A Cinderella story

Do you remember in October the World Series that had two of the most unlikely teams in it? do you remember what teams they were. To refresh your memory it was the Philadelphia Phillies and the Tampa Bay Rays. One of these teams has never been to the World Series let alone even making it over the .500 mark. Why was it such shock to the world. Because they did it with a small payroll of only 48 million dollars and than beating a team like the Redsox no less. But I believe the Rays and the Redsox have figured out the winning formula. Know don't get me wrong comparing the Redsox to the Rays is like comparing apples to oranges you just cant do it. my point is they do it with youth. They don't need a meat head that is on HGH to hit fifty home runs for them and will only play in 90-100 games. They need the youth that can give you 20-30 home runs a years and play 140-150 games a year. Know i know having a big bat helps especially in the playoffs but so does pitching and being a young pitcher. Take David Price for the Rays he was the number pick in the MLB draft and he almost single handily got the rays to the World Series. With the History of the Cardinals hanging in the balance of what is happening on Sunday. The Arizona have been statistically one of the worst franchises in the NFL since they have been in Chicago than St. Louis and than finally settling in Arizona. The Cardinals Last Championship was in 1947 not in the Super Bowl Era. Since their only championship they have really been irrelevant in the NFL. In the six-plus decades since winning the championship in 1947, the team has qualified for the playoffs only six times and has won only five playoff games, three of which were achieved during their on going run in the 2008-09 playoffs. Not a great stat to have going into this Super weekend. If they win than can history repeat itself and will it be another 67 years before another championship comes to Arizona. Its kind of nice when the underdog prevails from time to time.
