I kid, I kid. Great job Cubs. For the first time in a real long time, I don't get embarrassed in pubic when I mention I'm a Cubs fan.

 

Honestly, the topic usually doesn't come up at that time.

Very nice that it's not nearly as soul-crushing and depressing as the last 3 years. That 2004 one still makes me tear up whenever I see it.

 

<---Watching the 2004 tribute right now to try and keep myself level-headed.

 

any chance you could shoot us a link to the 2004 one?

 

Here you go buddy.

 

 

By the way, I suggest anyone uploading the 2007 video do the same things I did. Mislabel it, disable ratings, no discernible title.

Wow. That did wonders for tempering my enthusiasm. No way the Cubs make the playoffs this year.

 

Are you not able to upload the 07 version under similarly misleading title and tags?

Ironically, here's a 2007 tribute using the 2004 song:

One problem with that is them showing hits/home runs from the Cubs-Marlins series when the Cubs got swept. Aren't these supposed to be positive memories?

One of those clips is definitely from the NSBB day game, which I thought really weird.

 

I saw several losses in there...I guess it was more of a HR reel than anything. Weird seeing those Barrett shots.

 

It needed the Derrek Lee inside-the-park home run. Man, that was an exciting moment.

 

Bizarre highlight reel, about half of the home runs were in losses.

 

I'm only halfway through, but I'm not seeing any pitching or defensive highlights, and that dissapoints me, as that truly is the story of the 2007 Cubs.

Thanks a bunch. The 2004 one is on my iPod now... youtube can't take it away from me.
