WEBVTT - Bill Cunningham Show -- 12/8/25 0:00:05.320 --> 0:00:07.680 By Billy Cunningham in the Great America. Welcome this Monday 0:00:07.720 --> 0:00:10.119 afternoon in the tri States. So many issues going on 0:00:10.200 --> 0:00:14.160 in so little time. Of course, this Sunday, the Bengalis 0:00:14.200 --> 0:00:16.919 tee it up again against the Ravens, probably a game 0:00:16.920 --> 0:00:19.759 that means nothing, but who knows. I've seen some analysis 0:00:19.800 --> 0:00:22.240 this morning. If I keep saying this, if the Bengals 0:00:22.239 --> 0:00:24.720 went out, that means Pittsburgh got to lose three of 0:00:24.760 --> 0:00:28.000 the next four games, which is possible. And that's also 0:00:28.040 --> 0:00:30.840 if Baltimore has two or three ties of the next 0:00:30.840 --> 0:00:34.440 four games, that comes into play. One of the analysis was, well, 0:00:34.440 --> 0:00:37.120 what if the Pittsburgh Steelers tie a game or two? 0:00:37.159 --> 0:00:37.880 What does that mean? 0:00:38.080 --> 0:00:40.199 We're breaking it down a man that can break it 0:00:40.240 --> 0:00:43.680 down and tell me why James Madison, a good friend 0:00:43.680 --> 0:00:47.240 of George Washington and John Adams, gets into the college 0:00:47.240 --> 0:00:50.360 playoffs instead of Notre Dame. That's another issue the Rock's 0:00:50.360 --> 0:00:52.640 going to deal with once again. Moeger, Welcome to the 0:00:52.680 --> 0:00:55.120 Bill Cunningham Show. And first of all, can you break 0:00:55.160 --> 0:00:57.920 down where we are right now in Bengaledom give me 0:00:57.960 --> 0:00:59.080 a full report. 0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:02.280 Well, I'm not sure we have enough time to break 0:01:02.280 --> 0:01:06.160 down everything going on in Bengal dem but I'll put 0:01:06.160 --> 0:01:09.600 a to you this way with you know, whatever was 0:01:09.880 --> 0:01:13.000 eight minutes and forty nine seconds remaining in the fourth 0:01:13.080 --> 0:01:17.840 quarter yesterday the Bengals had a ten point lead, and 0:01:18.319 --> 0:01:23.839 I'm thinking if if they could somehow close out this game, 0:01:24.640 --> 0:01:26.480 then it's going to sort of feel like game on 0:01:26.600 --> 0:01:29.200 as it relates to their playoff chances. Right, Not that 0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:33.160 making the postseason was going to be easy or even likely, 0:01:33.240 --> 0:01:34.960 but you would have gone on the road beating the 0:01:35.000 --> 0:01:37.720 Buffalo Bills. You have a chance to play the Baltimore 0:01:37.800 --> 0:01:40.959 Ravens this week. Either Pittsburgh or Baltimore is going to 0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:44.280 lose because they played yesterday eight and changed to go 0:01:44.480 --> 0:01:48.040 you're up by ten, boy, even this Bengals team isn't 0:01:48.040 --> 0:01:50.360 going to blow that one. Well, as it turns out, 0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:55.600 they did because of a cacophony of mistakes. Bills go 0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:58.600 down and score in four plays. Joe Burrow throws to 0:01:58.600 --> 0:02:02.280 pick six, another pick on a tip pass. Oh, they 0:02:02.280 --> 0:02:04.560 can't get off the field on Josh Allen running the 0:02:04.560 --> 0:02:08.040 ball on third and fifteen. Oh, it just it was 0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:11.320 a microcosm of the season to a degree. A defense 0:02:11.360 --> 0:02:14.680 that has failed to rise to the occasion every single 0:02:14.720 --> 0:02:18.359 time falters again, yep. And the one thing you kind 0:02:18.360 --> 0:02:20.119 of felt like you could hang your hat on, which 0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:22.080 is Joe Burrow having the ball in his hands with 0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:25.520 a lead, unfortunately goes awry and this team falls to 0:02:25.560 --> 0:02:26.079 four and nine. 0:02:26.200 --> 0:02:28.360 Have you thought about writing a book on this season? 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:32.040 Because every game is like a chapter of Shakespeare in proportions, 0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:35.399 the highest of law hies, the lowest of lows, all 0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:39.400 happening against the Bengals. Against the Bengals, it never happens 0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:42.320 toward them. They go to Baltimore, which you thought was 0:02:42.560 --> 0:02:46.280 a tough place to play. They beat Lamar Jackson in 0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:49.640 Baltimore Thanksgiving Night, Then with eight and change left, they 0:02:49.720 --> 0:02:53.400 got a ten point lead in Buffalo and you're thinking, Okay, 0:02:53.480 --> 0:02:56.560 they're gonna come home. Then beat Baltimore again, go the 0:02:56.560 --> 0:03:00.200 next three games they're back in. Have you thought about 0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:02.560 a book and each chapter would be like there might 0:03:02.560 --> 0:03:05.519 be seventeen chapters in the book, but this one, yeah, 0:03:05.800 --> 0:03:08.720 has got to be like the Jets or like the Bears. 0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:11.200 Incredible. You can't make this stuff up. 0:03:11.240 --> 0:03:11.320 Mo. 0:03:12.800 --> 0:03:13.320 Yeah. 0:03:13.160 --> 0:03:16.040 The the manner in which they have lost has been remarkable, 0:03:16.120 --> 0:03:18.560 you know. Paul Danner Junior had the stat yesterday writer 0:03:18.639 --> 0:03:21.320 for The Athletic that since the beginning of last season, 0:03:21.480 --> 0:03:24.239 NFL teams when they score thirty three or more points 0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:28.400 are one, thirty six, ten and two. That doesn't include 0:03:28.400 --> 0:03:30.840 the Bengals, who are now four and seven. It's been 0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:34.960 a hallmark of these last two years where they score 0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:36.800 a bunch of points and they have a defense that 0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:39.280 simply can't get off the field. And look, Joe Burrow 0:03:39.360 --> 0:03:42.160 threw a pitch six yesterday that he can't throw. But 0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:47.360 you know, this team demands he be perfect and man 0:03:47.400 --> 0:03:50.720 for three plus quarters, he was, he was awesome yesterday 0:03:50.760 --> 0:03:52.960 for three plus quarters. He throws a pick six, he 0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:55.680 makes a mistake. It can't happen, certainly can't happen in 0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:58.200 the fourth quarter when you're trying to protect the lead. 0:03:58.760 --> 0:04:01.600 But the Bengals demand that Oburrow do everything for them. 0:04:01.640 --> 0:04:04.040 The Bengals demand that Joe Burrow be perfect, and when 0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:07.640 that doesn't work, the infrastructure of the team isn't strong 0:04:07.760 --> 0:04:11.119 enough to avoid a collapse. And that's exactly what happened yesterday. 0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:13.480 Of course you want to ignore for a moment, I'll 0:04:13.520 --> 0:04:16.000 come back to it. The Crosstown shootout that's a different matter. 0:04:17.960 --> 0:04:21.360 And so Duke, by the way, I think as fair 0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:24.600 as Tony Pike's got to owe me sixteen hot fut Sundays, 0:04:24.720 --> 0:04:27.080 he keeps going double or nothing on UC and losing, 0:04:27.120 --> 0:04:31.440 that's a different issue. But Duke Tobin and Zach Taylor, 0:04:31.520 --> 0:04:33.640 the two of them together have picked the roster. I 0:04:33.680 --> 0:04:37.000 would think Zach Taylor has significant influence. I would think 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:39.680 Duke Tobin is the decision maker. I would think Mike 0:04:39.720 --> 0:04:41.880 Brown is in the background somewhere, but hell, he's ninety 0:04:41.960 --> 0:04:45.960 years old. But nonetheless, every news conference of Zach Taylor 0:04:46.120 --> 0:04:49.880 looks the same way. He looks perplexed, uncertain, doesn't know 0:04:49.920 --> 0:04:53.600 what to do. And so now the defensive coordinator Al Golden. 0:04:53.680 --> 0:04:57.120 You took the D out of his name, Golden. But nonetheless, 0:04:57.920 --> 0:05:02.680 the season's over, it's done. Joe Burrow turns thirty in December. 0:05:02.240 --> 0:05:05.560 Of next year. There's no hope. And Joe Burrow's is 0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:08.720 Joe Burrow bengalized at this point? Is he thoroughly infected 0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:08.960 or not? 0:05:11.040 --> 0:05:13.080 He looked like it at the end of the game yesterday. 0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:17.679 But you know, look the clock is ticking. This is why, 0:05:18.560 --> 0:05:21.320 this is why you have legitimate conversations about who should 0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:23.719 be picking the players next offseason. And this is why 0:05:23.760 --> 0:05:26.320 you have legitimate conversations about who the head coach should be. 0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:30.479 Because the Bengals have a meal ticket. Joe Burrow is it. 0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:33.120 They've got him for the rest of the decade. Who 0:05:33.200 --> 0:05:35.240 knows what's gonna happen with Joe Burrow at the end 0:05:35.240 --> 0:05:37.560 of the twenty twenty nine season. Who knows the next 0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:40.440 time You're gonna have a genuine a list quarterback Willie 0:05:40.440 --> 0:05:43.480 if you watched him yesterday for three plus quarters, who 0:05:43.520 --> 0:05:45.839 look like the best quarterback in the sport? And I 0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:49.599 think he is? And look again, thirty two to twenty 0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:52.320 eight or twenty eight to twenty five. You can't throw 0:05:52.360 --> 0:05:54.680 a pitch six right into the hands of an oncoming defender. 0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:57.720 You can't. Joe would be the first to admit that. 0:05:58.480 --> 0:06:02.239 But time is the essence here. The idea behind drafting 0:06:02.320 --> 0:06:05.400 Joe Burrow in twenty twenty was to win a championship. 0:06:04.839 --> 0:06:05.640 While you have him. 0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:08.480 They came agonizingly close at the end of the twenty 0:06:08.520 --> 0:06:11.559 twenty one season, and when they did, I think most 0:06:11.560 --> 0:06:14.800 of us believe that by now they would at least 0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:18.039 continue to be serious contentions. They're on the verge of 0:06:18.040 --> 0:06:20.640 missing the postseason for a third consecutive year, and you 0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:24.520 just you wonder, You wonder what he's thinking. You wonder 0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:27.520 what they're going to do because you're going to probably 0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:30.200 miss the postseason for a third consecutive year with Joe 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:33.200 Burrow as your quarterback. That was not supposed to happen. 0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:36.479 That can't happen, and so it's fair to wonder how 0:06:36.480 --> 0:06:38.719 do they get it turned around to the degree that 0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:41.120 a year from now, we're not talking about the Bengals 0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:43.200 scratching and clawing and trying to find their way into 0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:45.880 the postseason. We're talking about this team competing for a 0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:49.160 number one seed. We're talking about this team legitimately competing 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:50.000 for a championship. 0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:51.720 I want to ask you a big question a bit 0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:54.000 early before we go on the Crosstown shoot out, which 0:06:54.000 --> 0:06:54.240 I love. 0:06:54.279 --> 0:06:55.440 Are you ready for the big question? 0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:56.719 Yes? 0:06:57.920 --> 0:07:04.920 Who's in worse shape? Scott Saderfield, Zach Taylor or Wes Miller. 0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:08.479 Those are your three choices. You can have It's Miller 0:07:08.600 --> 0:07:11.680 time with Wes. You're gonna have Zach Taylor, who looks lost, 0:07:12.040 --> 0:07:14.800 or Scott Saderfield, who won seven in a row, then 0:07:14.840 --> 0:07:16.840 lost several in a row. At least they played Navy. 0:07:17.000 --> 0:07:20.680 God blessed the Navy. Who's in worse shape Saderfield, Taylor 0:07:20.840 --> 0:07:21.240 or Miller? 