Being a fan of this team prior to the second half of 2014 was akin to being passed through the lower GI of baseball. To say the practice of being a Cubs fan from 2010-2014 was a grind is a massive understatement. The Cubs previous five seasons were usually decided by this point in April and to be honest, even if they mess the sheets this year, I feel as though we got some sort of bonus time as winners.

Originally, when I grabbed this spot prior to the start of the month, I kind of thought I would be writing a piece about patience and dealing with young talent.
