I'm sure he's probably heard a cliche quote like this before.

Curt should have used his own philosophy in his business dealings.

Thought Schilling would tell him to start juicing like he did to get to the next level

Surprised it wasn't "don't start a video game company with zero experience with video games"

Interesting considering early in his career that Roger Clemens had a sit down with Schilling in the astrodome, about Schilling's lack of work ethic.

No he didn't.

Hs business model was screwed from the get go. That game would have had to sell more than massive successes like Uncharted and Halo to have any shot at being profitable. He set himself up for failure b/c he didn't know what the hell he was doing.

Calculated risks*

He banked on legislation changing. Never put your neck on the guillotine with politicians holding the ax.