0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:25.560 Well, unfortunately for Less, I would have to say it's him, 0:07:25.800 --> 0:07:30.200 because with Zach Taylor you have Joe Burrow and you 0:07:30.360 --> 0:07:34.960 have a track record. Now, it's a track record that's 0:07:35.000 --> 0:07:38.560 heavily weighted towards things that happened longer and longer ago. 0:07:39.360 --> 0:07:41.120 But he was the coach for back to back AFC 0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:44.440 championship games. That was the coach for a Super Bowl appearance. Yeah, 0:07:44.560 --> 0:07:48.360 I think with Scott Saderfield, as unfulfilling as the end 0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:51.840 of the season has been, they were better this year. 0:07:52.280 --> 0:07:52.640 Now. 0:07:53.040 --> 0:07:55.120 I think it's completely fair to wonder what's the state 0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:58.080 of the roster going to look like next season, because 0:07:58.560 --> 0:08:01.120 I think when you have all the player that came 0:08:01.160 --> 0:08:03.480 back to UC for this year, and when you have 0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:07.240 the impact players the Bearcats acquired via the transfer portal 0:08:07.560 --> 0:08:10.720 who are basically going to be one year guys, most 0:08:10.760 --> 0:08:13.680 of their really good players are set to leave, and 0:08:13.760 --> 0:08:18.040 so seven and five feels pretty underwhelming, but it was 0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:21.920 mathematical improvement. I think with Wes Miller. You lack the 0:08:22.040 --> 0:08:26.360 track record, right, Like the baseline level of expectation is 0:08:26.400 --> 0:08:29.360 make the NCAA Tournament. It hasn't happened yet. Then you 0:08:29.400 --> 0:08:31.600 look at the team and how they're playing. You look 0:08:31.600 --> 0:08:35.319 at the NCAA Tournament mass last season going into Big 0:08:35.360 --> 0:08:39.120 Twelve play, the Bearcats had one non conference loss, felt 0:08:39.120 --> 0:08:41.400 pretty good, and then we saw the uphill battle they 0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:43.880 had once Big Twelfth play got here. That was with 0:08:44.000 --> 0:08:47.559 a talented team, Willie. The Bearcats last year had players 0:08:47.600 --> 0:08:51.319 who when they left went to places like Saint John's Baylor, 0:08:52.280 --> 0:08:56.480 a Big ten school in Penn State. Northwestern didn't go 0:08:56.600 --> 0:09:00.840 to these remote outposts to finish or continue their college basketball. 0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:02.600 And so you look at it this year. They already 0:09:02.640 --> 0:09:06.520 have three losses. They have a game that's effectively a 0:09:06.600 --> 0:09:09.280 road game against an SEC team in Georgia that has 0:09:09.360 --> 0:09:12.400 lost once. Then a week from Saturday, they have to 0:09:12.400 --> 0:09:15.280 play effectively a road game in South Carolina against the 0:09:15.320 --> 0:09:19.439 Clemson Team's pretty good. You already have three losses, one 0:09:19.480 --> 0:09:22.599 of them's bad at home to Eastern Michigan. You have 0:09:22.720 --> 0:09:25.959 two more games against high major competition. Oh, and then 0:09:26.000 --> 0:09:28.440 the Big Twelve starts, and the first game is going 0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:32.080 to be against Houston. This was looked at as an 0:09:32.240 --> 0:09:37.120 NCAA tournament or bust seasons. Right now, making the NCAA 0:09:37.200 --> 0:09:40.840 tournament doesn't seem likely. And that's year five for Wes Miller. 0:09:41.559 --> 0:09:44.240 And I think we all know. As much as I 0:09:44.360 --> 0:09:46.560 really do like Wes a lot, I think I think 0:09:46.559 --> 0:09:50.160 he would be the first to tell you that not 0:09:50.320 --> 0:09:52.920 making the tournament this year was going to make the 0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:55.880 Natives even more restless than they already are, and was 0:09:55.920 --> 0:10:02.280 going to put his job status squarely in perhaps the administration's. 0:10:00.920 --> 0:10:05.880 Well, you know, my cousin, John Cunningham athletic director. You see, 0:10:05.960 --> 0:10:08.760 after two years, gave him a long term, guaranteed bonus 0:10:08.840 --> 0:10:11.320 light and extension of his contract. Do you know how 0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:14.760 much money it would cost to tell Wes Miller goodbye 0:10:15.440 --> 0:10:16.320 at the end of this year. 0:10:18.080 --> 0:10:20.480 Cost a lot of money, Bill, no question about it, 0:10:20.559 --> 0:10:23.319 millions when he gave him and when he gave him 0:10:23.320 --> 0:10:26.679 that extension. What they were trying to do was have 0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:29.800 the head basketball coaches salary reflect the league they were in. 0:10:29.840 --> 0:10:32.000 They paid him a big twelve salary, and I think 0:10:32.520 --> 0:10:35.960 for the better part of three and a half years, 0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:39.280 everybody has been willing to give Wes the benefit of 0:10:39.280 --> 0:10:41.600 the doubt. I think when things unfolded towards the end 0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:43.600 of the season the way they did for the Bearcats, 0:10:43.920 --> 0:10:46.760 not just not making the tournament, but not really even 0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:49.319 coming close, playing some games at the end of the 0:10:49.360 --> 0:10:51.680 year where they were just simply not very competitive, I 0:10:51.720 --> 0:10:55.240 think it really started to make people go, Okay, time 0:10:55.280 --> 0:10:58.520 for something better, Time for something bigger. That has to 0:10:58.559 --> 0:11:02.960 include at least come close to the NCAA tournament. You know, 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:06.440 it's one thing if hey, your team sixty nine and 0:11:06.480 --> 0:11:08.719 you were just on the outside looking in and had 0:11:08.720 --> 0:11:10.839 a good resume and the committee didn't take you, it's 0:11:10.840 --> 0:11:14.599 something else entirely, if Selection Sunday gets here and the 0:11:14.600 --> 0:11:19.000 Bearcats are an afterthought, something else entirely. If you lose 0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:25.559 fifteen games, sixteen games, seventeen games, and so, I think 0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:27.640 it's completely reasonable to wonder how they're going to be 0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:30.440 able to avoid doing that, And if they don't avoid 0:11:30.440 --> 0:11:34.360 doing that, I think the conversations about West Miller are 0:11:34.400 --> 0:11:35.559 going to be really interesting. Now. 0:11:35.559 --> 0:11:38.080 You know, Richard Patino is now bathed deeply in the 0:11:38.160 --> 0:11:40.960 blue waters of Xavier basketball. When he showed up after 0:11:41.000 --> 0:11:43.559 the game at the Dane Gardens. He came in as 0:11:43.600 --> 0:11:47.560 a conquering hero to Rome. All the Plebeians were there, 0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:50.080 they were shouting. He picked up the check, He left 0:11:50.120 --> 0:11:52.720 thousands of dollars of the Dane of Gardens and bought 0:11:52.720 --> 0:11:55.280 the beer for the Xavier students. He was carried down 0:11:55.280 --> 0:11:57.679 in the back of Xavier students to a chariot, and 0:11:57.720 --> 0:12:00.840 then off he went to his palatial estate. Richard Patino 0:12:00.960 --> 0:12:03.240 is the real deal. And now UC's gonna have some 0:12:03.320 --> 0:12:05.839 more serious problems. Let's move on to something else, Mo, 0:12:06.240 --> 0:12:10.640 and that is the college football Playoffs playoffs. Now, is 0:12:10.880 --> 0:12:14.880 James Madison in Tulane among the twelve best football teams 0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:16.000 and Notre Dame out? 0:12:16.160 --> 0:12:19.200 What do you say about that one, Mo, Well, they're. 0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:21.480 Not among the twelve best teams, but they're in based 0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:25.360 on agreed upon rules that everybody signed off on. The 0:12:25.480 --> 0:12:28.920 NCAA tournament, which obviously has a larger field, has never 0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:31.679 been about taking the best sixty eight teams. It's always 0:12:31.720 --> 0:12:34.840 been about taking the sixty eight teams that either qualified 0:12:34.880 --> 0:12:41.240 automatically or were chosen by a committee. And you know, 0:12:42.080 --> 0:12:44.320 I think Notre Dame to a large degree got screwed 0:12:44.960 --> 0:12:48.160 because the message for weeks was their head to head 0:12:48.200 --> 0:12:51.319 loss against Miami didn't matter. Well, I think it should have, 0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:55.959 But for weeks on end, the committee decided that head 0:12:56.000 --> 0:12:59.480 to head loss didn't matter, right to the degree that 0:13:00.240 --> 0:13:03.240 the Irish were ranked ahead of the Hurricanes. Suddenly, with 0:13:03.400 --> 0:13:06.560 neither team playing a game this weekend, we're given an 0:13:06.559 --> 0:13:09.640 opposite message. Suddenly that head to head game does matter, 0:13:10.040 --> 0:13:12.160 and Notre Dame is on the outside looking in. Now, 0:13:12.280 --> 0:13:14.680 what I would say to Notre Dame is number one, yes, 0:13:14.880 --> 0:13:19.720 your gripes are very legitimate. Number two, you want your independence. 0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:22.840 You don't want to be in a conference. Sometimes independence 0:13:22.880 --> 0:13:25.480 comes at a price. This, to a degree is what 0:13:25.679 --> 0:13:28.280 it is. They can't win a conference championship. Now, I 0:13:28.320 --> 0:13:32.280 guess they have signed a memorandum of understanding that will 0:13:32.440 --> 0:13:35.360 essentially guarantee them inclusion if they're ranked in the top 0:13:35.440 --> 0:13:39.080 twelve moving forward. That memorandum of understanding doesn't go into 0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:42.760 effect next year. So, okay, you have cherished and fought 0:13:42.840 --> 0:13:47.120 for and maintained your independence from a conference. Okay, that 0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:49.840 comes at a price. This is part of the price 0:13:49.880 --> 0:13:52.920 that you pay. The James Madison inclusion and the two 0:13:53.040 --> 0:13:57.000 lane inclusion. Look, I certainly understand arguments that suggest we're 0:13:57.040 --> 0:13:59.560 trying to crown a champion here, the field is too 0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:02.200 small for a feel good story. Let's pick the best 0:14:02.240 --> 0:14:05.439 twelve teams. Neither too later. James Madison then would be 0:14:05.520 --> 0:14:08.720 considered among the best twelve teams. 0:14:09.120 --> 0:14:11.079 But everybody agreed upon these rules going in. 0:14:11.600 --> 0:14:13.480 Just like in the ACC. You know, there was a 0:14:13.559 --> 0:14:18.200 movement to have Miami play in the ACC championship game 0:14:18.280 --> 0:14:21.720 even though they didn't qualify based on tiebreakers, so a 0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:25.400 five loss Duke team got to play for the ACC title. 0:14:25.840 --> 0:14:30.040 When Duke beat Virginia, that effectively guaranteed James Madison a 0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:33.960 spot in the playoffs. Those ACC rules were agreed upon, 0:14:34.680 --> 0:14:37.760 membership had a chance to vote, they agreed on their tiebreaker, 0:14:38.400 --> 0:14:41.920 and the tiebreaker played out unfortunately in the short term, 0:14:41.960 --> 0:14:44.320 at least not in Miami's favor, although they ultimately did 0:14:45.080 --> 0:14:47.880 make it. We have procedures and protocols for a reason. 0:14:48.240 --> 0:14:51.000 The procedures and protocols for the ACC dictated that the 0:14:51.080 --> 0:14:53.840 five loss team played for the conference title. The procedures 0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:59.200 of playoffs say that the top five ranked conference champions 0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:03.280 make the postseason make the playoff. The way things unfolded 0:15:03.320 --> 0:15:06.400 this year. That meant a bid for Tulane, and it 0:15:06.520 --> 0:15:08.880 meant a bid for James Madison. And I'm sure that 0:15:09.240 --> 0:15:11.840 that series of protocols and rules will be blown up 0:15:11.920 --> 0:15:14.120 at the end of this season because you're gonna have 0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:16.000 a lot of folks in the sport, the power brokers 0:15:16.000 --> 0:15:17.800 who don't want to see the little guy get a chance. 0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:21.200 And I understand it, I do, I really do. I'm 0:15:21.240 --> 0:15:23.480 not sure I want to watch James Madison play Oregon. 