WEBVTT - 11-3-25 Monday Night Sterling 0:00:00.680 --> 0:00:03.720 Here we are. It's a fine Monday night, Sterling stepping 0:00:03.800 --> 0:00:07.960 in after a UC basketball bear Cat win ninety four 0:00:08.200 --> 0:00:13.160 sixty three over the Catamounts of Western Carolina. West Miller's 0:00:13.160 --> 0:00:15.480 a bear Casts with a win to start the regular season. 0:00:15.520 --> 0:00:18.200 Fifth third arena in here on seven hundred wl W 0:00:19.360 --> 0:00:21.439 Gary Jeff Walker, who's normally here at this time, going 0:00:21.520 --> 0:00:24.040 to join us later. He got the night off, but 0:00:24.079 --> 0:00:26.479 he's I want to talk about raised relationship issues if 0:00:26.520 --> 0:00:28.600 you've got time. So it's like, sure, we'll do that 0:00:28.640 --> 0:00:31.120 after eleven o'clock. We can fit you in. Of course. 0:00:31.840 --> 0:00:35.240 Also a good news for NKU fans. The Norse nearly 0:00:35.280 --> 0:00:37.080 doubled up. This is insane. I think it's the most 0:00:37.120 --> 0:00:40.240 they've ever scored in a game of hoops. One twenty 0:00:40.320 --> 0:00:44.120 six sixty nine winners over UC Claremont, and that was 0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:47.200 the truest arena. So the Cougars of Claremont U see 0:00:47.840 --> 0:00:50.760 going back there and not feeling good about their trip 0:00:50.800 --> 0:00:55.160 to Northern Kentucky. The marist Red Foxes were at Sintas 0:00:55.200 --> 0:00:59.840 taking on the Musketeers, Xavier handling them sixty six sixty 0:00:59.840 --> 0:01:03.120 two at Sintas. That's a win for the Bearcats, a 0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:05.920 win for the Musketeers, a win for the Norse and 0:01:06.160 --> 0:01:11.600 the Dayton Flyers all over Canisius's Golden Griffins you deer 0:01:11.680 --> 0:01:14.399 in earlier eighty eight forty eight, So those are all good, 0:01:14.720 --> 0:01:18.840 and then of course yesterday there was the devastating, heartbreaking 0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:22.399 I'm trying not to be as emotionally engaged as it's 0:01:22.480 --> 0:01:26.560 just debilitating Otherwise, the Bengals with a tough loss, and 0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:30.160 a really tough loss for a lot of us who 0:01:30.200 --> 0:01:34.120 grew up listening to seven hundred WLW who were Bengals fans. 0:01:35.319 --> 0:01:39.240 Bob Trumpy some would call him the godfather of sports 0:01:39.280 --> 0:01:43.319 talk radio. Announcement that he passed away over the weekend 0:01:44.520 --> 0:01:48.720 and apparently surrounded by family. We will talk to Lance 0:01:48.800 --> 0:01:54.200 McCallister just after ten o'clock about Bob, as well as 0:01:54.720 --> 0:01:59.400 George Vogel, former sports director at Channel five WLWT, going 0:01:59.440 --> 0:02:02.480 to join us about ten thirty five to talk about 0:02:02.520 --> 0:02:07.400 Bob Trumpy, huge shoes and voice behind the microphone, just 0:02:07.720 --> 0:02:11.680 a good guy. I'll let these guys tell the story 0:02:11.720 --> 0:02:15.240 because they knew him, they worked around him, aside from 0:02:15.280 --> 0:02:18.720 me just growing up listening and then once I came 0:02:18.760 --> 0:02:20.799 into this building, or at least the building in Mount 0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:24.040 Adams when we were there years ago. He had already 0:02:24.080 --> 0:02:26.880 moved on to be doing NFL stuff full time on 0:02:27.240 --> 0:02:30.120 TV and radio, but occasionally would pop in the building. 0:02:30.800 --> 0:02:33.440 And you know, it's one of these things that you 0:02:33.480 --> 0:02:35.240 grew up listening to this radio station, you end up 0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:37.400 working in the building or working on the air here 0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:39.600 at the Big One, and I was doing FM stuff. 0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:41.800 I'm not even sure. I had probably started to do 0:02:41.919 --> 0:02:45.120 some stuff here fill ins and otherwise on seven hundred 0:02:45.200 --> 0:02:48.800 WLW at that point, So Trumpy would be in the 0:02:48.840 --> 0:02:51.680 building on occasion, the way so many other people you see, 0:02:51.680 --> 0:02:54.840 like Johnny Bench, you know, you see anybody and everybody. 