Curt Schilling is a douche


SAWX fan enjoying a night with Schilling's bloody WS relic.









Apparently, according to ESPN.com, Curt Schilling has signed a one year deal with the SAWX worth $8 million plus incentives. Schilling went on to his website (38pitches.com/hostess) to tell all of his fans (i.e. him and his wife) of all the exciting details of the contract!

"[Red Sox General Manager Theo Epstein] and I have spoken multiple times daily over the past week and given the current situation I am feeling very confident that we will be able to finalize a 1 year contract to allow us a chance to finish our career as members of the Red Sox organization."

Got to love the "our" placement there. Where did he learn english? Is that a second person reference? I know he's fat and all, but is he really two people? If he is, in fact, two seperate people, then wouldn't it be "Our careers"? By the way, one of the clauses on the contract is a $2 million "weight clause". This from a team that fielded Rich Garces.

Anyway, Hemingway, this is a good move because schilling is loved by the fans of Boston (and Philly, that's it) and comes somewhat on the cheap. It's a good move for Schilling because he gets to bask in a big city spotlight for one more year and because the Sox threw in a $200 Dunkin Donuts gift card to sweeten the pot.
