Spent the day feeling shit about the Blue Jays. But bloody hell, they didn't half give it a good go. I'd never have expected a trip to the WS at the start of the season and I never thought there was a chance they got as close as they did. And deep down, they were the better team. Just wasn't to be.

So cool that whenever someone asks the president, “did you eat the Lindbergh baby” he’s like, “no but I’d be allowed to, I have the right to, I might do it later”
