In our self aggrandizing way as baseball fans, we love to reminisce about the ‘good old days’ and moments to hang our hats on, especially when the present is bleak. As Chicago Cubs fans, for some strange reason, we love to live in the scope of past successes rather than look forward to a bright future.
As a long-suffering franchise that went over a century without winning a championship, it can be justified. It leads to those moments sitting back, replaying the best of the best in our heads, especially considering the team’s circumstances heading into the new season.
