(AP) — The implosion of former Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling's video game company left the state of Rhode Island with a $100 million mess — and Paul DeBlois with a clock. With the wave of a yel- low bidder's sheet, the tax preparer from Burrillville offered the winning price — $200 — on a company clock during a sell-off Tuesday of what is left of 38 Studios, which was lured to Rhode Island with a massive state loan guar- antee. was one of several at the company's former head- quarters counting down, to the second, the anticipated launch of the video game Schilling dreamed would be a hit. The oversized piece But DeBlois had a dif- ferent use in mind: ''It's going to mark the end of tax season for me,'' he said. The auction, put on by court-appointed receiver Richard Land, comes four months after the compa- ny's spectacular collapse into bankruptcy. Rhode Island, whose quasi-public Economic Development Corp. approved a $75 mil- lion loan guarantee in 2010, is by far 38 Studios' biggest creditor. In total, the state is likely on the hook for some $100 mil- lion related to the deal, once interest in factored in. Hundreds of potential bidders showed up for the auction, which featured everything from high-end computers and graphic animation equipment to model airplanes Schilling is said to have made and kept in his fifth-floor office (empty save for an ergonomic chair, some cherry furniture and an elliptical, which was removed from the sale at the last minute).

Posey leads Giants back to World Series SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — On a team known for stellar pitching, bushy beards and quirky personalities, the unquestioned leader of the San Francisco Giants is their understated catcher, Buster Posey. From his prowess behind the plate, shepherding the staff through its ups and downs, to the bat that won the National League batting title, Posey is the biggest reason the Giants are back in the World Series for the second time in his three big league seasons. ''I'd hate to think where we would be without him,'' man- ager Bruce Bochy said. ''The numbers, they speak for them- selves. But also his leadership on this club. We saw what life was without him last year. ... I don't know a player that's made a bigger impact on a club RED BLUFF than what he has on our club. He's just a tremendous talent. We're lucky to have him.'' Posey has returned from a horrific, season-ending injury in 2011 to the top of the sport this year: starting All-Star catcher, batting champion, likely NL Most Valuable Play- er and World Series trip. It's a remarkable story that Posey even made it back on the field this year, much less per- DAILYNEWS TEHAMACOUNTY ATHLETES OF THE WEEK Corning Cardinals Football Thomas Lowe Senior Thomas Lowe, who has been battling injuries, stepped up when his team needed him most. With a four-touchdown performance Friday at Anderson, Lowe kept his team in the hunt for a play- off spot. Lowe's performance included a dagger intercep- tion, which he ran back for a touchdown. Editor's note: It is standard for the Daily News to highlight a female and male athlete each week when school is in session. And, it should be noted, there wasn't a shortage of qualified athletes this week.

It was his devastating injury that derailed the Giants' repeat hopes a year ago and led many to question whether Posey should ever catch again. In May 2011, Posey broke a bone in his left leg and tore three ankle ligaments when bowled over at the plate by the Florida Marlins' Scott Cousins.
