They have also been floating the LaRussa balloon.
I kind of like the Torre w/ Sandberg as bench coach, 2 year deal with a retirement plan that Sandberg takes over after two years.
You could insert LaRussa in place of Torre in the above plan.
I hate Larussa, but much like I hated Edmonds until I loved him.
That would mean Duncan as well [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif[/img]
You could also insert Brenly or Girardi in the above plan, but the exit strategy could get dicey, with the old guys at least you can plan for the exit and handing over of the keys.
What other old guys are out there? Valentine...Showalter...Leyland...Maybe we could get Jack McKeon...he could teach Jim a little about GM too.

Fat Bastard is an immensely obese, hardly able to walk (weighing a metric ton) gardener and henchman hailing from Scotland. His extreme size endows Fat Bastard with super-human strength as exhibited by his prowess in the Sumo ring from Goldmember. This makes him a formidable enemy for Austin Powers. Fat Bastard is noted for his foul temper, his frequent flatulence, his vulgar and revolting bad manners and his unusual eating habits, which include taste for Human infants (which he calls "the other other white meat") or anything that looks like a baby, e.g. small people. Fat Bastard has been a regular at Cub games since the early 80's when he tried several times (unsuccessfully) to eat the visiting San Diego Chicken.
