The All-Purpose No Bullshit Tolerating Who Should Be the Next Manager Thread

[Brownie]

For all of his faults, Ozzie is a pretty good manager.  The Cubs could certainly do worse.  I'm surprised that Kenny won the power struggle, seeing as how Hahn has been ready to assume GM duties for a while now.

Kenny Williams did say he'd leave for the Raiders GM job. Now, that would be fung!

He doesn't want to manage a team in a rebuilding phase but (Eh-eh-eh-eh) if you've got a team full of juiced-up veterans who don't need to be told shit ready to compete for a title this year, call him.

So, Ozzie Guillen anybody?

I'd be down.

With Brenly out, needed a new former D'Backs manager on the list.

Bo-Mel to interview.

Might as well call Jack McKeon & Joe Torre too. I can't see any other reason to talk to Melvin other than the fact he beat the Cubs in the playoffs.

Pen may spend "5 trillion hours per week on fantasy sports" but 10 seconds for reading is a bridge too far.

That name really sounds made up.

[Slaky]

At this point, they should just give Quade the job. If they're not going to spend enough money to improve the team and plan to use what they have, they might as well keep the guy who's been busting his ass to win games. I kinda like this bald clown. Also, beating San Diego in their poo-stained 1984 abortion uniforms is sweet.

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