From Worst to First

I came across the following quote from Orville Wright:

    No Flying Machine will ever fly from New York to Paris.

This makes me think of the many people in Florida who have said or at least thought the Rays would never be a good ball club.    They must be choking on those words now.   I saw in the news there is a Lady who is 90 years old and a very loyal fan of the Rays.  She has a few years on me but not more loyal than I am.   I was excited at the first mention of building a Stadium and having a Ball Team.   My Son-in-Law took me to the first game.  What a thrill that was even though we did not win. 

Orville could not fly the plane from New York to Paris and the Devil Rays could not make first place until some changes were made.

Changing Owners and finding the right Manager has brought my team from worst to first.  As I watched the game last night between the Rays and the Red Sox I was thinking these two teams are equally as good.   Boston has veteran players that know  the game from start to finish and the Rays have all young men just learning the game  but they have so much energy and spirit that is why these two teams have been chasing one another for first place.   Happy to say the Rays are at this moment two games ahead of  Boston. 

Hope you all will tune in and watch the Rays you will be glad you did.

Happy 4th of July. 

Love and prayers from here to there
