How much do you want to start a Texas Rangers 2009 thread next year?

You have to be an idiot to think the Rays are winning the wild card this year!

In all fairness, the sports radio hacks down here do say that EVERY year (either the wild card or the division). Eventually you'll be right I guess.

as a braves fan.. Ive attempted to bless them yearly.. my mojo hasnt been working on them as well lately though

rabbit77 · 10-01-08, 01:08 PM

It's ~~sad~~ awesome when a season long thread for one of the best teams in baseball this year gets fewer posts than other team threads can get in a day.

And over half of them aren't even serious.

I guess Rays fans are too old to know how to use DVD's.

twikoff · 10-01-08, 02:54 PM

16 of the 37 posts are me!

rabbit77 · 10-01-08, 03:53 PM

well yeah, but that's about the same ratio (twikoff:everyone else) when comparing all the posts here on DVDTalk.

PopcornTreeCt · 10-02-08, 09:32 PM

They won tonight!!

twikoff · 10-06-08, 09:44 PM

Rays knock off chicago in the ALDS and advance to the ALCS
1 step from the WS now

Rogue588 · 10-07-08, 02:12 AM

If they can knock out their opponent in the ALCS, you will have earned you DVD Talk title..

Rays vs. Red Sox in the ALCS. Congrats to the Rays and to Twikoff for blessing them. You should charge a "fee" as there are many Cubs fans who would love a similar blessing for 2009.

twikoff · 10-19-08, 11:44 PM

and now on to the world series

Rogue588 · 10-19-08, 11:53 PM

If you hadn't created this thread last year - no way anyone would have believed that you called it!

neo247 · 10-20-08, 01:03 AM

Were you one of the very few people who actually put a bet on the Rays to win it all before the start of the season? Some guy put down $50 and now he's $20,000 richer, and that was just so that they can make it to the WS. I forgot how much he gets if the win it all.

Da Thrilla · 10-20-08, 02:31 AM

twikoff = sports genius

VinVega · 10-20-08, 08:17 AM

They're going to the World Series. I can't believe it.

From the standpoint of where this team has been, it is a bit unbelievable, but if you have been following this team this year, this is no surprise. I have said since before the ASB that this team was the real deal. I have no doubt that they will win the championship. Whats more, they will be a team to watch out for for a while.

The AL East just got more interesting.

El Scorcho · 10-20-08, 09:39 AM

"for a while" = 2-3 years

at which point they'll be on the yankees, angels, red sox, and mets rosters
