Exclusive Comments from Rally Squirrel

"First of all, message to the main—I don't even like peanut butter.  And Philadelphia fans, why don't you go watch the Dream Team?  You were looking for me all night, but you couldn't find me.  It was kind of like those runs you tried to score on Carp.

"City of Brotherly Love, my nuts.  Milwaukee, you think you're a beer town, but the king of beers is coming."

Don't Fear the Beard

"Sure, I'd Like to burrow into Big Teddy Bear's Santa Claus bristles, but we don't fear him--or any of the Brew Crew.  Yeah, we saw you guys dropping F-bombs on the postgame.  Stay classy, Milwaukee.  That's so 1982."

We'd Rather Have Brains Than Braun

"That playoff stubble is cute and all, Ryan, but Berkman owns the copyright.  You guys may have a pair of kings, but St. Louis has a full house, baby!"

Carpe Diem

"You counted us out when Wainwright went down.  You distracted us with your Pujols speculation.  You buried us when we dropped back in your rearview mirror. 

"You think it's almost midnight for Cinderella.  We're not the biggest animal in the fight.  But don't ever underestimate the power of a squirrel trying to get a nut!  See you in Milwaukee.  St. Louis in six."
