Exciting Series Comes to Predictable Anti-Climactic Ending

Nothing to see tonight in Washington folks, please just move along quickly and shield your eyes. 

Ouch. I mean, seriously, damn. That’s a beat down. Glad I didn’t buy tickets to see it. Or maybe I should have cause it could have been really funny for the first ten minutes. After that it would just be sad. Really, horribly, sad.

So how does it work when a team that has fought hard all postseason long comes home for a Game 7 and completely lays an egg? And I don’t mean your ordinary kind of egg laying. Like the kind of one that is going to sting for years and could become the face of failure for the franchise. I honestly can’t say I’ve ever seen anything like this before — and that’s coming from an Islander fan.

Do you give your fans a refund for, I don’t know, the entire season and plead with the bandwagoners to come back next year? Do you give them free tickets to the local baseball team for the rest of the summer? Wait, no, nobody would want to see the Nationals even for free. I don’t know. Ted Leonsis personally apologies to the fans one by one while handing them ice cream sundaes?
