8. Disappointed, and not just for the result.

Both teams are capable of dazzling footy, but neither played to their potential. As a showcase for America's highest league, it was pretty lackluster. And the flopping was certainly enough to make the usual anti-footy naysayers sneer.

That said, the atmosphere in the stadium was incredible, and I'm glad I got the opportunity to experience it in person. Obviously, I wish we had won, but just being in the final at all—let alone hosting it—seemed a pipe dream two months ago.

Also, PK's suck.
