Sour On "Sweet Lou"
Memo to Jim "King Cruller" Hendry:
Jimbo, You have a most daunting task ahead of you. There have been published reports of who your short list contains. Please re-write it. It should start with Joe Girardi (proven manager who is an ex-Cub, and a catcher, who actually has World Series rings), move on to Ryne Sandberg (unproven manger, but HOF lifetime Cub who has an idea of how to play the game right), and Jody Davis (success at Peoria in 2006, ex Cub who is a catcher). As a last resort, Bob Brenly (ex-catcher, World Series ring as a manager, knows how horrid Cubs were last year and should have an idea on how to fix it). The ex-catchers would be good because they know how to handle pitchers. Sandberg would be good because they would get better at fundamental baseball - or else. What you should not do under any circumstance is hire Lou"Grandpa Munster" Pinella, who is not only older than dirt, but would probably bring back Larry Fraudschild as pitching coach. Just to make it clear, Jim, that would be a BAD idea. Cub fans across the world are scared shitless that you will bring Grandpa in and we'll never be rid of Fraudschild. Please, Jim, make the right move.

I make too much sense, that's why I'll be managing Washington while Grandpa Lou pitches Z's arm off.
