Gratuitous Post Game-1 Question

Forgive me for not having paid more attention to them all these years (although I've had no particular reason to do so), but how long have Tampa Bay been calling themselves just the Rays instead of the Devil Rays?

Sheesh.

Oh and btw, it's complicated but owing to the request of regular reader Mink Monica, I hereby am suspending whatever cursory powers I have against the Phils' winning the Series. Go for it, guys, and win one for the N.L. East!

Yips! from Mets Fan Gary:
Sorry, Robbo. I think I speak for a lot more N.L. East fans when I say...

...F Philly!

Woo-hoo! Thankee. Just remember who was elected shortly after the LAST Phillies World Series win.

Oh, being from nearish Tampa...I believe the Rays have been the Rays for almost one season now. You are not too far behind.

Since the start of this year. But I still call them the Devil Rays. Though as they knocked off the Boston nine, they are good eggs in my book.
