Curt Schilling deserves to be in Major League Baseball's Hall of Fame. His baseball resume is an impressive list of rare pitching milestones. He is one of only 19 pitchers with 3,000 strikeouts, almost all of whom are in the Hall of Fame. He completed the most games in the National League in four separate years. He led the league in wins twice and was an All Star six times. In five seasons, he led his league's strikeout-to-walk ratio, proving to be one of the most efficient pitchers in the game.
In 2015, Schilling was suspended from ESPN broadcast work after posting a meme on Twitter comparing Jihadis and Nazis. In 2016, ESPN cut all ties with Schilling after he supported laws that segregate bathrooms by biological sex, rather than by fluid gender identities. And Schilling is very clear that he votes Republican. He has declared his opposition to gay marriage. He even had a podcast with the conservative news website Breitbart.
This and more has led to the cancelling of Curt Schilling. This year was his 10th and final opportunity to be voted into the Hall of Fame by the baseball writers. It passed without his election.
