OT: The Toronto Blue Jays

[LeafOfFaith]

Haha, amusing, but nowhere near as good as the kid's tumultuous display of emotions.

Crazy to think that if we’d had Myles Straw and his 95th percentile sprint speed, available to pinch run for Bo instead of IKF…..that the Jays would be World Champs.

Usually I can brush off the losses, but this is going to hurt for a while. It was such a magical season and playoff run and we had it in our grasp. Absolutely gutted right now. The 8th, 9th and 11th innings were the most excruciating sports moments of my life.

Feel pretty similar but my consolation is God knows best homie. We’ll get our chip at the right time. Same with the Leafs.

my 7 year old was completely crushed.

but I guess it was good preparation for the next 90 years of his Toronto sports fandom.

2 of my nephews cried themselves to sleep.

This is new territory to me. I’ve never experienced a Toronto team lose in the finals in my 43 years.

i guess i'm just out of touch because my what's app group is still ripshit angry / traumatized.

no, it can't be me - it's the kids that are out of touch.

not surprised a whats app group united under the WE HATE POTATOES banner is angry/traumatized

We had to use him because we wanted to hit for Lukes... Probably is retrospect it might have made more sense to have Loperfido on the roster instead of France, to give you a second pinch run option.

Anyways, your take that IKF reacted like the most important play of the season (at that point) was a nothing burger is being slept on

Frankly, he almost certainly didn't know it was as close as it was. He wouldn't have known that Smith's foot came off the bag when he caught it, so he probably felt like he was out by a full step or two. Honestly the initial view of it it felt like he was out by a lot.

You’ll see bruv

If only he had started 6 inches further away from third base...

Oh, do we expect to actually win something in 91 years?
