From someone who was delightfully bereft from being exposed to the daily Chicago sports media last year, I ask all of you just how untenable you feel the situation with Bradley is. Is the relationship irreparable? Because, quite frankly, I believe the only deal Hendry could make now would not just leave a bad taste in our mouths, it would take a Cleveland Steamer over the collective chest of cub fans (see: Carlos Silva). Just how important is it to get rid of him?
From my perspective, the math looks like this, where x>y:
X) Bradley's play + Bradley's kookycakes nuttiness + rest of underperformers = mediocre Cubs team
Y) Silva (Guillen/Hafner/Chavez) - $$$ for Bradley's contract + rest of underperformers =mediocre<b>r</b> Cubs team

One dick can poke an eye out. A hundred dicks can move mountains.
