On the other side are details for tomorrow's Rangers Rally, scheduled for 6 p.m. outside the Ballpark in Arlington. Long story short: Chuck Greenberg, Nolan Ryan, Jon Daniels, Ron Washington and a few players will get together for an hour to remember the "magical" season that was. Because, see, that whole parade thing fell through.

On a related note, the teevee numbers for the 2010 World Series are in, and turns out earlier predictions about low ratings were spot on. As in: "Despite the historical impact of the five-game series, Fox posted the second-lowest deliveries in the history of the Fall Classic." Only Phillies-Rays in '08 posted worse numbers -- 13.6 million on average versus 14.3 million this go-round.

And, yup, that's country singer Neal McCoy at left. Sitting next to Nolan Ryan from National Anthem to final out, he was a big ol' hit last night -- oft-recognized, even in his ballcap and fake Rangers-tats tee, he was mighty gracious about posing for pics with fans. And the Jacksonville, Texas, native sure did like waving the state flag. See for yourself on the other side.