0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:58.200 Pete Rose randomly, you know, James Brown randomly. It's just 0:02:58.240 --> 0:03:02.000 sort of a crazy thing, especially growing up as a fan. 0:03:02.560 --> 0:03:05.440 Right In a couple of handful of times that we 0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:07.840 actually conversed, he was always very polite. I don't think 0:03:07.880 --> 0:03:10.880 he really knew who I was, because I was literally 0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:12.919 like a fly on the wall and the long haired 0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:16.920 FM music guy from upstairs at the time who would 0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:18.880 sort of like be bouncing around the building and sort 0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:21.040 of bumped into him and others. But he was always 0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:25.400 very polite, very friendly, and obviously fantastic to listen to. 0:03:25.440 --> 0:03:27.280 And I know Lance will have a lot to say 0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:30.400 about him, as will George Vogel. And my heart goes 0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:35.120 out to his Family's had just a brilliant life, a 0:03:35.200 --> 0:03:38.800 career and seemed to just be really everything you'd want 0:03:38.840 --> 0:03:41.000 to be as an individual and a family man and 0:03:41.040 --> 0:03:43.000 so forth. A little bit that I actually knew of him, 0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:45.760 So that'll be good coming up in just a little 0:03:45.760 --> 0:03:51.160 bit tomorrow's election day. Also, if you hadn't heard, they're 0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:54.880 expecting a whopping twenty five. In fact, maybe if they 0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:59.160 reached thirty percent of those eligible voters to actually go 0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:01.760 to the polling place is tomorrow, or to have already 0:04:01.800 --> 0:04:04.520 cast their ballot in early voting, if not mailing it 0:04:04.560 --> 0:04:08.760 in thirty percent would be like a massive turnout for 0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:11.480 this sort of in between election, even though it is 0:04:11.600 --> 0:04:14.120 for a lot of council seats in Cincinnati and a 0:04:14.160 --> 0:04:17.400 mayor's race as well, and a lot of stuff sort 0:04:17.440 --> 0:04:19.680 of on the ballot or randomly around the tri state, 0:04:19.720 --> 0:04:22.920 around the country for that matter, too. So we will 0:04:22.960 --> 0:04:25.200 talk on that just a little bit, you know. And 0:04:25.240 --> 0:04:29.719 I'm curious and I don't know, I'm just wondering because 0:04:30.120 --> 0:04:32.680 you talk to people and you listen to talk shows maybe, 0:04:32.839 --> 0:04:36.200 and you know on social media and so much is political, 0:04:36.360 --> 0:04:39.760 so much is all about it, all that, and you 0:04:39.800 --> 0:04:42.960 know how important the elections are, and you know the 0:04:43.040 --> 0:04:45.680 need for a better policing in Cincinnati, for instance, and 0:04:45.760 --> 0:04:48.159 what's gone on with the police chief and her on 0:04:48.200 --> 0:04:51.240 the sideline and then somebody else being brought you know, in, 0:04:51.440 --> 0:04:55.159 or at least bumped up in the organization to sort 0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:59.320 of handle things while the so called independent investigation is 0:04:59.360 --> 0:05:03.120 taking place, and the question of policing and the judiciary 0:05:03.279 --> 0:05:06.680 and how judges are handling things in the plan as 0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:08.880 far as you know, being tougher on crime or otherwise. 