Along with having to see Dick Vitale thrash around for four more games, hearing more stories of retired ladies in the Tampa area getting Mohawks and the potential of Johnny Gomes drinking more beer out of his jock, here's reason number 1,547 as to why Tampa Bay should not be in the World Series (which will the lowest-rated and least cared about World Series in a long time).
Singing the National Anthem for Game 1 in Tampa, I present to you the BackDoor Boys.
Does that mean N'Suck will sing the anthem before Game 2?
Will Philly follow Tampa's example and go with Boyz to Men in Game 3 and DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince for Game 4?
If Boston had won the AL Pennant, they could have broke out the Bobby Brown-led version of New Edition and had NKOTB rock out for Game 2.
In reflecting back as to why Boston couldn't have pulled off another miracle series comeback against Tampa Bay, it wasn't because Tampa was the younger, healthier, more athletic team.
The real reason that Boston lost - there wasn't a signature Dropkick Murphy's song to go along with this season. Think about it, in 2004 there was 'Tessie' and in 2007 there was 'Shipping up to Boston'. What do you instantly thinking of when you hear Tessie - the 2004 Red Sox. The same goes with Shipping up to Boston and the 2007 Red Sox.
The Dropkick Murphy (as Mayor Menino likes to refer to them) need to get on this for the 2009 season.
