Schilling leaning toward retirement
Curt Schilling says he's leaning "very heavily" toward retirement and is waiting until spring training approaches to see if he wants to try to pitch again. The Boston Red Sox right-hander, who underwent season-ending shoulder surgery on June 23, said in his most recent blog entry that his shoulder "is getting better fast" and "I've still got a rather lengthy amount of time before I decide anything." Still, he said on 38pitches.com that "the pendulum is swinging very heavily in the direction of it just being over. I've never sat around and not gotten ready to head to Florida, well not in 23 or so years anyway, so to me that will likely be the last real test for me and whether or not I want to put the time and effort into getting after it one more time."

At least he got the Red Sox to pay several million dollars for his first year of retirement.

Good, the sooner, the better. But now, he'll be on Fox&Friends by December.

Schill if you are gonna do it, do it after the season and please do not talk about it during the regular season and post season. The Sox (your team that is paying you $8 million to do nothing) are in a dog fight to make the playoffs; we really do not want to hear from you now ---- and your teammates do not need any distractions. Be a good boy and earn your $8 million staying quiet

Please dude, lean all the way to that bloody floor by your ugly right ankle. Just make sure your under the camera view so we don't have to see you anymore. And let's hope you hurt your jaw so you won't talk either.

Why retire? If someone paid me $8 million a season to do absolutely nothing, I'd stick with that position as long as I could.
