It's not just the black-and-white numbers that made the year so miserable. The totality of the Chicago sports experience was dreadful. In 2024, fans of Chicago teams faced a barrage of disappointments across various sports, leaving many to wonder if this was the worst year in modern history for the city's athletic endeavors.
From the start of the baseball season, both the Cubs and the White Sox struggled to find their footing, with lackluster performances that saw them fall far behind in the standings. Meanwhile, the Bears continued their long-standing struggle for consistency, failing to make a significant impact in the NFL. The Bulls and Blackhawks also faced their own challenges, with injuries and poor team dynamics leading to disappointing seasons.
As the year progressed, the hope for a turnaround dwindled, leaving fans disheartened. The collective struggles of these franchises highlighted a broader issue within Chicago sports, prompting discussions about the future and potential changes needed to revitalize the city's proud athletic legacy.