0:05:09.560 --> 0:05:11.839 So all of this is sort of you know, bubbling 0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:14.480 up is a part of what one would think would 0:05:14.520 --> 0:05:17.880 be something fairly serious to get people out to vote. 0:05:18.000 --> 0:05:19.520 We're can open up the phones, give you a chance 0:05:19.560 --> 0:05:22.240 to sound off five point three seven four nine, seven thousand, 0:05:22.560 --> 0:05:24.479 eight hundred, the big one, you can talk back the 0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:28.880 iHeartRadio app. I'm just curious because of how important it 0:05:28.960 --> 0:05:34.520 is and statistically and historically speaking along those lines, this 0:05:34.920 --> 0:05:38.000 election one would think would be important. It is certainly 0:05:38.080 --> 0:05:40.599 talked about as important to you know, the talk of 0:05:40.920 --> 0:05:46.280 crime and businesses in downtown Cincinnati and across the region 0:05:46.440 --> 0:05:51.440 just in general, so many things of concern that maybe 0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:53.600 there would be more people coming out of the roadwork 0:05:53.640 --> 0:05:55.960 to have their voices heard. But it seems to me 0:05:56.120 --> 0:06:00.160 that twenty five percent is probably about what they're expect. 0:06:00.240 --> 0:06:01.839 If they were to get an extra five percent to 0:06:01.920 --> 0:06:04.400 thirty percent of those that are eligible to vote to 0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:08.000 actually show up and let their voice be heard, it 0:06:08.040 --> 0:06:10.800 would be shocking to those who count the votes and 0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:14.159 those who study these things. I'm wondering, how engaged and 0:06:14.240 --> 0:06:16.640 concerned are you. I mean, there are some things as 0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:19.880 far as renewals of taxes, there's you know, some judge 0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:23.679 ship situations that all these type of things are out there, 0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:29.120 and my guest, as much as there's been talk about it, 0:06:29.120 --> 0:06:32.920 it is still shocking and somewhat bewildering to me that 0:06:33.040 --> 0:06:39.599 so few people actually get out to vote and fairly 0:06:39.640 --> 0:06:43.480 important situation. So I'm just wondering, are you voting, Have 0:06:43.520 --> 0:06:46.520 you voted? How serious are you about it? How much 0:06:46.560 --> 0:06:50.120 do you care? I think there are some disenfranchised I've 0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:52.640 talked to people of a variety of age groups in 0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:54.800 the last week or so in and about the tri 0:06:55.000 --> 0:06:57.760 State up in the Miami Valley as well, and I 0:06:57.800 --> 0:07:00.680 talk to people, and people seem to be very soured 0:07:00.680 --> 0:07:08.160 and irritated and aggravated and dissatisfied in general with both 0:07:08.200 --> 0:07:11.920 parties and a lot of the individuals that are out 0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:14.360 there looking to try to either get rehired or to 0:07:14.640 --> 0:07:18.400 find themselves into new positions apparently to represent we the people, 0:07:18.760 --> 0:07:20.560 and to do the people's work, to make it safer, 0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:23.560 in a better environment for business, and all the other 0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:26.160 things that you would hope the government actually is going 0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:29.280 to be able to do or should be doing with 0:07:29.320 --> 0:07:32.600 your tax dollars and my tax dollars and Joe Waddell's 0:07:32.600 --> 0:07:36.000 tax dollars, who's producing, et cetera. To sort of go 0:07:36.080 --> 0:07:38.760 along with that, I mean, that's what one would think, 0:07:39.120 --> 0:07:43.040 But it does appear that perhaps as much people talk 0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:45.520 about it, that not a lot of people are. I 0:07:45.520 --> 0:07:49.400 think there's a dissatisfaction, and I think a disgruntled nature 0:07:49.680 --> 0:07:52.080 of a lot of talk and a lot of not 0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:55.120 being done that goes along with it. So we'll see 0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:57.920 exactly how how far it goes and what happens if 0:07:57.920 --> 0:08:02.400 there's a change in Cincinnati, if there's a change elsewhere around. 0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:05.840 We know that there were new lines drawn. As far 0:08:05.920 --> 0:08:10.560 as some call it jerrymandering, some people just call it redistricting. 