I don't think Schill is coming back, I heard he already sold his house in Boston, but take that fwiw.

so many ppl seem to think this and it makes no sense to me

1) schilling has been pretty adamant that his first choice is to sign with the sox for 1/12 or 1/13 or whatever it was.
2) the sox are a 100% lock to accept that offer if its there

the negotiation seems to have basically gone like this:

april 2007:
schilling: wanna resign me?
theo: maybe what do u want
schilling: 1/13
theo: hmm sounds fair lets t..
schilling: but i mean i'll also accept 1/13 at the end of the season if u wanna wait until then
theo: oh we dont rengotiate contracts mid-season lets awit until november

now schillings all like well they haven't resigned me yet maybe they dont want me i better post psuedo farewell messages on the internet
