Cubs fans were sold the promise of a continually open championship window, yet they’ve been shut out of true contention for the past three seasons, trending down and staring in the face of a cultural reshape.
Playing meaningful baseball games before April 1 is stupid, its even more stupid to play some of those games in Chicago, where it will certainly snow and force the Sox’s opener at least to be actually played in June or July.
Who cares if the average North Sider has to dig more into their pockets just to see the team they love? To see the Cubs win used to be a blessing, pretty soon to see the team at all will be yet another division based on class and resource.