0:15:23.760 --> 0:15:26.960 But if you're griping about it, well, the gripe should 0:15:27.000 --> 0:15:30.200 have came. The grape should have come when these set 0:15:30.240 --> 0:15:31.800 of rules were agreed to to begin with. 0:15:32.080 --> 0:15:34.280 And you know what's behind this is the Sherman Clayton 0:15:34.360 --> 0:15:35.960 Anti Trust Act. You know what I'm saying. 0:15:36.680 --> 0:15:39.440 There were decuitions held about the lawyers for the smaller 0:15:39.720 --> 0:15:42.000 schools saying, look, if you don't include us in all 0:15:42.040 --> 0:15:44.760 this money. I think each school gets like four million 0:15:44.800 --> 0:15:47.640 dollars plus plus plus, we're going to sue under the 0:15:47.720 --> 0:15:51.080 Sherman and Clayton Ani Trust Act. So the lawyers essentially 0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:54.040 designed that Notre Dame would not be in your comments 0:15:54.080 --> 0:15:54.680 on that one. 0:15:56.040 --> 0:15:59.480 Well, you know again, Notre Dame. I understand the gripe. 0:16:00.520 --> 0:16:03.640 I share it for weeks on end when you're told 0:16:03.720 --> 0:16:06.720 one thing and then you're told something entirely different, with 0:16:07.000 --> 0:16:10.400 no game on the field to influence the decision making. 0:16:11.400 --> 0:16:16.480 I understand their gripe. But again, there's a price you 0:16:16.560 --> 0:16:19.440 pay for your independence. It's not always going to work 0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:22.760 out for you, and in this particular set of circumstances, 0:16:23.160 --> 0:16:26.320 it didn't work out for Notre Dame. I do understand 0:16:26.360 --> 0:16:29.320 their frustration, and by the way, it doesn't bother me 0:16:29.400 --> 0:16:31.520 at all the fact that they've chosen to not play 0:16:31.560 --> 0:16:34.240 in a ball game. Marcus Freeman and the athletic director 0:16:34.320 --> 0:16:36.800 there have to make decisions based on what they think 0:16:36.920 --> 0:16:41.000 is best for Notre Dame's football program. Florida State was 0:16:41.080 --> 0:16:44.480 snubbed in the fourteen College Football Playoff two years ago 0:16:45.080 --> 0:16:47.240 and then embarrassed itself on the field with a bunch 0:16:47.240 --> 0:16:49.880 of guys who didn't play against Georgia. I would say 0:16:50.000 --> 0:16:52.080 not playing in a ball game is better than doing 0:16:52.120 --> 0:16:54.920 what Florida State did two years ago. The ball system 0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:57.360 is blowing up anyway, But yeah, look. 0:16:59.640 --> 0:17:04.760 The what Notre Dame did, What Notre Dame has done to. 0:17:04.840 --> 0:17:08.080 This point, by not being in a conference. Can't win 0:17:08.160 --> 0:17:11.080 a conference championship if you're not in one. And so 0:17:11.560 --> 0:17:14.680 when you have a resume that's deserving of consideration, you 0:17:14.760 --> 0:17:17.800 are still putting yourself at the mercy of a committee 0:17:17.880 --> 0:17:21.280 and their individual preferences and biases, and you get what 0:17:21.400 --> 0:17:23.480 you have come And even if I disagree with what 0:17:23.560 --> 0:17:25.679 the committee ultimately chose to do with them. 0:17:25.720 --> 0:17:29.560 Well, a giraft is a horse designed by a committee. 0:17:30.080 --> 0:17:31.520 Now are you ready for the Are you ready for 0:17:31.680 --> 0:17:34.720 the big question? Are you ready for a big question? 0:17:35.160 --> 0:17:35.360 Yeah? 0:17:35.640 --> 0:17:38.000 Zach Taylor's got one year left on his contract, makes 0:17:38.040 --> 0:17:40.159 about four and a half million a year. What are 0:17:40.200 --> 0:17:43.200 the odds of Bill Belichick, along with Jordan Hudson and 0:17:43.400 --> 0:17:46.840 John Gruden coaching the Bengals next year other than Zach Taylor? 0:17:49.200 --> 0:17:50.360 Why would I want either of them? 0:17:50.760 --> 0:17:53.000 Well, because number one, Jordan Hudson would be the story 0:17:53.000 --> 0:17:54.920 of the year. You talk about good stuff that we 0:17:54.960 --> 0:17:58.200 would have talked about. Bill Belichick did a great job 0:17:58.280 --> 0:18:01.000 at the tar Heels and John Ruden still has a 0:18:01.040 --> 0:18:03.520 lawsuit pending. What are the odds of any of that happening? 0:18:05.800 --> 0:18:06.600 Zero point zero. 0:18:06.840 --> 0:18:08.960 There's a better chance of me getting Sidney Sweeney to 0:18:10.080 --> 0:18:14.639 come to next year's iHeart Media Christmas Party. Mike, I 0:18:14.760 --> 0:18:17.280 don't know who the successor to Zach Taylor would be. 0:18:17.640 --> 0:18:19.520 I would be willing to bet it's not going to 0:18:19.560 --> 0:18:23.119 be some regurgitated coach by Bill Belichick or John Gruden. 0:18:23.160 --> 0:18:25.600 How about Jordan Hudson and Sidney Sween. 0:18:25.720 --> 0:18:29.560 Jordan Hudson. If Jordan Hudson made an Cincinnati I can't 0:18:29.560 --> 0:18:30.720 imagine how you would behave. 0:18:31.480 --> 0:18:35.240 It'd be wonderful, it would be absolutely wonderful. All right, Moe, 0:18:35.320 --> 0:18:37.639 thank you, But we look forward to the off season 0:18:37.720 --> 0:18:42.000 now with Scott Souderfield, Zach Taylor, Wes Miller, Bill Belichick, 0:18:42.040 --> 0:18:44.520 and John Gruden. Moe, thank you very much for coming 0:18:44.560 --> 0:18:46.520 on The Bill Cunningham Show. And hopefully we'll do something 0:18:46.600 --> 0:18:50.359 next Monday on the Bengals. Bengals great victory, possibly this 0:18:50.520 --> 0:18:53.800 Sunday against the Ravens, and hopefully the Steelers retie to 0:18:53.920 --> 0:18:56.720 of their remaining games, and if that happens, the Bengals 0:18:56.760 --> 0:18:58.360 are in Mo. Thank you very much. 0:18:59.720 --> 0:19:02.159 And then we have to have a like a segment 0:19:02.200 --> 0:19:03.560 where we preview the Liberty. 0:19:03.320 --> 0:19:08.640 Ball, right correct, it'll be huge, huge on seven hundred WQLW, 0:19:09.840 --> 0:19:14.879 sure hit the music. I have a call in to 0:19:15.000 --> 0:19:19.080 Doug Brannon, the attorney for Alex Shrevinsky, had a trial 0:19:19.160 --> 0:19:22.880 schedule for today set off until January. I'm still predicting 0:19:22.920 --> 0:19:25.200 the case. We're not going to trial because the city 0:19:25.200 --> 0:19:29.320 of Cincinnati cannot afford to have police officers, in fact, 0:19:29.359 --> 0:19:33.960 command police officers testify on behalf of the defendant. Alex 0:19:34.000 --> 0:19:38.959 Stravinsky hardly ever does the defense in this case. Doug Brannon, 0:19:39.440 --> 0:19:44.200 the attorney issue subpoenis for cops to come in to 0:19:44.320 --> 0:19:47.399 support the defendant. And so I don't know why it 0:19:47.560 --> 0:19:50.640 was continued. Have some calls in to some individuals. We'll 0:19:50.640 --> 0:19:53.080 find out what one happened to what went on later on. 0:19:53.720 --> 0:19:57.280 So we wish the defendant who was beaten to within 0:19:57.320 --> 0:20:00.320 an inch of his life, Alex Shavinsky and also Allie 0:20:01.000 --> 0:20:03.480 had her head treated like a football on Elm Street. 0:20:04.080 --> 0:20:06.600 And then the city fathers and mothers demanded that white 0:20:06.640 --> 0:20:10.240 people be charged with a crime and so and Alex 0:20:10.280 --> 0:20:13.400 Stravinsky was, which was a bunch of bs. So we'll 0:20:13.440 --> 0:20:16.600 try to discover by Tuesday or Wednesday, what's happening in 0:20:16.640 --> 0:20:20.640 the courtroom downtown. Secondly, as you know, the last four 0:20:20.720 --> 0:20:23.919 or five days, I was in the Naples, Florida Broadcast 0:20:24.000 --> 0:20:27.119 Center of iHeartMedia. Had a little time off, play a 0:20:27.119 --> 0:20:29.240 little golf of the boys get down South. 0:20:29.320 --> 0:20:29.879 I love it there. 0:20:30.920 --> 0:20:33.600 While I was gone, the whole issue broke about half 0:20:33.680 --> 0:20:37.960 Tad Pureval and the REPO man coming after repossession seemingly 0:20:38.119 --> 0:20:42.680 multiple vehicle repossessions of af Tad Pureval, who spends more 0:20:42.720 --> 0:20:44.719 money on his hair than on his cars. 0:20:45.440 --> 0:20:46.480 A lot of questions on that. 0:20:46.600 --> 0:20:49.240 But to go back a little bit, the three people 0:20:49.760 --> 0:20:53.440 who run the City of Cincinnati's billion dollar budget are 0:20:53.800 --> 0:20:57.960 number one haf tab puer Ofval, Number two Share her long, 0:20:58.440 --> 0:21:02.840 Number three jan Michelle lemon Kearney. She's the top vote 0:21:02.840 --> 0:21:06.280 getter on council every year. She's the conscience of council 0:21:06.880 --> 0:21:10.160 along with Victoria Parks, who's the President of pro Tem 0:21:10.320 --> 0:21:12.720 of Council. By the way, she's the one that said 0:21:12.960 --> 0:21:16.320 Holly begged to be beaten. That's another story. Those three 0:21:16.440 --> 0:21:19.800 individuals run the city of Cincinnati economically. Who just paid 0:21:19.840 --> 0:21:23.400 eight point one million dollars to the so called protesters 0:21:23.920 --> 0:21:27.359 in twenty twenty after the so called George Floyd killing 0:21:27.600 --> 0:21:30.400 in Minneapolis, that's another story I deal without in a moment. 0:21:31.320 --> 0:21:35.399 On one hand, I'm not sure i've met Jan Michelle 0:21:35.520 --> 0:21:38.680 Lemon Kearney, but she is the top vote geter on council. 0:21:39.080 --> 0:21:41.560 She's going to be the next mayor. I think she's 0:21:41.600 --> 0:21:45.520 in her mid sixties or late sixties. Wanning Hills graduate, 0:21:46.400 --> 0:21:49.200 the lady went to the Ivy League school. 0:21:49.320 --> 0:21:49.679 She went to. 0:21:49.760 --> 0:21:52.680 Dartmouth, got a degree from Dartmouth in the Ivy League. 0:21:53.160 --> 0:21:57.000 Also got two degrees from Harvard. One is a master's degree, 0:21:57.640 --> 0:22:00.399 the other one is the Jery's doctor degree, which by 0:22:00.440 --> 0:22:03.160 the way, I hold proudly from the University of Toledo. 0:22:04.480 --> 0:22:06.080 So the woman is extremely smart. 0:22:07.160 --> 0:22:10.479 She's run many businesses, got into public service about four 0:22:10.560 --> 0:22:14.240 or five years ago, and she's always the top vote 0:22:14.240 --> 0:22:17.680 get her own council. So she's one of the three 0:22:17.720 --> 0:22:21.320 that run financially the city. Looking at a story a 0:22:21.400 --> 0:22:26.040 few years back from the Dayton Daily News, and I'll 0:22:26.040 --> 0:22:27.919 pull it up here so I look at it more closely. 0:22:28.920 --> 0:22:32.760 The new Lieutenant governor candidate that was Eric Kearney. He 0:22:32.880 --> 0:22:35.440 was in the state Senate at the time, and his wife, 0:22:36.000 --> 0:22:39.560 that's the current council member, Jan Michelle lemon Kearney owe 0:22:39.640 --> 0:22:43.520 nearly one million dollars in back taxes. So the story 0:22:43.560 --> 0:22:45.000 cut in my eye a few years ago. That's a 0:22:45.040 --> 0:22:48.120 lot of money to owe a million dollars in back taxas, 0:22:48.520 --> 0:22:51.399 and both of them owed owe it to the federal government, 0:22:51.440 --> 0:22:53.679 or at least owed it. Eric Kearney, I met him 0:22:53.680 --> 0:22:55.680 a few times, was in the state Senate for about 0:22:55.680 --> 0:22:58.440 eight years. Good guy, good man, funny, great to be with. 0:22:58.960 --> 0:23:01.919 Go into the story, the two of them found several 0:23:02.000 --> 0:23:06.200 businesses running up IRS debts of close to one million 0:23:06.240 --> 0:23:09.840 dollars plus plus plus. The story goes on to say, 0:23:09.880 --> 0:23:13.280 we're working it out. I'm an entrepreneur, so Jan Michelle 0:23:13.359 --> 0:23:17.920 lemon Kearney, I hope she's worked out her difficulties. She 0:23:18.000 --> 0:23:21.320 didn't pay her quarterly estimate, she didn't pay her quarterly 0:23:22.840 --> 0:23:25.639 payments to the Internal Revenue Service. Those are the monies 0:23:25.760 --> 0:23:29.280 out of your employees paycheck that the employer matches that 0:23:29.400 --> 0:23:32.840 handles Social Security. So when you don't pay your quarterlyes 0:23:32.960 --> 0:23:35.960 FIKA taxes, they will come after you for that because 0:23:36.119 --> 0:23:39.440 it's not your money, it's your employees money. And so 0:23:39.560 --> 0:23:42.520 after a while, the two of them, according to this 0:23:42.600 --> 0:23:47.080 story Dayton Daily News and the year is twenty thirteen. 0:23:47.880 --> 0:23:51.880 Democratic Lieutenant Governor candidate Eric Kearney and his wife jan 0:23:52.000 --> 0:23:55.520 Michelle Lemon Kearney and their businesses owe nearly one million 0:23:55.560 --> 0:23:59.080 dollars in back taxes, according to the records Hamlet County Recorder. 0:24:00.040 --> 0:24:00.840 I'm breaking it down. 0:24:01.320 --> 0:24:03.360 That's not good. It's kind of bad. I hope it's 0:24:03.400 --> 0:24:03.840 worked out. 0:24:04.920 --> 0:24:07.840 An employee er must take the moneies out of the 0:24:07.880 --> 0:24:10.720 employee paychecks and give it to FIKA, and you have 0:24:10.800 --> 0:24:12.520 to match that. I think it's about six point two 0:24:12.600 --> 0:24:15.879 five percent each, about thirteen percent, and that's the Social 0:24:15.960 --> 0:24:19.000 Security fighter taxes. As an employer, you don't pay those 0:24:19.320 --> 0:24:22.399 you've collected it. Don't pay them. You've got problems and 0:24:22.640 --> 0:24:26.080 a nice lady likely be be the next mayor. But 0:24:26.359 --> 0:24:28.280 is it fair to say she's had in the past 0:24:28.600 --> 0:24:31.920 serious financial problems? Is out a yes or no? Raise 0:24:31.960 --> 0:24:32.199 your hand. 0:24:32.240 --> 0:24:34.920 If it's a yes, all right, you agree with me. 0:24:35.440 --> 0:24:39.000 Secondly, next woman in charge of the City of Cincinnati 0:24:39.080 --> 0:24:41.760 finances of billion dollars a year is share a long 0:24:42.760 --> 0:24:46.040 so uh? And I want to thank Sharon Cooliage. Sharon 0:24:46.080 --> 0:24:49.200 Cooliage and now works for the Prosecutor's office for running 0:24:49.240 --> 0:24:54.040 these stories about the selection of share Al Long, and 0:24:54.119 --> 0:24:57.080 this goes on to say the headline is SHAREL Long 0:24:57.200 --> 0:25:01.320 has filed personal bankruptcy and it was a chapter thirteen 0:25:01.760 --> 0:25:05.879 something in that character and a lengthy story about why 0:25:06.000 --> 0:25:08.040 she owes the money and where the money went, et cetera. 