Curt Schilling

John McCain asked Big Schill to run for Senate

CNN reports. Schilling has yet to say if he's running.

Schilling says he'd only serve one term

Curt Schilling posts his platform, which is a lot more nuanced than you might think (look at the section on the Second Amendment or on his support for pro-choice Charlie Baker).

Also includes this statement:

I live in a state where I can't drive 1/2 of a mile without a torn up road, or on a major highway without paying a toll, a large toll.

Kind of interesting that Schilling's never driven on 128 or 93 or 95 or 3 or 495.

If Big Schill runs, he'll have to do it as an independent

EaBo Clipper checks and finds Curt Schilling is registered as unenrolled, not Republican.

Meanwhile, Lance reposts his first-in-the-nation call for Schilling to run for Senate - back in 2006.

Curt Schilling: Don't blame Mannywood for your own kids' problems

Schilling says stop worshiping ball players, just accept the fact that tons of players (but not him, he hastens to add) juiced up, and don't you dare suggest 2004 is now "tainted:"

... Relish in the Halladays, Rolens, Sabathias, Lowells, Counsells, Variteks, Garnetts, Jameses, Bruschis, Vrabels, the Jason Bays of the world. Relish in men of supreme character and tireless work ethic who respect the game and their teammates and suit up every day to leave it all on the field. If 100 more names come out I can still give you my word there are a lot more great men and phenomenal people in the game than not ...

Then go home and raise your own damn kids with your own set of values, integrity and morals. Be accountable to them and responsible for them and stop blaming video games or the 25-year-old kid from the Dominican who can hit a baseball 455 feet but you don't know and never will, for the "problems of today's youth". It starts and ends under your own roof. Your kids idolize the people you allow them to, and believe things you don't refute or discuss, and that's no one's fault but your own.
...

Meanwhile, Comcast SportsNet interviews Jonathan Papelbon about Mannygate.

... I don't know who that guy is. He quit on me, he quit on our team ...

This is the deal, regardless of what you take and regardless what you put in your body, every year at Spring Training they give us a long list in Spanish and in English of what you can do and what you can't do. There are no excuses.

Good news/bad news on Curt Schilling's house

The good news: He's reduced the price of his Medfield estate by 37.5%, so it's priced to moooove. The bad news: That means it's still going to set you back $5 million.
