Schilling himself

Curt Schilling, Internet-savvy Boston Red Sox pitcher, has taken to commenting on blogs. If you ask me, which nobody did, I’d say it’s important to take his actions in our little corner of the Internet as the actions of a man who’s experimenting. People express themselves on the Internet every day. First-time blog commenters make mistakes; everyone has to get used to the culture of a particular web board when they start reading it.

Curt’s gonna be the same way. I don’t particularly care if he’s a Major League Baseball player; I’m personally inclined to cut him the same slack I’d cut anyone new to the game. Which is to say not an infinite amount, but I gotta figure he won’t be perfect.