0:25:08.320 --> 0:25:08.760 But it's a. 0:25:08.800 --> 0:25:12.000 Serious problem when you're seeking to become a city manager 0:25:12.600 --> 0:25:15.560 and guess what to filed bankruptcy and didn't disclose that 0:25:16.000 --> 0:25:17.879 they have to have pure of all. There was this 0:25:18.000 --> 0:25:22.320 big time law firm, a big time headhunting firm, spent 0:25:22.440 --> 0:25:27.280 his time looking into the several candidates for Cincinnati City Council, 0:25:27.720 --> 0:25:30.880 and city Council decided to more or less pick share 0:25:30.920 --> 0:25:34.639 Along this is in twenty twenty two to be the 0:25:34.720 --> 0:25:39.080 next city manager. And the story headline, written by Sharon 0:25:39.119 --> 0:25:43.199 Coolidge of the Inquiry, Cincinnati City Manager designate share Along 0:25:43.560 --> 0:25:45.719 would come to the job of managing the city's one 0:25:45.800 --> 0:25:49.439 billion dollars in budgets, having previously filed for personal bankruptcy 0:25:49.680 --> 0:25:53.240 and the history of small tax problems. The Inquiry is 0:25:53.280 --> 0:25:56.359 found have to have pure of All announced Long as 0:25:56.440 --> 0:26:00.280 his pick last Friday, and he did not know about 0:26:00.320 --> 0:26:04.840 Long's previous financial problems until Long told him on Wednesday, 0:26:04.880 --> 0:26:08.680 which is several days after she was selected. So you 0:26:08.760 --> 0:26:11.800 went through the process and she filed bankruptcy in twenty 0:26:11.960 --> 0:26:15.320 eight finalized in twenty thirteen. The state tax leans were 0:26:15.400 --> 0:26:17.800 less than one thousand dollars each in day to nine, 0:26:18.000 --> 0:26:23.600 eleven and fifteen. And I assume she's worked out the difficulties. 0:26:23.800 --> 0:26:26.119 She's now making about three hundred and fifty thousand dollars 0:26:26.160 --> 0:26:31.000 a year. But much like shall we say, the difficulties 0:26:32.080 --> 0:26:35.080 of Lemon Kearney, I hope it's been resolved. 0:26:35.119 --> 0:26:36.200 I believe it's been I don't know. 0:26:37.240 --> 0:26:40.760 She's filed personal bankruptcy and she's the city manager in 0:26:40.920 --> 0:26:42.359 charge of a billion dollar budget. 0:26:42.960 --> 0:26:43.040 Now. 0:26:43.320 --> 0:26:46.240 Bada booon, bada bing bata bang. I come up to 0:26:46.440 --> 0:26:51.760 current events. A few days ago, it was disclosed by 0:26:51.960 --> 0:26:55.040 someone in city Hall given to the news media me 0:26:55.160 --> 0:26:59.560 included and also A channel's five nine and nineteen that 0:27:00.280 --> 0:27:03.399 our current mayor, after a peer of all doesn't make 0:27:03.480 --> 0:27:07.400 car payments. The REPO man has visited after a Peer 0:27:07.440 --> 0:27:10.840 ofval On at least two occasions and popped his car. 0:27:11.400 --> 0:27:14.280 The REPO man showed up at city Hall and hooked 0:27:14.320 --> 0:27:18.080 up as Tesla in twenty twenty four and put it 0:27:18.160 --> 0:27:22.000 on the hook and hauled it away. Now it's kind 0:27:22.040 --> 0:27:24.800 of embarrassing. I think when the mayor of our city 0:27:25.280 --> 0:27:28.240 has his car repossessed, I think at least twice. 0:27:29.800 --> 0:27:33.120 So when that happened, that was quieted down. Not many 0:27:33.160 --> 0:27:34.080 people talked about it. 0:27:34.480 --> 0:27:37.399 Bought a boon ba ban bata bang because it didn't 0:27:37.400 --> 0:27:40.199 come to light until about a month ago. The day 0:27:40.240 --> 0:27:43.560 after the election, there was a repossession order issued against 0:27:43.600 --> 0:27:49.720 the mayor's twenty twenty three black Lincoln aviator, saying that 0:27:50.640 --> 0:27:55.600 repossessed the car because he's not making his payments. Now 0:27:56.680 --> 0:27:58.879 the inquir has a story on this, of course, and 0:27:59.600 --> 0:28:04.000 Kevines has written it is an opinion. The mayor says, 0:28:04.080 --> 0:28:06.800 quote last year, due to my carelessness and my auto 0:28:06.880 --> 0:28:09.240 pay on my car was not working and as a result, 0:28:09.320 --> 0:28:11.840 my car was repossessed. Since that time, I've been in 0:28:11.920 --> 0:28:14.280 possession of my car. I'm up to date on payments. 0:28:14.320 --> 0:28:19.120 I'm not aware of any other pending issues with the car. Well, 0:28:19.160 --> 0:28:21.760 what happened a month ago, November the fifth, when another 0:28:21.840 --> 0:28:25.720 repossession order was issued against a different car, And we're 0:28:25.720 --> 0:28:28.720 not sure about that either, Kevin Aldreys in the in 0:28:28.840 --> 0:28:31.600 Car goes on to say, Pure of All is not 0:28:31.800 --> 0:28:33.159 just any borrower trying to. 0:28:33.160 --> 0:28:33.840 Make ends meet. 0:28:34.200 --> 0:28:37.359 He's the mayor of a major American city responsible for 0:28:37.440 --> 0:28:40.760 overseeing a multi billion dollar budget. That job comes with 0:28:40.880 --> 0:28:45.680 high expectations of financial responsibility, just as important transparency when 0:28:45.720 --> 0:28:48.800 something goes wrong. The mayor essentially said, the dog ate 0:28:48.880 --> 0:28:52.760 my homework. That's my comment. The auto pay wasn't working 0:28:53.400 --> 0:28:57.880 doesn't really answer the question. Most repossessions involve days or 0:28:58.000 --> 0:29:03.280 months of begging someone to pay phone calls, text messages, emails, 0:29:03.320 --> 0:29:03.800 et cetera. 0:29:04.080 --> 0:29:05.120 And have to have pure of all. 0:29:05.200 --> 0:29:08.960 In twenty twenty four and now in December twenty five, 0:29:09.840 --> 0:29:11.280 it's not a person hard to find. 0:29:12.040 --> 0:29:12.760 You know where he is. 0:29:13.360 --> 0:29:15.920 That's how the first car was popped the repo man 0:29:16.320 --> 0:29:19.240 and this another car a year later is subject to 0:29:19.320 --> 0:29:23.000 another repossession. Leads me to conclude that the leaders of 0:29:23.080 --> 0:29:26.920 this city financially should not be in their present position. 0:29:28.240 --> 0:29:30.040 And the inquir goes on to say, it's hard to 0:29:30.200 --> 0:29:33.840 fathom how pure of all, who or whoever manages his 0:29:34.000 --> 0:29:38.920 finances missed all of the text messages, the mailed letters, 0:29:39.000 --> 0:29:41.360 the emails telling him you haven't made a car payment. 0:29:42.560 --> 0:29:45.160 It raises a different set of concerns about attention to 0:29:45.240 --> 0:29:47.960 detail and follow through. The out of pay story leaves 0:29:48.040 --> 0:29:52.600 more questions than answers. Doesn't make sense. So the three 0:29:52.720 --> 0:29:56.000 people in charge of our finances is number one, the 0:29:56.080 --> 0:30:00.760 city manager who's filed personal bankruptcy. Number two lemon Kearney, 0:30:01.320 --> 0:30:04.000 according to the Dayton Daily News, had about a million 0:30:04.080 --> 0:30:06.880 dollars in federal tax lines against her, and number three 0:30:06.920 --> 0:30:10.040 of the mayor who keeps getting his car repossessed the 0:30:10.200 --> 0:30:14.400 REPO man. Does this give you confidence the city is 0:30:14.440 --> 0:30:17.160 being well run financially? Then they pay eight point two 0:30:17.240 --> 0:30:20.520 million dollars to a bunch of protesters who were told 0:30:20.640 --> 0:30:24.280 dozens of times to leave the public streets, get off 0:30:24.320 --> 0:30:27.440 the sidewalks, you're going to be arrested. And after about 0:30:27.480 --> 0:30:31.120 ten or fifteen times they finally were arrested. They were 0:30:31.160 --> 0:30:35.080 held overnight and released. And now the city those financial 0:30:35.160 --> 0:30:39.680 advisors who filed bankruptcy and have cars repossessed, those people 0:30:39.960 --> 0:30:42.959 are now paying eight point two million dollars, two million 0:30:43.000 --> 0:30:46.760 dollars of which goes to ALFONSK. Hartstein, the ACLU attorney 0:30:46.800 --> 0:30:50.000 who's retired. Two million dollars to the attorney. And by 0:30:50.040 --> 0:30:53.560 the way, there's no better ACLU attorney that's ever existed, 0:30:53.680 --> 0:30:56.080 better than Alfonse co Hartstein. I had a case with 0:30:56.240 --> 0:30:58.040 him one time. That guy is good at what he does, 0:30:58.360 --> 0:31:00.600 but he's a big time lip. Shall we say, he's 0:31:00.640 --> 0:31:03.160 collecting two million dollars of your money and the rest 0:31:03.200 --> 0:31:05.400 of the six million go to the so called quote 0:31:05.440 --> 0:31:10.200 protesters are getting paid about seventeen thousand dollars each for protesting. 0:31:11.000 --> 0:31:13.440 The individuals making that decision are the ones that have 0:31:13.520 --> 0:31:14.360 filed bankruptcy. 0:31:15.080 --> 0:31:17.600 Do you have any confidence the city is financially well run? 0:31:17.880 --> 0:31:20.520 Raise your hand. I'm looking around. Do you think the 0:31:20.600 --> 0:31:21.480 city of Cincinnati? 0:31:21.560 --> 0:31:23.080 Where are we here? We are right there? Do you 0:31:23.160 --> 0:31:27.800 think the city of Cincinnati is being well run? Thank you? 0:31:28.680 --> 0:31:29.200 I agree. 0:31:30.040 --> 0:31:33.800 This is unbelievable. And when this money's were paid, John 0:31:33.880 --> 0:31:38.320 Cranley and Joe Dieters talked together. John Cranley said, let's 0:31:38.680 --> 0:31:40.320 lock them up. We don't have room in the jail. 0:31:40.400 --> 0:31:42.640 They were in a holding area. We'll let them all go. 0:31:42.960 --> 0:31:47.320 They were charged with misdemeanors of trespass which they obviously 0:31:47.400 --> 0:31:50.239 committed that act, and then released the next day. Now, 0:31:50.280 --> 0:31:53.840 they're getting paid, and the jurors to determine whether or 0:31:53.880 --> 0:31:55.880 not they should be paid anything would have been the 0:31:56.000 --> 0:31:59.200 jurors from southern Ohio, not just hamblin a county. Do 0:31:59.240 --> 0:32:02.320 you think the juror in Brown, Canon County, Adams County, 0:32:02.360 --> 0:32:05.360 Warren County, and Claremont County would have given these protesters 0:32:05.520 --> 0:32:09.520 eight point two million dollars? I don't think so. So, 0:32:10.040 --> 0:32:12.960 what in the hell is going around? Is happening in 0:32:13.000 --> 0:32:15.320 this place? Can you tell me what's going on? The 0:32:15.440 --> 0:32:19.320 mayor has his car popped, the city manager has filed bankruptcy, 0:32:19.560 --> 0:32:22.200 and the leader of council, according to the Dayton Daily 0:32:22.280 --> 0:32:26.080 News in twenty thirteen, going Forward, had won million dollars 0:32:26.360 --> 0:32:29.760 in tax lines against her, and they're the ones in charge. 0:32:31.520 --> 0:32:35.560 Do you see a problem? Now, let's continue with more 0:32:36.800 --> 0:32:39.640 coming up later. We have Congressman Warren Davidson, a good 0:32:39.680 --> 0:32:42.880 friend of Jeff Beckham's, and more and furthermore, more of 0:32:42.920 --> 0:32:46.720 my comments. And the city just elected the same crew 0:32:47.120 --> 0:32:51.800 by eighty some percent to keep it going. And a 0:32:51.880 --> 0:32:55.200 good police chief Fiji is fired. They're gonna have to 0:32:55.280 --> 0:32:58.560 pay her millions and pay Chief fire Chief Washington millions. 0:32:58.760 --> 0:33:01.920 Keep paying out millions in onions and millions by individuals 0:33:02.200 --> 0:33:07.000 like the mayor who says car repossessed twice, he spends 0:33:07.040 --> 0:33:11.680 more money on his hairdoo than on cars. Bill Cunningham 0:33:11.720 --> 0:33:14.800 News Radio seven hundred ww Kenyon All and one of 0:33:14.840 --> 0:33:18.400 the great representatives in the Congress's Warren Davidson up the 0:33:18.400 --> 0:33:20.920 state of Ohio. Have been there about ten years, graduated 0:33:20.960 --> 0:33:24.720 from Notre Dame, also at West Point Graduate and Congressman 0:33:24.760 --> 0:33:27.280 Warren Davidson. First of all, welcome again to the Bill 0:33:27.320 --> 0:33:30.280 Cunningham Show and Merry Christmas. And I want to get 0:33:30.280 --> 0:33:34.440 a military guy's perspective on the double tap that happened 0:33:34.480 --> 0:33:37.280 on these Narco terrorists and how unusual is it for 0:33:37.360 --> 0:33:40.400 that to occur. The admiral involved seems to be a 0:33:40.920 --> 0:33:43.640 platinum gold when it comes to ethics, values and morals. 0:33:43.960 --> 0:33:46.720 What he did was have out his side a jag lawyer, 0:33:46.840 --> 0:33:49.760 Department of Defense approving what he was doing. So how 0:33:49.800 --> 0:33:52.920 does a military man process what's happening in the Caribbean. 