SHARE Cubs hashtag turns into team slogan

In the beginning of the season, the Cubs players started using the hashtag “#WeAreGood” in their tweets. The hashtag was to symbolize that other teams needed to take the Cubs seriously this season after a half-decade full of losing seasons.

Now, the Cubs have all the fans using the hashtag, and the saying “#WeAreGood” is a team slogan.

The Cubs wives will sell the shirts on Friday at Wrigley Field, and the proceeds will benefit the Ronald McDonald House.

If you want to buy a “#WeAreGood” shirt for $25, attend the Cubs-Phillies game on Friday.

Many Chicago Public Schools students struggle with illiteracy. The consequences are devastating.
When a child is reeling from stress, trauma or hardship, the thinking part of their brain shuts down. Our money should be spent on high-dosage tutoring and other individualized approaches that are effective against illiteracy.
