April 26 -- SCHILLING STUNNER

So, evidently, Orioles stellar play-by-play man Gary Thorne mentioned during last night's O's-Red Sox broadcast on MASN that Sox catcher Doug Mirabelli told him Curt Schilling's famous "bloody sock" during the 2004 ALCS against the Yankees was actually filled with paint, not blood.

Naturally, this is causing quite the flap in Boston. Mirabelli is vehemently denying that he ever said that. Schilling is angry. And the entire game story in today's Boston Globe is focused on the issue. In a stunning upset, Schill hasn't weighed in on it yet on his blog 38pitches.com, although I'm sure it's only a matter of time.

Your thoughts?
