James Dowdle, brought Harry Caray over from the Sox, later fired Jim Essian, hired Larry Homes, Andy MacPhail, and Jim Hendry. Replaced by MacPhail, who begat McDonough, who preceded Crane. (http://my.chicagotribune.com/#section/-1/article/p2p-79356333/)
RIP... but screw up another team next time.
He hired a professional boxer?

He should have. Larry Holmes would have had a better club than Larry Himes.
What an asshat (http://wgntv.com/2014/01/08/maddux-thomas-elected-to-hall-of-fame/). I hope his executor makes a miscalculation and spends his entire estate on a bunch of dildos.
QuoteFormer Tribune Co. vice-president James Dowdle later admitted the Tribune Co. decision to let Maddux go was a "miscalculation" by the organization, and conceded Cubs fans would never let them forget it.
"We paid (Mark) Grace, we signed (Ryne) Sandberg, we signed (Mel) Rojas," Dowdle said in April of 1997. "I think we'll put a decent offer on the table for Sammy (Sosa). (But) our history says we could sign our free agents for the next 10-15 years, and 'Maddux' is still going to come up."

Where on God's green earth is Huey? I would think an appropriate eulogy from him would be therapeutic to us all.

Doesn't make it any less true. Just like me suggesting that you splitting a grape with an axe when you get get all worked up with your niggling, troll-pedantry doesn't make it any less true just because I'm extremely guilty of the same. Fuckall, if
anyone should be able to sit in judgement of others doing the same, it'd be me, considering the breadth of experience I have with the practice.
