Eddie Vedder has talent and compassion. Do you hear Ed saying anything back at Billy? No! Because Ed has style Billy has always been a complainer anyway. Well, if I was Billy I guess I would be jealous of Eddie too. Talent, looks, strong fan base oh and hair.

Eddie Vedder>Billy Corgan…

Blame Ed Ved for the Cubs failures…sure, that’s like blaming James Iha for the original demise of the Pumpkins…

At least your team won’t spend a kajillion dollars and still not win it all like mine does…maybe someone can sing a song for us so we can shift the blame of postseason (or regular season) failures to them…

Gee Billy Corgan cursed the Smashing Pumpkins. Corgan is a freaking baldy headed poorly vocally talented media whore. This guy will do almost anything for some sound bytes in the main stream media. Vedder shuns that attention, funny enough.

Oh and the media market where Eddie Vedder’ solo, Pearl Jam records, and tickjets sell the best over the last decade????…………PHILLY!

And speaking as a life long Pearl Jam fan and long suffering Phillies fan.

WE WON!

Vedder didn’t Curse the cubs, the fans curse the cubs by yapping about curses!

Just put a statue of William Penn on top of the highest point in your city!

Sorry but I didn’t see Vedder down on that field with a hat & glove on. And I don’t believe in hexes. These so-called curses are just a cop-out for a team that just plain choked. I just posted a blog earlier this week that listed the weirdest superstitions in baseball and the Cubs are on the list (http://myteamrivals.typepad.com/phightin_phils_phorum/2008/11/strange-baseb-1.html ). How about we all quit blaming everyone else and live in peace? Too much to ask? Here’s what I believe in: Peace, Love and Baseball :O)

Everyone knows Obama killed the Cubs.

We’re all White Sox fans now.

Eddie wrote that song many years ago, which he explained at the Vic show in 2007 when the song first was played live. There is no fucking curse. The Cubs choke every year and will continue to choke for many more. Cubs fans are pathetic just like their franchise.

Corgan should write his own tribute song before pissing on someone else’s tribute song. At least Vedder made the effort and in my opinion it’s a pretty good effort at that.

Um, has Cubs Genius Billy Corgan ever heard “A Dying Cubs Fan’s Last Request” ??

Didn’t think so.

Eddie wrote that song before the season even started anyway. And at least Eddie is appreciative of his fans. Billy was a cry baby ungreatful bitch during the chicago shows and I’ll never give that cry baby another cent.
