This was a GREAT run. It was fun as hell watching them. I can't wait for the next season. I hope we're all here watching next February and not just in the world series!

congrats to our girls on an amazing season.
But dammit, my sports life utterly blows.
We really could have beaten that team, but would've could've should've - we left a lot of plays out there.
Hope Blanco is one hell of a pitcher.
Feel for Wagner, she's a hell of a competitor.

And I hope even more fun next season.
Sad it had to end this way, though---our girls deserve better from the umps, who allowed the game to tilt heavily in Florida's favor because they didn't have the guts to enforce simple rules.
There's a reason for having a batter's box.

Florida played like they had been there which they had. It was a big advantage. We will be strong next year and take care of business.
Great season for this team.
I thought games 1 & 2 were pretty even from a mental toughness perspective but Florida just crushed us in this game. We looked totally intimidated by Haeger from pitch 1
I don't think we ever recovered from the mistake in the first inning.
Throwing to second instead of first set a terrible tone.
We just did nothing at the plate at all.
That's why the Game 1 blunder was so big. Can't give away runs.
back strong next year.
Congrats to a great Michigan team on a great season. (And really, congrats to a great program!)
If your measure of failure is anything other than a national championship, then there sure are a lot of failures out there. If every year you are the best person in America at whatever your job is, I tip my hat to you.
I thought they should have adopted the Florida strategy of getting hit by the pitches and having Smokey & Bubba make obviously horrible calls for them.
but I can't help but feel bad for Haylie Wagner...she definitely left it all on the field tonight. Looks like they are going to be a great team again next year with Betsa returning. Absolutely nothing to be ashamed of this year.
Go Blue!
and hope Betsa can raise her ceiling even higher.
Wagner had a really high ceiling and was so close to bringing us to the top of the mountain.
I want to watch the postgame to hear from Hutch and our players, but I just can't. I tried, I can't.

I hope we take out some frustration on some poor directional state school 1st game next season. I'm hoping for a 40-0 perfect game over West Kansas Tech

I just want to see one national title. I swear Michigan is cursed to wander the desert like Moses and the Israelites.

And it's fucking fading.
Dammit, I wanted a new one.
