Reflecting on it, it's very difficult to take, ultimately, KCs bullpen dominated the game and sadly you knew on the two occasions it headed into extras, it was just a case of "when" and not "if". However the crushing thing to take is, without doubt the fact we led in every game, with games one and five almost mirroring each other in the fact that we couldn't close out the final 3 outs, which is just so upsetting.
I will definitely not take anything away from the Mets, I backed us at the start of the season to win it, I was laughed at, the pundits never gave us a chance, the Nats were "too good" apparently, we showed them all wrong, and I can't be prouder.
It's nice that Murphy and Colon got their citi farewell, because realistically, after the MurphMania euphoria of October, the fickleness of Mets fans should be overlooked and spend the money on retaining Cespedes.
Kansas however were worthy winners, their total baseball approach is not easy on the eye, but let's stop, congratulate them and the worthy winners won.
Here's to the 2015 New York Mets, National League champions, see you in April, now go find me a gun, I only have to watch the Jets for another 8 weeks
