OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

You DO know that an ex-Cub player has my support in the managerial race, right?

Without clicking on the link, my guess is...Tony LaRussa.  Amiright?

Googling Dave Martinez doesn't bring up any pictures of him as a Cub but it does bring up this:

I just did.
This is so bad, I'd root for the Orioles over this fucking team, but I can't. Because they're a fucking drug and you can't kick it and they'll never win anything and they'll always suck, but it'll always be sunny at Wrigley and there will be tits and ivy and an old scoreboard and fucking Chads.

Why the fuck would you hire a bench coach with no big league coaching experience? I know the answer. I shouldn't have phrased that as a question.

I'm really hoping'd

I'm not saying it's the right answer but it's an answer. Just hire Ryno to coach third base/infield and see if Castro learns how to receive the throw from catcher in the right spot. If so: Win.

Any word if Carroll was correct about Sandberg being the bench coach

I'm good with it. Had they somehow managed to land Girardi, it would cost them some astronomical figure that the next GM would be saddled with. Now, they can fire Hendry and if the new guy likes Quade, yay. If he doesn't...

But I hope Quade wins four World Series championships in a row with teh Cubs.
