The Rays should move to Tampa it is a nice city where as ST. Pete is a dirty ghetto of a city

[krisglenda]

miss you akonori

[manblockproductions]

i agree with dk5388, i live in florida and i am a diehard phillies fan, however the rays are my second favorite team, in fact i went to the 08 homeopener between the rays and seattle... my dads truck got broken into and he said we are enver going to a rays game ever again unless the phillies play them in the world series, well it happened and i attended game 1 of the 08 world series

[fireballnc2]

Tampa Bay Rays - 2008 - From worst to first, 9 = 8...... Oh, what a season! We did not win the World Series, but we left a permanent mark on baseball. It looks like we are mixing and repeating for the 2010 season. Go Tampa Bay Rays!

[IBucketheadl]

how many champ did tampa bay have?

[bc1canty]

Haven't really looked back since.

[f22cool]

[xDeadMisfitsx]

[KIMxJUNGxIL]

@f22cool Atleast we can win a division with the Yankees AND Red Sox competing against us and you can't even beat the Nationals

[f22cool]

[krisglenda]

@f22cool 19-14 buddy

[f22cool]

@krisglenda an were 20-13 buddy hahahahaha

[LikeN01Else]

@pm2421 - No not exactly. I mean, I live near Tampa and spend my life at the Trop lol. But yeah your right, they deserve way more fans. But if you look at other ball parks, they have the same problem. They have like no one there either. So hey, at least we get more fans than others. Also, I heard the president of the Rays are moving the Rays to downtown Tampa instead of St. Petersberg. We'll definatly get more fans then because we'll have more people around Tampa than St. Petersburg.

[gentry3599]

it a great season this year go rays

[HiKat21]

I love this video...although it was a loss in the world series...I LOVED BEING APART OF THIS EPIC year... it may have taken a year longer...WE WILL BE IN IT THIS YEAR....GO RAYS 2010

[bobo10125]

this is great footage

[DRussellNCAA]

awsome vid

[diego1234999]

im going 2 opening day 2 day 2010!!!!

[Mr3Smileyy]

Rays are on fire so far this year

[MyCockIsNotForYou]

Fuck THE RED SOX , FUcK THE YANKEES, FUCK THE DODGERS,

RAYS ALL THE WAYY!!!!!

[diego1234999]

@MyCockIsNotForYou  i like the rays and the dodgers so fuck

[hcjhjh]

it was nice to finaly after the years of finishing last to have a winning season. but I think they went too fast. worst to first gets fans to expect too great of things. I dunno, since 1998 the Rays have been my team. so I can say that was the turning point of our history as a team.

[thewayyourecoil]

still have hope!

[musicrox1219]

I dont care if the Rays are 16 or 17 games back! i'm still a rays fan! so if ur not a rays fan, why the heck are u here? to trash them like there's no tomorrow. wow.... no life

[Airborn82194]

lol 11 game losing skid for the rays! come on O's extend the losing streak for the poor ole rays... RED SOX WINS THE WILD CARD!!! RANGERS SUCKS BALLZ!!!

[borucuaboy56]

haha da bosox got swept bu the.... WHAT??? ANGELS???? hahahaha

[Airborn82194]

no shit sherlock! I bet your a rays fans. Oh ya they missed the playoffs boohoo!!

[borucuaboy56]

well i am a rays fan lol, thats y im watchin this and sorry for startin this up =P

[juangon99]

hes right u have no life

[pman2421]

Its funny how "rays fans" didnt even come to support their team when they were 5 games back in the wild card. I guess the people at the trop are just tourists who want to catch a ballgame cause their is no one that really supports the rays. It is always fun to see a playoff game. I now realize that the trop was filled of tourists that just wanted to see a playoff baseball game and decided what the heck, might as well root for the home team at the game im at. GO SOX. Rays have fake fans

[thewayyourecoil]

Tampa sports usually stop caring when the teams start doing bad.

Same thing happened when the Bucs and Lightning were doing good.

[hockeylover17]

not true fans

[hockeylover17]

fuck you

[Bowzer1366]

You know it's amazing. Now that the Red Sox have won two world series in 91 years, their fans all of a suddon talk shit to everyone. You know what pman2421, go head and talk shit. you are just like the rest of the Red Sox fans that show up at the Trop. A bunch of abnoxious, annoying jackasses. Why don't you fuckers just stop coming here in the winter and stay up in Boston.

[pman2421]

A bunch of abnoxious, annoying jackasses? How bout more like when the red sox play against the devil rays, the majority of the fans at the stadium are red sox fans. Whyyy, maybe cause devil rays fans are fakes. Maybe not you. But the devil rays were winning the division in 07 and still, empty ballpark. Playoffs come, place is packed. Next year after being runner ups, place is a ghost town again even when you were a couple games out of the wild card in august.

