1969 Cubs Historical Heroes and Goats: Part 1

Perhaps, a year will come when my off-season series isn’t a season that ends in gut-wrenching fashion. This isn’t that year. For some, I know that looking back on these seasons is a source of pain. Certainly, I remember the bitter pain of the 2003 season I wrote about last year. Definitely, I remember being blindsided by the end of the 1984 season. I wasn’t alive in 1969, but of course it is hard to be a Cub fan without having some level of awareness of what 1969 was in Cub history.

Your mileage will vary, but I’m going to say this.
