On You. You absolutely don't deserve the success this team is having.

Matt Garza is a great pitcher, but I still hate him. He wears his hat backwards/sideways like a tool and every time he opens his mouth he sounds like an asshole fratboy. I bet he wears a popped collar when out on the town.

Stinkdog - Judging by your tenor, you sound like a Yankees fan. Even if not, how did your favorite team do this year? I'll bet (in fact, am certain of) that they were on the links in Florida ahead of Boston. It shows a lot about you that the only sporting accomplishment you seem to take pleasure in is someone else's failure.

Not offended in the least, I've developed plenty thick skin over the years, believe me. Just thought it was ironic considering how the season played out.

Not that I'm usually a big sports guy, but incidentally, I am a long-time Rays fan (about since they formed - Tropicana is about a half hour drive from where my family usually vacations in the summer, and ever since I was about ten my family would always take me to a baseball game there... so I became a fan pretty early on) and I'd just like to say:

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I knew they could do it! Someday! Finally!

However, I would also like to make the following observation:

you all may want to start stocking up on food and ammo

Hope for a team like the Pirates?
But i was rooting for boston because that series would get better ratings, but whatever.
Rays deserve it. They have been good all year. And I am shocked they didn't lose. I thought boston had it.

YEAHHHHHHH!!!!!! GO RAYS!!!!
I live 20 minutes from the stadium and this is truly amazing. Made it even better that we beat the Red Sox at home because everyone here hates them because the fans are so rude, and coco crisp is a d-bag.
Dont count the rays out in the world series...
