We relish the role of the underdog. Being down 3-1 is only bad if we lose - but if we bring it back to NYC, and do the impossible - oh how sweet it would be to put that dagger in the heart. So much better than a sweep IMO. No – because unlike a team who prefers having no challengers (hence spending twice as much money as everyone else) we like our challenges here in Philly.

Monday we massaged that heart (must have felt like CPR) then crushed it. Wednesday's forecast calls for ripping that heart out and showing it to them. Yeah, it's 2:00am and I'm on a phantastic high, but that doesn't mean that every word isn't the truth. Brothers and Sisters, see you on Broad St. Sunday we punched through the Dodgers rib cage and grabbed their heart. Monday we massaged that heart (must have felt like CPR) then crushed it.
