"I’ve a little girl at home so it kind of takes your mind off of it fairly quick ," Moran told Colm Parkinson on the GAA Hour.He's been down this road before but with the help of the Mayo fans the loss hasn't quite been as tough of a pill to swallow:
"We came home to the homecoming on the Monday we did the gig on Sunday after the match, they’re usually very tough gigs but the Mayo fans have just been unreal, to be honest with you, like more so than any other year. "Definitely more so that any other year, they made it quite easy."And being the elder statesman on the team, Moran knows exactly what the younger lads are going through:
"When I was 25, I remember the feeling from when I was younger I couldn’t get over it for weeks, you’d just keep going until the club scene is over and then you’d probably get into it again and be depressed for another couple of weeks."Despite all of this, you can only imagine what it meant to Moran to carry his daughter on the Croke Park pitch after the match.
Even after suffering and at hands of Dublin he gets to provide his daughter with, yet another, priceless memory as they walk around the pitch of the biggest stadium in Ireland on its biggest day. And, even in loss, that's what it is all about.