0:33:55.040 --> 0:33:57.520 Is very to see you and all your listeners as well. 0:33:58.640 --> 0:34:00.560 Thanks for having me on. And look, you know, when 0:34:00.600 --> 0:34:03.280 you think about the military, go back to George Washington 0:34:03.360 --> 0:34:08.080 on Christmas, they cross the Delaware and change the course 0:34:08.120 --> 0:34:12.600 of the revolution. So you know, we're here at a 0:34:12.680 --> 0:34:15.760 time where we've just remembered the day that lives in infamy, 0:34:15.880 --> 0:34:20.560 December seventh, and now we're moving moving forward. But you know, 0:34:20.680 --> 0:34:24.040 you look at the long legacy of our military. Look 0:34:24.239 --> 0:34:30.560 we the military. They take action when all the diplomacy fails. Right, 0:34:30.640 --> 0:34:34.600 we tried the asking nicely, we told them to stop, 0:34:35.040 --> 0:34:37.400 and now you have to make them stop bringing the 0:34:37.480 --> 0:34:42.240 drugs into our country. And so President Trump rightly declared 0:34:42.400 --> 0:34:46.080 the cartel's enemies of our country. They are clearly enemies 0:34:46.120 --> 0:34:49.000 of our country. They're killing Americans with this poison intentinal 0:34:49.480 --> 0:34:55.200 and all kinds of other horrific acts. And they're allied 0:34:55.600 --> 0:34:58.399 with people that are also part of a broader terror 0:34:58.520 --> 0:35:03.440 network in a broader terror fund system. So they're legitimate targets. 0:35:03.600 --> 0:35:06.960 There is an eminent threat to Americans, and so they've 0:35:07.040 --> 0:35:09.880 gone through all that. Then when you go to target it, 0:35:10.920 --> 0:35:14.480 they intended to kill the people on the boat and 0:35:14.640 --> 0:35:17.359 sink the boat. Right, They want to kill they want 0:35:17.400 --> 0:35:20.560 to take out everything about that boat. And the idea 0:35:20.600 --> 0:35:23.640 that well you only get one shot at it is crazy. 0:35:24.480 --> 0:35:27.040 Now They've tried all kinds of word parsing to get 0:35:27.080 --> 0:35:29.759 around the fact. The root issue is they don't want 0:35:29.760 --> 0:35:32.160 to take out the cartels. I mean, at the end 0:35:32.160 --> 0:35:35.200 of the day, they've been the great Democrats have been 0:35:35.239 --> 0:35:38.279 the greatest thing ever for the cartels. When Donald Trump 0:35:38.480 --> 0:35:42.839 was president number forty five, the cartels were making money 0:35:42.880 --> 0:35:46.360 trafficking people across the southern border. The New York Times 0:35:46.480 --> 0:35:49.600 estimated about five hundred thousand dollars a year. But with 0:35:49.800 --> 0:35:52.800 two years into the Biden administration, the New York Times 0:35:52.880 --> 0:35:57.279 Hardly a friend of ours says that the cartels were 0:35:57.320 --> 0:36:01.200 making over thirteen billion dollars a year just trafficking the 0:36:01.280 --> 0:36:06.880 people exploiting them, among them tens of thousands of unaccompanied miners, 0:36:07.280 --> 0:36:10.239 many of whom the Trump administration have recovered. So these 0:36:10.400 --> 0:36:14.280 these are horrible Democrats don't want to stop the cartels. 0:36:14.520 --> 0:36:17.920 They've designed policy after policy that helps the cartels. And 0:36:18.040 --> 0:36:20.640 so now they're out there like, well, you can't come 0:36:20.680 --> 0:36:23.640 back and try to kill them a second time. They 0:36:23.719 --> 0:36:26.080 were stranded on a boat that was going to sink 0:36:26.560 --> 0:36:29.799 and you had to go rescue them, Well, no, you don't. 0:36:30.760 --> 0:36:33.799 Now if they were defenseless and floating in the water 0:36:34.040 --> 0:36:37.920 trying to survive and get to shore. There is a 0:36:38.040 --> 0:36:43.759 shipwreck provision in the law of armed conflicts, and that 0:36:44.040 --> 0:36:46.319 did in fact happen. If you recall, there were two 0:36:47.239 --> 0:36:51.760 people that were rescued by our military and our Coastguard. 0:36:51.840 --> 0:36:54.400 They were returned to their country of origin. 0:36:55.080 --> 0:36:55.879 Now I think they. 0:36:55.840 --> 0:36:57.880 Should have been extra died and prosecuted. I mean they 0:36:57.920 --> 0:37:01.520 were in the act of something else. Get Mos a 0:37:01.600 --> 0:37:06.080 great fitting place underutilized these days, and you could have 0:37:06.120 --> 0:37:07.960 taken them there and just made it clear like, no, 0:37:08.280 --> 0:37:11.080 you don't get a free pass for trying to do 0:37:11.200 --> 0:37:13.520 this to our country. But that's the kind of lay 0:37:13.560 --> 0:37:14.920 of the land right now as I see it. 0:37:15.400 --> 0:37:19.880 Well, we have many examples in the past of sinking 0:37:19.960 --> 0:37:24.440 a disabled enemy vessel, even when carrying a wounded personnel, 0:37:24.680 --> 0:37:28.279 at a standard naval practice for generations. I saw this 0:37:28.400 --> 0:37:31.520 story on the History Channel, which I love watching, and 0:37:31.640 --> 0:37:34.800 the commentator that made the remarks during the Battle of Midway, 0:37:35.320 --> 0:37:38.279 one of the Japanese carriers that was blue up was 0:37:38.480 --> 0:37:41.000 burning dead in the water, no longer able to fight 0:37:41.080 --> 0:37:44.160 or launch aircraft, but it was full of injured, dead 0:37:44.239 --> 0:37:47.280 and dying Japanese soldiers. To the tune of several hundred. 0:37:47.680 --> 0:37:49.759 And you know, you know what we did, Congressman. We 0:37:49.960 --> 0:37:52.880 kept throwing torpedoes into the ship until it was at 0:37:52.920 --> 0:37:53.840 the bottom of the ocean. 0:37:54.280 --> 0:37:55.160 And that was lawful. 0:37:55.640 --> 0:37:58.680 And so there were hundreds of wounded Japanese of the 0:37:58.760 --> 0:38:01.920 Imperial Navy we put to the bottom of the Pacific 0:38:01.920 --> 0:38:05.040 because they were on an aircraft carrier likely to sink 0:38:05.080 --> 0:38:09.279 and disabled enemy vessel. Everyone caring when the personnel has 0:38:09.360 --> 0:38:13.120 been standard naval practice for generations and consistent with the 0:38:13.520 --> 0:38:16.480 law of the armed conflict of the sea, not to 0:38:16.640 --> 0:38:19.239 directly kill those men, but to take the ship to 0:38:19.320 --> 0:38:20.240 the bottom of the ocean. 0:38:20.440 --> 0:38:25.000 And what happens happens, you know what I'm saying, Yeah, exactly. 0:38:25.080 --> 0:38:28.759 And look, we've got colleagues, frankly Republicans in intercrafts that 0:38:28.760 --> 0:38:31.320 are out there like, well, you know, you can't just 0:38:31.360 --> 0:38:34.560 give a death penalty to these guys. They're trafficking drugs. 0:38:34.600 --> 0:38:37.680 It's not a capital offense. Look, you don't send in 0:38:37.760 --> 0:38:42.200 the military to read Miranda rights people, right. The military 0:38:42.520 --> 0:38:46.120 action is not you know, police action, right. It is 0:38:46.200 --> 0:38:48.279 not like, oh, well, we're going to send them out 0:38:48.320 --> 0:38:52.000 with you know, tasers and flex cuffs and bring them 0:38:52.040 --> 0:38:57.279 all in for questioning. The military is diplomacy failed. You 0:38:57.320 --> 0:39:00.600 should have negotiated, you should have complied, and we told 0:39:00.640 --> 0:39:03.640 you and you didn't, And now we're going to make 0:39:03.760 --> 0:39:05.920 you stop posing a threat to our country. 0:39:07.280 --> 0:39:08.759 And the stronger and more. 0:39:08.680 --> 0:39:12.120 Focused our military is, the more effective our state department 0:39:12.200 --> 0:39:14.840 can be, the more effective our homeland security department can be, 0:39:15.320 --> 0:39:18.520 the more secure our border can be. And these are 0:39:18.600 --> 0:39:21.480 the objectives, and that's the root of it. People at 0:39:21.520 --> 0:39:24.880 the end of the day don't want the border secure, 0:39:25.080 --> 0:39:28.680 They don't want the black market closed off, and they 0:39:28.760 --> 0:39:32.879 want to military that isn't designed to fight and win 0:39:32.960 --> 0:39:37.600 decisive battles. They want these nebulous continue on forever. I mean, 0:39:37.840 --> 0:39:39.239 these are the same kind of people that sent the 0:39:39.320 --> 0:39:42.200 JAG officers over to say, well, you know, you were 0:39:42.239 --> 0:39:44.880 trying to kill this guy over in Afghanistan before, but 0:39:45.560 --> 0:39:47.960 now you can't really kill him. You know, you could 0:39:48.040 --> 0:39:49.799 kill him over here, but you can't kill him there. 0:39:50.360 --> 0:39:52.960 And yeah, it looks like he's putting an id out there, 0:39:53.000 --> 0:39:54.960 but you got to wait until you take direct fire 0:39:55.120 --> 0:39:58.799 from somebody. These are the stupidest things that they come 0:39:58.920 --> 0:40:01.640 up with. They need to stay the heck away from 0:40:01.680 --> 0:40:05.040 the warriors that are out there doing what needs to 0:40:05.080 --> 0:40:06.240 be done to defend our country. 0:40:06.280 --> 0:40:09.880 And you may have recalled during that disastrous leaving of 0:40:10.239 --> 0:40:14.520 Kabbo Afghanistan, the desertion of our duties ordered by Joe Biden. 0:40:14.960 --> 0:40:18.759 He sent drones over to take out a couple of 0:40:18.840 --> 0:40:22.840 white trucks that had eight children and four women inside 0:40:22.880 --> 0:40:26.000 the trucks. It was the goal was to kill a 0:40:26.040 --> 0:40:28.600 couple of terrorists. They might have killed a couple of terrorists, 0:40:28.719 --> 0:40:30.960 but they killed about eight children and four women in 0:40:31.080 --> 0:40:34.040 the process. And the Democrats did not raise his think 0:40:34.080 --> 0:40:34.719 at all, did they. 0:40:35.920 --> 0:40:38.640 Yeah, they Saint Obama to them, right, I mean, he 0:40:38.680 --> 0:40:40.960 could do no wrong. Everything was great, even when he 0:40:41.040 --> 0:40:44.719 killed an American who was like sixteen. And I'm not complaining. 0:40:44.800 --> 0:40:47.880 I think, you know, this guy had made himself an 0:40:47.960 --> 0:40:51.640 enemy of our country. You know, there were a lot 0:40:51.719 --> 0:40:55.520 of smarter ways to wage the war on Terror, and 0:40:55.680 --> 0:40:58.480 there's been very little accountability for those people that waged it. 0:40:58.920 --> 0:41:02.520 But it's been disappointing watch veterans, you know, particularly some 0:41:02.600 --> 0:41:05.359 of these guys who who were part of the reason 0:41:05.440 --> 0:41:09.759 we were not succeeding in the war they're anxious to 0:41:09.800 --> 0:41:13.640 hold everybody in the lower ranks accountable all day, but 0:41:13.719 --> 0:41:16.839 there's never any accountability for the generals. And now they're 0:41:16.840 --> 0:41:19.719 out there commentating from the side, trying to tear down 0:41:19.800 --> 0:41:24.960 peak headseth and note that all it appears to be 0:41:25.200 --> 0:41:30.360 well coordinated. Right So, right after the Seditious six go 0:41:30.440 --> 0:41:34.920 out and release their video about this, the whole media 0:41:35.000 --> 0:41:37.080 thing comes in. So you know, there wasn't like some 0:41:37.280 --> 0:41:41.040 naive set of coincidences. I do believe their coincidences, that 0:41:41.239 --> 0:41:44.960 video was not one of them. This is a coordinated operation, 0:41:45.560 --> 0:41:48.640 and it's designed to sow discord and dissent within our militaries, 0:41:48.680 --> 0:41:51.320 designed to undermine the current chain of command and weaken 0:41:51.400 --> 0:41:56.040 our country. It's horrendous that this is even going on, 0:41:56.800 --> 0:41:58.839 and it's even more horrendous to me that it's being 0:41:58.960 --> 0:42:00.680 tolerated and talked about out seriously. 0:42:01.200 --> 0:42:01.359 Well. 0:42:01.640 --> 0:42:04.719 On another issue, sometime in a week or so, the 0:42:04.880 --> 0:42:07.239 Senate is going to take up they agree to take 0:42:07.320 --> 0:42:09.680 up and have a vote on the extension of Obamacare. 0:42:10.320 --> 0:42:14.600 Can you briefly describe what was promised by Obamacare in 0:42:14.640 --> 0:42:17.560 the beginning, how it turned out, and why I would 0:42:17.600 --> 0:42:20.680 anticipate you think a wooden stake needs to go into 0:42:20.719 --> 0:42:21.680 the heart of Obamacare. 0:42:23.400 --> 0:42:27.000 Yeah, you know, of course, it's called the Affordable Care Act, 0:42:27.120 --> 0:42:29.759 and the Obama branded it, and the whole promise was 0:42:29.840 --> 0:42:31.600 that it would make health care more affordable. 0:42:32.080 --> 0:42:32.200 Right. 0:42:32.520 --> 0:42:35.279 It obviously hasn't succeeded in that. No, I won't say 0:42:35.320 --> 0:42:38.160 there were nothing out of it that came to be effective. 0:42:38.200 --> 0:42:40.120 I mean, now you can keep your kids on your 0:42:40.200 --> 0:42:43.680 plan until they're twenty six. If you get like a 0:42:43.760 --> 0:42:47.120 family plan, you've got a way to cover pre existing 0:42:47.200 --> 0:42:51.520 conditions and things like that where people found themselves kind 0:42:51.560 --> 0:42:52.320 of locked out. 0:42:52.200 --> 0:42:53.400 Of access to healthcare. 0:42:53.560 --> 0:42:57.719 So that those are things that are broadly bipartisan and supported. 