'''Curt Schilling''' (born November 14, 1966 in [[Anchorage]], [[Alaska]]) is a retired [[American]] [[baseball]] player.  A starting pitcher for most of his major league career, he played on three [[World Series]] winning teams, the 2001 [[Arizona Diamondbacks]], the 2004 Boston Red Sox and the 2007 Boston Red Sox. He is known throughout baseball for his quick wit, friendly nature, and [[conservative]] ideology.  He helped elect [[Scott Brown]] in a spectacular upset victory for the [[U.S. Senate]] seat in 2010, and Schilling was suspended by [[ESPN]] in 2015 for merely tweeting that the the percentage of Muslims who are extremists today is comparable to the percentage of Germans who were [[Nazis]] in 1940.  Schilling later tweeted "I understand and accept my suspension. 100% my fault. Bad choices have bad consequences and this was a bad decision in every way on my part."<ref>https://twitter.com/gehrig38/status/636262473826463744</ref>

The Diamondbacks acquired Schilling to pitch alongside [[Randy Johnson]] in an attempt to win their second straight NL West crown. Although Schilling piched well, the team went only 29-32 the rest of the way and finished a distant third. Schilling re-signed with Arizona and in 2001, Schilling and Johnson's first full season together, the team won the World Series by defeating the New York Yankees. The duo was named co-MVP's for their effort.<ref>http://espn.go.com/mlb/playoffs2001/s/2001/1104/1273636.html</ref>
