Farewell Curt Schilling

Yesterday Curt Schilling announced his retirement from Major League Baseball. Curt was one of the top five postseason pitchers of all time and his heroics in the 2004 World Series with the bloody sock was stuff of legend. The championships were truly a team effort but it was Schilling's iron will and determination to "break an 86 year old curse" that will make him one of the biggest heroes in Boston sports. I look forward to listening to him continue to speak his mind on the issues of the day-maybe he will have his own talk show at some point! He even delivered an extremely wholehearted congratulations to Barack Obama on his blog after the 2008 election particularly since he was always a staunch Republican and McCain supporter which I appreciated.
