Question

Why do people call Curt Schilling the 'ketchup queen" ?

Answer 1

Because there are so many dumb Yankee fans around here.

Answer 2

When he was pitching in that playoff game, his ankle was bleeding. Some doubters say that put ketchup to add effect and it wasn;t blood.

Answer 3

Really? First time I've seen that specific term.

Guessing at the context here, but it is probably used by those people who cannot accept on-the-field defeat gracefully. Such people also tell small children that there is no Tooth Fairy, tell the collector that the check is in the mail, and listen to waaaaay too much AM talk radio.

Answer 4

When he pitched in the playoffs and there was blood in his sock, some people believe that he put ketchup in his sock to add effect.

Answer 5

Because some believe that Curt really put ketchup on his sock instead of his own blood in presumely the game where he was playing hurt.
