Except Schilling pitched the 2004 red sox to their first World series championship since 1918 WITH a bloody foot no less. Don't mess with Bostons sports heros.

It does more than pale. dude was a baseball player. a man who made many many millions playing a game, games most people can't afford to take their families to see. a baseball player? pffft. if anyone votes on that or takes it into consideration at all, they get the govt they deserve. Exactly. I happen to be into baseball but why would I expect my politician to be into as well. IMO it has nothing to do with their job description. Unfortunately, many Rs don't see it that way. If she doesn't know who Schilling is, she shouldn't be in office. If you can't go have a beer with your prez like with Bush, then he shouldn't be president. Its that kind of thinking that helps to insure we get idiots into office.
