Curt Schilling Running For Ted Kennedy’s Seat In the Senate?

Boston - Add another name to the growing list of pols and would-be pols eyeing a run for Edward M. Kennedy’s Senate seat: former Red Sox ace Curt Schilling.  That’s right, Mr. Bloody Sock himself told NECN’s Brad Puffer in an interview today that he has been “contacted” about a possible Senate run and has not ruled it out. “I’m not going to divulge the discussions, but I’ve been contacted by people whose opinion I give credence to and listen to, and I listened,” Schilling said.

As a Yankee hater down to my very core, I can’t deny that I was a big Schilling fan for a while.  He dominated the shit out of them in 2001 on the D’backs.  And when he went to the Sox in 2004 and flat out said the reason he was brought there was to beat the Yankees, and then delivered, it was a pretty badass moment.  But here’s the reality of the matter:

Dude does not SHUT. THE. FUCK. UP.

It’s insane.  For some reason, he always pops up on the radar talking shit about things he has no fucking clue about.  Why the fuck was he even at those Congressional steroid hearings?  And didn’t he run his mouth about Barry Bonds cheating on his wife and his taxes?  I mean seriously, dude sqwauks all day like a goddam broad.  So this idea that he would actually be a fucking Senator is nauseating.  What can Curt Schilling possibly know about being a U.S. SENATOR?  The fact that I’m even typing this sentence is mind boggling.  And lets call a spade a spade – if a member of The Nation actually has some semblance of control over the actual Nation, I think we can all agree our government is heading down the fucking tubes.
