Curt Schilling’s revenge on trolls who threatened daughter [View all]

Former Red Sox ace Curt Schilling turned the Internet loose on his Twitter antagonists after he announced his daughter Gabby would be pitching for Salve Regina’s college softball team.

Schilling’s fond paternal congratulations were met with “tweets with the word rape, bloody underwear and pretty much every other vulgar and defiling word you could likely fathom,” the ESPN analyst wrote on his blog.

Schilling outed those responsible for the most heinous social media abuses:
‘“The Sports Guru”? Ya he’s a DJ named Adam Nagel (DJ is a bit strong since he’s on the air for 1 hour a week) on Brookdale Student Radio at Brookdale Community College. How do you think that place feels about this stud representing their school? You don’t think this isn’t going to be a nice compilation that will show up every single time this idiot is googled the rest of his life? What happens when a potential woman he’s after googles and reads this?”’

And now Nagel is paying the price. Brookdale CC announced he was “summarily suspended and will be scheduled for a conduct hearing where further disciplinary action will be taken. The Brookdale Police are actively investigating this matter. Brookdale takes this behavior very seriously and does not tolerate any form of harassment.”
