			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Often I will sit down and start composing my thoughts while I’m watching a game. I write about it as I see it, while the emotions and feelings are fresh. I do this for time also, so that I can get the information on the site as quickly as possible. Last night was one of those times where what I started writing was nothing like what ended up on the site. Thank Goodness! In a couple of innings the Rays took everything I had been working on and made it worthless. What is featured here is what was rendered meaningless by the tenacity and spirit of the Rays to battle back and overcome all odds. It captures the despair and desperation that Rays’ fans were feeling before one of the greatest comebacks of all time turned that despair into unadulterated jubilation. &#8230; [<a href="http://rayscoloredglasses.com/2011/09/29/the-post-that-never-was/">visit site to read more</a>]</p>

Reportedly they had a trade in place for Harden, but were scared off by his medical reports.</p>
<p>Bedard no-doubt knew about the rumors as he took the mound last Friday night against the Rays. Bedard is legendary for his some-what odd personality. <a href="http://bostonherald.com/sports/columnists/view.bg?articleid=1355698">As Gerry Callahan noted</a> in yesterday&#8217;s Boston Globe:</p>
<blockquote><p>Bedard doesn’t like the media. He doesn’t like crowds. He doesn’t like attention. He doesn’t like day games. Some people wonder if he even likes baseball. &#8230; [<a href="http://rayscoloredglasses.com/2011/08/03/did-erik-bedard-intentionally-lose-to-the-rays/">visit site to read more</a>]</p>
