Blackcatter,

If I'd known you had to work with broken ribs, I would have sympathized at the time.

You're a nice guy, but you are being kind of a jerk about Schilling. He didn't just "have to work hurt." He shut down the Yankee lineup for seven innings, something 90% of major league pitchers can't do at a hundred percent. He did it the day they stitched the skin of his ankle to the bone in order to hold his achilles tendon in place. He didn't have to do it (as you can imagine, he'd still be a millionaire if he did not do it). He chose to do it, for the love of his team. So forgive me for feeling like he gave it a little something extra.
