I am not entirely sure if this belongs here, but I put a mention of a charitable event that specifically support Curt's Pitch for ALS, of which Curt Schilling and Ronda Schilling have made appearances at, and Schilling has always been on hand at the presentation of the funds to him. Is this appropriate here? -- Ubergenius 17:07, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
Is Schilling's pitching-while-injured stunt during 2004 ALCS Game 6 missing from this article intentionally? Twenty years from now, if affecianados are asked to recall a specific game Schilling pitched, that one would probably be the most memorable. I assume that's as a much a qualification for 'career highlight' as any. 15:26, 5 October 2005 (UTC)EricN
Schilling did not appear in Game 3 of 2004 ALDS as stated in the article; he started and won Game 1 but aggravated his ankle injury in the game.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.204.241.9 ( talk • contribs) 06:11, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
I'm a little surprised not to see any mention of Schilling's faith in the article - after the 2004 Series he was open about being a Christian, and I'm sure it plays a significant role in his life off the field. Ataru 00:21, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

We really need a reference for this. Especially seeing as there's really only one "Providence newspaper" Counterfit 07:17, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
I'm going to add a segment about curt's many superstitions and faiths, as the title goes. If anyone could get a small clip of him jumping over the foul line going into the dugout, I would greatly appreciate it.
I removed this speculation from the main article:
There are also rumors that Schilling is said to retire at the end of the 2007 season. He says that he does not wish to play past 40, to preserve his stats.
If anyone want to find a citation for it, please do. -- JHunterJ 22:06, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
I've heard him say it repeatedly on the radio, though he's given various reasons (time with family, not wanting to go out looking bad). Here's an indirect reference: http://www.all-baseball.com/firebrand/archives/023976.html ActuarialFellow 16:17, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
He took part in a major brawl between the two teams, started by Jason Varitek and Alex Rodriguez, on July 24, 2004. citation needed
Not only as Curt's wife but as his partner in the fight against ALS. She's a major part of that too. She should just be mentioned anyway, regardless. 71.232.62.13 02:07, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
The 2004 Red Sox were not a dark horse team. They were one of the hottest teams in baseball entering the playoffs, and while they weren't a unanimous pick to win the Series, they didn't have the underdog status Schilling's Diamondback and Phillies had.
Why was this left out? It's an amazing feat! 24.61.24.177 22:16, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
The citation to backup the claim that Green Monster Games was not named after the wall at Fenway park references a webpage that does not mention this issue at all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.154.235.211 ( talk) 14:34, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
I noticed that as well and it struck me as very strange. I found a more relevant post to link there and updated the reference. I don't see any proof that the poster is Curt Shilling (granted I didn't look very hard) and I feel dirty using a message board as a reference, but hey, I'm just making sure the link it right. 99.236.151.246 ( talk) 05:52, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
The page has only one sentence about his involvement in speaking out against steroid use. Considering that he has been probably the most vocal opponent of steroid use from within the game, this should probably be given some more coverage here. Chubbles ( talk) 21:14, 13 December 2007 (UTC)
More immediately, where would this section fit in the article? After "conflicts with media"? After "political advocacy"? It would be just as at home in either place. 24.60.166.137 ( talk) 20:50, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
I like the new picture added. The other one showed Schilling a little to old. By the way, does anyone know if Schillings' nickname is Schill.-- RyRy5 ( talk) 21:35, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
I think the details in the red sox section is way to long considering he has only pitched three years as a red sox and given that the section should be more summarized with less details for example if he had a no hit bid but it was broken up that isn't an achievement or something that should be brought up as if it were that important. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Codycod10 ( talk • contribs) 03:41, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

Schilling reportedly is considering running for Congress, which undoubtedly will increase the levels of IP vandalism to this page. I just reverted some POV pushing IP. Enigma msg 16:46, 13 August 2019 (UTC)
As of 7/14/21, under "Scouting Report," reference #41 uses archived data (way back machine) rather than current data < https://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/strikeouts_per_base_on_balls_career.shtml>. Considering the number of pitchers still pitching (2021 season) -- who may or may not finish their careers ahead of Schilling -- it's clear that listing him as "currently fifth" in this article is speculation and misleading. As of the 2021 All-Star break, he's actually #11. Ten years from now, he could be as high as #2 behind Tommy Bond.
Although I made no article edits, I suggest a rephrase indicating that he finished his career in the top five of MLB pitchers in this category. Otherwise, consider changing the reference to use current data or maintain the article daily. Gprobins ( talk) 13:53, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
