We are not sure why, but for some reason the above image sent us for a jolt. It was as if for the first time it really hit us that the Tampa Bay Rays sans Devil really won the AL East and are really going to play in the 2008 playoffs. Hank Steinbrenner must have lost his call for a recount.

Hank Steinbrenner is upset at baseball's divisional setup and how playoff teams are determined: [I]t isn't fair. You see it this season, with plenty of people in the media pointing out that Joe Torre and the Dodgers are going to the playoffs while we're not. This is by no means a knock on Torre - let me make that clear - but look at the division they're in. If L.A. were in the AL East, it wouldn't...
