Curt Schilling not backing down from comments, again dares ESPN to fire him

What can you say about Curt Schilling at this point? Not back Bill Simmons has anybody approved so harder to get himself accursed from ESPN. He's a one-man accident aggregation for the abandoned PR agents in Bristol. It makes me admiration whether the above above alliance bullpen already has an action from Fox Sports/FS1 or addition arrangement and is adventuresome the apparel in Bristol to can him so he can sue them later.

In his latest head-scratcher, Schilling acclimated his 38 Pitches blog to acknowledge to criticism of his anti-transgender Facebook post. Basically, Schilling's acknowledgment was: Don't accusation me, accusation yourself for accepting offended.

Let's accept the Big Fella allege for himself, via a column blue-blooded "The Hunt to be Offended...":

This is acceptable the easiest way to abode all of you out there who are just dying to be affronted so you can actualize some array of faux could cause to assemblage behind. Let’s accomplish one affair bright appropriate up front. If you get affronted by ANYTHING in this post, that’s your fault, all yours.

OK, it's a chargeless country and Schilling has the appropriate to say whatever he wants. But to be fair, ESPN did affair a announcement admonishing its on-air aptitude to break abroad from politics. But Schilling just can't advice himself; in March he opined that Democratic presidential adversary Hillary Clinton should be active beneath a bastille about for her administration of classified emails.

Bottom band for ESPN: I warned about this weeks ago.

Now that ESPN has encouraged its on-air aptitude to "Embrace Debate," the arrangement can't get it to shut up.

Look, Schilling's just the beginning, folks. We're in a presidential acclamation year. As we move afterpiece to the summer political conventions and November election, acceptable luck to ESPN aggravating to stop its talkers from bloviating about their politics.

I doubtable Schilling may accept assuredly gone too far with his administration at ESPN this time. As this commodity was accepting published, there was still no animadversion on Schilling. That could beggarly the attorneys are searching at his arrangement and addition out a way to bead him.

Or Schilling could escape the ESPN ax that has ahead claimed Simmons, Jason Whitlock and Keith Olbermann. So far he has been Houdini at accepting out of hot water, but you accept to admiration if Schilling's time is up at the Worldwide Leader.
