show host: "blah blah blah the Devil Rays have renamed themselves the Rays, and seem to be doing better this year without the help of their old sponsor."

announcer: "And now, for an opinion about the devil helping the team, we go to a priest from the Church of Satan..."

CoS priest: "blah blah blah Don't actually worship the Devil, but do greatly like professional sports including baseball because it's unvarnished competition between people to see who is the stronger..."

announcer: "And, for an opinion from the other side of the eternal divide, we ask a Lutheran minister from Seattle..."

lutheran minister: "presumably, having dropped the 'devil' from their team name, there will be no Faustian bargains available to them at the end of the season, which will remove that temptation."

I'm amazed that they managed to make it through this piece without referring to Damn Yankees. I was waiting for the interstitial to be "Whatever Lola Wants."

But, basically, Dear NPR/PRI/OBP, thank you for keeping it weird.
