Curt Schilling May Have to Sell Famed Bloody Sock to Cover Debt of Bankrupt Company

Submitted by webadmin on

Former Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling may be forced to sell the blood-tinged sock he wore during the 2004 World Series to cover loans he guaranteed for his failed video game company, the Washington Post reported yesterday. Schilling's 38 Studios filed for bankruptcy in June, listing the sock as bank collateral in a filing with the Massachusetts secretary of state. Also listed is a baseball cap said to have been worn by Lou Gehrig and a collection of World II memorabilia. Schilling’s 38 Studios is based in Providence, R.I., lured there from Massachusetts with a $75-million loan guarantee. The state is likely responsible for about $100 million related to the deal, including interest.
