We are 4 games into this year's World Series, and I'm still waiting for somebody to sing a decent version of of the National Anthem. The Rays brought in the star power of the Backstreet Boys and Los Lonely Boys to sing the anthem for games 1 and 2, respectively. BSB embarrassed themselves, pretty much ending any shot they had at a comeback. Los Lonely Boys were forgettable, at best. After seeing consecutive pre-game train wrecks in Tampa, the series moved to Philly, a town with a music rich tradition. The Phillys countered the Backstreet Boys with hometown girl/music superstar Taylor Swift. Try as she might (e.g. rhinestone covered guitar and terrible vocals), she couldn't seem to embarrass herself as much as the BSB did. The game is about to start, so I'm going to cut this post short. Just know that the legendary Patti Labelle stepped up to the mic and absolutely butchered the National anthem, probably the worst rendition thus far. Go Rays.
