If things go poorly for Schilling he may get sent down to the minors where he share a locker with Lenny Dykstra and they can sit around all day talking how the invisible hand wasn’t calling for a fastball.

Fatster rounds up the news stories you might have missed from June 11, 2012, including snippets and links about Greek blackouts, food shortages, Pakistan supply rutes, Vatican scandals, Syria, Libya, Flame super virus, JP Morgan’s whale, Jeb Bush, market failures, Scott Walker, Curt Schilling, John Bryson and more.

You probably read (here or elsewhere) about yesterday’s mini-firestorm in the blogosphere: the report that a wealthy right-winger, Joe Ricketts, was considering a $10 million super-PAC ad campaign reviving old charges about President Obama’s supposed connections to Rev. Jeremiah Wright.

You may have missed the punch line, though. The denial issued by Ricketts described him as “a fiscal conservative,” and his super-PAC is (rather ludicrously) named the “Ending Spending Action Fund.”
