Cubs DVD Boxset being released in May

[Mizzou]

This might be one of the coolest things I've ever seen. I've been looking for something like this for awhile now. I'm definitely buying it the day it goes on sale.

I'm not sure what's more sad: that they didn't feel that they could wait to include a World Series on there or that Neifi Perez made the cover.

 

Still looks cool, though.

I'm holding out for the World Series DVD. :D

[Brian]

The complete 2003 division clinching game would have been cool, I'll probably Netflix this.

[Brian]

Looking through the rest of the list of new releases looks like a lot of other full World Series sets are coming out.

I have a big chunk of that stuff on VHS tapes which are fading fast. This is great.

[KenCub]

They lose points with me for spelling Derrek Lee's name wrong.

 

This DVD set looks cool, but I'll also wait for the World Series DVD set.

....okay, I admit it, this'll probably make the "birthday wish list"..... :D

Holding out is fine, holding your breath--not recommended.

The set is $59.99 on Amazon.com and comes out May 29th.

 

Thanks to a gift card and some Sammy nostalgia, I already pre-ordered it. I'm never going to watch Lee's game from 2005, though.

I'm pretty much a Cubs addict who does some pretty stupid things to satisfy my hunger for more things Cub. But I could never imagine myself sitting down to watch a DVD like this.

DVD's will be extinct by then. :cry:

Or $48.29 from deepdiscount.com.

It's a shame that they're only doing fairly recent games. It would be really neat to see some games from the 69 season get some Cubs legends in their prime.

I hope this ends up on a torrent host. Not stealing is for people who respect the rule of law.

The June 23rd game is "THE" Sandberg game, right?? Against Sutter and the Cardinals?? Please tell me that it is. I'd buy it just for that. I never got to see Kerry's game or the Sutcliff game so those will be great to see. I'd guess it might not fit in with the "spirit" of the concept but I wish the Bill Murray game was included too.

Why not?

It is. You can verify it by looking up the box score on retrosheet.org.

The set's out now. I watched the Ryne Sandberg game today (nice to watch a game where the Cubs actually win, even if it is an old one).

[Brian]

I just ordered the set - 41.08.

That's the original broadcast with Harry calling the game, right?

Costas called it, it was the NBC Game of the Week.

Oh okay, didn't realize that. So the DVD's include the original commentary right? I just don't want to buy the set and be surprised with some random guy narrating the games.

Yeah, they are the complete original broadcasts. I was somewhat disappointed to hear that they wouldn't all be re-dubbed by Joe Carter :D

Complete broadcasts, sans commercials.
