Schilling asks R.I. for aid after firm misses payment on state-backed loan

[LondonReign2]

But Curt, I thought government was evil and everyone should pull themselves up by their bootstraps? How is it you are now begging for government help after taking a loan of $75M in tax-payer money?

Right-wing hypocrite much?

PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- Former Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling is asking Rhode Island for additional help to save his video game company, prompting state leaders to consider whether the firm is viable enough to justify the investment.

Schilling briefed Gov. Lincoln Chafee and the state's Economic Development Corp. board Wednesday in a closed-door session.

Following the meeting, Chafee would not say what Schilling is seeking from the state. The governor said the question before state economic development officials was, "How do we avoid throwing good money after bad?"

Schilling declined to answer questions, saying only: "My priority right now is to get back to my team."

Concerns about 38 Studios' financial health arose when it failed to make a scheduled $1.1 million payment to the Economic Development Corp. on May 1.

3. Maybe Bain Capital could help him out.

It sounds like the kind of job creating company they could really take a bite out of.

I know where a van is parked down by the river.
