Schilling yaps more about the Yankees

The ever crafty Curt Schilling seems to have come up with a new strategy to try and get the Red Sox to extend his contract.
He keeps talking about how he doesn’t want to play for the Yankees. This, he knows, will be interpreted as he actually does want to play in New York.
Check out these quotes from the huge clown Schilling in the Boston Globe:
“I’m probably one of the worst hated opposing players for their fans. I doubt they’d want me there. It’s got nothing to do with Brian Cashman. I love that guy. And I love Mr. Steinbrenner. But if I went to the Yankees, it would be me walking out of Boston and putting my finger up to the fans.
“I won’t do it. And the dollar value will not tip the scales. If they gave me $25 million to pitch one season in Yankee Stadium, I’d still say no.”
I certainly can’t speak for Brian Cashman. But somehow I don’t think the Yankees would find the idea of signing Schilling appealing for 25 cents. Perhaps he needs to start bringing up the Mets. He’d be a youngster on the staff there.

As I have said before Why oh Why??? The man cant help himself they should add his problem to the Medical Journal.
Schillingitis – Disease of the mouth see diaherrea. Causes patient to comment on anything without thought to truthfulness or if anyone actually cares. There are no current cures.
Excellent! Why can’t executives issue statements along those lines? We need more trash-talk in baseball.
This guy just loooves to hear the sound of his own voice. It’s insane how full he is of himself. All I know is, if Donny Baseball hates you, you’re no good. And my God is that him from this ST? I SWEAR on my life he looks like David Wells from the double chin down.
Don Mattingly hates Schilling?
After the 2004 World Series he completely went off on the guy on Mike and the Mad Dog. He was even questioning his ankle injury and everything. It was fantastic.
Really?!?!?! Damn I didn’t know that. Then again I avoided all thing sports for like 2 months after that travesty.
Schillphyliss
You know, if Schill really was looking for an extension before the season started, he probably should have showed up about 35 lbs below where he is right now. Dude’s got a GUT.
Yeah, Brian Cashman is getting this team younger, more athletic and less expensive. He’s also improving clubhouse chemistry. Schilling fits in that plan….how?
I heard Schilings biggest issue with NY isn’t the fans or his love of the reddsox its that there are not enough McDonalds in a 15 mile radius of the stadium
Pete, you may not be a fan of the Yankees, but it warms my heart to see you rip on Schilling just as much.
Reflaxion,
You don’t need to be a Yankees fan to see Curt Schilling is a tool
“I’d still say no.”
GOOD….we get it. Now shut your gigantic yapper Curt.
I love Mr. Steinbrenner – Wow.
That will really please Rs fans.
Oh, I don’t know about not signing Schilling. If he keeps putting on weight we might get twice the pitcher for the same price
My friends thinks Oliver Perez is going to be the solution to all the Mets’ pitching problems………
Every time I see pictures of Schilling pitch with that gut I keep hoping he is going to tip over and fall face-first into the mound.
Russell,
LOL That’s a good one. They were kidding right? Or are they Met’s fans?
is schilling liked by anyone in baseball? anyone?
Didnt he say he could count his friends on one hand?
holy ponchos! look at the buddha! I thought Sanchez had weight problems… good lord!
“The clothes make me look fat……”
From Schilling’s own keyboard…seriously. LOL
I’m sure Brian Cashman is going to cry himself to sleep tonight. Tomorrow morning, he will tear up all of his papers marked “YANKEES 2008″. For the remainder of the season, he will walk around with a pensive and pained expression, as he attempts to restructure the Yankee organization in the best possible way to recover from this devastating blow.
The thing I always found funny about Schilling landing with the Sox back in 2003 is that the D’backs traded him for 4 minor leaguers (granted one turned into Casey Fossum), but when the Yankees entered the talks the D’backs demanded Soriano plus others – which at the time was a ton to ask for a 35 year old pitcher. In my mind, it was obvious the D’backs gave the Sox a sweetheart deal.
I wish Cashman would make a statement saying that we DO NOT WANT him and will make no effort to go after him in the off season. That would be funny.
….and to think, once his playing days are over, Schilling will be either a politician or on Baseball Tonight.
God help us all.
Curt Schilling would give Jose Mourinho a run for his money. I wish they would both just shut up and go away.
Man, this guy is dying to play for the Yanks.
Hey, Curt? Know why Pedro’s not a Yankee?
Because they didn’t want him.
Living in the Philly area, Schilling couldn’t shut up when he was here. Some of his yap was justified(because the Phillies stunk when he was here). Most of it was just diarrhea of the mouth.
His clothes mahe him look fat? Jeez… his ass makes the stadium look small.
After seeing Schilling on Jeopardy this past fall, I can’t imagine him in politics or as a sports commentator. The man’s got no charisma (aside from all his other shortcomings).

In order for me to hate you Curt, I would have to care that you actually existed…
Schill, if you paid the Yankees $25 mill, we still wouldn’t want you on the team. Now go away, I hear there’s a doughnut buffet somewhere.
Schilling would be right to turn down $25 million for a one year contract with the Yankees. He is worth $25 billion.
I don’t hate Curt Schilling the person; just his never-closed yap.
Schililng is a jackass. Does he think for a mminute that the Yankess would want him?
He’s trying to force himself into Babe/Clemens status by even saying that. Sorry bud, you’re no Clemens.
Cry baby.
Thanks matt, that was one of the best cartoons I have seen in a long long time:

—-
and less talented… Pettitte and Abreau are younger and cheaper how? You guys will be calling for Melky’s head if end up with him for 600 AB’s. Melky may be younger and more athletic but given a full season as a starter his numbers are nothing special.

He’s also improving clubhouse chemistry. Schilling fits in that plan….how?
—-
The fact that he’d be your Ace is a start. Abreau was just as much of a clubhouse problem for the Phillies as Shef was for the Yankees. Everything will magically be ok now? Your GM knows nothing about how to build a team, he inherited the dynasty and has just $pent $pent $pent since then. Don’t hold your breath for a championship.

Rivera said the same thing about the Sox last week. Did you all get your pinstriped panties in a bunch when he said it?
Ooooh, a little testy there s***head, I mean SlicedBread. Were we watching our RedSox finish behind the Blue Jays – again – today? So sorry.
What an asshat.
Talk about trying to create a situation where one doesn’t exist.
I am sure someone will sign Schilling in 2008, but it won’t be us. He’s a wind bag and too many of the players (and fans) can’t stand him
It’s obvious that SlicedBread knows not a damn thing about the way the Yankees have been run in recent years. Hint: last year was the first that Cashman’s had even a semblance of control.
Interesting…
