feel like I post this every 6 months

As Rays search expands, Hillsborough offers a mixed bag of stadium options

Hope they have a solution soon. Decent young team but poor fan support.

For a second I thought I was losing my mind, then I remembered that they Rays are technically in St. Petersberg.

Pointless comparison, using google maps (I think it uses city hall):

"Tampa, FL" ----> Tropicana Field = 23 miles
"Los Angeles, CA" ----> Angel Stadium = 29 miles

Dodger Stadium to Angel Stadium is 31 miles.

While we're here, I just wanna say that I can't stand them being called the Los Angeles Angels and I've never met an Angels fan who felt differently. Everyone wants them to be called Anaheim Angels or some variation of California / Southern California / The OC / etc.
