Curt Schilling on Big Show: ‘Personal accountability … unbelievably lacking’ on Red Sox 11.04.11 at 4:07 pm ET
By Alex Speier

Curt Schilling

Former Red Sox pitcher and current ESPN analyst Curt Schilling called into The Big Show to discuss the conditioning issues that impacted the 2011 Red Sox and that ultimately contributed to the firing of strength and conditioning coach Dave Page this week. Schilling suggested that the issue had little to do with Page.

“He is as honorable and as hard-working a man as I have ever been around in sports,” Schilling said of Page. “He’s absolutely a casualty of what these players did.

“This was a guy who would lose sleep at night when we lost games,” Schilling, whose working relationship with Page dates to when both were with the Diamondbacks. “Dave Page has absolutely zero responsibility for this.”

Instead, the former All-Star said, the issue was one that reflected directly upon Red Sox players.

“You can’t instill pride and integrity in people. It’s something you’re born with. You have to have it,” said Schilling. “The thing that sickens me is we’re talking about grown men. They have a responsibility and an accountability first of all to their families, to the team, to the organization and to the fans. It clearly didn’t motivate these guys when they were going through the worst collapse in the history of the game last year to change anything. … There’s a personal accountability piece that is unbelievably lacking.”

Schilling suggested that it is critical for the Sox to bring in another player who will force his teammates to remain accountable. He cited the influence of Orlando Cabrera, who was able to get through to teammate Manny Ramirez in 2004 after the Sox acquired Cabrera at the trade deadline.

Asked if the Sox could address the conditioning issues without getting rid of the players who were responsible for them, Schilling said, “Only if you bring in a game-changing presence in that clubhouse. It’s a player.

“It’s the Oralndo Cabrera guy who walks in and says, ‘Manny, you’re not taking yourself out of the lineup. I don’t care. You’re playing.’ Physically, you’ll get into a physical confrontation if another player is not giving everything that they can give,” he added. “It’s the player that makes other players uncomfortable not doing their parts. It’s got to be the verbal guy who says, ‘Are you not doing drills with the pitchers? You hurt? Well then, OK, get better and do them.’ That guy who makes other players uncomfortable if they’re not working off the field. That guy does not exist in that clubhouse.”

Schilling said that members of the Sox are virtually certain to arrive in spring training in “the best shape in the world.” However, he also suggested that without something to change the clubhouse culture, the Sox run the risk of a repeat of the same conditioning issues that afflicted them down the stretch.

“If the team falls out of contention or players aren’t having great seasons, they’ll quit,” said Schilling. “They will quit. There’s nothing the strength coach can do about it.”

    The Steelers lose to Brady all the time.  Brad is 6-3 all time against your team.  Basically, the Patriots do to your Steelers what Ben Roethlisberger does to college girls.  Plus you guys lost to the Broncos this year.  Karma is a bitcch!  The Steelers haven’t won a Super Bowl since Rapelisberger paid off those girls he raped.

  • Anonymous

    The Steelers do it.  Every team does it.  The Patriots were just caught doing it because a disgruntled former employee ratted them out.  Wake up, moron.  You don’t win constantly just because you know 2 signals the other team might use… the “Spygate” excuse is pathetic.  Other teams lose to the Patriots because they’re not as good.  

  • Anonymous

    Roethlisberger and the Steelers got what they deserved by losing to the Broncos because the Steelers’ quarterback is a rapist!

    Nope, he wasn’t.  You’re completely making that up or you’re just still thinking of Ben Roethlisberger, idiot.

    Terry Bradshaw is the Eli Manning of his day.  He had a great team around him, but was an average quarterback which is why Terry Bradshaw is never discussed as one of the greatest of all time.  He cracks the top 20, but only because of his 4 Super Bowls.  Skill-wise, he can’t touch Brady, Montana, Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers or Drew Brees.  Who cares how Brady or Manning would fit into football in the 60s 70s or 80s?  That’s as irrelevant as your incoherent, idiotic post.

  • Anonymous

    You know… the Steelers won 4 of those 6 in the 70s… how do you think Ben Roethlisberger sleeps at night, thinking about all the girls he’s raped?

    Why would he throw it to Welkers inside shoulder when the Safety was located AT his inside shoulder.  Stop making excuses for Brady!!!

  • King_messier

    Using Harrison’s logic, I guess Pittsburgh is a cheating team too – since they lost in their last SB…

  • King_messier

    Let me know the Steelers have never stolen signals or tried to and I will agree with the “tainted” comment.  You can’t…..end of story.

