4. Curt Schilling

“Between the white lines, it’s all real,” says one reporter who has
covered Schilling. “But outside the white lines, there’s a huge gap between
the man and the image he projects.” Take, for instance, Schilling’s
self-glorifying display during Congress’s steroid hearings last March or his
absurdly patriotic open letter to America on ESPN.com after 9/11, for which
his teammates mocked him on a late-night bus ride with a chorus of “I’m a
Yankee Doodle Dandy.” “They know what he’s about,” says the sportswriter.
“I’d say a large percentage of them like him—every fifth day. He wears on
people.”

On days he doesn’t pitch, Schilling is notorious for striking TV-ready poses
on the dugout stairs. (His manager in Philadelphia, Jim Fregosi, dubbed him
Red Light Curt.) “He’s somebody who’s always positioning himself in terms
of what’s best for Curt Schilling,” says ESPN’s Pedro Gomez, who described
Schilling as “the consummate table for one.” (Speaking of which, Schilling
also has a reputation for sneaking into the clubhouse late in games to get a
head start on the buffet.)

So avid is Schilling’s longing for the spotlight that some of his peers
raise doubts about his now legendary turn in the 2004 postseason, when he
pitched on an ankle tendon that had been sutured in place. During Game 6,
cameras cut repeatedly to the bright red stain on Schilling’s sock. It was
blood, right? “The Diamondbacks people think he definitely doctored that
sock,” says the sportswriter. The ex-teammate laughs: “All around baseball,
people questioned that. It was funny how the stain didn’t spread.”


RJ討厭他不是沒有理由的啊，Redsux要他也不是沒理由的，
反正clubhouse那麼亂，不差這一個...。
