I am now a Red Sox fan...

I wish I were famous because it'd be a lot easier to fill an auditorium with people and tell them how important it is to keep Kerry from becoming president.

 

Frankly I think what Schilling is doing is very interesting given that he just played uber-hero in the World Series, what with that bloody ankle and all. I'm surprised he wouldn't spend more time tending to that since the iron is hot.

 

Springsteen is Springsteen. His iron is always hot...or at least it stays pretty warm. He can do this anytime. This is Schilling's big moment. And he's cruising around with the President. I find that interesting.

How's Schilling any different than Micheal Moore..He is famous and getting a plug for his candidate.......Granted Schilling didn't make up stories but just said "Vote Bush"...I wish that's all Hollywood or sports or whoever would say...Vote so and so and leave it at that.

I don't mind Shilling (sic) doing what he is doing. He is one of my favorite athletes in all of sports, and he's a great guy. If he wants to support Bush and go on national TV for him and campaign with him, go for it. Just don't complain when Sean Penn or the Dixie Chicks or some other actor or singer or sports guy does it for the Democrats.

 

One GREAT little political thing Schilling just did was during the series his wife told him that the camera was always on his shoe during the first game because of the injury. So the next game he pitched, Schilling wrote KALS on his shoes to promote his favorite cause, Strikeout for ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). I dug that, too.

The heros are fighting in Iraq & Afghanistan - he's just a rich guy who plays baseball for a living.

I compare Schilling to Ben Affleck. He's somebody that supports his candidate and promotes him.

 

He is NOT Michael Moore or any of these other celeberties, who wants anybody that isn't Bush and trashes the opponent every chance he gets, most of them just because its the "cool" thing to do in Hollywood.
