I am happy to report that the Dodgers were eliminated from the post season Wednesday night.  Now I am not a Phillies fan not by any means.  I am however a huge Dodger hater.  In fact pretty much any team from LA is not very high on my list of likable teams.  Give me teams from the San Francisco Bay Area any day.  It is that whole Northern California V. Southern California thing I guess.  So since my team did not make it I had to root for whoever was playing the Dodgers.

Now let us hope that the second half of the puzzle is solved tomorrow night with the Tampa Bay Rays beating the Boston Red Sox.  Again not a Rays fan or a Sox fan but you have to cheer for the under dog here.  I mean the Rays beating out the Yankees and the Sox to win the Division was great for sure, but making it to the World Series would just be awesome.  Plus I am really tired of ESPN’s love affair with the Sox and Yankees and the Sox have been on top for awhile.

So here is to the Phillies for beating the hated Dodgers and to the Rays hoping they clinch.  Now this will most definately piss off the officials at Fox as they don’t think Philly V. Tampa Bay is not the ideal match-up for rating, but screw those guys let’s have some good baseball.
