What gives you the idea that he wouldn't want the job?
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
He turned down the Brewers job last year and was rumored to be approached for other opportunities in the past yet nothing came of any of it, so it seems as though he might be waiting for a perfect scenario to jump back into managing. The Cubs are a team in transition, with no clear direction, and it is hard for me to see Brenly jumping into a mess like this. Plus, Brenly has seen how quickly fortunes can turn on a dime here, and it is never pretty. After all, these are the Cubs.

Is it confirmed that he turned down the Brewers job? I knew he got the interview, but I never heard anymore. I just figured he didn't get the offer.

The thing you need to remember is that all Cardinals fans and all White Sox fans are very bad people. It's a fact that has been scientifically proven beyond a shadow of a doubt. Being a Cubs fan is the only path to rightousness and piousness. Cardinal and White Sox fans exist to be the dark, diabolical forces that oppose us. They are the yin to our yang, the Joker to our Batman, the demon to our angel, the insurgence to our freedom, the oil to our water, the club to our baby seal. Their happiness occurs only in direct conflict with everything that is pure and good in this world.
