Root Causes | S9E35

Pete spent the day doing some investigative journalism. He made calls, pulled records, and chased down leads no one else had the courage — or the free time — to chase.

Something is clearly wrong. Since the All-Star Break, every team ToR follows has decided to embrace mediocrity — at best! — as a lifestyle choice. This weak, the Team discusses the Cubs dropping out of the NL Central race, the Cardinals’ tragic number reducing to four, CITY hovering dangerously close to the Wooden Spoon, and Newcastle drawing Leeds, not to mention the Bears spending Monday's fourth quarter collapsing as performance art.

Because after careful research, meticulous analysis, and hours of reflection, Pete finally uncovered the root cause of all this misery.

It’s Ron’s fault.
