Can Curt Schilling Please Go Away

In news that is sure to make you want to vomit, Curt Schilling has proclaimed interest in being the successor to Ted Kennedy in the US Senate. Yep, Curt and his bloody sock have some interest in delegating American policy. Excuse me for a few seconds as I punch a hole in the wall and curse for a few seconds..... Ok better.

First of all this whole thing is non news. There is ZERO possibility that Curt Schilling is going to take over the Massachusetts Senate seat. He has zero experience, zero ties to anything involving Ted Kennedy, hell I don't even think he's a democrat. Why the hell does the media even take him seriously? If he said he wanted to be an astronaut would ESPN report that too?

Secondly, who the hell would vote for him? He's just a loudmouthed over opinionated former baseball player with zero experience. Why would anyone choose to vote for you over anybody in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts who actually is qualified and actually could make meaningful change in policy. Its not like we're replacing a US Senator that had zero influence. So I would pray that the state of Massachusetts would not vote him in.*

Please Curt, just fade away, you're terribly annoying.

*On second thought, I bet Tawmmy from Quinzee and all his buddies would vote for him.

We just elected a president that has the same experience as Curt Schilling, so why not?

The reason he'll lose is because he's conservative, and the people's republic will never elect a conservative senator. I'd vote for him over a random Kennedy douche bag.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

Guest Post: Thoughts on Sabathia Signing

I asked Grutt what his thoughts were on the Sabathia signing and I thought his response pretty much nailed it. So here it is. I don’t know. Every year I get a little more disenchanted with baseball. Yea, it’s great we signed the top pitching free agent. But we were supposed to. No team was even in the ballpark of the Yankees offer yet they still needed to jump from the already ridiculous price of $140 million to $160 million to close the deal. Now I hear we are going to sign more pitchers who will also get large contracts and the position player gaps are still glaring. Each new, large contract just adds to the feeling that the Yanks are supposed to win it all. “I think we have a good chance this year.” That is a lost feeling. If they don’t win I’ll wonder why, like there has to be some other reason besides that it’s a sport you can never predict how things will work out and some years just aren’t yours to be won. If they win I will be pleasantly smug. It gets a little more...
