If you're from the Midwest, when it comes to the seasons, you don't ever really go by the calendar; winter, spring, summer and fall are official when something happens. For example, according to the calendar, summer begins June 20th; but most of us feel like summer begins on Memorial Day weekend.

When it comes to spring, if you're a sports fan, spring officially begins when Chicago Cubs' spring training begins and the Cubs got this season off to a pretty funny start- with new t-shirts that include one of manager Joe Maddon's favorite mottos, "Try Not to Suck."

Last year, when the Cubs were in the playoffs, I vowed to get myself a Cubs shirt. I never did but that's about to change. I need this t-shirt in my life, and if you're a Cubs fan you should get one too.

The organization is selling them through Korked Baseball and all the proceeds will go to Maddon's 'Respect 90' foundation.
