Can you even grasp how long that is? And with the relatively short time you've been following the team (given 100+ years), don't you think it's perhaps not just all bad luck or mismanagement or whatever? I've resigned myself to thinking about the Cubs as a soap opera. I follow the story, but I don't get sucked in, because there is always going to be some kind of plot twist that will crush whatever fantasy you might have had about the end of the story.
I'm 100% fine with this. I'm just glad there's an actual plan in place that isn't, "Let's load up on retreads and hope we get lucky." I'm a little tired of that plan.
