i came in third

i cannot help but wonder what has happened in the universe of sports this year. Anyone else noticing the crazy stuff going on? Last night just topped it off. I was just as shocked as anyone else hearing (cause i rarely watch the regular season) that the #1 team in baseball this year was the Tampa Bay Rays. Where did these guys come from? They were the bottom of the pile last year and now all of the sudden they are going to the world series with a legitimate shot at winning it all? And that is just the cherry on top of an already large surprise cake. The Dallas Cowboys who have been picked by many people to win the superbowl prior to them losing 3 out of the last 4 games; Last season the New Orlean Hornets having the best record in the NBA; The Yankees not making the playoffs; The Patriots losing (which, honestly i am happy about. not necessarily Brady's injury; although i don't like him at all i never wish bad things on people); I am even sure i could come up with something about hockey even though i hate hockey.


So all that said, what is going on? Anyone have any clues? I sure don't!!