[strongglory]

@pman2421 Redsox fans are annoying bunch of jackasses, just because we dont live and breathe a baseball game doesn't make up dichers....and its the Tampa Bay Rays not Devil rays you douche. Florida isn't a baseball state its a Football state for one....The only other team is the Marlins and they will sometimes have less attendance. So dont come on here questioning Rays Fans.

[pman2421]

@strongglory you forgot to put fans in quotes. Cause we all know rays "fans" notice the quotes, are not real

[strongglory]

@pman2421 Im a Fan so I must be real...Your just mad because u have a higher payroll then we do and we whooped ur ass right? Your team is filled with bitches with money thats it...We have the lowest payroll at least we are playing real baseball unlike ur old hags. Ur team is over. You come on here on a RAYS video to look to talk shit about ur losers. Do yourself a favor and shoot urself in the foot so u can wake up. The Rays are the New team in the east. Bye Bye Boston.

[pman2421]

@strongglory Rays should move to a real city where fans will actually show up. I mean, its a joke, the rays make it to the WS and the year after, the place is a ghost town, even when you guys were in a playoff race. Please, dont bother calling your self a fan, cause i know its not true. I gotta admit, when you guys got a crowd when you were in the playoffs, I though for a second that the rays may actually have fans. But, place is a ghost town the year after a WS run, sooo nope.

[strongglory]

@pman2421 Joke or not... the only reason your talking to me is because Boston Sux and you know it, they have one of the deepest pitching staff and they have one of the highest ERA. avgs. Just stop talking to me, you dont know me I have been a rays fan since they were garbage. You have no argument hear at all.....This is why Redsox fans are pathetic, yall look for something to fight about when you have no reason to fight lol. So like I said shoot urself in the foot and Cry somewhere else loser.

[pman2421]

@strongglory, Boston sux?? Is that the reason we got to the playoffs last year, and the rays didnt?

[strongglory]

@pman2421 Yes Boston Sux...And that is the reason why he beat you and went to the world series when we were the underdogs. How does it feel to be the underdogs now? Boston doesn't want to play the Rays no more after we whiped your faces in ur shit at Fenway...What ya need to do is Bulldoze that piece of shit down.

[pman2421]

@strongglory, actually, dumbass. Fenway gets sold out every game and is much better than that piece of crap stadium tropicana field. Boston sux huh? Is that why we have 2 WS this decade and the rays have none? Also, no fans show up at the troppp anyway, please dont bother calling yourself a fan, I know its bullshit.

[strongglory]

@pman2421 And did you know our payroll is the 2nd lowest in MLB and that we are only 13 years old? How old is Boston and how many Championships do they have in all of there years? Yankees own you basically; and for the rays we are Home grown we didn't buy our players from other teams so that's why. At least we went, nobody expected us to even go. And about the Stadium I agree but its better then playing in 30 degree weather while raining all the fucking time.

[strongglory]

@pman2421 and dude ur full of shit...I go the games when I can you probably liev off your parents money and can afford to go to redsox games. Whats a fan to you? having some fucking creepy Shrine in your bed room of old hag big "Pappi"? is that it? Just because I dont live and breathe the fucking game doesn't mean im not a fan I have been a Fan since they first started. Tampa Bay and Florida itself is not a baseball town. Know ur shit. Rays now Own Boston so get over it and pray you get talent.

[gillman47]

hey rays so called fans since your team is 16.5 games behind are you still filling the seats? i think not, band wagon mother fuckers, support your team win or lose, or stick with mickey fucking mouse

[hockeylover17]

fuck you, true rays fans stick with them. i agree on those posers, but the true fans show up to every game

[therealevanchu]

Not me since I live in California and an Rays fan.

[alexandnina1]

Front runners

[NateRego]

Bandwagoners!

[Dieheartraysfan]

Fan since 2003..... never gave up :) we should get back this year again!!!!

[taitcool]

03 04 and 05 carlos pena were on the tigers

[29sucks]

hey guys im not a band wagon fan i didnt know the rays did good. I became one in like july when i had no idea. and im not a band wagon fan

[LikeN01Else]

The Rays totally deserves all of their fans. I mean a team that has been in last place for so long! And finally they get the pride and recognation they deserve! I love you rays! FOREVER!!! ♥

[pman2421]

@LikeN01Else, I love it how the rays make it to the WS in 08 and yet no fans show up at the ballpark the next season, even when the rays were in a playoff race!! The rays deserve fans, however, the city of tampa doesnt deserve the rays. What a joke of a fanbase. Hopefully the rays will move to a state where fans will actually show up.

[LikeN01Else]

@pman2421 You may be right on that but I know one fan in Tampa that will always be cheering them on. and thats me :) So I'd be crushed if they moved to another state!

