BT, you said...
"the players (and this is important) don't "share" the bulk of the blame. They shoulder pretty much the entire fucking load."
"Hendry has put this team in a position to win."
"But the 2009 Cubs failures are NOT his fault."
... which sounded to me like you place no blame on Hendry at all. I guess I misunderstood.
For me, all these assholes are to blame - players, manager, and the GM. Sure you can try to quantify it if you want (80% on the players, 10% on the manager, 10% on the GM) but what the hell is the point of that? We suck and there is plenty of blame to go around.
