Mournfully ate the last piece of ice cream cake that I was saving to eat while celebrating the Blue Jays World Series win. (Still tasty)

Sending some virtual hugs and love from Wall-E

Don Mattingly sitting alone having never won a World Series after such a long storied career is heartbreaking. 💔😢

And then Bo comes over to give him a hug. 😭

This is honestly a bit part of why I think this year feels so much harder than other playoff losses.

I'll have more long form thoughts on this later, but the one comment that really got me was Shane Bieber saying something to the effect of: "It will never be the same again." The Blue Jays knew they had a once-in-a-lifetime team, true lightning in a bottle in 2025.

I think it is ok to just feel sad about it. For me, I also think back to the start of the World Series when I honestly felt like I’d be ok if they just didn’t get swept. There is some consolation in all the great moments and hope we had during the series, even if it makes the ultimate loss harder.

Bo Bichette on his future:

I think it’s not the losing the World Series so much as knowing it’s the end of this team. And winning would have been the end of the team too, but you’d have the win to console you.

The Blue Jays season was unquestionably a really good thing, and we live in a world desperately short of really good things.
Thank you, gents.

Bring Bo back please, that can’t be the ending.

Honestly, they’re taking it a little far now.

Blue Jays just wanted the most possible baseball. #WantItAll #JaysIn7

Well, I had promised I would like Jeff Hoffman if he won us the World Series so at least I can keep my longstanding grudge against him.

Ok, I’m nervous now. #WantItAll

Vladdy had to wait a bit to hug Bo Bichette, but it was worth it 🥹

So … before the World Series started my family was discussing whether we would give up the chance of the Blue Jays winning again in our lifetimes if it meant they win it all this year. I said yes, as long as Bo was a part of it. Still feel this way.
