Comcast SportsNet anchor Michael Jenkins did what any diehard fan would do to cope with the Washington Capitals' season-ending loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Wednesday night: drink the pain away.

Only Jenkins did it on air, while teaching kids a very sad lesson.

"I know everyone says, 'Oh, you can do whatever you want if you put your mind to it.' It's all one big lie," he said. "Caps were supposed to win it all this season, they put their mind to it. Look what happened. Crushing disappointment. So, give up on your dreams."
