The idea at the beginning was 9=8, TB's manager's idea that nine players translate into one of eight playoff slots. Well, it looked like the Rays would choke at the cusp of the promised land, but they only showed their toughness by
winning it in 7. Meanwhile, the Giants beat the lesser team after a slow start, the Jets went to OT (Brett style), but lost it on a longggg field goal against even less credible opponent. Not that the Giants should be too comfortable -- got some tougher games coming up, and they need to play better.
