So you wanted to be a Chicago Cubs fan? Well, welcome to what it feels like and felt like for many years watching good Cubs teams go bad and bad Cubs teams get worse. This was not just one season, but years or even decades at a time. We lost a lot of games along the way to winning that long-awaited championship in 2016.
Fans are rightly justified in feeling upset at this slow start from the Cubs. After all, this team is just a few players different than that 2016 team. That was three years ago, not 10 years ago or longer.
