Rays are 1st place so far, but no support from fans

So far the Tampa Bay Rays have been 1st place this whole season and been playing some good games but their fans won’t support them. It’s just confusing, where are the rays getting their encouragement? Would encouragement make you play better and with out cheers the rays can still play just fine. The rays are continuing their streak with going on ahead with no fan support.

Bottom of the 20th

When I was watching t.v. late at night yesterday, I happened to be flipping the channels at I saw the 10 o’clock news but it wasn’t the news that was on, it was a long overtime baseball game between the New York Mets and the St. Louis Cardinals. It was bottom of the 16th inning and I notice it was a tie game, 0 – 0.

It just so happened to catch my attention of watching a late overtime game and seeing that the game time was a whole 6 hours and a half before it ended. While I was watching the announcers had told us 3 things you could do in under 3 hours, fly from Miami to Seattle, cook a 12 – 18 lbs turkey, and watch the 6 last episodes of 24.

The game finally got a score in the 19th inning one for each team and then in the 20th, the Mets score again and win the game it was a long game, sort of like 3 games for the price of one!

Baseball Game

Today when I went to a baseball game here in St. Petersburg, FL, I was at the Tropicana Stadium and the home team was the Rays playing against the away team, the Orioles. It was the top of the 2nd inning and one of the Orioles was up at bat. The Rays pitcher throws the ball and the batter hits a home run along the 3rd baseline.

We all know people try to get a home run ball after it’s hit for a souvenir, well this one person gets the ball and everyone around them was shouting “Throw the ball back!”  After a moment’s quick hesitation, they threw the ball back onto the field. Right at that moment, people around the stadium were cheering for their “Heroic actions” one could say.

Why wait until Half time?

With Super Bowl XLIV a little over a week away, the talk isn’t usually about who is playing or the artist performing at the  mini concert at halftime, no the buzz on the streets is usually about…..wait…..commercials!

Yes the only time people look forward to watching television commercials. Why? Well let’s just say if life really did imitate art, then some of these Super  Bowl Videos would be everybody’s dreams (at least one of mine).

Don’t get me wrong, this years Super Bowl should prove to be one of the best games in Super Bowl history. Two top seeded teams, both with dome fields for home stadiums and high powered offenses. I for one am looking forward to watching a great game. But the commercials will be on my viewing list too. I’ll just have to make sure to use the little coaches room before the game!