[Raysfan0411]

you didn't see any because every where you went whering rays stuff you'd get crap about it. now fans don't have to worry about it anymore

[Raysfan0411]

red sox lick ferret butt, go tampa bay, rays all the way!

[kayisoloveyoux4]

tampa bay rays, are my LIFE <3

favorite team, all around awesome.

and if i might add, longoria and BARTLETT are the hottest baseball players :P

[ashleybound]

Look until the Rays win a World Series (like the Red Sox have) then the tampa fans should be happy with their super bowl ring (by the way the pats have 3) and their stanley cup (the bruins have 5) . In other words Tampa Ray fans...dont get your hopes up

[wallyG67]

By the way take away three super bowls away from the Patriots because of spy gate and the Red Sox have won two world series titles in like 90 years and your Boston Bruins havent won the Stanley Cup since 1972... Lets give a hand clap for the Tampa Bay Rays and lets get are hopes up because the Rays are the new beasts in the Al East

[ashleybound]

Nice try but the Tampa Bay Rays, a good team I'll give them that, arent exactly the new "beasts" of the AL east. I hardly think you can take away all 3 super bwl rings because of 1 game. And The Nation has won more series than the Rays will ever hope to be in.

[wallyG67]

Dont give me that crap of your Red Sox winning more titles then the Rays would ever win youve guys have won TWO world series titles IN 90 YEARS you guys had one of the worst championship droughts in baseball history and you guys couldnt addmit that in those 90 years you all were a bunch of cry babies chockers blaming your championship drought on Babe Ruth... TAMPA BAY well never be a franchise that well go 90 years without a ring in fact we will win our first Chamionship this year GO RAYS

[ashleybound]

Yeah keep dreaming..the Red Sox have more class in their pinky fingers than the Rays will ever hope to have. The nation does NOT blame Babe ruth or some trumped up "curse" nor will we ever. Face it., the Rays, while a good team with Longoria and the rest, can never, and will never measure up to the Red Sox..Honestly, Tampa doesn't deserve a baseball team..and sure as hell dont deserve a hockey team..bandwagon jumpers

[wallyG67]

Wow Calling the Tampa Bay Rays fans a bunch of bandwagon jumpers bold move for the first time in franchise history we make the playoffs, win our divison ,have a winning record and we go to the world series for the first time in our short franchise history and in one season we do all that then we celebrate about it and now were a bunch of bandwagon jumpers and I thought the Boston Red Sox had class

[ashleybound]

Well Im just calling a spade a spade...where were all these"fans" when the rays were doing horrible? You see a real fan sticks with their teams, through the good and the bad. Ive been a boston fan since i was 6, and that includes , the celtics, bruins, patriots and yes the Sox. I just found it funny that all of the sudden after the Rays won the pennant, there all these rays fans coming out of the woodwork

[Raysfan0411]

i dont know about all the other fans but ive been a die hard fan even when the rays sucked

[Bowzer1366]

That makes two of us my friend. I have the green "Devil" Rays gear to prove it.

[wallyG67]

this fan cheered for the bucs when we wore the orange and white, the lightning before and after the stanley cup and i cheered for the devil rays and now the rays and where were the celtics fan before KG and Ray Allen, and those Pat fans before brady and those three super bowls and the Bruins fans after 72 and whats up with those Red Sox fans where were you guys during those 85 years and before those two world series titles... See Tampa is proud of its teams the Bucs, the Bolts and the Rays

[ashleybound]

Oh to answer your question...Remember that guy named...Larrry Bird? Or wait a sec..Bobby Orr? By the way and for the record I remember the pats when their record wasnt stellar. Dont EVEN talk about bandwagon fans.....where the hell the "diehard" rays fans before last year? Tampa has nothing but bandwagon jumpers, they dont even deserve any sports teams because they are fair weather fans

[wallyG67]

Oh ok its easy to say your a celtics fan when you guys have won 17 championships and when your football team has won 3 super bowls in 4 years or when your hockey team makes it to the playoffs every year and has won 5 chamionships also its easy to cheer for the Red Sox because of the history and them winning the the divison or the wild card every year... In Tampa we may not have the greatest team or the most championships but we do support our teams through the good and the bad Go Bolts,Rays,Bucs

[ashleybound]

Look Im not trying to sound like a bitch and I apoligize if I am sounding like one. The Rays are a great team and Joe is a great manager. It just seemed to me, that after their pennant win last year, thats when all these rays fans came out. I've rooted and will continue to do so, for my teams, in good times and bad, like you. Speaking of the bolts..what happend with Vinny Lecavilier? He doesnt seem to show the same intensity as he did as a rookie

[wallyG67]

