Coping with a Finals Loss

Thought it would be THAT easy to accept losing in Game 7 of the last series of a conference -- I was wrong. It hurts like hell. Seeing them blasting all the things that they could do to come up for a win, it makes me cry just to think of it. Effort kung effort! They tried everything to meet the expectations of the loving fans, and failed to win in the process. There are lots of issues with the bad referree calls and all that, but I won't elaborate on that anymore. I'll leave it to them and to their conscience. *evil grin*
I, for one, have said that I will not cry if they'd lose. But seeing Jayjay and Eric receive the runner-up trophy smiling eased the pain, er, triggered all the tears until it's hard to control and it all fell down. My heart sank. Of all people, THEY WANTED THIS CROWN SO BADLY! Upon losing, they gave a whole-hearted smile, and still tried to cheer thousands of fans up when inside, admit it or not, they're also hurting. What a great display of sportsmanship. And Jayjay, he's playing hurt. That long-time hamstring problem is still with him yet how many points did he get? He tried to in tagalog words, 'buhatin ang buong team' when everyone seemed to be having an offnight. And the efforts of the others, Chico Lanete, Rafi Reavis, Eric Menk, Tubid, to name a few. Lahat naman. Even Sunday. The moment he got ejected from the game, his eyes said it all. Hurt and disappointment. He wanted to help this team up. Sadly, he just can't. What a time for that unfortunate event to happen. Di umaayon ang tadhana eh.

So did they really lose? I'm torn but I must say, they did not. They'll always be the winner in our hearts. They'd gain all the respect more than any team has gotten in the past. They're the BEST team for me, having the crown or not.

I would like to congratulate Coach Siot, Jonas V (Finals MVP) and the Beermen. K, it was a great fight, if we'll disregard some issues that others are putting into it. The 'sister team' thing is pathetic. I condemn those people who's even raising that topic. There is of course, a possibility. But I would like to give the credits to all the players who fight their hearts out and gave their best and did not mind those stuff/rumors.

In the end, it still hurts. But I just want to speak what I am thinking of as of the moment. Geez, I'm feeling a bit better now.
I would also like to grab this opportunity to congratulate our Best Player of the Conference, Fantastic Player of the Conference and the Most Valuable Player of the conference, Jayjay Helterbrand. I know I said before that I would put it on a separate post but I did not have the energy/time to do so.
I love THE FAST!
I love the Brgy Ginebra Kings! For infinity, that is.

Off.