0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:12.920 We know that it still does not fall in line 0:08:13.000 --> 0:08:15.240 with what the edict was from the Supreme Court, but 0:08:15.280 --> 0:08:19.000 apparently nobody pays attention to that. So going into twenty six, 0:08:19.080 --> 0:08:22.400 that's something that we will all have to live with 0:08:22.760 --> 0:08:25.840 and navigate one way or the other, whether it's fair 0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:29.080 representation or otherwise. We'll see exactly how it goes. This 0:08:29.160 --> 0:08:31.400 has been something that has been talked about for years 0:08:31.440 --> 0:08:34.439 and they've never gone beyond that. So we'll see exactly 0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:38.640 I guess what growth what goes along with that overall. 0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:41.800 So before we take the first break, five one, three, seven, four, nine, 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:44.959 eight hundred, the Big One, talk back the iHeartRadio app. 0:08:45.080 --> 0:08:47.240 I'm just wondering, are you going to vote? Have you voted? 0:08:47.559 --> 0:08:50.960 How concerned are you about it? One way or the other. 0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:55.040 Whether you're in Cincinnati or Dayton or Covington, Newport, doesn't matter, 0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:59.520 Hyde Park, you name it. It's an interesting thing where 0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:02.040 there's so much attention and you read the headlines. I've 0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:04.960 heard more in some fashion about a mayor's race in 0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:07.880 New York than I have about the mayor's race in Cincinnati. 0:09:08.480 --> 0:09:11.000 And to be honest with you, what happens in Cincinnati 0:09:11.120 --> 0:09:12.600 I think is going to affect people in the Tri 0:09:12.760 --> 0:09:15.199 State more than what happens in New York. But that 0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:18.120 obviously is what is a sexy headline and all the 0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:20.400 stuff that goes along with it. So we'll see exactly 0:09:20.440 --> 0:09:25.320 how that plays out overall. I mean, it's a serious thing. 0:09:25.760 --> 0:09:27.600 And for those who don't know, and this is a 0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:30.160 fairly common thing. And I had this conversation with a 0:09:30.200 --> 0:09:33.080 neighbor of mine. They were like, they weren't sure if 0:09:33.080 --> 0:09:34.480 they were going to be able to vote. They didn't 0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:36.200 know if they had what they needed because they were 0:09:36.240 --> 0:09:39.200 afraid of being tighter when it comes to getting a 0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:41.319 chance to show up at the polls and do it. 0:09:41.880 --> 0:09:43.680 You can use your driver's license, You can use the 0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:46.320 State of Ohio ID. You can use an inuum I 0:09:46.400 --> 0:09:49.080 D if you have an interum ID from the Bureau 0:09:49.080 --> 0:09:51.920 of Motor Vehicles in Ohio. Anyway, if you have a passport, 0:09:51.920 --> 0:09:54.800 a passport of work, if you have a passport card 0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:58.400 or a US Military card, National Guard card for the 0:09:58.760 --> 0:10:02.400 for Ohio or a Veteran's Affairs ID card from the 0:10:02.440 --> 0:10:06.240 Department of Veteran Affairs. All photo IDs have to have 0:10:06.280 --> 0:10:09.040 an expiration date that is not expired. In other words, 0:10:09.040 --> 0:10:11.640 it has to be current. You have to have a 0:10:11.679 --> 0:10:15.000 photograph on that ID of the person doing the voting, 0:10:15.040 --> 0:10:17.040 so they know what you and not somebody else trying 0:10:17.040 --> 0:10:20.520 to hoist your voice. And the voter's name has to 0:10:20.559 --> 0:10:25.280 be apparently close as it possibly can be too entirely 0:10:25.320 --> 0:10:29.960 accurate looking at the voter role compared to what is 0:10:30.000 --> 0:10:32.439 on your ID, in other words, what's in the voting book. 0:10:32.760 --> 0:10:34.560 And if you're like me, they look at my signature 0:10:34.559 --> 0:10:37.120 and goes, we don't even believe that you have hands. 