CHICAGO--The search for a new general manager is on. Team president Kevin Mather says he has a list of possible candidates and that he had placed a call to the Commisioner's office to learn more about some of the up and comers in the ranks of assistant general managers throughout the game. A plan has been formulated. A timeline somewhat set. There is work to be done in the coming weeks.
I spoke with Mather twice today. Once in the group media session this morning and again when I interviewed him for the pre game show. A number of things jumped out at me from both interviews.
