2022 Cubs Heroes and Goats; Game 135
The Cubs beat the Cardinals in Game 135. The team won the series. The Cubs were playing well before the game. They beat Milwaukee and Toronto. It's a baseball meme to romanticize the team that loses. When the Cubs won, the writer would talk about a single issue. This year, he was frustrated with David Ross and the front office. He doesn't like to focus on one thing all the time. Everyone involved is working hard to improve. No one likes losing. There is a perception that sportswriters write about gloom and doom. That's not true. I'm not going to write a lot of negative things about people.
