Go Rays!

I'm not going to jinx it and say that Tampa Bay is going to the World Series yet, because the game isn't quite over yet. But it looks very promising, they have a 7-0 lead in the 7th inning. So things are looking good for them.

Now, I'm not a big baseball fan. In fact this is the first baseball game I've watched all season. But I love the story that the Tampa Bay Rays are writing themselves. The team with the worst record in the entire MLB last season has turned it around and has a chance to be on top of the America League, and maybe even the whole Majors. I mean come one. That's a great story. And they're doing it with the lowest budget in all of baseball. To give you an idea the New York Yankees have a salary of over $200 million. The Tampa Bay Rays are doing with less than $45 million. And the Yankees didn't even make the playoffs this year.

It just goes to show that it doesn't matter if you have the best players in the game, or some of the worst. As long as the leader of the team can get everyone on the same page, working together, working towards a similar goal, and believing in the same ideals then you've got all you need. It doesn't matter if you have the fastest car if the alignment is jacked up. All the wheels have to be moving in the same direction or you'll have a really hard time getting where you want to go.

So good luck Rays. And congratulations on the greatest turn around in history.
