NEW YORK – Curt Schilling’s suspension from helping ESPN broadcast the Little League World Series was extended Thursday to include the big leagues.

“He will not appear on ESPN through the remainder of the regular season and our Wild Card playoff game,” ESPN said in a statement.

Schilling was initially sidelined on Aug. 25 for re-posting a meme on Twitter that reads: “It’s said only 5-10 percent of Muslims are extremists. In 1940, only 7percent of Germans were Nazis. How’d that go?” on a red-tinted photo of Adolf Hitler. The post also appeared on his Facebook page.

ESPN said the initial suspension was “pending further review.”

Curt Schilling is a nasty racist tea bagger. I won't miss him one bit!

1. I used to work near Curt's ill-fated video game company

Saw him around town a few times and said "hi", held a door open for him a couple of times, etc. He never acknowledged my presence, at all. Something seems a little off with him.

2. Maybe he can find a judge who can overthrow the decision.

7. He could try to get the replay guys in New York to look at it.

8. Garbage

He's a garbage human being. Zero redeeming qualities. He screwed a lot of people with the video game thing, a lot of his teammates never liked him, he's a card carrying biggot, and he's a total jerk on a human level.

He rode that bloody sock glory as long as he could before his true colors emerged.
