Presented with little comment from the mind of Mauricio Rubio:
I see people are talking about the relaxed tone this baseball season has had in Chicago thus far. “Relaxed” meaning people aren’t living…

And dying with the results like in years past. While I have 15 mins let me say a few things.

Baseball has always been a sport where you can miss a few games in the season.

On the micro level baseball is also a sport you can enjoy while not giving it your full attention. It’s a very conversational game.

I think that I’ve always viewed the game itself as a par of my summer, not what dictates/drives my summer. I watch games because I want to.

Not because I feel compelled to. That’s why I love it so much, to me it gives as much as you give. It doesn’t enslave your attention span.

It’s a long season, people are turned off by that. I get it. But I think having space and time to breathe is a good thing.

As to how this all related to the 2013 Cubs season? Watch or don’t watch. Baseball will be there if you decide to watch it sporadically.

There’s a lot of fun stuff going on league wide, that will be there too if you choose to pay attention.

Basically, don’t sweat the small stuff, kid. This is an inclusive game. Join up whatever time you feel like for as long as you wish. -fin

Enjoy baseball, Cubs or otherwise. You’ll miss it when it’s gone.
