About

Bleacher Nation is a Chicago Cubs news, rumors, and commentary blog, started in 2008. We’ll bring you all of the latest news and rumors about the Cubs – however tangentially related or how “lukewarm” the rumors – right here, so you don’t have to traipse all over the internet to find it. We’ll also offer our own commentary and analysis, developed and perfected like a slow-cooked roast during decades of an unhealthy Cubs obsession.

We like to think we’re coming straight from the Wrigley Field bleachers. What that means is that you’re going to get the news, rumors and analysis presented in a straightforward way, without pretense. We think what we think, and we’re going to say it.

Maybe the best “about” comes from our very first post:

But even more, I like to TALK about the Cubs. So that’s what I plan on doing in my little space here. I don’t expect it to be earth-shattering stuff, but I do expect to provide the most recent Cubs news and rumors. Maybe the e-world doesn’t need another Cubs blog to do that – believe me, there are a lot of really great Cubs blogs out there – but I’d like to think I can offer a moderately interesting voice on the subject. And if nothing else, you can benefit from my unhealthy obsession with all things Cubs: everything even remotely related to the Cubs should be reported right here.

I don’t know exactly what this place is going to become. I have visions, ideas. But I don’t want to make promises I can’t keep. So I’ll keep it simple, and only promise that this will be the greatest single web site in the history of the universe times infinity.

So welcome to the bleachers. Read, comment, enjoy. We do.
