[NU Sports] Torre probably out in NY, Pinella in?

[Mike Nolan]

It appears the man who REALLY made "You're Fired!" a part of the New York 
lexicon is about to dump Joe Torre for another retread, Lou Pinella, so I 
guess Joe Girardi is headed back to Wrigley if the Cubbies ever get their
front office staffed.

Pinella and Girardi have my sympathies, both appear to be headed into what 
are likely to be no-win situations.  Any bets on who gets fired first?

The Bears are trying to prosper despite inept ownership, the Sox, Bulls and 
Black Hawks have yet to do that (beyond a fluke year in 2005 for the south 
siders and the MJ years at the Stadium.)  But the Tribune has proven to
be a worse owner than the Wrigley family for the Cubs, and 20 years ago I 
wouldn't have said that was possible!
