glad this wasn't us...
i'm sure everyone remembers back in november when the cards had interest in curt schilling. seemed like a lot of the community here was in favor of signing him to a 1-year deal, and even schilling was agreeable to the idea. however, things didn't progress too far beyond that as it turned out. he re-signed rather quickly with the red sox, leaving it up for debate as to whether he merely used the cards (and other interested teams) as leverage with boston.
well, if we only knew then what we know now: it looks like his shoulder is in really bad shape. could require surgery, threatening most of this season if not his career. yikes. while it's sad to see just about any player get hurt, i'm extremely thankful that it's the sox on the hook for this lost season from schilling and not the cardinals.

They DIDN'T give him a physical?

yes they did,

Yup
Although, I have a feeling he was already hurt and they knew it, they just hoped he would be able to hold it together. But this would just be speculation.

If the Sawx...

I can't believe they knew
If they did know, then they didn't understand the severity which is completely uncalled for. How can you not know when it's apparantly this bad?
I'm guessing whoever did the physical/evaluation and gave the "thumbs up" is sweating this one out.

Well
You're right though...Whoever gave the eval most definately has some questions to answer I'd imagine.
