Chicago Cubs: The hate and dismay for the Cubs needs to stop

Do you even like baseball?

I see things like “You sound pathetic, fans are frustrated because we expect more out of these prima donnas. So shut-up and mind your own business ass clown.” Brilliant words. If you believe they are primadonnas, why are you even watching the game of baseball? It sounds like your hate is rooted pretty deep.

It is June 1, and the Cubs are just two games below .500, three games out of first place. Just a week ago they were in first place before the road trip collapse. Maddon has never been a manager that gets on his players when they’re playing poorly. He trusts in them to figure it out, with an occasional nudge here and there. Imagine you’re doing a terrible job at work and your boss is riding you for it. Don’t like him much, do you? Develop and animosity towards him? That’s not Maddon’s M.O., and he isn’t going to start that now.