0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:40.480 It's almost like just a thumb print basically, So that's 0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:44.680 how they identify me generally speaking. So that's one of 0:10:44.920 --> 0:10:47.359 my neighbor was very concerned, like what about my cableville, 0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:49.679 I don't think you can use the cable bill and 0:10:50.080 --> 0:10:52.679 ongoing and the conversation and the argument that has been 0:10:52.760 --> 0:10:55.240 had over and over again is you know, oh, we 0:10:55.280 --> 0:10:58.840 need a better security around our polls and knowing that 0:10:58.880 --> 0:11:01.440 we know who's voting. Well, that's how that works, and 0:11:01.480 --> 0:11:03.040 I don't think it's too much to ask to have 0:11:03.120 --> 0:11:06.720 somebody have an ID with their picture on it or otherwise. 0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:10.280 And hopefully there's been also a lot of talk, but 0:11:10.520 --> 0:11:12.800 I've really seen nothing more about it. I see all 0:11:12.800 --> 0:11:15.320 this stuff, this sort of pops into social media, pops 0:11:15.360 --> 0:11:19.800 in unsolicited to my email accounts, talking about be careful 0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:22.360 with the polls and danger at the polls. I have never, 0:11:22.480 --> 0:11:25.360 not once ever, other than the people out in front 0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:28.680 that have their little placards that are trying to tell 0:11:28.720 --> 0:11:31.040 me to vote one way or another way, or for 0:11:31.200 --> 0:11:34.680 a candidate within the certain minimal amount of feet distance, 0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:38.360 they're supposed to release you so you can freely walk 0:11:38.400 --> 0:11:41.160 into that elementary school or wherever it is that you're 0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:45.120 going to vote without them being annoying and up on you. 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:48.760 I mean, I don't when I'm in Vegas, and I 0:11:48.840 --> 0:11:51.480 used to live there for a little while, and I 0:11:51.520 --> 0:11:53.200 wouldn't spend a whole lot of time on the strip, 0:11:53.240 --> 0:11:55.440 but you have friends visit, and you'd walk along the strip, 0:11:55.440 --> 0:11:57.640 and you have all those people out in front with 0:11:57.679 --> 0:12:03.840 their little hooker like or a companion. Let's just call 0:12:03.880 --> 0:12:06.640 it escort trading cards, you know, they've flip the card 0:12:06.679 --> 0:12:08.920 at you or whatever. I don't need that type of 0:12:08.920 --> 0:12:10.800 interaction when I'm trying to walk to go get a 0:12:10.840 --> 0:12:13.240 drink or buy of food. I certainly don't need anybody 0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:15.920 up in my grill and in my face trying to 0:12:15.960 --> 0:12:19.839 intimidate or convince me that I need to vote one 0:12:19.840 --> 0:12:22.440 way or the other as I'm walking into a polling place. 0:12:23.160 --> 0:12:27.440 I've never understood that. But I do have one request 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:32.480 beyond the ideas that you know, vote, let your voice 0:12:32.480 --> 0:12:35.400 be heard. However you're going to vote, you should do it. 0:12:36.360 --> 0:12:40.040 But I have an idea that's the thing. I mean, 0:12:40.320 --> 0:12:42.680 if you don't know what you're doing by the time 0:12:42.720 --> 0:12:45.360 you get there, I think there's a problem. And whether 0:12:45.400 --> 0:12:48.000 you go to the Hamilton County Board of Elections website, 0:12:48.080 --> 0:12:51.880 or Montgomery County or Boone County, or you know, whatever 0:12:51.920 --> 0:12:55.240 it is, wherever you happen to be, you can usually 0:12:55.240 --> 0:12:58.160 get a sample ballot so you can see exactly what's 0:12:58.240 --> 0:13:01.280 on the ballots, so you know exactly what you're voting for. 0:13:01.360 --> 0:13:05.040 You could fill it out beforehand on