Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling has been known for his eccentricities, his outspokenness, and his bloody socks. But Schilling has also evolved into something of a tech geek, including starting his own video game studio and his own blog.

As for the latter, Schilling refers to the cadre of sports bloggers as a “cult” and to himself as “out of the loop” of Blogfrica.

Curt Schilling spoke to the media today for the first time about his ailing shoulder. The bacon-laced one made it clear that he would prefer surgery on the joint from personal physician Dr. Craig Morgan, which would apparently have him back by the all-star break. But the Red Sox instead have prescribed a strengthening program with the thought of having him ready for Opening Day and the entire season.

Despite his pledge to invest himself mentally into the Red Sox plan, Schilling made it clear that the only reason he isn’t having surgery is because he has no choice - if he wants to keep his salary. Read more…

Where the MSM’s disdain doesn’t bother us as much as it bothers Shaq:
• Imitation must be the sincerest form of flattery, as The NEW YORK POST appreciates a good animated gif when they see one:

• One of Dan Patrick’s favorite daily web stops has been offline for over a year.
• Some Pro Bowlers are con about taking the trip to Hawaii.
• Bills owner Ralph Wilson says his team’s not shuffling off from Buffalo - yet.
• Now ladies can replace their mother’s milk with a nice merlot, with the booze bra know as the Wine Rack:

• Curt Schilling might not be able to shoulder a whole ‘nother season with the Red Sox.
• New York DC Steve Spagnuolo uses the other D.C. to get a Giant raise.
• Wednesday’s US-Mexico soccer match was such a “friendly” game that two people were shot afterwards.

Curt Schilling, fresh off signing an incentive-laden, one-year $8M deal with the Red Sox, apparently is now hurt.

Nick Cafardo and Gordon Edes of the BOSTON GLOBE report today “Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling is not expected to be ready for the start of spring training because of shoulder issues, much like the ones that caused the club to shut him down for seven weeks last season, according to sources. His availability for Opening Day could also be in question.“
The last few weeks we heard a lot about how the Red Sox weren’t looking to trade for Santana because their rotation was already so strong. Based on the crap the Mets gave up to get Santana, the Bosox now may be wishing they made a more serious run at the lefthander.
Schilling has nothing about the shoulder problem on his blog today. Instead, he posted about Mitt Romney’s problem.
UPDATE: The BOSTON HERALD is now reporting that those farewell letters may have been prophetic.
For Curt Schilling, it appears that life really did begin at 30:

Tracy Ringolsby of the ROCKY MOUNTAIN NEWS notes how the Red Sox pitcher’s prowess improved after reaching his third decade of existence:
“At 30, having played with a Philadelphia Phillies team that included Lenny Dykstra and Pete Incaviglia, who were listed in the Mitchell Report, Schilling had a career record of 52-52.
Since he turned 30, Schilling is 164-94. What’s more, he was 34 before he won 20 games for the first time and has done it three times in the past seven years.”
