Hey Dan,

I really love the sound of the position. As a Leafs fan it'll be slightly awkward writing about the Wings, but I'm sure I can come up with something :) haha

The only issue right now would be scheduling conflicts, which is why my writing has slowed a bit the past week. I'm currently working on a Morning show here in London, which has me working some strange hours and short on spare time. It's only until February 27th though, so after that I'll be able to set up a consistent schedule if that works for you. Get back to me...

Thanks a lot man,

BT

Dan, as the Cubs community leader, a belated welcome to the site.

We're always looking for fresh Cubbie talent, so I would love to see a Cubs contribution from you in the near future, if you feel like it. If you need any help, don't hesitate to contact me.

In the meantime, here's my latest on what Jim Hendry may be thinking:

Dan,
Thanks for the post! I sent you an email, however, in case you don't receive it, I would love the position if it is still available. I thank you for your interest and look forward to working with you.