  • Test

     Real Class the guy has an illness and you make fun of it another classless patriot fan have fun with Brady and Camera Crew

  • Test

     Hey Moron they had 11 starters out including there all pro running back what happened when the pats played the steelers this year you got your A** kicked if the steelers were healthy they would have won their seventh now shutup no one cares about your team

  • Test

    So Terry Bradshaw was an average quarterback who was a super bowl MVP and won 4 superbowls in six years I guess if Terry Bradshaw is average then Brady who did not achieve four superbowls in six year must suck according to your logic

  • Test

     Also moron Drew Brees never one a super bowl wake up you have no understanding of football history your probably think Tom Brady who played an era where defenses cannot even touch a quarterback is better than a Johnny Unitas please all of you homers go away you all suck

  • Best of 7 is the best way

    And to fully blame welker and not brady is foolish.   Brady could have zipped it in the numbers and he prolly is in the endzone(brady folded again), and it was catchable enough for welker to catch the most important pass of his career(hes a goat)   They both are goats and thats how they will be remembered UNLESS they win a super bowl together.

  • Spencer

    Big talk from a guy that hits players illegally. I would like to see him on the other side of the ball and have Ronnie Lott tee off on him back in the day. Any team can pick up signals from any team at any time, so what is the big deal? What about teams that have had guys juicing? They should get stripped of their victories also. The 2007 Patriots are the best team that I have have probably ever seen ( besides the 1998 Vikings) but they were still the best team that year.

  • Anonymous

    Yes, he was an average quarterback who benefitted from arguably the greatest defensive line of all time, which backed up his lackluster performances.  Look at his stats, idiot.  He threw 212 TDs to 210 INTs.  His average QBR over the 4 seasons he won Super Bowls was 76.2 and the highest he ever achieved was 88.  That’s pretty pedestrian.  Learn something about the NFL, then come back and talk.  Until then, keep supporting your rapist QB and have your team not make it to the Playoffs next year because their receivers are pathetic and their defense is old and cracking and they lose to Tebow!

  • PittsburghNewYorker

    It comes down to this, teams like the Steelers, Packers, and Giants will always be respected because they have great ownership and a long successful history with great fans. The Patriots whine and cheat and their fans are fake. I would be surprised if most Pats “fan” can name 3 players from before the Brady-Belichick era. However, I do disagree with James Harrison’s tweet because it just made him look stupid again. He needs to learn how to shut up.

  • Tim

    I am a Celtics Fan……..and can you moron Patriot fans please stay away? We dont need your bandwagon, short attention span over here! Oh and I am sure all of you are lifetime bruins fans as well…………..I have lived in the boston area all my life and I remember when all of you were either 49er, cowboy, or packer fans (yes, previous Superbowl winners). Maybe 25% of you go back to the red and whites, if you are older than 20 and a Pats fan chances are you started cheering with Bill Parcels…just be honest…haha….its only football!

    Again, TWO of the Steelers SIX championships have been won since your effeminate QB got is last ring.  Even has to to get his b****y wife to do his fighting for him…  What a p****y

  • Ed

    yea when the NFL was at the talent level that the cfl is today.  49ers best nfl franchise of all time and btw best qb..JM

  • Ed

    cheating/ethics?  lol this coming from james harrison; one of the biggest dirt bags on and off the field?!  smh

  • Gray

     At least you admit Big ben is Second String at best.

  • Gray

     I can name you a Roster you E-Warrior you.

  • Gray

     Ah and just so I don’t have to bother naming players Later.. the “other” (and Crappier by 100000%) Tom .. [Hodson] , Wilson , Grogan , Eison , Fryar , Dykes , Williams , Perryman , Cook , Marion , Hurst , Lippett , Armstrong , Brown etc etc , And by the way no one respects the steelers but steeler fans figured you would know that by now.

  • lambert

    I’d take him over p***y Brady any day.  Not afraid to actually act like a football player and take a hit.  Has a better record in the Super Bowl, too.  Ben with a chronic high ankle sparian is tougher that ittle Tommy at 100%

  • Gray

     And yet Ben with an injury to his foot can’t even beat the lowly Bronco’s Brady with a foot Injury nearly complete a perfect season and at least makes the superbowl.. Slam brady all you want – He goes down as a top 3 all time QB , Big Ben is forgotten in 20 years. Thats how it works SFB.

