No offense Bill, but that guy is just a professional sports verion of Rush LIMPbaugh. ABSOLULTELY needing to hear his voice and stickin' his nose in everyone else's business because he is no longer in the limelight.
Freakin' windbag....
I do have strong opinions....but I do NOT need to be heard. I was never in the limelight and more than likely never will.

Curt Schilling played baseball on the same team as Manny. That alone makes his opinion worth listening to. This is when I have to laugh because Curt has to be one of the smartest players around. Not only did he win without Steroids, he doesn't allow the media to "filter " his comments.

Salsa, I've said MANY times on here that I wish Schilling would just shut up and pitch. Yes, he was a huge part of two championships here in Boston, but the man has an opinion for everything!
That being said, I think he was right on the money with this particular blog. :up
Yet, never had the balls to say anything in Manny's face when "Manny was being Manny"...!
Neither did the Red Sox for that matter. Thye could have nipped ANYTHING Manny was doing in the bud years ago, but guess what? WITHOUT HIM, they don't win their World Series championships. SO them bitching is nothing but spilled milk....especially from Mr. Schilling. Is he "one of the smartest players around" because HE said so? LMAO! Mr. Schilling has his opinion and he is allowed to express it.....but it seems that every time there is a chance of him disappearing, he ALWAYS makes sure ALL OF THE MEDIA knows what HIS opinions are....just to say...."hey there, I am STILL relevent...!"

They did try to nip it . A few of the Red Sox players including Curt Schilling said Manny had fines and other disciplines that were never made public. They kept it in house. But look at what an idiot Manny is. He didn't even understand that his behavior while with the Red Sox might hurt him when he tried to sign a new contract with other teams. I believe it was the reason the Yankees didn't want him. I will match Schillings brain against Manny's brain any day of the week.
And please, Don't read his blog if you don't like it. He's not forcing you to go read it.
Schilling's comments definitely are better than the usual "white bread" comments you get from athletes, especially the ones that still playing. I might not agree with all of his comments, but it sure the hell beats "Well the (insert team or player name here) are a great (team or player) that just came up on the wrong side today, blah, blah, blah........."
I wonder what Manny would say in his blog. Hmm
Hi Everyone, I'm back. Went to the bathroom behind the Stadium on the way to the game today. Nobody saw me so I'm safe . Don't tell anyone , Ok? . I just finished level 4 of Pac Man. That's all for today, Gotta go take my "vitamins".

Hmmm....A couple of points of his column:
- He stated that HE doesn't think that the World Series wins are tainted. SO, IF Manny was not on the team, they win those World Series....or even get there? Really? The Red Sox had an AMAZING run during the World Series....and without Manny, they MAY have never made the playoffs, much less win the World Series.
- He also states he "appreciates guys like Andy Pettit" ??!! REALLY? Seriously....a so-called born again christian that never came clean with WHAT he took and for how long??!! "Appreciate"?!! Really??
- Charles Barkley FOR YEARS has been preachin' "I am not a role model...!" But NOW since Schilling is preachin' it...well....this is different....

This is true to a certain extent, but listening to "Curt on the car phone" give his opinion on almost anything, can get pretty tiring after a while.
I don't read his blog AT ALL....I just happen to read it because he made an issue AGAIN about making sure HIS point of view was read. ALL the good points of his article have been said by others MANY TIMES OVER....but it MUST be better because Curt is saying it...

Well, there is the "don't listen" option.
I don't hear him, except second hand from ESPN, so maybe I shouldn't comment at all about this. What i have heard is kind of like hearing from Barkley or Shaq, like I said, not the usual "white bread" commentary.

I love it when I listen to ESPN take words from his blog(They select the words ) and report it. All it makes me do is go to his website and read the full story , not just what they report as a headline. The Sports Writers have been doing this for years. Taking one part of a statement the player makes in a locker room and turning it into a headline.
Players make comments in the locker room and it's taken out of context and used as a headline. Then the player has to come out and explain it. It happen to Jim Rice from the Red Sox years ago and he didn't like it. He let the reporter know that he didn't like it as well.
Sadly, this is 21st century "journalism". Entertainers and politicians suffer the same problems with these damned snippets of information.
