I saw this CD in a Walgreens in Carol Stream, IL right by where I work. I didn't pick it up. At this point the song is worthless. Thanks cubbies. Next year!
"hear my name, take a good look, this could be the day."
I'm sure this has probably been covered already, but i haven't been around much lately and i'm too lazy to research it.....Is there a B-side or just the Cubs song?

The Sports Authority version has some Into the Wild demos, the Best Buy version has both versions of the Cubs song, and the Walgreens version has Hurt from Chicago.

I am not a diehard Cubbies fan, but I disagree with you on this. The song, by design, is partially meant to pay homage to Chicago Cubs history. Not just the best parts, but the unfortunate parts too. This means acknowledging the lack of playoff appearances over the past 100 years, and the lack of success when they actually have made the playoffs. Hence, the chorus "Someday we'll go all the way."
The song also makes mention of Cubs diehards as "not fairweather, but foul weather fans", which I think anyone who is even slightly knowledgeable about baseball can confirm is true. The Wrigley attendance, the merchandise sales, and the almost unexplainably large fanbase indicate that loads of people continue to support the team despite a consistent unsuccessful history.
So to answer your question, I think that, at least, most true Cubs fans would want this song. That being said, I do understand that the song isn't meant for everybody. I also understand that even some of the most loyal Cubs fans probably aren't anxious to hear it right after a disappointing end to a promising season.
I still think that people will want this song though, and not because it's just another piece of Cubbies memorabilia. I've read other posts where people have said that the song should have been called "Someday We Won't Go All The Way", but they just don't get it. The song wasn't meant to be a prediction of immediate victory like the Chicago Bears "Superbowl Shuffle", or even "Go Cubs Go". Rather, it seems like an honest attempt to capture what it means to truly be a fan of the team.

I ordered one from bestbuy.com around when this was originally posted. I know it was backordered and whatnot, but I still haven't been charged or received it yet. Has anybody else?
I havent been charged or received anything yet either...
however, let's speculate that one side of the xmas single will be the song (keeping with the limited edition 7" idea), and a free cd single as well
That would be all right. I bought the mp3 from 10c, but didn't download right away, then I forgot about it and the link expired by the time I remembered I bought it. I know that was my fault, but I just hope I don't get fucked with Best Buy too. And I would also rather have a physical copy.
Did anybody end up getting this from BB. I ended up procrastinating like hell and put my order in 2 weeks ago. I got an email from BB today saying that it's discontinued and they cancelled my order. THey did go above and beyond, however, and issued me a $5 digital coupon, which cost more than the disc in the first place.

Nope, mine was canceled too and I put in my when it first was available. But, LiteTheMatch did hook me up so all is good.

but will look out for the news on this soon,, just hope i'm online....

I'll take reservations for the next 3 people to post saying that they would like one.
If paying with PayPal, it should cost about $10.00 for the CD, s&h, and PayPal fees. Or you can send a money order / cash & pre-paid package.
Soooo..
First three
