What Duncan did, was over the top with the spikes flying high. What they should have done is just throw some high heat at one of there better players, then that would have been it. Now they have taken this into the regular season. Funny to say, but Yankees-Rays has now become a rivalry at least for there first few games. Won't be when the Rays are 20 games out by June, but in April or May when they meet, it should be fun watching.
Hmmmm. Who would have thought?
