2012 Quarry Unlimited - #4 Tampa Bay Rays Part 1

Continuing my list of teams that no one else blogs about (or so it seems), we come to the Tampa Bay Rays at #4.  This team is an oddity on my list.  Before the 2008 Playoffs, if the Rays were contracted I would not have said a word in opposition.  I cared that little about them.  However, that 2008 season made me somewhat of a bandwagon fan that has stayed on board somewhat.  Unless you are a hardcore Phillies fan, how could you not have rooted for the Rays in the 2008 World Series?  There was very little about them that was unlikable.  Of course that was 4 years ago, but aside from the 2007 Rockies I don't think I have ever rooted for a Series team more.  I don't know if the Rays will maintain a high spot on my list or if they will slip down toward irrelevancy again, but I am sure that they will never fall into the "hated teams" category.

If I were a Rays fan...

2012 Tampa Bay Rays Total Cards = 44

I think I nailed the Rays on color.  Of the templates I had to create from scratch, I think I did the best job fitting into the scheme with the Rays.  What do you guys think of this group?

Thanx for reading.
