    You guys aren't worried about the layoff the phils have had? I mean the rays just beat the defending champs and are riding high.

    layoff, pffft

    The Phillies have played 171 games and its all about getting to the World Series, If a week off takes away your readiness and you can't get pumped for the FREAKING WORLD SERIES, then you don't deserve to be there.

    The Phillies have waited 15 years to get back, a week is meaningless.

    Dawg love the passion, but the past world series have not lied. The tigers were hungry as well with a manager that won a ring, but they failed. The rockies made an unbelieveable run to get to the teams first WS but again failed because of the time off.

    you can look at it like this, the Rays have run the gamut of emotions from being labled winners to chokers, to winners again. They have spent so much emotion just getting to the teams' first world series, they are young and will almost certainly feel the pressure of being in a WORLD SERIES

    there are so many angles that you could analyze it from, but you can be assured that both teams will be ready and the best team will win


    the rockies were also a crapty team that got hot late and faced a juggernaut, comparing the teams is ridiculous, we have the best bullpen in the league, leading HR, and RBI. We were not a crap team that got hot and made it as a wildcard, we won our division and proved to be winners all year. detroits pitching sucked and they choked in the big games, the Phillies have won the big games all year and are 85-0 when leading in the 8th inning.

    Rays will win the series - they have deeper starting pitching and a better bullpen overall...

    Shields, Kaz, Sonny, Garza, Price, Balfour, etc. > Hamels, Myers, Moyer, Blanton, Lidge

    it should be a competitive series, but after watching the rays almost choke to an extremely over rated bosox team, there is no way you can guarantee victory unless you are just injecting your homerism

    its easy to make ur team look better, when you make it look like the phillie are out numbered 6-5
