Hiring David Ross as manager would be a step in the same direction for Cubs

Being a former “Dancing with the Stars’’ competitor should not disqualify a man from becoming the manager of a major-league baseball team. But it could become problematic if he has to discipline two players for doing a rendering of the death scene from “Romeo and Juliet” on the field during the seventh-inning stretch.

“I just wanted to express myself like you did as a dancer!’’ one will say to the manager.

“Why did he get to play Juliet and not me?’’ the other will say.

So you can see the issue if David Ross becomes the Cubs’ next manager.
