Congrats to the Tampa Bay Rays, who have just clinched their first ever playoff spot.  Now fans just hope that the pressure of the postseason doesn’t get to the young team. 

It’s not that folks in the Tampa area aren’t used to being disappointed in October.  It’s just usually that it’s by the Buccaneers.

And apropos of nothing, the last time the New York Yankees missed the playoffs?   1993.   Five years before the Rays franchise was founded.

Nick Jonas of the Jonas Brothers celebrated his 16th birthday by renting out Dodger Stadium for a party.  Apparently the team offered him a half price deal to have his party the following day before Los Angeles played the San Francisco Giants.  But Jonas and his friends didn’t want to commit to vacating the premises for fans by the third inning.
