Well, probably not. But that is the impression one would get from Schilling, who continues to run his mouth about matters that have nothing to do with baseball.

On his radio interview today, the injured Red Sox pitcher blasted New York fans for their joy over Brady's impending knee surgery.

"The euphoria in New York is palpable," Schilling said. "The Yankees suck this year and they are bitter and mad and making excuses over that. Now they got Tom going down so New York's excited. It's unfortunate, but when you crawl to the top of the pile you will have people trying to knock you down."

Schilling apparently forgot there are two baseball teams in New York — and the Mets are in first place. And another New York team, the Giants, beat Brady and the Patriots in last year's Super Bowl.

But why let the facts get in the way of a perfectly good rant?
