Really Matt? No better feeling?

During the post game press conference for the Phillies Dodgers game, the unlikely hero for the Phils let the cat out of the bag, or maybe the team out of the closet. Matt Stairs who drilled a pinch hit homer into the right field bleachers to put the Phillies up for good, had this to say...
"I try to hit home runs and that's it. It's worked. When you get that nice celebration coming into the dugout, when you're getting your ass hammered by guys, there's no better feeling than having that done."
Really no better feeling than having your old rusty sheriff star hammered? I can think of a few things that I think would feel better, but who am I to judge a grown man, who has made a living out of hitting homers and celebrating with his team after he rounds the bases. I do know one thing for certain, if I ever hit a home run and Stairs is on my team, I'm stopping at third.
