Colletti would be a disaster.  A less personable version of Jim Hendry is the last thing the Cubs need.

That article also talks about Ryne Sandberg being willing to come back to the organization now that Hendry is gone.  I find it interesting that Sandberg seems to be the only guy in baseball who can't get along with Jim Hendry.  I don't know if that's a personality trait I'd want in a manager...if his ego/sense of entitlement about the manager's job is so big that he can't get along with one of the most popular guys (personality wise) in professional baseball, that doesn't give me much hope that he'd be successful at managing the people side of a major league team.
