Loyal Fans Featured

As we all know, us Cubs fans all share a passion for baseball and our Boys in Blue. If you have not already heard, the Cubs are launching a new campaign featuring those committed fans.

The "Committed" campaign began the other day and can be found through the newspaper, television, radio and more. Featured will be people who were engaged at Wrigley, people with awesome Cubby tattoos, and possibly some extremely bizarre things.

I assume that this advertisement campaign will be similar to one that the White Sox launched a couple years ago. I believe it was during the playoffs because I remember commercials with fans that grew out playoff beards.

The Cubs seem like they are doing a good job in marketing, but is this really just a lure to distract us from what we might see this season? I certainly hope not. This year I would like to see a season somewhere around .500. I know we are not going to win a championship, but maybe they can give us a reason to watch..

2013 Cubs Convention

If you are a true Cubs fan, this is the place to be. The convention is an annual event hosted by the Cubs, where various coaches, executives, announcers, and players, current and former, come out for a weekend filled with fun and entertainment. The Cubs have changed the location to the Sheraton towers for this year. The convention will take place January 18th through 20th. This is a great opportunity to get autographs, attend conferences, and visit many great vendors. I have been attending the convention since I was young and have always had a blast. Some of the notable attendees for this year are Starlin Castro, Darwin Barney, Anthony Rizzo, and Alfonso Soriano. Whether you have attended before or not, I would highly recommend going. It is a great experience that has something for all Cubs fans. For more information visit  http://chicago.cubs.mlb.com/chc/community/convention.jsp
I would get your passes and hotel rooms asap because they sell out fast!