  • lambert

    49ers never had to face the Raiders, Dolphins, Colts, Browns Oilers, and even the Bengals of the 70s.  In the NFC West, who exactly did they have to beat?

  • lambert

    I think you meant to say toughest.  The Patsies have no one who could take a hit from this real football player, least of whom Tommy “don’t muss my hair” Brady.

  • lambert

    Well……run out od crayons?

  • lambert

    Can you imagine little Tommy having to take a REAL hit from Jack Lambert?  Belli would have to have a stash of diapers so that the pathetic little weasel could keep his a** clean.

  • Gray

     You need to learn how to actually insult .. Without say attempting to curse or use profane language AND you might want to remember how to spell of – it makes you seem like your brain dead.. Or a steeler fan. As for Brady being ‘Not Tough’ taking a shot to your spine from Ray Lewis at full speed , getting bent backwards and walking off the field spiking the ball.. That is Tough. Sorry you are such a bitter person.  Later

  • lambert

    Ahhh, I believe it is the Patriots no one respects.  Last night was only one example of their feckless attempt to establish themselves as a “dynasty”  Grogan?  Eason?  Dykes?  Perryman?  Lippett? Armstrong?  etc?  You HAVE to be kidding.  None of them would have even made a spot on the great Steelers teams.  How many players do the Patsies have in the HOF, anyway?  There ought to be a seperate wing for the steelers.  I think the prime reason for moving from Three Rivers Stadium to Heinz field was that they ran out of room for all those Lombardies.  During the move, I think they lost a couple of trophies.  No one noticed…

  • lambert

    Yeah, I remember his nearly perfect season.  I believe that was just before the one in which he had to take an entire season of the heal one of his injuries.

  • lambert

    Poor little guy

  • lambert

    I’m bitter?  I would think only being 3 of 7 in the Superbowl. would give you more reason.  I live in Boston, and it’s really funny how, when the Patriots are doing well (by beating no one of consequence) the fans always refer to “our” victories.  When they s**t the bed, the fans talk about “their” losses.

  • lambert

    by the way, I think it “you’re”, not your.  Yeah, “your” a real grammatical genius.

  • Gray

     and I think it is actually.. It’s or “It is” Burned by your own flame- Typical steeler fan, They attempt to prove they aren’t stupid by being stupid.

     root for a rapist, you must be proud. Glad it wasn’t your daughter

  • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_LGMZMQ5VVG2F7E4X3OUBPRFFZM Jeff S

     Typical idiotic generalization from someone who should be crying in his terrible towel. The Steel curtain looked as good as ever against the Broncos. Ben’s too focused on completing passes at under-aged girls

  • FactsHurt

    Basketball wouldn’t apply in your comparison.

  • FactsHurt

    Do yourself a favor and do some research and know the facts…not the hearsay. You sound like an idiot.

  • Rotoppa

    Haha! Never try and convince a Steeler fan that he is wrong lol!

    I have to say though, no one gives a damn that the Steelers had four Super Bowl championships in the 1960s, people only care about whats happening with today’s players (aside from Steeler fans I guess).  Yes, the Patriots lost to the Steelers this year (in what?? week five??) but whose to say that the Patriots wouldn’t have won a rematch? (one of you even said that the Steelers played Denver with second string players, you think the Steelers would have beat Brady with second string players?).

    And as for the spy-gate talk going around (again) I am resigned to the fact that some people will never let it go, and will continue to talk about it fifty years from now.  I will say this however: losers make excuses for losing, winners learn from it.

  • Rotoppa

    Hey, I hate to double post, but I found a really good quote that kind of applies to the New England Patriots.

    “Winning to often is as disastrous as losing too often. Both get the same results, the falling off of the public’s enthusiasm.” -Knute Rockne

    I think that this quote describes New England pretty well lol!

  • ryan mathieson

    the spy kids aint ntn we cant win it every yr lets go burgh

  • axel 30

    let spy gate go

  • axel 30

    let spy gate go

  • mr csyl

    rather have brady than a slimeball rapist for a QB

  • toolfool55

    Both players are dirty and don’t deserve to get any publicity. they are classless with no idea how to be a role models or good sport. They don’t realize how gifted they are and lucky to make a living based on physical skills God gave them but left out brain power.

    Big difference between a cheap shot & recording other teams practices 2  know what plays are gonna happen or what defense their in by the signals they are using  B4 the play even starts! Its like comparing a kid who shot spit wads in class to Charles Manson!