0:42:57.840 --> 0:43:00.719 And even when Republicans were trying to perform this back 0:43:00.760 --> 0:43:04.000 in twenty seventeen, there were things that were preserved. But 0:43:04.160 --> 0:43:09.360 what fundamentally they do is there of the As Obamacare 0:43:09.440 --> 0:43:12.600 continued to fail in twenty one, they decided, you know, 0:43:12.719 --> 0:43:15.360 we need more subsidies to go to bail out the 0:43:15.680 --> 0:43:18.840 Obamacare and cover for the fact that it's failing. And 0:43:18.920 --> 0:43:21.120 they came up with has to be like the dumbest idea, 0:43:21.239 --> 0:43:24.799 which is, let's give the subsidies direct to the health 0:43:24.840 --> 0:43:27.800 insurance companies. Now, you know, if you would give it 0:43:27.880 --> 0:43:30.640 to the doctors or hospitals, I mean, that might make sense. 0:43:31.000 --> 0:43:32.640 If you give it to the people who owe the. 0:43:32.680 --> 0:43:36.719 Hospital and doctor bills, that would make sense. But why 0:43:36.760 --> 0:43:38.759 would you give it to a middleman, particularly one that 0:43:40.160 --> 0:43:42.759 performance hasn't been good. I mean, in spite of all 0:43:42.800 --> 0:43:45.560 the subsidies, they didn't keep health care affordable. Now, their 0:43:45.600 --> 0:43:48.920 profit margins have been phenomenal, their share prices have done great. 0:43:49.239 --> 0:43:51.800 In one of the top performing ETFs out there is 0:43:51.840 --> 0:43:55.400 a healthcare ETF has just been predictable as can be, 0:43:56.280 --> 0:44:00.720 soaring since Obamacare started pouring cash into the health insurance companies. 0:44:00.760 --> 0:44:03.080 But people are still getting double digit increases. They're still 0:44:03.120 --> 0:44:06.840 being out of pocket max rays, still being denied claims, 0:44:07.000 --> 0:44:09.640 still being told, oh, that was out of network, all 0:44:09.719 --> 0:44:13.200 kinds of terrible service. People can't stand the health insurance company, 0:44:13.760 --> 0:44:16.080 even though they might say, you know, I had great 0:44:16.160 --> 0:44:19.120 doctors and nurses, and the technology is great and everything else. 0:44:19.640 --> 0:44:22.719 The medical building process has been a disaster, and so 0:44:22.840 --> 0:44:25.839 instead of fixing that, Democrats want to continue to hide 0:44:25.880 --> 0:44:29.080 the failure of Obamacare and pretend that it's great with 0:44:29.239 --> 0:44:32.040 more subsidies. And so that's the challenge right here. And 0:44:32.120 --> 0:44:34.160 I think, you know, kudos to President Trump because he's 0:44:34.160 --> 0:44:37.520 talked about you know, health freedom accounts where the money would. 0:44:37.320 --> 0:44:38.799 Go directly to individuals. 0:44:38.880 --> 0:44:41.359 Yes, and you know, if you're going to subsidize something, 0:44:41.400 --> 0:44:43.279 that would be way smarter way to do it, and 0:44:43.360 --> 0:44:47.480 it would ultimately help reorient healthcare as the user is 0:44:47.560 --> 0:44:50.480 the person that pays for it, and then it could 0:44:50.480 --> 0:44:53.759 actually have function more like a market so that it 0:44:53.760 --> 0:44:58.560 would actually hold prices down and in at least increase service. 0:44:59.239 --> 0:45:01.400 If if you're going to have it out there, I mean, 0:45:01.960 --> 0:45:04.320 you know, they don't respond to the consumer in the 0:45:04.400 --> 0:45:04.960 current model. 0:45:05.200 --> 0:45:08.400 And Congressman, I think Republicans do a bad job at 0:45:08.440 --> 0:45:11.840 pr And in this case, the average person thinks, somehow 0:45:12.000 --> 0:45:16.000 Republicans want to take away healthcare, when in reality, Republicans 0:45:16.080 --> 0:45:19.680 want quality healthcare centered around the patient, and the Democrats 0:45:19.840 --> 0:45:22.400 want to give billions of dollars to the insurance companies 0:45:22.520 --> 0:45:25.759 who then screw the patients and get campaign donations back. 0:45:26.040 --> 0:45:29.040 If you would ask the average person living in this 0:45:29.160 --> 0:45:33.040 country who wants to provide healthcare at little expense, the 0:45:33.080 --> 0:45:36.040 answer would probably be the Democratic Party. But The average 0:45:36.080 --> 0:45:40.080 person doesn't understand that Obamacare gives subsidies directly to insurance 0:45:40.160 --> 0:45:43.640 companies hoping they hold down costs. They're not incentivized to 0:45:43.719 --> 0:45:46.800 do so, and they don't. Plus, some of the deductibilities 0:45:46.840 --> 0:45:49.600 are five to ten thousand dollars for each person you're 0:45:49.640 --> 0:45:52.160 out of network. The thing is collapsed and it's failed. 0:45:52.360 --> 0:45:56.480 Why should you subsidize a failure? And Obamacare is a failure, 0:45:56.840 --> 0:45:59.440 And so at some point the House may have to 0:45:59.520 --> 0:46:01.560 vote on this thing. How would you vote in a 0:46:01.640 --> 0:46:02.120 week or two? 0:46:04.200 --> 0:46:07.920 Well, look, I'm against just continuing the status quo of 0:46:08.080 --> 0:46:10.160 more subsidies for a failed plan. 0:46:10.239 --> 0:46:11.720 I mean, this is a crazy idea. 0:46:12.760 --> 0:46:16.000 And look, I will say Democrats, they've been sort of 0:46:16.880 --> 0:46:19.200 dancing to the same sheet music for a long time. 0:46:19.280 --> 0:46:22.440 They love Obamacare, and they wanted it as a gateway 0:46:22.520 --> 0:46:26.600 drug to get single payer, you know, socialist healthcare where 0:46:26.719 --> 0:46:29.120 the government runs everything. I mean, some of them want 0:46:29.600 --> 0:46:32.319 a true national system where the doctors and hospitals are 0:46:32.320 --> 0:46:32.839 operated by. 0:46:32.800 --> 0:46:34.920 The government too. That's really vacare for all. 0:46:36.239 --> 0:46:37.960 And while the VA has moved a lot in the 0:46:38.040 --> 0:46:40.600 right direction since Trump's first term, and a lot of 0:46:40.640 --> 0:46:43.640 good reform packages, I mean, you don't have the same 0:46:43.800 --> 0:46:48.000 kinds of problems in a lot of our private sector 0:46:48.080 --> 0:46:52.680 hospitals that you've had in VA with you know, veteran care. 0:46:53.239 --> 0:46:56.000 So I don't think that's something should be replicated for everybody. 0:46:56.400 --> 0:46:59.279 What we should do is continue to do the part 0:46:59.360 --> 0:47:02.360 that works. Most Americans get their insurance to their employer. 0:47:02.840 --> 0:47:06.520 They're pretty happy with it. And the trouble is is 0:47:06.640 --> 0:47:09.759 that it works fine if you get a job at 0:47:09.800 --> 0:47:12.319 Procter and Gamble or something, a huge employer, and they 0:47:13.120 --> 0:47:15.440 have great plans and everything else like that, they're a 0:47:15.480 --> 0:47:18.800 great company. But if you look at a small business 0:47:19.360 --> 0:47:22.520 you get twenty employees, one person gets cancer, they want 0:47:22.560 --> 0:47:26.400 to spread that risk over twenty people. Well, that doesn't 0:47:27.440 --> 0:47:30.080 share the risk pool big enough. So part of the 0:47:30.200 --> 0:47:32.919 reforms that Republicans had was to put the high cost 0:47:33.040 --> 0:47:36.200 to insured a high risk pool. That would take that 0:47:36.360 --> 0:47:39.560 out of the insurance market, so the Medicaid dollars would 0:47:39.560 --> 0:47:43.239 go to that. Then regular health insurance would have less. 0:47:43.560 --> 0:47:46.640 Some of the five or ten most expensive things wouldn't 0:47:46.640 --> 0:47:48.719 even have to be covered by anybody, they'd be so 0:47:48.960 --> 0:47:51.920 that would be the subsidy and it would go to 0:47:52.040 --> 0:47:54.600 treat these things that are just super expensive to treat 0:47:55.160 --> 0:47:58.160 and normal health care, normal access to health care for 0:47:58.320 --> 0:48:01.640 your common conditions. People you know, have a baby and 0:48:02.000 --> 0:48:04.279 you know, want to want to do maternity and all 0:48:04.360 --> 0:48:07.560 this stuff. Those kinds of things would would be lower 0:48:07.680 --> 0:48:11.439 because you're not subsidizing the super high expensive stuff they're 0:48:11.440 --> 0:48:15.279 because you're doing cancer treatments with the same twenty employees, right, 0:48:15.400 --> 0:48:19.320 And so changing that risk model is are things that 0:48:19.560 --> 0:48:22.200 aren't sexy, they aren't flashy, they don't mark it well, 0:48:23.120 --> 0:48:26.319 but they really do lower costs. And so those are 0:48:26.400 --> 0:48:27.759 the kinds of things we have to do. And I 0:48:27.800 --> 0:48:30.000 think you know President Trump's onto something is if you 0:48:30.000 --> 0:48:31.800 do want to extend the subsidies, let's make sure we 0:48:31.880 --> 0:48:34.040 send them money to the people and let them buy 0:48:34.120 --> 0:48:34.839 the plan they want. 0:48:34.920 --> 0:48:35.520 That's the other thing. 0:48:35.600 --> 0:48:39.680 Obamacare mandated that everybody has to have a standard package 0:48:39.760 --> 0:48:43.719 of insurance, so you couldn't customize it anymore. And you know, 0:48:43.880 --> 0:48:47.600 you look at some of the advertisers on TV. They've 0:48:48.640 --> 0:48:51.200 made a mint talking about, well, customize it by the 0:48:51.280 --> 0:48:54.120 things you want from your car, your home or everything else. 0:48:54.400 --> 0:48:56.120 But when it comes to healthcare, you can't do that. 0:48:56.239 --> 0:48:57.360 You got to buy the whole package. 0:48:57.760 --> 0:49:01.480 I don't need transgender services care, I don't need all 0:49:01.600 --> 0:49:03.440 kind of stuff, and I buy want to have the 0:49:03.520 --> 0:49:06.600 insurance that fits my needs at this particular point. And 0:49:07.400 --> 0:49:10.560 one size does fit all, and that spreads the premiums 0:49:10.600 --> 0:49:13.120 over a large group of people that none of whom 0:49:13.520 --> 0:49:15.000 need the care for some of the things that have 0:49:15.080 --> 0:49:17.560 been ordered. Well, Congressman Warren Davids and we got to go. 0:49:17.719 --> 0:49:20.920 The affordability crisis is here, and it is caused by 0:49:20.960 --> 0:49:24.200 the policies of the Democrat Party, and instead of taking 0:49:24.239 --> 0:49:27.440 responsibility for it, they want to make things more unaffordable, 0:49:27.760 --> 0:49:31.960 such as rents, utility expenses, and healthcare costs. And I 0:49:32.120 --> 0:49:34.840 hope our conversation informed the American people as to what 0:49:34.960 --> 0:49:37.160 the plan is. And the Democrats want to keep the 0:49:37.239 --> 0:49:41.120 campaign donations coming from the insurance companies and Donald Trump 0:49:41.160 --> 0:49:44.040 and you want to give the subsidies directly to the 0:49:44.200 --> 0:49:48.560 insured person and let that person decide what they specifically need. 0:49:48.920 --> 0:49:52.560 Then costs go down. And Warren Davidson, once again, thanks 0:49:52.600 --> 0:49:55.240 for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show, and Merry Christmas 0:49:55.280 --> 0:49:58.040 and a happy near to you. Warren Davidson.

Happy to you and to all your listeners. 0:50:03.560 --> 0:50:05.520 God bless you all, God bless America. 0:50:05.600 --> 0:50:07.600 Thank you very much.

There's no, 1:08:01.320 --> 1:08:03.720 there's no lesser offense below an M four other than 1:08:03.760 --> 1:08:07.280 an MM. But nonetheless, Uh, have they offered a deal 1:08:07.320 --> 1:08:09.240 to you of any type to not sue the city 1:08:09.280 --> 1:08:11.320 if you get something in exchange. 1:08:13.000 --> 1:08:15.560 Leave not engaged in any lee negotiations with the city 1:08:15.600 --> 1:08:18.040 and reviews to do so. PEOP will try this case 1:08:18.120 --> 1:08:21.519 to a jury. Uh, you know, and we plan on 1:08:21.640 --> 1:08:24.000 calling the detectives involved in this case. The death, therey, 1:08:24.040 --> 1:08:24.799 the games is police. 1:08:25.960 --> 1:08:28.880 You know many times, as you know, Doug Brannon, it 1:08:29.000 --> 1:08:31.719 is not the defense to call the police to support 1:08:31.800 --> 1:08:34.400 their version of the facts normally. 1:08:34.520 --> 1:08:35.280 Is the opposite? 1:08:35.400 --> 1:08:38.120 Is it true that you have so painted uh since 1:08:38.200 --> 1:08:41.400 night police officers to testify on behalf of your client. 1:08:42.880 --> 1:08:46.120 Well, these are these are turistical detectives wanting to do 1:08:46.320 --> 1:08:49.080 the right thing and are not pulling it much for 1:08:49.160 --> 1:08:51.040 the city. I think that they're going to playing your 1:08:51.200 --> 1:08:53.400 trial and I think in that for it is going 1:08:53.439 --> 1:08:58.320 to exonerate Alex of these focus charges, uh, disorderly contract. 1:08:58.560 --> 1:09:02.280 Somewhat unusual, so Defense Council as issues of penis for 1:09:02.360 --> 1:09:07.280 the detectives who investigated the case of Alex Stravinsky. And 1:09:07.479 --> 1:09:10.160 is it true that the detectives who have spent hours, 1:09:10.920 --> 1:09:15.120 according to the FOP hundreds of hours investigating this assault 1:09:15.320 --> 1:09:18.479 on July twenty sixth that during the music festival that 1:09:18.640 --> 1:09:23.040 these detectives said, do not file criminal charges against Alex Chevinsky? 1:09:23.160 --> 1:09:23.639 Is that true? 1:09:25.000 --> 1:09:26.760 You know, East de Techers has put a lot of 1:09:26.840 --> 1:09:28.400 work into this case. I think that they done some 1:09:28.600 --> 1:09:32.160 very good work. They put it were able to identify 1:09:32.920 --> 1:09:35.719 almost all of these suspects the committees heet us acts. 1:09:36.280 --> 1:09:39.120 And you know, I don't believe that they think that 1:09:39.360 --> 1:09:42.920 el s. Robsky did anything honk here and neither do I. 1:09:43.120 --> 1:09:44.280 That's why we're going to trot. 1:09:44.960 --> 1:09:48.080 And you also made reference to a CI from the FBI. 1:09:48.280 --> 1:09:51.439 Can you put some more bones on this confidential informant? 