10. The Rays Winning Game 2
Even though the Tampa Bay Rays didn’t go all the way, they were a great story. It was only right that they got to win Game 2 so their fans could celebrate one final time.

9. Brad Lidge Getting the Save
Brad Lidge has been labeled a choker. More specifically, a big game choker. But during the 2008 season, he was flawless. He completed all 48 of his save opportunities – including the final one to clinch the 2008 World Series.

8. Talking Baseball with your Friends
How fun was it to talk to your friends about baseball and get remarks such as “It’s the World Series?”, “You Still Watch Baseball?” and the always fun “!@#$ Baseball, That Sport is Boring!”

7. Ryan Howard Homers
Ryan Howard has been a feared slugger around the league. But his success in the World Series has now made him a certifiable beast. He’s well on his way to becoming one of the best sluggers of his generation.

6. The Rain Delay
The two-day rain delay might be the most lasting memory. We will likely never seen anything like it ever again. It was like someone pressed pause on a video game, forgot about it and then came back a couple days later.

5. Jaime Moyer be Successful
Apparently there is life after 45. Jaime Moyer proved that you can be up there in age and still compete at the highest level. True, pitching is hardly a contact sport – but hey, it’s something.

4. Not Having to Watch the Yankees or Red Sox
I think we can all agree on this one.

3. Philadelphia Celebrating
Philadelphia had waited a long time for this championship. For as much heartache as the Phillies, Flyers, Eagles and 76ers have caused over the years, that town deserves this.

2. Philly Fans Booing Bud Selig
You might think of cheesesteaks when you think of Philadelphia. I think of booing. Philadelphia is to booing as Las Vegas is to gambling. Philadelphia is to booing as San Francisco is to alternative lifestyles. Getting to listen to Bud Selig getting booed was a thrill.
