Still, Curtsy has a shot. It's one of his few unused steroid needles.

His World Series bloody sock might get into the HOF--until they find it fell from his groin area.

(Don't call me a sexist either. I always go "there" in case someone's reading my post to Curtsy.)

I dealt with him for a bit in a different industry and he is a piece of work.

And yes shilling is on smelly Turd. Bumped into him at a Pete Rose autograph table at the old Frontier Casnio. Both a couple of Douche Bags.

I don't like his politics but whatever. He got 70%. He'll be in next year.

I'll repeat: (and that he didn't break any baseball rules)

So that leaves out people like Pete Rose and Shoeless Joe.

Character, integrity and sportsmanship.

It’s the character part that I’m sure is a concern for some voters.

But as we agree, he is prolly inducted next class.

I don't like Schilling's politics, but if his record deserves the Hall, he should be in.
