I enjoy it just as much when Shaughnessy goes after Schilling. Those two deserve each other.

Yeah, nothing like being upset at a media member who called him out for making $8M this past season for doing nothing on the Red Sox. Right- great effectiveness. I really like this quote from Schilling “You flip-flop more than an epileptic toad.”

Schilling is the worst thing to happen to WEEI and I hope he just goes away.

Stay classy Curt and Bruce….

WOW 30 years! Looking back on time…..this is what makes you feel oh so old. When i get down about life….i pop in bobby orr’s greatest hits set to carly simon’s “Nobody Does It Better” from YouTube. Its great! That ceremony to this day I can remember made me cry. It was to early. He was too young. We were robbed of more “Rembrandt” type of talent on the ice. We were the much poorer because of it!

Gotta give Schill props for using CHB’s real initials. And yep, CHB clearly has a problem with non-white players. Funny how the Globe still thinks people subscribe because of him. CHB has the cojones of a defense attorney with a balloon mortgage payment coming due.

Oh My God.

That Schilling piece on Shaughnessy is spot on…..especially the dichotomy about how he treated Pedro and Clemens after each left the ballpark early.

Here’s a hint as to why: the GM at the time of Clemens’ departure was the media’s favorite whipping boy, with the initials DD; by the time Pedro was cutting out early in Baltimore, the 17-percent’ers at the Globe had their own boy Theo in the GM chair.

Thus, with Pedro, he was the bad guy and the Sox were innocent victims. With Clemens, the evil DD was the bad guy, so Clemens was perfectly within his rights to duck out early–and then to to Toronto, where he found the chemical fountain of youth that enabled him to reverse what was clearly a career in steep decline when he left Boston in 1996, a fact that very few of his media defenders, like the CHB, have ever acknowledged. (The numbers don’t lie on this one, and I’ll cite them if I have to.)