Dont worry about it and by the way i thought Lecavlier played his best during 05-08 scoring 35,52,and 40 goals

[metfan381]

I herd that Evan Longoria was mexican

[Triumphit1]

Fuck the RedSox Fuck The Yankees Twinkies fuck the Tigers Fuck the Cubs, LETS GO WHITESOX!!!! oh yeah and the Rays better win their division cause i dun like the Redsox or Yankeess... GO WHITE SOX

[mrwii52]

i live in canada but rays r my FAV

[DixieRect6969]

[FLAtampagoon23]

[minnesotaguy1]

Tampa Bay flukes is right, lol, and I love the overreaction of the fans who reached for the foul ball, ROFL silly idiots, ur only going to anger the 10,000 other fans in attendance der der der

[milton456]

Once again, Tampa Bay Cheated! This Eva Longoria is on Steroids and so is that loser who stole 6 bases illegally. Just like the Yankees, The Rays Cheat! So as far as I am concerned, these 3 wins over the Red Sox don't count. So everybody put **** next to the Ray's Stats!

[123ricci123]

somebody is a little jealouse bitch

[ANH1978a]

They really should call themselves Tampa Bay Flukes

Thats all they are 1 great year and back to the scrap heap

10 and 15 as I type

Silly Rays fans... Championship baseball is for YANKEES

[ErikD71]

der der der

[thebeast623]

agreed they go to the world series and don't even win and they think there good

[Creativedonkey]

Rays have NEVER had a great attendance record. Even last year...

[spursdynasty4]

HAHA where's the vid that goes worst to first to worst? You rays fans are pathetic, back to 13,000 a game for you bandwagon bums.

[markvade23]

whos your favourite team?

they started the same way last year, and where were they at in October. thats right. Philadelphia.

you are just upset your team didnt make it. crybaby

[peace542]

GO RAYS

[dk5388]

Being from the city of brotherly love i will show love for you rays fans...u guys gave us a good fight in the world series and u were a great team to play agianst...sorry it didnt work out the way u wanted but it was time for Philadelphia...as much as i want a repeat if u guys go farther then us then i wish all the best of luck

[Creativedonkey]

You're the first nice Philly's fan I've seen yet!

Thanks, you guys played great too!

[dk5388]

well thank you...im just trying to be a good sport

[r0adkill4u]

I feel so proud to be a rays fan and to have supported them throughout 2007,2008 and this coming 2009 i will do the same...Go Rays

[Creativedonkey]

Go Rays!

Phillies fans, don't forget you won two World Series in over a hundred years.

Rays made it to the World Series after ten years.

[nickmatt2]

The Americans/ Red Sox made it in one!

[jjwoody55]

hahha goo phillies repeat baby

[jjwoody55]

goooooooooooooooooooooooooooo phillies  repeat world fucking champions

[RCmack]

Rays manger Joe Maddon isn't intimitated with all the Yankees new signings, C.C. Sabathia, A.J. Burnett, and Mark Teixiera. He says 'bring them on'.

I like Maddon's attitude. My prediction is the Rays will split their season series with the Yankees.

[dtpuresforlife]

i love st pete i live there i hope they dont move it out of st pete

[lxTylerPxl]

Go Rays and everybody that puts comments on here saying go Phillies you're a douchebag go watch a video about the Phillies winning the world series don't ruin our good times!

[TampaBayAutoNetwork]

Good times, good times.

[Issack18]

Im a big yanks fan but i wuz cheerin fo the rays they deserved it more than the phills and yanks

[hcjhjh]

lol, my lil bro says there's no such thing of a nice Yank fan. I told him there has to be a few.

[Issack18]

yea cuz not all of us r bad we just get caught up in the fact that we have 27err 26 world titles lol but im a fan of underdogs and the rays deserved it

[austinrays3]

rays rule the red sox sucks go rays!!!! and i bet all u people just say u like the rays, but i bet u don't u guys prob just like them cause there good. i have liked them even when they sucked. and im goin to the rays first home game this season go rays!!!!!

[blindmelon17]

Ryas rule, even though Philly canned us. Like the one guy said, beating Boston WAS our WS.

[BetMeImLyingBAND]

9 doesnt equal 8

9 is greater than 8

they will do better in 09 than in 08

[dtpuresforlife]

i saw the mayor rick baker go rays fan forever since 1st season!!!!

[lxTylerPxl]

I know the guy that wants to be mayor wants to move the rays out of St.Pete

[raysfan2]

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooo go rays!!!

[deloufu]

We may have gotten our clocks clean by Philly but you know something, the ALCS against the Red Soxs that was our World Seriers.

[provinground]

RED SOX vs RAYS 2008, ALCS = best series ever.

[baseballcubs25]
