I call this Monday morning quarterbacking,on the part of the current media. Anything for a story. There is enough negativity going on in our country and this just adds to it. Shame on the media. I believe very little of what I read from the media. IMO the media embellishes, twists, then publish half truths all to get a story out before their deadline.

Why can't we just let Epstein and company run the team in the way they feel best for the team, after all they have brought us a world championship, three division titles and more. It's been sometime since I've read anything by the media about the good the current management has brought to the Cubs organization. For whatever reason the general public thrives on negativity rather than the good.

Let's all just take a deep breath, sit back and enjoy the 2019 Cubs, and see what happens as the year progresses

Dabo Swinney? He can’t control what writers want to write. This isn’t college or high school. This is professional baseball. No holds barred writing is why I love CubsHQ. If it makes Epstein upset all the better. When he signed Yu I stopped caring whether anyone hurt his feelings.

I wrote a piece a while back (hasn't been posted yet) about a little conspiracy theory going on in Chicago with the Cubs. Should post soon, the latest media allegations about Theo, Russell and the media seem to fit right in.
