Baseball thoughts: Please stop with the eulogies. No matter what happens on the field today, 2018 Cubs baseball isn’t over. You’ve got to be in it to win it, and they’re in it. This is still the golden era of Cubs baseball. Don’t take it for granted.

Appreciate what’s happening here. Bears were 26 games below .500 in the 5 years since firing Lovie Smith after a 10-6 season in 2012. The 2018 Bears will finish with a winning record for the first time since then. They’re as fun a team to watch as the Bears have had since 1985.

The year before Vic Fangio came to Chicago, Bears allowed 27.6 ppg, most in the NFC. Bears gave up the fewest points in the NFL in 2018 (17.7 ppg). He transformed Kyle Fuller into a first-team All-Pro CB, and correctly predicted a Cubs championship. Impressive tenure.
