Maybe the other teams didn't report it yet. Why would he pull his name just from the Red Sox? Or maybe Boston is a bad fit for him and he decided not to waste his time or theirs. It is well known that his daughters go to college in the DFW area and that he just built a house. He has a good thing going so I am sure there will be, as there always is, some family consideration. But if he decided he didn't want to manage, he would have pulled the plug entirely, which he hasn't done. How would he know it's a bad fit without a interview? Why would Chicago be better for his family?