paper in front 0:13:05.040 --> 0:13:06.520 of you so you can go in and make it 0:13:06.559 --> 0:13:10.480 an EASYPAS process. And my guess is with twenty five 0:13:10.520 --> 0:13:14.120 to thirty percent maximum hitting the polls in total tomorrow, 0:13:14.160 --> 0:13:18.319 not voting tomorrow, but voting for the entire election. Probably 0:13:18.320 --> 0:13:19.920 not going to be a whole lot of big, serious 0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:22.559 problems with lines or anything else along that, So we'll 0:13:22.559 --> 0:13:25.040 see exactly how it plays out. Your chance to get 0:13:25.080 --> 0:13:27.520 interactive straight away. Lancedo mccalis are going to join us 0:13:27.520 --> 0:13:29.880 after ten o'clock. We'll talk the legendary Bob Trumpy, who 0:13:29.880 --> 0:13:32.880 we lost over the weekend, plus George Vocal Vocal, a 0:13:32.880 --> 0:13:36.719 former a sports director Channel five WLWT, and my man 0:13:36.720 --> 0:13:40.280 Gary Jeff Walker wants to talk relationships, so we'll see 0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:42.600 what type of dysfunction he wants to share with all 0:13:42.679 --> 0:13:45.760 of us. Coming up, It's a Monday night, Sterling on 0:13:45.800 --> 0:13:50.000 seven hundred WLW. What's going on, Sterling hanging out? A 0:13:50.040 --> 0:13:54.640 good night for basketball Bearcats as well as Musketeers and 0:13:54.679 --> 0:13:58.800 the Dayton Flyers and the Nkau norse A Bearcats ninety 0:13:58.880 --> 0:14:02.200 four sixty three of Western Carolina. The Catamounts going home 0:14:02.240 --> 0:14:04.880 after a bad night for them at fifth Third Arena. 0:14:04.920 --> 0:14:07.280 You heard Dan Hort Mowager with the call ninety four 0:14:07.320 --> 0:14:10.839 to sixty three bear Cats handled business West Miller's guys 0:14:11.080 --> 0:14:14.520 look on to the next one. Maris red Fox's visited 0:14:14.559 --> 0:14:18.720 Centas Center the campus Xavier University Musketeers sixty six sixty 0:14:18.760 --> 0:14:22.200 two winners. There. You see, Claremont took a trip to 0:14:22.320 --> 0:14:26.760 Northern Kentucky Truist Arena and the NKA Norse schooled them. 0:14:27.280 --> 0:14:29.800 It was a whole new level of education for those 0:14:30.160 --> 0:14:34.240 Cougar So you see Claremont one six to sixty nine, 0:14:34.280 --> 0:14:38.160 the Norse all over them, and the Golden Griffins of 0:14:38.240 --> 0:14:42.080 Kenisias made a trip to downtown Dayton ud Arena and 0:14:42.120 --> 0:14:46.520 the Flyers handled them easily eighty eight forty eight. So 0:14:46.600 --> 0:14:49.920 there's some scores in and around the region when it 0:14:49.960 --> 0:14:54.000 comes to some college hoops getting underway, and there'll be 0:14:54.040 --> 0:14:57.720 more of that obviously in the season ahead. So that's 0:14:57.760 --> 0:15:01.840 a pretty exciting tough one yesterday for the Bengals. I 0:15:01.840 --> 0:15:06.960 don't even know defense problems, I guess, I mean, I mean, 0:15:07.000 --> 0:15:09.320 I don't know how much more offense do you need? 0:15:11.520 --> 0:15:15.440 But it was tough, that's all I know. Speaking of Bengals, 0:15:15.840 --> 0:15:18.680 we lost one of the original football Bengals and Bob 0:15:18.720 --> 0:15:21.760 Trumpy over the weekend, eighty years old we'll talk to 0:15:21.840 --> 0:15:27.080 Lance mccowister and George Vogel about Bob Trumpy, about those Bengals, 0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:30.640 about what he has meant to the tri State and 0:15:30.720 --> 0:15:33.960 sports talk across the country and certainly ended up calling 0:15:34.000 --> 0:15:36.360 a bunch of games in the NFL. He was like 0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:39.560 their a team for NBC when they were carrying AFC 0:15:39.720 --> 0:15:44.960 games and so forth as well. So just a big loss, 0:15:45.000 --> 0:15:50.320 just a legend on this radio station, in history, just 0:15:50.680 --> 0:15:56.120 in general as a Bengal, pretty pretty spectacular. Maris not 0:15:56.240 --> 0:16:00.840 to be confused with those Maris players who leave Cincinnati 0:16:01.080 --> 0:16:06.880 after losing to Xavier. But Maris and Fairborne said, how 0:16:06.960 --> 0:16:09.040 dare I, especially the fact that she knows I went 0:16:09.080 --> 0:16:12.920 to Wright State not mentioning the Raiders handling business. They 0:16:13.000 --> 0:16:18.960 beat Franklin Franklin eighty six thirty seven, the Right State 0:16:19.040 --> 0:16:22.240 Raiders at the Nutter Center eighty six thirty seven over 0:16:22.360 --> 0:16:25.520 Franklin's Grizzlies. So the Raiders with their first win under 0:16:25.520 --> 0:16:28.400 their belt for the twenty twenty five twenty sixth season 0:16:29.120 --> 0:16:31.720 as they and they'll spend a little time in northern Kentucky. 