ESPN Removes GM6 (Schilling) from Sox Doc


Figure it's somewhat relevant. In a re-airing of 4 Days in October ESPN removed game 6 known as the Bloody Sock game from the show. ESPN claims it was due to length but everyone knows that's not quite close to the truth. Just another example of nastiness from that criminal organization.

I feel like the best part of The Natural was when they edited out that he was bleeding at the plate.

I think Shilling is a terrible human being and ESPN was completely in the right to fire him but this is really really wrong.

I totally disagree with the first statement. Not going there though. The last part, you're damn right.

Rather than quibbling about politics I think the point is "I think he's scum and I still don't like this." which is what is relevant. I'll go a step further and say that not only am I not a Schilling fan I think baseball is super dumb and I loathe the Sox and yet I still know that the bloody sock game was a big deal and taking it out is just ridiculous.

Another reason why I boycott everything FESPN and Disney. The only exception I make, and I do it under personal protest, is when FESPN is showing the Patriots game live and it's my only source to watch it.

But as soon as the game is over I shower to try and feel clean again.

This is really a stupid thing to get upset about? Just don't watch it

A shame they don't make body wash...

That's not the point. We're talking out-and-out censorship here. Historical whitewashing.

 

[ausbacker]

Pushing aside whatever you think about Schilling and his opinions, this censorship is beyond ridiculous and removes one of the most important storylines in the recent history of the Red Sox, hell the MLB. Imagine removing Butler's interception from SB49 storyline (not that I am saying it is as big a moment but reinforcing the point).

Utterly pathetic but hey, ESPN has form.

Wow.

Let's all pray they never get a hair across their asses about the Patriots.

That would be a bad day. However, I'm pretty sure if such a thing occurred, it wouldn't really register on this forum. Maybe see one or two threads with 5 views.

Why is he a terrible human being?

I think you are completely wrong there, but I'm not going to bring it up.

Just have to find a way to remove Brady and Belichick from SB 49...

 

[oldrover]

I edited out ESPN a long time ago.

[grux]

I didn't realize sports fans still watched ESPN. I cut the cord over a year ago and never visit their website. This news just confirms I made the correct decision.
