ESPN Pulls Curt Schilling From Little League Broadcast For Tweeting A Nazi Meme
The former MLB pitcher and ESPN analyst tweeted a photo that compared Islamic extremists to Nazis.

Schilling, who was hired by ESPN in 2010, tweeted and posted to Facebook this photo:
In November 2014, Schilling was involved in another Twitter-related controversy when he argued with fellow ESPN colleague Keith Law about creationism versus evolution. Law, on the side of evolution, was briefly suspended from using Twitter for calling out his colleague on a public forum.
Schilling is best-known for his performance during the 2004 ALCS, during which his injured ankle bled through his sock while he was on the mound. At the end of and after his career as a pitcher, Schilling ran a video game company that borrowed and ultimately lost $75 million from the state of Rhode Island.
Schilling announced early last year that he had been diagnosed with throat cancer, citing smokeless tobacco, which is commonly used by MLB players, as the cause. In August 2014, he announced his cancer was in remission.
Despite being pulled from the Little League assignment, Schilling is expected to make his regular appearance on this week's Sunday Night Baseball broadcast.
A Runner Lost Her Bronze Medal After Celebrating Early And It's Awkward AF
Yikes.
10,000 meter runner Molly Huddle got a little too excited about winning the bronze medal at the 2015 Beijing World championships, and ended up losing her place right before the finish line.
There goes first, second, and Molly Hud—uh oh....
As Huddle threw up her arms in excitement, Emily Infeld leaned into the finish line and beat her. Huddle immediately fell into shock, and told Universal Sports, “Emily was right there the whole time with just more momentum. She got that bronze. It’s going to take a long time to get over."
And to make matters more disappointing, Huddle would have been the first non-African born runner to place in the women’s 10,000 meter race since 2007.
Infeld told Universal Sports she actually felt a little guilty "because I feel like Molly let up a little. I don’t think she realized how close I was. I was just trying to run through the line. I’m really thrilled.”
I guess your track coach was right... It's not ever until you cross that finish line

IndyCar Series veteran Justin Wilson died Monday after suffering a traumatic head injury suffered in Sunday's ABC Supply 500 at Pocono Raceway, his family announced.
In what was described as a freak accident, the 37-year-old was struck in the head, while wearing a helmet, by a piece of debris that was on the track after race leader Sage Karam's car crashed.
Wilson is the second IndyCar driver to die from an accident on the track in four years. Indy driver Dan Wheldon was killed in a fiery crash in 2011 at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.
Wilson was surrounded by his family at Lehigh Valley Health Network Cedar Crest Hospital in Allentown, Pennsylvania, when he died on Monday, the Indy Star reported.

Karam's car crashed while he was leading the 200-lap race. As pieces of debris were bouncing on the track, Wilson, who was wearing a helmet, was struck in the head. He was apparently knocked unconscious and his car veered out of control, eventually smashing into the inside wall. Karam suffered a foot injury.
"This is a monumentally sad day for INDYCAR and the motorsports community as a whole," IndyCar CEO Mark Miles said in a statement. "Justin's elite ability to drive a race car was matched by his unwavering kindness, character and humility — which is what made him one of the most respected members of the paddock. As we know, the racing industry is one big family, and our efforts moving forward will be focused on rallying around Justin's family to ensure they get the support they need during this unbelievably difficult time."
Wilson was born in Sheffield, England, and had lived in Longmont, Colorado. Since 2004, he had been competing in the American open-wheel race, and in six races this season for Andretti Autosport. Wilson earned seven career Indy car victories.
