Something To Look Forward To
I know you’re all gonna be depressed after this election with nothing to look forward to, so I know you’ll feel blessed by this promise.
Curt Schilling, yes, that Curt Schilling, says he’s gonna run against Senator Elizabeth Warren.
Well, let’s see here.
First there’s his excellent business sense:
Schilling made the comments during an extended interview with WPRO host John DePetro, during which he fielded call-in questions from Rhode Islanders for the first time about the collapse of his video-game company, 38 Studios, which received a $75-million taxpayer-backed loan in 2010. The firm’s bankruptcy two years later left taxpayers on the hook for roughly $90 million.
And his great personality:
In 1996, he made Esquire’s Top Ten Most Hated Athletes, and he hasn’t improve at all since then.
Plus, he’s a big ole giant Donald Trump supporter.
I don’t think there’s a sports fan or a politics fan on God’s green earth who would not thoroughly enjoy watching Elizabeth Warren kick Schilling’s butt across Massachusetts.
Not so good with pronouns either. (“Her and I”)
1Maryelle, was just noticing the same thing: “…her and I feel how this would affect our marriage and our children.” I don’t her has an opinion, but maybe she would 🙂
I’m also betting that her will change his mind on this decision.
2He thinks he is in on the Con. Turns out he is just one of the Con’ed.
3I know he is a dingbat wingnut with little or no understanding of the electoral process, but, wouldn’t he necessarily have to move to Mass from Rhode Island to be eligible to get his butt kicked back to Rhode Island-with or without the little lady and kids?
4Maryelle, how did you get mixed up with her? 🙂
5Firing on all cylinders, this one.
A Tea Partier/Trump supporter plans to run IN MASSACHUSETTS! That ought to work out every bit as well as his video-game company.
Btw – in today’s world, how does one manage to screw up A VIDEO-GAME COMPANY to the tune of a $90 million bill that gets handed off to the taxpayers?
Oh, yeah, this guy should do well.

Oh, and here’s a tip: When unsure which pronouns to use when speaking of more than one person, remove one of the principles from the sentence.
IE
“It will come down to how SHE feels.”
Then reinsert the second person back into the sentence. No need to understand subjective vs. objective rules. Just sound it out.
One has to wonder if he thinks the guy holding the “Get a clue Morans!” sign was a spelling bee finalist.
6In Massachusetts, he can’t think he’s actually going to win, can he? Does he get to keep the campaign funds donated to him? Maybe he’s broke and finds schmoozing the public an easy way to bring in cash.
7He’s as gutsy gritty a ball player as there ever was. Never heard of him ever not having head right with ball. Due Props given. None of that, however, qualifies him to run for any elected office. See Drumpf Rule.
8Aside from this clown’s numerous problems discussed above, we have “I’ve made my decision. I’m going to run. But I haven’t talked to my wife and it’s going to come down to how her and I feel it would….”
Dude, that’s not a decision. You haven’t made a decision if her has any input her hasn’t had a chance to give you yet.
And I wouldn’t mind seeing Warren kick his butt across Massachusetts and into Narragansett Bay. Deep.
9Won’t be any relief pitcher to come in when Elizabeth hands hI’m his……hat.
10So he’s going to run unless his wife refuses her permission? Great start.
I certainly hope he does run. He would be a gift to Warren just as Trump is a gift to Clinton.
11Was he ever hit in the head with a pitched ball?
12Baseballs have more integrity than that, maggie.
13He’s as delusional as The Donald. He will be sent packing with his bloody sock trailing behind him. I was gonna say tucked between his legs, oh heck, I just did.
14Republicanism, everything you’ve hated in a human being, and more!
15Whaddya mean, nothing to look forward to after the election?
I an eagerly anticipating November 28, when Trump’s true believers all go to the polling places.
16If any election between Shilling and Warren were calculated as a differential in their I.Q. scores, this might be the largest landslide in Massachusetts history.
17I’m with “her”.
18Kick him all the way to NH.
19He and Scott Brown can commiserate about the whipping they both have/ will receive from Elizabeth Warren.
On the plus side, in one of my weekly commutes, the Trump signs decreased from 5 to 2.