1:09:53.120 --> 1:09:55.920 Well, it would appear from the information that I've been 1:09:55.960 --> 1:09:59.479 provided that there was a confidential afortman investigating the same 1:09:59.600 --> 1:10:05.040 crew for probably related affectsus, the same crew that attacked 1:10:05.600 --> 1:10:08.240 Alex and all his friends that evening. I mean, it's 1:10:08.280 --> 1:10:13.760 clear this is an almost criminal gain activity that is 1:10:13.840 --> 1:10:14.920 what went down that day? 1:10:16.560 --> 1:10:19.160 Did they disclose this to you before before Friday? 1:10:20.920 --> 1:10:20.960 No? 1:10:21.320 --> 1:10:24.960 The FBI confidential informal information was not disclosed until late 1:10:25.000 --> 1:10:25.880 on Friday as well. 1:10:26.520 --> 1:10:28.439 Can you can you come up with a reason for that? 1:10:30.840 --> 1:10:30.880 No. 1:10:31.160 --> 1:10:34.040 I can't speak for why the city did not produce 1:10:34.080 --> 1:10:37.600 this information earlier or to they plan on bringing the 1:10:37.680 --> 1:10:40.479 trial earlier. All I can do is the actors lobster 1:10:40.520 --> 1:10:41.520 their late disposures. 1:10:42.520 --> 1:10:44.639 A couple more quick questions. I know you're busy. 1:10:44.920 --> 1:10:48.760 Is it true that the investigating detectives and the Chief 1:10:48.800 --> 1:10:53.360 of Police Fiji uh and others in the police chance 1:10:53.400 --> 1:10:56.920 and command would not file these criminal charges? And that 1:10:57.640 --> 1:11:02.720 Captain now acting Chief Adam Henny is the one who 1:11:03.000 --> 1:11:07.439 was told to do so by Emily smart Warner, who's 1:11:07.479 --> 1:11:09.040 the city solicitor. 1:11:10.479 --> 1:11:12.639 Well, that's the answer to a question that I plan 1:11:12.760 --> 1:11:14.720 on getting it prial on January. 1:11:14.280 --> 1:11:18.520 Twelve, Bill, wouldn't it be someone unusual if the detectives 1:11:18.600 --> 1:11:22.280 investigating a crime and the chief of police would not 1:11:22.439 --> 1:11:27.120 file criminal charges, but over their head, the political powers 1:11:27.160 --> 1:11:30.920 at City Hall ordered criminal charges against the innocent person. 1:11:31.360 --> 1:11:33.600 According to one of the news conferences, because of the 1:11:33.680 --> 1:11:38.160 color of his skin. Would that be someone unusual, it would. 1:11:37.920 --> 1:11:41.240 Be highway and for a politician to get involved in 1:11:41.520 --> 1:11:45.920 ordering who should and shouldn't be charged from an incident. Obviously, 1:11:46.400 --> 1:11:49.640 the black community at Cincinnati was demanding this. There were 1:11:49.680 --> 1:11:52.439 some CIDY officials that are supported by those people. This 1:11:52.560 --> 1:11:55.240 seemed to have possibly acted in this case. But I'm 1:11:55.280 --> 1:11:59.400 going to get answers to under oath to these same 1:11:59.520 --> 1:12:02.280 questions trial on January twelve, when they put these people 1:12:02.320 --> 1:12:02.800 on the witness. 1:12:02.800 --> 1:12:05.400 See, you had told me earlier on the air that 1:12:05.560 --> 1:12:10.000 the Federal Authorities Civil Rights Division of the Department of 1:12:10.200 --> 1:12:14.280 Justice is looking at looking at this case as racial 1:12:14.320 --> 1:12:18.320 discrimination against Alex Schravinsky, your client. Is that still is 1:12:18.360 --> 1:12:22.799 that investigation ongoing to the best of your knowledge, Yeah. 1:12:22.720 --> 1:12:25.439 And resst of my knowledge, the FBI are still involved 1:12:25.439 --> 1:12:27.919 in the case, and that that investigation is still ongoing. 1:12:28.880 --> 1:12:31.320 But so far we're not aware of any filings by 1:12:31.400 --> 1:12:32.280 the Better Old. 1:12:33.000 --> 1:12:35.760 Order, and that would be against the civil leaders of 1:12:35.800 --> 1:12:36.760 the city of Cincinnati. 1:12:36.840 --> 1:12:37.160 Correct. 1:12:38.840 --> 1:12:41.920 I'm not sure exactly what they're investigating, but they are 1:12:42.000 --> 1:12:43.839 still involved in this case to my knowledgy. 1:12:44.160 --> 1:12:48.200 And lastly about your civil rights lawsuit as far as 1:12:48.720 --> 1:12:51.519 charging someone based upon the color of their skin and 1:12:51.720 --> 1:12:54.920 using under A nineteen eighty forty two USC. 1:12:55.120 --> 1:12:57.880 Nineteen eighty three civil rights violations. 1:12:57.960 --> 1:12:59.560 And that's a civil matter in which you're going to 1:12:59.560 --> 1:13:01.880 seek money damages from the City of Cincinnati. 1:13:02.160 --> 1:13:06.000 When will that lawsuit be filed. Well, we're going to 1:13:06.040 --> 1:13:09.640 try the case against Alex Stravinsky. First exonerate him, and 1:13:09.760 --> 1:13:12.320 then we will based upon some of the testimony that 1:13:12.600 --> 1:13:15.519 is derived from that trial maet decisions about whether or 1:13:15.560 --> 1:13:18.880 not we are pursuing civil cases against certain officials within 1:13:18.920 --> 1:13:19.839 the city of incidact. 1:13:20.040 --> 1:13:23.760 They're handing out eight point two million dollars to criminal protesters. 1:13:24.000 --> 1:13:26.600 I can only imagine what this case is worth. And 1:13:26.680 --> 1:13:29.040 I'm still willing to make a prediction, Doug Brannon that 1:13:29.160 --> 1:13:32.519 somehow the city will not want their command officers under 1:13:32.560 --> 1:13:36.799 oath talking about conversations between them and the mayor, between 1:13:36.880 --> 1:13:40.320 them and the city manager, between them and Emily smart Warner. 1:13:40.360 --> 1:13:42.519 I'm willing to predict they don't want any of this public. 1:13:42.640 --> 1:13:46.439 Would you agree, Well, so far they seem to be 1:13:46.560 --> 1:13:48.720 willing to go to trial on it, So let's play 1:13:48.760 --> 1:13:50.280 along and let's see what they'd have to say. 1:13:51.120 --> 1:13:54.479 Doug Brandon, the trial date next is what January the twelfth. 1:13:55.760 --> 1:13:57.960 January twelve, we will be back in court on Alex's 1:13:58.040 --> 1:13:59.960 case and we do expect a jury trial to move forward. 1:14:00.840 --> 1:14:03.280 Well, God bless you and God bless America. Doug, thank 1:14:03.280 --> 1:14:06.280 you very much. Thanks though you take care of God 1:14:06.320 --> 1:14:08.880 bless you. Let's continue the more. Let's continue with more. 1:14:09.640 --> 1:14:14.680 That this arose because after a thorough, complete investigation by 1:14:14.760 --> 1:14:18.120 a good police agency, they recommended that no charges be 1:14:18.240 --> 1:14:23.200 fouled against Alex Schravinsky. And then the civil authorities in 1:14:23.320 --> 1:14:25.960 charge of the city, who is the mayor, the city 1:14:26.080 --> 1:14:33.120 manager Emily Smartwarner and Vice Mayor Michelle lemon Kearney, demanded 1:14:33.240 --> 1:14:36.000 that a white person be charged with a crime because 1:14:36.040 --> 1:14:39.160 the black community demanded it, and it happened. So the 1:14:39.360 --> 1:14:42.880 power of the criminal justice system was turned against a 1:14:43.000 --> 1:14:47.240 person because of the color of their skin. That's why 1:14:47.320 --> 1:14:50.240 the Department of Justice is looking into charges against the 1:14:50.320 --> 1:14:53.640 civil authorities that run the city of Cincinnati. Later on 1:14:53.760 --> 1:14:58.439 would be the money, damages and more. How ridiculous. Bill Cunningham, 1:14:58.479 --> 1:15:01.680 News Radio seven hundred. I know it's been a few 1:15:01.720 --> 1:15:04.280 months since the end of July July twenty sixth, when 1:15:04.320 --> 1:15:07.559 the beatdown took place on Elm Street during the music festival, 1:15:08.320 --> 1:15:10.800 and a lot of the knowledge that we have five 1:15:10.880 --> 1:15:13.120 six months later have been lost. You go back in 1:15:13.200 --> 1:15:15.679 time just a little bit. This was about three o'clock 1:15:15.720 --> 1:15:19.040 in the morning. There were numerous videos of every description 1:15:19.439 --> 1:15:22.479 that were available then and have been reviewed constantly by 1:15:22.520 --> 1:15:25.400 the police to say, okay, what happened. Unlike many crimes 1:15:25.439 --> 1:15:29.000 that are committed, seldom committed on video. And in fact, 1:15:29.040 --> 1:15:31.599 I would say that the beatdown of Holly and Alex 1:15:31.640 --> 1:15:34.720 Stravinsky and others only occurred the fallout because it was 1:15:34.760 --> 1:15:38.200 on video. These things probably happen on a regular basis, 1:15:39.000 --> 1:15:42.760 but unless it's recorded, unless it's on video, gets to television, 1:15:42.800 --> 1:15:46.880 gets to radio, get to the print. Inquire that it's 1:15:46.960 --> 1:15:49.120 like a tree falling in the forest, nobody hears it. 1:15:49.200 --> 1:15:52.519 So it didn't occur because it's videoed and went national 1:15:53.160 --> 1:15:55.439 and I made sure with Bill Hammer and Sean Hannity 1:15:55.640 --> 1:15:59.800 and went national that okay, now that's getting some scrutiny. 1:15:59.400 --> 1:16:00.439 And the city like it. 1:16:01.600 --> 1:16:05.479 So what happened is that the police had all the 1:16:05.600 --> 1:16:09.160 videos early on, according to the FOP, and the two 1:16:09.280 --> 1:16:12.519 detectives involved in the case spent hundreds of hours over 1:16:12.800 --> 1:16:16.000 a several week period reviewing all the videos because they 1:16:16.120 --> 1:16:19.599 were under pressure to charge quote, white people with crime. 1:16:20.120 --> 1:16:23.519 It was quote the black community wanted it. I think 1:16:23.600 --> 1:16:26.840 most black folks want justice and don't want a racial outcome, 1:16:26.880 --> 1:16:31.240 but I regress. And so when the criminal charges were 1:16:31.280 --> 1:16:34.599 filed against the six or seven main perpetrators who treated 1:16:35.479 --> 1:16:39.160 human beings heads like there were soccer balls, there was 1:16:39.200 --> 1:16:42.320 an outcry, according to some of the politicians in town, 1:16:42.720 --> 1:16:45.880 that the black community demanded that the person who instigated 1:16:45.960 --> 1:16:49.639 it or started it, not being according to according to them, 1:16:50.400 --> 1:16:54.640 Alex Shrevinsky also be charged. So the serious charges were 1:16:54.680 --> 1:16:57.479 filed against six or seven individuals, and a big news 1:16:57.560 --> 1:17:01.080 conference was held and with Scottie Johnson and lemon Kearney 1:17:01.479 --> 1:17:04.120 and the civil rights crowd all showed up to demand 1:17:04.160 --> 1:17:06.280 that a white person be charged, the white person that 1:17:06.360 --> 1:17:07.040 started at all. 1:17:07.760 --> 1:17:08.759 But there was a problem. 1:17:09.479 --> 1:17:12.800 The detectives in the case, to whom will testify on 1:17:12.920 --> 1:17:17.040 behalf of the defendant that they had videotape before the 1:17:17.160 --> 1:17:22.920 so called slap that indicated that the major perpetrators had 1:17:22.960 --> 1:17:28.080 started the process before Alex slapped anybody. So there was proof, 1:17:28.760 --> 1:17:31.839 video proofed that's been playing on five, nine, twelve, and nineteen, 1:17:32.160 --> 1:17:34.880 in which you can look at in which the so 1:17:35.080 --> 1:17:39.160 called major criminal defendants beat on Alex Ravinsky, and that 1:17:39.320 --> 1:17:42.360 his so called slap about ten seconds later was trying 1:17:42.400 --> 1:17:45.760 to get the main perpetrators off him. So the case 1:17:45.800 --> 1:17:49.560 fell apart. But however, having walked down the road of 1:17:49.680 --> 1:17:55.599 racial justice, the lemon Kearneys and the Scottie Johnson's Mika 1:17:55.680 --> 1:17:59.519 Owens could not unring the bell. They continue to maintain, 1:18:00.120 --> 1:18:03.120 quote a white person should be charged. So the order 1:18:03.200 --> 1:18:06.840 came down from on high. Okay, charge Alex Stravinsky with 1:18:06.960 --> 1:18:09.800 this orderly conduct, making an M four which is thirty 1:18:09.880 --> 1:18:11.880 days in jail, two hundred and fifty dollars fine. He 1:18:12.080 --> 1:18:13.800 was the guy had the crap beat at him. He 1:18:13.920 --> 1:18:16.760 was a victim, not a perpetrator. So the two detectives 1:18:16.840 --> 1:18:21.760 got the word charge Alex Stravinsky with a DC. They said, 1:18:21.880 --> 1:18:24.400 no way, Jose, I'm not putting my name on an 1:18:24.400 --> 1:18:27.360 affidavit touring under oath that guy committed a crime when 1:18:27.400 --> 1:18:29.560 I know he didn't commit a crime. So now the 1:18:29.640 --> 1:18:33.960 city had a problem the elections coming up. Racial justice 1:18:34.080 --> 1:18:39.040 must be served, according to Alex. According to Scotti Johnson 1:18:39.080 --> 1:18:41.759 A Lemon Kearney, a white person had to be charged, 1:18:41.760 --> 1:18:45.120 but the black community wanted a white person charged, and 1:18:45.280 --> 1:18:48.960 so much like in the Saturday Night massacre, the investigators, 1:18:49.080 --> 1:18:51.479 the cops, the detectives wouldn't do it. The chief of 1:18:51.560 --> 1:18:53.960 police wouldn't do it. So it went up to the 1:18:54.000 --> 1:18:58.040 Mayor's office to f TB. Pirival who has had his 1:18:58.160 --> 1:19:01.439 cars repossessed, and then down to share along. Then it 1:19:01.520 --> 1:19:04.720 came down to Emily smart Warner, who's the solicitor of 1:19:04.840 --> 1:19:08.439 the city, ordering that these charges be filed. One cop 1:19:08.479 --> 1:19:12.840 stepped up. That was Captain Adam Henny, who's now the 1:19:12.880 --> 1:19:17.400 acting chief, who did not investigate the case, and he said, 1:19:17.439 --> 1:19:20.400 I'll follow the charge to protect my guys. He did 1:19:20.479 --> 1:19:23.320 not want the guys under him to be disciplined in 1:19:23.400 --> 1:19:27.559 some way or have their careers affected by demanding they 1:19:28.000 --> 1:19:32.439 commit perjury by filing an affidavit about factual conditions in 1:19:32.479 --> 1:19:35.479 their mind that did not exist. So Captain Adam Henny 1:19:36.160 --> 1:19:39.280 did what the mayor and the city manager, the civil 1:19:39.320 --> 1:19:42.479 authorities demanded to occur, which is charging a white person 1:19:42.560 --> 1:19:46.439 with a crime. Set for trial today, December the eighth, 1:19:46.760 --> 1:19:49.160 the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, by the way, and 1:19:49.280 --> 1:19:52.040 now it's been continued January twelfth. This case been penning 1:19:52.080 --> 1:19:55.360 for months in the city Solicitor's office, it's in the 1:19:55.439 --> 1:19:59.240 county prosecutor, mister Manner. City solicitor has to provide to 1:19:59.320 --> 1:20:01.880 the defendant all the witnesses to be used at trial 1:20:02.520 --> 1:20:05.120 in a good fashion, so that there's enough research done 1:20:05.120 --> 1:20:08.000 on the witnesses, so the defense is prepared to cross examined. 