Curt Schilling rips dudes on Twitter for hitting on his daughter
Former MLB pitcher Curt Schilling went all proud dad on Twitter Wednesday, announcing that his daughter Gabby has accepted a scholarship offer to Salve Regina to play softball.
Congrats to Gabby Schilling who will pitch for the Salve Regina Seahawks next year!!

Who can blame him? Parents have every right to gush when their kids get into college, but Schilling was quickly reminded that social media can often be a cruel forum during the happiest of times.
When a bunch of Twitter trolls basically started hitting on Schilling’s daughter, he couldn’t resist the urge to fire back.

@Stan_Dern’s tweets are protected, but Barstool Sports noted that he was also telling Schilling he would “look out for” his daughter.
While we can’t blame Curt for threatening perverts, he should know better than to fuel the fire. Ignoring trolls is always the best way to go, unless you’re going to pull a Steve Nash. We always encourage that.
