Hello again friends!

It's the dog dayz of summer. It's been really hard to watch this team after being eviscerated by injury and it's continued history of being dominated by the starting pitching of just about everyone BUT as hardcore Jay fans we have to watch. It's our duty to support this team no matter how rough it gets because that's what we do. So how about you throw us a bone baseball Gods and give us Jose Bautista back? Maybe a win?

What can I tell you about these hated (nee)Devil Rays? They have our number and they kill us at Tropicana Field. At least we can take some solace in the fact that the Trop -the very stadium that helps them beats us is what consistently saves the Rogers Centre from being voted worst stadium in baseball. So it's not all bad!Let's get a win today and have some good comments in this thread. Remember to keep it civil, this isn't DJF after all. Don't give Tom a hard time, he's been through enough this year. If you want to post a .gif or an image, post a link to it only. Also don't be ridiculous and ask for an illegal stream, we're law abiding folk here.

Remember we as a community are more important then the results on the field. We could always turn this blog into a discussion site about books, University, food or cats...that's a worst case scenario.

Keep hope alive and GO JAYS GO!