0:16:31.720 --> 0:16:34.880 They'll face the Norse there, and of course up seventy 0:16:35.200 --> 0:16:38.960 one and seventy five in the Dayton area later on 0:16:39.040 --> 0:16:41.480 as they do their home and away thing for the 0:16:41.480 --> 0:16:45.120 Horizon League. So right State one, you see when Xavier wins, 0:16:45.280 --> 0:16:48.560 NKU wins, Dayton Flyers win, that's a whole lot of 0:16:48.680 --> 0:16:51.480 w's in the region. So there you go. There's that 0:16:51.800 --> 0:16:54.040 to look forward to as well. And Gary Jeff Walker's 0:16:54.040 --> 0:16:56.480 coming up a bit later. I had something happened to 0:16:56.520 --> 0:16:58.160 me on the way in here. I was running some 0:16:58.320 --> 0:17:03.280 errands in two different occasions, not at a crosswalk. In 0:17:03.320 --> 0:17:06.359 the news as of the last week or so before 0:17:06.400 --> 0:17:08.480 the time change, and then after the time change, I've 0:17:08.480 --> 0:17:10.879 seen this, and the time change, of course, just happened, 0:17:12.520 --> 0:17:14.960 you hear. I don't know. I'm trying to think at 0:17:15.000 --> 0:17:17.760 least six different stories I've come across in the last 0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:19.680 week to ten days of people who have been hit 0:17:19.720 --> 0:17:23.400 by cars. The vast majority apparently have been in crosswalks, 0:17:23.400 --> 0:17:27.240 some have not. And one of the things every year 0:17:27.280 --> 0:17:29.200 that you have to concern yourself with is it gets 0:17:29.280 --> 0:17:32.440 dark earlier. It's often dark in the morning, kids going 0:17:32.480 --> 0:17:35.520 too from school and so forth, and it's a real 0:17:35.560 --> 0:17:37.679 basic thing. When you're driving and you're behind the wheel, 0:17:37.960 --> 0:17:40.560 you keep an eye out for any danger, let alone 0:17:40.640 --> 0:17:44.000 pedestrian and certainly in a crosswalk. And we've seen a 0:17:44.000 --> 0:17:46.080 lot of these stories about hit and runs as well, 0:17:46.119 --> 0:17:50.360 which is bewildering. You know, is there somebody's affected, been 0:17:50.359 --> 0:17:53.359 distracted or indifferent, I guess is what it boils down to. 0:17:54.040 --> 0:17:56.119 But the other thing on the way in two different 0:17:56.119 --> 0:17:59.600 people in areas on the road where on Montgomery Road 0:17:59.720 --> 0:18:03.920 in an other spot it was in between lit roadway areas, 0:18:03.920 --> 0:18:06.159 so it was a little bit darker, and not in 0:18:06.200 --> 0:18:09.639 crosswalks where people in dark clothes were choosing to walk 0:18:10.240 --> 0:18:13.640 across four or five lanes of traffic technically with two 0:18:13.760 --> 0:18:15.399 and two and then a turn lane in the middle 0:18:16.400 --> 0:18:20.879 in front of moving vehicles, which is unsettling to the 0:18:20.960 --> 0:18:24.679 driver of a car unnerving is all hell and dangerous. 0:18:24.720 --> 0:18:26.800 That's how you end up being a statistic or a 0:18:26.840 --> 0:18:29.680 news story. And if I've learned nothing else, it's better 0:18:29.720 --> 0:18:31.960 to talk and make fun of the news than it 0:18:32.040 --> 0:18:35.359 is to be the news. Go to a crosswalk and 0:18:35.400 --> 0:18:37.840 just pay attention to where you're going, you know, between 0:18:37.840 --> 0:18:43.159 distracted in drunken and just you know, affected drivers and 0:18:43.200 --> 0:18:46.320 then people not paying attention distracted while walking and not 0:18:46.480 --> 0:18:49.639 thinking about how vulnerable they are from the vehicles that 0:18:49.680 --> 0:18:52.200 are at least a ton to two tons sometimes more 0:18:52.840 --> 0:18:56.320 moving at thirty forty fifty sixty miles an hour. You 0:18:56.400 --> 0:18:58.600 might go to a crosswalk, you might want to look 0:18:58.640 --> 0:19:04.080 both ways. I'm just saying it's ridiculous, and we're all 0:19:04.080 --> 0:19:06.920 in this together. So