The MLB post-season is starting today and, with my Rangers not in contention, it’s time for me to pick a team to cheer for.

Usually, when the Rangers aren’t in the playoffs, I support the Astros because they’re the other team for Texas.  This year, though, there’s too many hard feelings.  I could justify cheering for the Rangers if they got into the post-season with an 81-81 record but I just can’t do it for the Astros.

When I can’t cheer for either the Astros or the Rangers, I usually cheer for whatever team is representing the South in the playoffs.  This season, that would appear to be the Braves but the Braves are a National League team and I just can’t bring myself to support the NL.

So, who am I supporting this year?

Congratulations, Tampa Bay!  I hope I’ll be cheering for you all the way through the World Series!

Go Rays!
