St. Louis Cardinals: Rally Squirrel's 5 Early World Series Comments

It started in St. Louis, but now the whole country has gone nuts for Rally Squirrel this postseason. Rally's reputation is now as big as Texas. Bleacher Report pushed its way to the front of the line to talk to the furry sensation. Special thanks to Torty Craig for your help in gaining the following exclusive comments.

Exclusive Comments from Rally Squirrel

"Wow, it's great to be in the World Series. Like I told you, the Brewers had no idea what they were up against. Now, it's Texas—where everything is bigger, right? Sure, your state has Longhorns and SEC wannabes, but spoiler alert, this season ends the same way for Rangers' fans as it did last year—tears and tons of talk about tomorrow's team. Sorry, Nolan."

Mad Props and Robin Ventura Costumes for Halloween

"Before I rip into the Rangers, I must give mad props to the Ryan Express. No snark for you, sir. You're still in my all-time YouTube top 10. I watch you whipping Robin Ventura's ass over and over. Hee hee, what a clown, that guy. Good luck with that, White Sox. By the way, thanks for all of the Rally Squirrel costumes, T-shirts, theme songs and Megan Fox movie offers. I may have made that last one up." 

Dancing Ron

"As much as I love the Nolan video, I can't shake that Ron Washington part-moonwalk, part-jump around image out of my cranium. No worries, a Dancing Homer impression like that is sure to shake the mojo from Cruz's missiles.  It already happened to Hamilton. The 1970s called, Ron. KC & the Sunshine Band want those moves back. Don't call "Dancing With the Stars," they'll call you." 

Murphy's Law

"Murphy's Law says that anything that can go wrong, will go wrong—and at the worst possible moment.  In the immortal words of Spicoli:  Learn it, live it, love it, Rangers. Friendly advice, seriously—drop David Murphy from the postseason roster. Murphy's Law. Don't say you weren't warned. Get ready for fancy sliding from Josh Hamilton, pitchers with whiplash from Pujols pounds and another empty World Series trophy case. You are nice guys, but we know what happens to nice guys." 

St. Louis in Six

"Finally, many of you have been asking where I was hiding much of the last series. Yes, part of the time I was with my buds in Section 448. But, guess what? I was right there in front of you most of the time. You didn't see me on TV? You didn't catch my act on top of the dugout? Full disclosure, Fredbird let me hang out inside his costume. It gets a bit smelly in there, but people leave me alone and I can watch the game. How about Freese? We have more where that came from. St. Louis in six. Rally Squirrel, out."