you don't want to hit anybody, 0:19:06.920 --> 0:19:08.400 I would hope, and you don't want to be hit. 0:19:08.880 --> 0:19:12.680 Act accordingly your ten o'clock report straight away. More Sterling 0:19:12.760 --> 0:19:15.639 coming back, Gary Jeff Walker joins me after eleven, George 0:19:15.720 --> 0:19:18.840 Vogel at ten thirty five, and our man Lance McCallister, 0:19:19.119 --> 0:19:22.679 host of Sports Talk, talks about effectively the original, the 0:19:22.760 --> 0:19:26.360 godfather of sports talk and a former Bengal in his passing, 0:19:26.400 --> 0:19:31.520 Bob Trumpy coming up with Sterling seven hundred WLW Cincinnati. Hey, 0:19:31.520 --> 0:19:33.640 how you doing. It's a Monday night. Sterling A good 0:19:33.640 --> 0:19:36.200 one in if you're of basketball. Bear Can Fan ninety 0:19:36.200 --> 0:19:39.080 eighty four sixty three over Western Carolina to start off 0:19:39.119 --> 0:19:42.000 at twenty twenty five, twenty six campaign bear Cats over 0:19:42.040 --> 0:19:45.760 to Canamounts, Xavier beat the Red Foxes of Maris at 0:19:45.800 --> 0:19:49.639 Sentas Nku Norse all over U C Claremont one twenty 0:19:49.640 --> 0:19:52.480 six sixty nine and Canisius as Golden Griffins went into 0:19:52.560 --> 0:19:55.600 ud Arena downtown Dayton and the flyer sent them home 0:19:56.000 --> 0:19:59.800 not so happy. The Griffins lose eighty eight forty eight 0:20:00.160 --> 0:20:02.639 and to the right state Raiders handled business also at 0:20:02.640 --> 0:20:06.159 the Nutter Center took care of business over Franklin's Grizzlies 0:20:06.240 --> 0:20:09.320 eighty six thirty seven. A whole lot of winning. A 0:20:09.359 --> 0:20:12.520 guy who knows from winning, and our sports talk host 0:20:12.520 --> 0:20:16.560 here at seven hundred wl W, Lance McAllister, kind enough 0:20:16.560 --> 0:20:19.080 to give us some time. The man who led the 0:20:19.119 --> 0:20:23.920 way for Lance and to Andy Furman and Paul Doherty, 0:20:23.920 --> 0:20:25.639 I think was here for about eight and a half minutes. 0:20:25.680 --> 0:20:28.080 There have been others who have done it, but Lance 0:20:28.359 --> 0:20:30.800 is the man right now, one of those on the 0:20:30.840 --> 0:20:35.639 mount Rushmore broadcasters, and we lost. I won't even use 0:20:35.680 --> 0:20:38.600 the term loosely say friend. In passing, I got to 0:20:38.600 --> 0:20:41.679 say hello and meet Bob Trumpy, but grew up listening 0:20:41.680 --> 0:20:44.239 to the guy and certainly the legend of him as 0:20:44.280 --> 0:20:47.480 being an original Bengal. Lance McAllister, I appreciate you making 0:20:47.520 --> 0:20:50.360 time on a busy Monday at seven hundred WLW how 0:20:50.400 --> 0:20:55.320 are you and what was your relationship like with Bob Trumpy, 0:20:55.359 --> 0:21:00.000 because I'm sure that you have crossed paths over the years. 0:20:59.320 --> 0:21:04.600 Yeah, Sterling, good to join you. It traces back to you. 0:21:05.080 --> 0:21:09.760 As a twelve year old, I was calling Bob Trumpy 0:21:09.760 --> 0:21:13.920 and sports talk as a kid. I'd call him once 0:21:13.960 --> 0:21:16.680 a week and we'd go round and round on things. 0:21:16.840 --> 0:21:20.159 I will never forget two phone calls to Bob Trumpey 0:21:20.200 --> 0:21:22.520 when I was growing up. One I got into an 0:21:22.640 --> 0:21:26.840 argument with him about Buddy Bell versus Wayne cren Chikey. 0:21:27.440 --> 0:21:30.560 The Reds had traded for Buddy Bell and gave him 0:21:30.600 --> 0:21:33.160 the third base job over Wayne crane Chickey and Wayne 0:21:33.200 --> 0:21:37.639 Crenchickey was having a career year and Buddy Bell struggled 0:21:37.680 --> 0:21:39.520 in his first couple of months with the Reds. And 0:21:39.560 --> 0:21:42.480 I called Trumpy one night and I guess I'm probably 0:21:42.560 --> 0:21:45.440 thirteen fourteen years old at this time and going round 0:21:45.480 --> 0:21:47.240 and around and why are they playing Buddy Bell? It 0:21:47.280 --> 0:21:49.440 should be Wayne cren Hicky's job. He should have never 0:21:49.520 --> 0:21:51.760 lost it. We went round and round and around and 0:21:51.800 --> 0:21:53.000 he eventually hung up on me. 0:21:55.359 --> 0:21:55.880 Was awesome. 0:21:56.720 --> 0:21:59.320 There was a time we were on family vacation in 0:21:59.440 --> 0:22:02.520 Cape Cod and I called him from Cape Cod and 0:22:02.600 --> 0:22:06.080
