Glad he is standing up for his beliefs. I don't agree with the comment but I don't want him to apologize even if they threaten to fire him. It's his fricking right.

It's also ESPNs right to fire his arse. Schilling is annoying.

I agree with people voicing their opinions, but if he gets fired it's his fault. Last time I checked, he needs to job too.

He has the freedom to say what he thinks. However, most people who have jobs in the public eye understand that compensation comes with the potential for loss of freedom of expression - or failing to self-censor, the loss of employment.

If you cross over the line between what you're paid to talk about and talking about other things (esp which are controversial) then you take that risk.

In this case, he's not wrong. I'm shocked that the network that gave Bruce Jenner the Arthur Ashe courage award would want to fire shilling for hving that opinion. Shocked I tell ya.

I'm surprised that they didn't fire schilling a while ago. He's been saying shite like this for years.

People who start a thread about a quote or picture and don't post that quote or picture deserve a special place in hell

Yes he has a right to his beliefs and the government cannot and should not Do anything about it. But he doesn't have a right to a job at ESPN or anywhere else.

I wouldn't be that surprised if ESPN put him up to it. One argument looks good when the other side is given by a racist alcoholic

Curt Schilling is right with his comment. Trans people have a mental illness.


ESPN needs to stay out of the politics and stick to covering sports.

Libs are open minded, but the minute you disagree with them, they become the most closed-minded people.

I definitely agree with Schilling here. Look, if you're a man who turned into a woman who feels like a man but likes to dress like a woman that fricks dogs, then you are not allowed in the girls bathroom where my daughter is supposed do her business.

I'm fricking sorry, the line has to be drawn somewhere.

Schilling sucks. I don't care about what he said but he's always been a look at me douchebag

How did we get to the point where the idea that a man should use the men's room is somehow seen as backwards??
How did we get to the point where saying such an idea was seen as bigoted and controversial and fire able?
