Sports Update: Should the Chicago Cubs Fire Jim Hendry?

Jim Hendry
     Is this the end of the Jim Hendry era? Or should it be the end for him? Hendry appears incapable of making good decisions. His abilities as GM has been called into question on many occasions, and the organization's lack of success has put him in the hot seat many times. The question is how many times does it take before an owner should say, that's it? The team is there to win not exist or just provide entertainment.Though the Cubs showed a spark of hope after a win at home against the Yankees, it's not necessarily enough to save Hendry's career in Chicago. The team's disappointing track record over the past decade may land Jim in the unemployment line...and many think it is for the good. It appears that the only reason he's still employed with the Cubs is his closeness with chairman Tom Ricketts. In any case, the organization needs a makeover on the GM side...they need a new look and a new approach. Would firing Hendry begin the process of turning the organization around? Or is he doing an adequate job?
