    I'm pretty sure Eddie is not getting any money from the Cubs and his writing/performing of the song is based on his love for the team. Dropkick Murphys did the same thing for the Red Sox in 2004.

    Um...hello? Ed's been a Cubs fan practically since birth, and Ernie Banks asked him to write a song. Pay attention.

    Just because you dont like the team doesn't mean you should be pissed about it. Learn how to type too.

    Just release a 45 single and I'll buy it. I'm a Red Sox fan but I would buy a Cubs song by EV in a heartbeat if it was a vinyl.

    Well, you know, it is his profession and all... I'd hate for someone to put into question how I make my money... doubt anyone else would appreciate that around here... just sayin'

    tessie was written back in the early 20th century. the murphys merely made it thier own.

    I always thought Vedder was a sox fan until a couple of years ago. I just remember seeing him on SNL way back in the early 90s with a White Sox cap on and just assumed he was a fan.

    Yeah of those two I'm not sure which one I like better yet. However as far as baseball rally songs go I prefer this one over both:

    wow.. that's such a classic. kind of brings to mind a certain other song, just as "mesmerizing", by the chicago bears :D

    Yeah, if Ernie Banks asks you to do something, it's pretty much a given it'll happen. :)

    know?...perhaps 'now'...don't be so cynical...just a feel good song for his team...don't read so much negativity into it.

    I am a lifelong Red Sox fan, but I gotta say that the whole Red Sox nation-thing is pretty lame. That and the pink hat crew.
