The Cubs are playing as well as anybody in baseball again. Are they better than the Dodgers right now? Is Petecrow better than Shohei? Can they still catch the Brewers? So many questions. www.pointlessexercise.com/are-the-cubs...

Are the Cubs better than the Dodgers?

Right now? Probably. When it counts? That's something else.

The fact we are not that far removed from a Patrick Wisdom Bobblehead Day supports your argument.

The Case for Letting the Bears Go

If we can swallow our pride, letting the team slip across the Indiana border actually makes a lot of sense.

For sure. I was just thinking Ben has a Ditka like persona to him and he is the one who put them back on the map in a lot of ways and I think Caleb will take the reins from that.
