The Rays..can they survive?

Humidity? In Tropicana Field? It's a dome, dude. (Spring Training games in Al Lang could be a bit hot and sticky, though. God, I love that field. Too bad they're going to tear it down.)

Now, I must admit, I've been a Rays fan from the start. Didn't get to catch the very first game in person (my dad did, though), but my first Devil Rays game was the following Sunday, April 5. Remember it like it was yesterday, a 5-0 win over the White Sox. Back then, I thought Bobby Smith and Bubba Trammell would be huge players for the Rays in the future. Didn't pan out. But the current crop is much more exciting.

My biggest fear is a Cubs-Rays World Series. I'd be at a complete loss to decide whom to root for. Living in Chicago (and having my mom's Cub genes), it's difficult to root against the Cubs, but I did so for the three game interleague series earlier this year. (Granted, I was in Annapolis at the time, but who's counting?) But Chicago would be so much fun if the Cubs won it all. It's quite the quandary.
