King Schill needs to get crowned

Curt Schilling needs to get taken down a few pegs . . . let’s face facts, the reason most sports fans deal with him and his inflated ego is because he has been a thorn in the side of the hated New York Yankees . . .

Since winning the world over after his "tear jerking" performance in the ALCS and World Series last year, Schill has been running from the mouth as if God, or at least the ghost of Happy Chandler, made him "premier of baseball" . . .

After a series of beanballs on Sunday between the Red Sox and Devil Rays, which have been on going for the last few years, his "royal highness" spoke about the atrocities committed by Tampa manager Lou Piniella . . . King Schill proclaimed,

"The problem is when you're playing a team with a manager who somehow forgot how the game is played, there's problems. This should have been over a little bit ago. Lou's trying to make his team be a bunch of tough guys, and the telling sign is when the players on that team are saying, 'This is why we lose 100 games a year, because this idiot makes us do stuff like this.' They [Rays players] said that on the field."

It’s funny how Schilling is all high and mighty and "knows how the game should be played" . . . it took him a while because for the early part of his career, Schilling was a screw up who never lived up to his potential . . . but I guess after beating the Yankees, King Schill feels he is the authority of the league . . .
