The Cub Fan: Narrated by Bob Costas, "Cub Fan" is a moving tribute to the most persevering fans in all of sports. Fueled by their never-ending faith in the impossible dream, Chicago Cubs fans talk about their traditions, their icons, and what it's like to be true to a team that has failed them every year since 1908. You'll sing along with legendary Cubs broadcaster Harry Caray... sit in the stands with fan legends Ronnie Woo, the Bleacher Preacher, and the original Bleacher Bums... patrol Waveland Avenue with Wrigley Field's notorious ball hawks... and hear inspired commentary by lifelong Cubs fan George Will, former Cub greats Ron Santo and Andy Pafko, producing legend Arne Harris, award-winning sportswriters Jerome Holtzman and Bill Jauss, and Harry's wife and grandson, Dutchie and Chip Caray. Inside Chicago: Wrigley Field: It's got acres of Kentucky Bluegrass, miles of Boston Ivy, and gallons of Mississippi Mud. But Wrigley Field is 100% Chicago, and it's a national treasure. Narrated by renowned Chicago DJ Terri Hemmert, this Emmy-winning peek at the inner workings of the "friendly confines" gives you an exclusive tour of the people, the history, and the secrets behind America's favorite ballpark. From the clubhouse to the organist to the world-famous scoreboard, you'll see close-hand how Wrigley has defied convention to become a perennial winner with Cub fans everywhere.

Summary: I Loved it!
Comment: This DVD didn't sugarcoat the fact that Cubs fans are going on 100 years of ineptitude. I'm so tired of the media saying the Cubs stink. They do NOT! Have you heard of 1945, 1969, 1977, 1984, 1989, 1998 and 2001? Suckers! We were in the playoffs every one of those years. And for all those White Sox fans out there who are sudddenly elitist because they won one world series in 88 years, you can suck eggs as far as I'm concerned cause the Cubs are the best team ever. I can't prove my point with statistics or fact, but I feel it in my heart. I also enjoy the works of John Tesh.

Summary: A Very Happy Cub Fan
Comment: I bought this DVD for my husband as a surprise. He has been a Cub fan for over sixty years and is a DIE HARD CUB FAN. When the
DVD arrived he could not wait to see it. He was very happy with
the DVD and has watched it several time.
