How is Curt Schilling dealing with a post EPSN life?

Outspoken former Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling is weighing a bid to unseat Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren when she comes up for re-election in 2018.

In an interview Monday with WRKO's "The Kuhner Report," Schilling said he had begun to seriously consider a political career and that one job had caught his eye.
"I thought about it, and one of the things I would like to do is be one of the people responsible for getting Elizabeth Warren out of politics," he said. "I think she's a nightmare and I think that the Left is holding her up as the second coming of Hillary Clinton, but Lord knows we don't even need the first one."

Asked about the ongoing presidential race, Schilling affirmed his support for Donald Trump, but did say he was "not happy at how (Trump) has projected himself at different places and different times."
His comments Monday marked the second time in a little more than a week Schilling had suggested he would consider a career in politics.
In a Facebook comment on August 7, he wrote, "I am going to run, soon."
Schilling could not immediately be reached for comment by CNN.

Curt is the gift that keeps on giving.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

He'd get shelled.

 

[Snake]

Best laugh I've had all day.

 

[NYCmetsfan]

HAHAHA

That's rich coming from him

 

[jack_package_200]

Curt is a piece of shit.

 

[B-Dubs]

At least we'll have some laughs to look forward to after this magical time is over.

 

[JustenP88]

Holy shit. Lmao.

What are the odds he wears that dumb ass bloody sock to a campaign event? Oh no my foot is bleeding what a champ I am.

 

[diablos991]

I wish him the best and wish I could vote in that election.

We need more political outsiders in the political system.

 

[Slime]

ahahahaha

Good luck, scumbag.

 

[djplaeskool]

By all means.
Please try to run against Warren, and get regulated on.

 

[Saint Gregory]

For some reason my mind translated the thread title to "Curt Schilling begs to be ethered into another plain of existence" because that's the only possible outcome of this.

 

[Marvie_3]

Go for it. :lol

 

[platocplx]

PLEASE DO. Let the nation see how much of a idiot you are. He will get destroyed.

 

[Sanjuro]

Holy shit. Lmao.

...yes, he was a champion.

 

[dLMN8R]

I'm sure he'd be just as successful in politics as he was game development.

Though I'm sure he has yet to recognize the irony and hypocrisy around decrying liberal politics when he was personally responsible for squandering a handout from taxpayers to pay for his catastrophic attempt at game development.

 

[jack_package_200]

I hope he does so we can see him continue to make an ass of himself.

I wish him the best and wish I could vote in that election.

We need more political outsiders in the political system.

The last thing the world needs is more hateful shitheads like Trump and Shilling

 

[minor effort]

l o l

please proceed, pitcher

 

[A Link to the Past]

So his approach is to run as a failed businessman and someone who got fired from his job

That's uh, great experienced right there

 

[Hindl]

I wish him the best and wish I could vote in that election.

You should really read into Curt Shilling's past ventures

 

[aeolist]

isn't he broke?

 

[JustenP88]

...yes, he was a champion.

I got a fish pedicure in cancun last week and they made my blisters bleed. You didn't see me throwing my heroism in everyone's face.

 

[Ducarmel]

I hope he runs just to see how he reacts to the media throwing back all the diarrhea that has come out of his mouth.

 

[Applesauce]

I really needed a good laugh, thanks Curt.

 

[Beartruck]

Elections of America: Reckoning.

 

[balladofwindfishes]

I wish him the best and wish I could vote in that election.

We need more political outsiders in the political system.

...like Elizabeth Warren?

She's not exactly a mainstream politician.

 

[AxelFoley]

I hope he does run so EW can destroy him.

 

[Corpekata]

Of course he likes Trump, he has running businesses into the ground in common with him.

 

[A Link to the Past]

You should really read into Curt Shilling's past ventures

Yup. He fucked over taxpayers to make an only decent game and went on to get fired for transphobic comments.

 

[GrantDaNasty]

Don't embarrass yourself anymore, Curt.

Actually, you're a grown-ass man. Go right ahead.

 

[KuwabaraTheMan]

Warren will sock him bloody.

That's rich coming from him

The only rich thing that could be coming from Schilling these days.

 

[Malvolio]

He could throw a ball. What more is needed to be a politician really?

 

[Sanjuro]

He is?

Is this a serious post?

 

[aeolist]

Yup. He fucked over taxpayers to make an only decent game and went on to get fired for transphobic comments.

small correction, he bought (and subsequently destroyed) a studio making a decent game and never managed to produce anything himself

 

[rjinaz]

You should really read into Curt Shilling's past ventures

It doesn't matter if they would be good politicians or not. Burn it all down, doesn't effect me lol!

Is this a serious post?

Yes. Meet diablos991 a bonafide Trump supporter.

 

[Veritigo_X]

I wish him the best and wish I could vote in that election.

Are you sure "outsider" is the word you were looking for? I can think of a better word given your current choice of "outsider" and your wish to support this one.

 

[Alucrid]

he should nickname his campaign project copernicus

 

[rmt92]

I wish him the best and wish I could vote in that election.

We need more political outsiders in the political system.

I just can't understand the benefit of someone being a "political outsider". It often seems to be that political outsider just means celebrities without public service experience run for office.

What do you think Curt Schilling would bring to the table that Elizabeth Warren doesn't?

 

[Sanjuro]

He could throw a ball. What more is needed to be a politician really?

Sell the ball.

 

[Veritigo_X]

What do you think Curt Schilling would bring to the table that Elizabeth Warren doesn't?

White nationalism for one.

 

[Slayven]

Good Luck

 

[TWrecks310]

hahahahahahahahahahahaha

no

 

[Imperfected]

Yeah, we sure do need people who are good at throwing balls and failing at business to be deciding the legal framework for our country moving forward.

Schilling doesn't even have a degree. He's not even qualified to work most menial jobs in the legislature, much less as the legislature.

You guys realize you're quoting a Trump supporter right?

 

[JustenP88]

He is?

Eh, I dunno. Everyone else did. It's been a long time since I've looked twice at a Curtis Schilling quote. Either way, fuck that guy and fuck his socks.

 

[BorkBork]

A bloody sock might be the only thing left of him after Warren gets done.

 

[massoluk]

I imagine it's going to end up like this.

edit: You know what, large GIF is a bad idea.

 

[User1608]

Lmao, this loser has no chance here.

 

[Zereta]

So Donald Trump is lying to the public about his success as a businessman.

What's Curt gonna do? Talk about the countless video games he has developed?

Please.

Also: of course, OF COURSE he supports Trump. Of course.

 

[Buttonbasher]

Curt Schilling has sent me a PM on this very website.
