I would like your input and would also like you to try and remedy this situation. The CCBL can not afford to pay royalties to MLB and can not survive without MLB influx of the very low $100000.00 that is provided each year. As many MLB players have come from this leagie I am wondering why no one has stepped up to help this league. If MLB has its way we will see the demise of this premier league here on Cape Cod. When the league started my dad, now 88, was a player as wel as many other native Cape Codders. Back then it was Town Team Baseball. It is now a rich enviroment for future Hall of Famers. I am hoping you can maybe get the union to help stop MLB from ruining this league. Thank you. Mr Schilling:

My late grandfather was in the military. Unfortunately, I was never able to meet him, being that he passed away before i was born, but it feels great to be able to say that my grandfather served our country. I am also very glad to be able to say that my older cousin is now training to be a Marine. I am extremely proud of him and everyone else that is brave enough to serve our country. I definitely agree with you that they are all heroes. Good luck recovering from your shoulder injury, hope to see you pitch this season, Theresa ;) Hey, Curt

Plain and simple.

Love you, Curt, but you’re dead wrong here.

US out of the Middle East.

Without you, where would this World be? Also, to all the Sox Players and Personel, who put a smile not only on those Soldiers Faces, but mine as well, Thank You. To watch men, like Wake, Tek, Lowell, Timlin and of course Schill, light up when they greeted the Soldiers, was amazing, to say the least. I'm smiling right now just thinking about that Young Man from MA. God Bless You. Now, onto Manny. I'm not sure how many of your readers listen to WAAF, but sometime last week, after the Sox visited Bush and the Soldiers, they had a bit of a debate whether or not Manny, owes it to his fans to participate in events like these. Anyway, somebody called in, saying they knew Manny personally, and him not going was a snub to George Bush. He claims Manny, is a big fan of Fidel Castro and Che Rivera, and their political ideas. Please, somebody tell me that's not true and they were just playing a joke. (the Hillman Morning Show is infamous for playing jokes) Don't get me wrong, I respect Manny as a ball player, but if this is true, I've pretty much lost all respect for him as an American. I, wonder what Mike Lowell thinks or anybody else for that matter? For arguments sake lets assume it is true. Why wouldn't he at least go visit the Soldiers? No Excuses, for that one. You do not have to like or even respect George Bush, but you must respect our Soldiers, who have given so much, and receive so little in return. That is unforgivable.

Thanks. By the way, Matt Morris waved at me once too - I mean, he was on TV and I was just sitting on my couch eating a bag of Doritos that someone left over on Friday night after the hockey game. It was sort of sticky. I don't understand why Doritos get sticky; maybe it's because the guy who bought them kept licking his fingers after he ate one. I don't know. Anyway, Matt Morris waived and he was sort of facing the direction of the camera - and since I was looking at what the camera was looking at, it was like he was waiving at me. Right? Anyway, I've got to go feed a squirrel. Take It Easy Bill. Bill - that was the funniest thing I’ve read in a long time. Thanks.

Until you're back, I'll miss watching you pitch. I'd rather watch you pitch on your worst day than most other pitchers on their best day. Your fans know you are a man of integrity and will do everything you can to come back 100% as quickly as you can. All the best. Curt - Thank you for your update.

Wow this is pretty cool that I am talking to you, Curt Schilling. So far the highlight of my life was one time when Matt Morris waved at me. I mean... it wasn't like a real wave ,but I'm pretty sure he knew I was there. That was awesome. I mean he actually didn't even really look over. but whatever. anyway today i was in college. at my history of rocks class, and the prof. was making us make speeches. and everyone was making these boring speeches that they just printed off wikipedia. and I was like..."this is totally lame". Then it was my turn, so i went up and started talking about my country which was Russia. and you know how it's really corrupt with Putin and how he spent 21000 dollars on an army of mice. listen. i mean if i had 21000 dollars to spend on an animal army, mice would not be my first choice. i would probably go with great white sharks. but then again the place where i work is very dirty, so there are probably russian spies everywhere. So I was talking about that, and then my prof is like." what does this have to do with rocks!" and i mean i had this whole speech ready about the stupid government and then I was going to start talking about kate hudson and how beautiful she is, and tie that into all the mining they do in Russia, and he was just acting completely like a fat old deusch bag. i mean if u want me to make a speech, i will do it. but dont try to cut me down and interrupt me before i even have the chance to finish. thats just rude, and totally uncalled for. am i right? hey do you know Matt Morris? He is my favorite player. I think your good too though. I was a big Arizona fan when you played for them. and by big fan I mean I owned a hat with a snake on it and I got really mad at Karl Ravich one time when he said that the diamondbacks weren't a good hitting team. o wow its 7:15 PM. I have to go. I have to go live life. Take it Easy Curt Schilling. FROM: BILL Dear Curt Schilling, Hello my name is Bill!
