When I started the ole' Modern Gal blog, I pledged to talk more about sports, because that's what modern gals do: they talk about sports and shopping without skipping a beat.
Well, I haven't done well in that goal lately because I've been a bit lazy about my sportswatching. No more.
Modern gals and guys, I share this baseball clip with you not because it's any fine piece of videography but because it's a sign of the apocalypse.
That would be four minutes and 18 seconds of screaming. And poor camera work.
In case you don't recognize this team, it's the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, and it's the first time the team, which usually finishes in the basement behind the Yanks and Red Sox has EVER been in first place in the AL East. I gather they just reached eight games over .500 for the first time in history too at the expense of my precious Cardinals.
The team's 24 fans, of which my aunt who lives in St. Pete, Fla., is one, will tell you the success was all in the shedding of the 'Devil' from the name. What those fans didn't realize is they've incurred the wrath of Mephistopheles himself, who is now bringing about the end of the world.

I used to date a Devil Rays fan, but it didn't work out when he moved an hour away.
Our local minor league team is the farm team for Tampa. Maybe that means there's hope for them, too!
Noelle: What on earth was a Devil Rays fan doing in your neck of the woods?
