I haven’t been this pissed about a game in a while. On one hand I think, why am I getting so pissed off about a game, especially considering everything that 2020 has brought. On the other hand, I’m glad to feel this way. It never fails. Before the Cubs started Game 2, I felt butterflies; at the age of 44, I’m still happy to feel this way… it’s a good thing. On the flip side, when something I get excited about, like the Cubs, falls flat on their face, it sucks. I guess the way it happened pisses me off more than anything. I was begging, begging Kipnis at the plate with 2 outs in the 9th inning… if you’re going to strikeout, at least strike out swinging… at least swing the fricking bat… at least give a shit… unlike the 2 batters before, Bote and Baez, who can continue to rest their bats on their shoulders throughout the offseason. Who was on the mound Cy Young? Jesus Christ it was Brandon Kintzler… yeah, the guy that sucked ass for us; OK, he didn’t do too bad, but still… he’s a bum, and we’re up there getting mesmerized. Can’t even swing the bat… zero effort… zero want… zero desire… that pretty much sums up these two games… there was nothing… absolutely nothing… the Cubs were sparkless. Thank you Jason for swinging.
So the 1-2 punch did their jobs. Hendricks and Darvish both pitched well enough to win a game, if they had a team that could do absolutely anything at all at the dish. OK, it wasn’t as bad as the Reds, but my God… 1 run in 18 innings against the Marlins?!?!? Yeah, the F-ing Marlins… makes it that much worse. Waiting 17 years for payback, and they flop again against this team that nobody gives a rat’s ass about. Probably the team with the least fans in the MLB, the Marlins win yet another playoff series. I guess it’s because they’re used to playing in front of no fans… maybe that’s why they won. I mean, I’m not going to kid myself with World Series dreams as this postseason began, but at the very least give me the Marlins series. Nope. Zip. Zero. Nada.

The core has rotted. None of them did a damn thing. You cannot win a ball game when your “best players” don’t do shit. Sure, do I love those guys? Yes. I always will. 2016 forever baby. But when next year rolls around, it’ll be 5 years since then; yes, 5 years… can you believe it? And yes, they made the playoffs again, and this was a crazy COVID year, but the golden era of Cubs baseball is losing its luster because of the lack of another World Series title. Look at me… little spoiled ass, can’t just be happy with 1 World Series victory in my lifetime… there’s that, but man… this team was supposed to be built to win more than one. It just hasn’t happened. The big question is why, which brings me back to my original thought; blow it up. Nobody is untouchable… nobody. Move anybody you can get something for. We need fresh blood. What, are we going to fire another hitting coach? Seriously. Maybe, just maybe that’s not the issue…
Yeah I know… line up the excuses because of the shortened season… bullshit. I’m sorry. Sure, there is some truth to that, but not enough to make me believe that next year, a “normal” year, will be any different for the Cubs. What is the definition of insanity? Trying to do the same thing over and over and expecting a different result? Yes, us Cubs fans are insane, that’s not a debate; supporting a team for my whole lifetime with nothing… until finally 2016. Yeah, and guess what… I will support them for another 40 years even if there is no more World Series trophies; that’s just how we’re built. There is no flipping teams here; believe that. But man… I’m pissed. Something needs to change. This is not acceptable. Making the playoffs is not enough; funny right? Yes, that is our reality today. The Cubs need to do whatever they have to do to get back to and win another World Series. That quest begins again today. Ready for anything; ready for some changes. Ready to see our boys get back on the field and show that they give a shit. I didn’t see that these past 2 games, and no, I’m not giving any damn credit to that other team. We couldn’t hit, thus we didn’t win. This needs to change. Where do we begin?
