Schilling rips Yankees and NY fans

Stick a big red sock in it. Big Apple-bashing Boston pitcher Curt Schilling unloaded on New York's "bitter and miserable" fans Tuesday, mocking the Yankees and picking the Patriots to whip the Jets this weekend. Schilling ripped New Yorkers for reveling in the season-ending injury to Tom Brady — and then rubbed buckets of salt in the wounds of Yankees' fans in a nasty Boston radio appearance.
"The Yankees suck this year, and they're bitter and mad and they're making excuses over that," the over-opinionated Schilling said on WEEI-AM. "Now they've got Tom going down, so New York's excited."
Schilling, yet to throw a pitch this year due to a shoulder injury, showed his motormouth was in All-Star form as he continued his rant.
"The sad part is going to be when [the Patriots] beat the Jets," added Schilling, predicting a possible 11-5 finish for the Brady-free Patriots this season.
The veteran has memorably lashed out at New York before, ridiculing the Yankee mystique, detailing his delight in making Yankees fans "shut up" and criticizing Alex Rodriguez.
This time, his diatribe went beyond just fans of the pinstripers, painting local sports rooters with a broad and brutal brush

I hate both cities but at least you're not stuck trying to steal *shudder* the Bills.

 

I appreciate his enthusiam/effort to take NY fans down another notch, but shut up already.

 

Yeah, cause Schilling is contributing lots to the Sox. Is it really "we"?

 

Ask Jessica Simpson

 

Good for Schilling. New York spends such a ridiculous amount of money on baseball every year that they have no excuse to not be a top team. What excuses can they make? Baseball needs a salary cap or at least some sort of auxillary precaution to stop the evil empire from "buying" their success.

 

I think Schilling thinks I'm a fan of his but I'll never be. lol.

You mean, like, a luxury tax? Or sharing revenue? I doubt that will ever happen.

Please, look at the true dynasty teams from 98-200. Buying success my buttocks.

 

I never said that all dynasties buy their success, simply the Yanks. I really believe that their is a correlation between success and money spent in baseball.

 

The dynasty team of 98-2000 was the Yanks. You know, that whole 3 in 3 and 4 in 5. Kind of a big deal :/

 

He reads your site!

About the "buying wins" thing...the Yanks have money, why shouldn't they spend it on players? Because it's not fair to other teams?

 

I'd be happier if we spent the 20 mil we gave to Jeter / year on scouting international players.

 

Yup how they use the money is an entire different story.

 

That 32 mil we gave to Pettitte could have been much better off given to young players.
