Curt Schilling is like a super hero in a comic book. Just when you think he's down for the count, he finds some way to throw himself back into the picture and vanquish his foes.
Curt underwent his shoulder surgery yesterday and Dr. Morgan said that #38 can begin some light throwing in as little as 4 months. The rotator cuff hadn't torn like they thought it did and the surgery was declared a success. Schilling could be pitching off a mound by January at the earliest.
Not to spit in the face of Red Sox management and doctors but wouldn't the situation have been solved if they had let Curt undergo the surgery months ago?

After getting hit in the eye with a baseball between innings during last night's game, Kevin Youkilis underwent some tests and they all came back negative for fractures and anything too serious.
Unfortunately his eye was still watering and swollen when he got to Fenway today so the team has sent him to an eye specialist to get it checked out. He won't be starting in tonight...

Schilling's Legacy
When Curt Schilling broke from Thanksgiving dinner in 2003 with Red Sox General Manager Theo Epstein, I doubt even he knew what the next five years would hold for him. And if the last four seasons in a Red Sox uniform are his last in a baseball uniform, no one can deny that the big fella left a pretty indelible legacy on a city rich with legacy.

Jonathan Papelbon is always entertaining... his latest installment - a Milli Vanilli impression.
Annnnd He's Rounding Third, heading for home!!….
It's late in the game. High Drama. The crowd is going crazy, chanting all sorts of things. The runner on second is a tall, lanky outfielder. The big outfielder wearing a number in the teens hears the crack of the bat, and makes his way to third. The third base coach waves him around. The right fielder scoops up the ball and fires a frozen rope from medium-depth right to...