1:20:08.520 --> 1:20:11.560 But the City Prosecutor's office waited after the close of 1:20:11.600 --> 1:20:16.240 business on Friday to disclose that there may be a CI, 1:20:16.600 --> 1:20:22.439 a confidential informant working the city who can testify as 1:20:22.479 --> 1:20:24.599 to what he saw. But the videotape says it all, 1:20:24.640 --> 1:20:28.160 doesn't it. Plus that there's another witness who is a 1:20:28.280 --> 1:20:30.880 lengthy criminal record that the city wanted to use, and 1:20:30.920 --> 1:20:34.000 they didn't disclose it till close a business on Friday, 1:20:34.280 --> 1:20:36.280 all of which is wrong. You've got to give someone 1:20:36.560 --> 1:20:39.680 defense council generally thirty days notice who you want to 1:20:39.760 --> 1:20:42.280 use a trial, and it didn't happen. So now the 1:20:42.360 --> 1:20:45.040 city's between a rock and a hard place, because the 1:20:45.120 --> 1:20:48.680 city wants to proceed against Stravinsky, but the department of 1:20:48.880 --> 1:20:52.439 Justice Civil Rights Division doesn't like the idea of the 1:20:52.520 --> 1:20:55.599 mayor and the city solicitor of a major American city 1:20:55.920 --> 1:20:58.200 demanding that a person be charged with a crime because 1:20:58.240 --> 1:21:02.880 of their race. Democrats wanted to fuel racial strife to 1:21:02.920 --> 1:21:05.920 get votes with the election coming up. And the Democrats 1:21:05.960 --> 1:21:08.559 are generally at the roots of this nation's racial divide. 1:21:08.800 --> 1:21:11.640 And it's long been not the case. And in Alabama 1:21:11.680 --> 1:21:14.000 in the fifties and sixties, the Democrats demand that the 1:21:14.040 --> 1:21:16.639 black people be charged. Now the Democrats in the cities 1:21:16.680 --> 1:21:19.439 now demand that the white person be charged irrespective of 1:21:19.479 --> 1:21:19.920 the facts. 1:21:20.520 --> 1:21:24.160 Can you smell what I'm cooking? Bill Cunningham, this radio 1:21:24.240 --> 1:21:27.000 seven hundred w kill them? You know they're going to 1:21:27.040 --> 1:21:37.080 be like dead. Okay, hello, quiets, I'm broadcasting. 1:21:40.280 --> 1:21:40.439 Right. 1:21:40.439 --> 1:21:42.320 I hate to bring up some of these things. Uh 1:21:42.960 --> 1:21:45.439 segment brought it up early. That's a big question. You 1:21:45.880 --> 1:21:47.720 give it to me. There's a lot going on a 1:21:48.400 --> 1:21:51.519 weekend for the rockster. Saint X goes down hard. 1:21:51.880 --> 1:21:56.400 They played hard, they were close, but you know, got 1:21:56.439 --> 1:21:58.639 behind early and then you got your you're the bad 1:21:58.720 --> 1:21:59.200 call bottle. 1:21:59.200 --> 1:21:59.960 I want to bring it up. 1:22:01.479 --> 1:22:04.160 It's third and long and the guy just throws Levi 1:22:04.360 --> 1:22:07.200 Davis throws up a pass that Kingdom come and the 1:22:07.320 --> 1:22:10.479 guy catches it, but his one foot, like three quarters 1:22:10.560 --> 1:22:10.720 of his. 1:22:10.800 --> 1:22:12.880 Foot was out of bounce. How do you miss that? 1:22:13.040 --> 1:22:13.360 I don't know. 1:22:13.439 --> 1:22:16.400 But nevertheless they goes down hard. 1:22:16.439 --> 1:22:20.320 You're won the game. Great fan basketball with Wes Miller. 1:22:20.840 --> 1:22:21.360 Great fan. 1:22:21.600 --> 1:22:24.960 Uh Catino is bathed now in the deep blue waters 1:22:25.040 --> 1:22:27.880 of Xavier basketball throwing and you got your favorite team, 1:22:27.920 --> 1:22:31.120 the Bengals. Josh Allen's running like a male buffalo in 1:22:31.160 --> 1:22:32.240 the ranges of Wyoming. 1:22:32.400 --> 1:22:33.880 Then the cherry on top of it is. 1:22:34.280 --> 1:22:37.840 Then on Sunday, about noon, we got a report that 1:22:38.040 --> 1:22:41.720 Notre Dame. Notre Dame is not in the cf P. 1:22:42.040 --> 1:22:45.040 They're done, They're over now, they're urinated off. They're not 1:22:45.160 --> 1:22:48.280 going to the toilet Bowl to play the Mormons. Joe 1:22:48.360 --> 1:22:51.519 Frederick was unhappy. Joe was gonna do T shirts Mormons 1:22:51.600 --> 1:22:54.800 versus the Catholics. That was going to be the bat 1:22:55.000 --> 1:22:55.559 Let me lay. 1:22:57.320 --> 1:22:59.400 Should have made the playoffs and then all lay out 1:22:59.400 --> 1:23:02.800 of case for why they may have been justified in 1:23:03.000 --> 1:23:05.280 staying out of the Bulls. Number one one, okay, start 1:23:05.360 --> 1:23:09.160 off zero to two, okay, But they lost those those 1:23:09.240 --> 1:23:12.240 two games by a combined four points. Okay, one was 1:23:12.320 --> 1:23:14.559 on a botched extra point. If they get that, they 1:23:14.720 --> 1:23:16.840 likely go and beat Texas a andely. But then they 1:23:16.960 --> 1:23:20.559 rattle off ten game win streak where they beat each 1:23:20.640 --> 1:23:23.680 team by an average of thirty points. Say, okay, say 1:23:23.760 --> 1:23:28.160 that again. How much ten straight victories? Average win was 1:23:28.200 --> 1:23:30.600 by thirty points. So they were blowing teams out of 1:23:30.600 --> 1:23:32.320 the waters. 1:23:33.720 --> 1:23:36.439 But can a team evolve? Can a team like get better? 1:23:36.520 --> 1:23:38.559 They start off the season with a brand new quarterback, 1:23:38.640 --> 1:23:42.320 three new offensive linemen. By the way, Alabama gets beat 1:23:42.960 --> 1:23:46.360 Okay by twenty one points where they had minus three 1:23:46.560 --> 1:23:50.200 rush yards, give them their third loss of the season, 1:23:50.280 --> 1:23:51.400 and they're going to the playoff. 1:23:51.600 --> 1:23:52.160 Are you kidding? 1:23:53.200 --> 1:23:56.760 Deserve to go to the playoffs minus three yards? Yesh, Yeah, 1:23:56.840 --> 1:23:59.800 that's impossible. So you're saying Notre Dame was screwed blue. 1:24:00.600 --> 1:24:04.960 For five weeks the committee had Notre Dame ranked above Miami. 1:24:05.120 --> 1:24:07.720 Then in the final week, no, no, we'll flip it. 1:24:08.040 --> 1:24:10.000 So what is the point of doing the rankings each 1:24:10.080 --> 1:24:12.840 week if they hold no regard it should it should 1:24:12.880 --> 1:24:15.040 evolve into something name didn't lose. 1:24:15.240 --> 1:24:17.400 You're making excuses. I'm not making. 1:24:18.720 --> 1:24:21.000 If no name was in the tournament. Okay, they would 1:24:21.040 --> 1:24:22.920 be a top they would be a top three favorite 1:24:22.960 --> 1:24:23.200 to win. 1:24:23.280 --> 1:24:26.000 The whole thing isn't James Madison's just a great football 1:24:26.080 --> 1:24:27.120 to make that makes sense. 1:24:27.200 --> 1:24:29.320 Now, I'm all for the little guy getting a shot, 1:24:29.439 --> 1:24:32.479 But James Madison Twulane are in the playoff and Notre 1:24:32.600 --> 1:24:33.960 Dame is not about Holly. 1:24:34.479 --> 1:24:36.519 Vanderbilt is not Texas is not. 1:24:36.680 --> 1:24:39.639 About Holly Madison. What about our cupcakes? I'm just saying, 1:24:40.200 --> 1:24:41.880 who had a who had a worst weekend? Let me 1:24:41.960 --> 1:24:43.200 give you give you four names? 1:24:43.680 --> 1:24:45.559 All right? You got Zach Shula. 1:24:46.240 --> 1:24:50.080 Okay, head coach of your Bengals, got Wes Miller of 1:24:50.160 --> 1:24:54.920 the UC Bearcats, Scott Saderfield and football Bearcats. 1:24:54.960 --> 1:24:56.439 And then Bill Belichick. 1:24:56.360 --> 1:24:58.040 Say it's for worst weekend? How about can you have 1:24:58.120 --> 1:24:59.400 a rocky boymen that list? 1:25:00.960 --> 1:25:03.680 You lost everything? But can I make a case? 1:25:04.120 --> 1:25:05.800 Can I make a case for an because I was like, 1:25:06.760 --> 1:25:08.280 they don't want to play a game, They're taking their 1:25:08.320 --> 1:25:11.680 ball and going home. Which look, let me start the 1:25:11.760 --> 1:25:14.560 argument by saying, I think if at this stage in 1:25:14.600 --> 1:25:16.880 your life you play football, you're a football player. That's 1:25:16.880 --> 1:25:18.559 what you should do. You should play football, right, they 1:25:18.560 --> 1:25:19.960 should you should want to play in that game. But 1:25:20.520 --> 1:25:26.120 I'm saying the times have changed. Okay that that you know, 1:25:26.600 --> 1:25:29.240 all the all the conversation at that we have at 1:25:29.479 --> 1:25:32.360 ESPN the entire year is who's going to make the 1:25:32.360 --> 1:25:35.280 playoffs in August. It's about who's gonna make a playoff. 1:25:35.360 --> 1:25:38.040 Do we ever talk about, boy, who's tracking to make 1:25:38.120 --> 1:25:42.520 the Liberty Bowl this year? No, it's never the conversation. 1:25:43.200 --> 1:25:48.360 So the fans, the players, and the media have all 1:25:48.560 --> 1:25:51.639 basically said, well, the bulls don't don't mean that much. 1:25:52.160 --> 1:25:54.760 So if the players say, say, okay, well you're telling 1:25:54.880 --> 1:25:57.679 us it don't matter much, then why does it matter 1:25:57.680 --> 1:25:57.920 if we. 1:25:57.920 --> 1:26:01.040 Don't play in it? Yeah? Yeah, yeah yeah. And let 1:26:01.080 --> 1:26:04.960 me tell you this example. So this just shows how 1:26:05.000 --> 1:26:05.800 far things have come. 1:26:05.920 --> 1:26:08.920 College football is transactional now with the with the players 1:26:08.960 --> 1:26:12.360 and the teams and everything. In two thousand, okay, we 1:26:12.439 --> 1:26:15.920 were fighting for a Fiesta Bowl bid, in which we got. Okay, 1:26:16.000 --> 1:26:18.080 we got blown out by Oregon State and Chad Johnson, 1:26:18.120 --> 1:26:21.360 but that's another story. But we we we went to 1:26:21.439 --> 1:26:25.040 that game, the Fiesta Bowl, and we got like five 1:26:25.160 --> 1:26:26.519 hundred dollars in swag. 1:26:27.000 --> 1:26:28.919 Okay, we got like some bow's headfield. 1:26:28.920 --> 1:26:30.720 You would have thought we died and went that, oh 1:26:30.800 --> 1:26:32.519 my god, we're gonna get like five hundred dollars. 1:26:32.720 --> 1:26:35.160 These kids are getting paid tens of thousands a week. 1:26:35.920 --> 1:26:37.639 Does four hundred dollars in swag? 1:26:37.840 --> 1:26:38.000 Move? 1:26:38.040 --> 1:26:38.519 These kids? 1:26:38.760 --> 1:26:38.800 No? 1:26:39.160 --> 1:26:41.320 And the players, So you're telling us that with all 1:26:41.400 --> 1:26:44.320 the discussion of college football that the only thing that 1:26:44.360 --> 1:26:45.879 matters is a college football playoff? 1:26:46.000 --> 1:26:46.280 Correct? 1:26:46.400 --> 1:26:49.840 And you're you're talking about everything is transactional and what's 1:26:49.920 --> 1:26:51.439 in it for me? And now all of a sudden, 1:26:52.040 --> 1:26:54.160 the kids should just play this game for the love. 1:26:54.600 --> 1:26:58.599 Here's an example. Here's an example if after this season 1:26:58.680 --> 1:27:02.559 in the NFL they had a an exhibition game between 1:27:02.600 --> 1:27:06.360 the Bengals and the Titans, and he told the players, well, players, 1:27:06.520 --> 1:27:08.360 you're not gonna you're not gonna get paid for this, 1:27:08.560 --> 1:27:11.080 but for you love football, I love go out there 1:27:11.080 --> 1:27:13.600 and play for the players wouldn't want to play in it. 1:27:13.720 --> 1:27:15.240 The fans would be like, well, why would we get 1:27:15.280 --> 1:27:17.920 our kids, our guys hurt for next year? At first, 1:27:18.040 --> 1:27:19.799 some of it doesn't mean anything. We can't win anything. 1:27:20.000 --> 1:27:22.200 Does that make any sense anything? I just said, no, 1:27:22.320 --> 1:27:23.120 it makes no sense. 1:27:23.439 --> 1:27:26.160 Of course, the athletic director notre Dame Babbaqua. I love 1:27:26.240 --> 1:27:30.000 the name Babbaqua because in the subject then they used 1:27:30.040 --> 1:27:34.040 to play for the Reds Deserve. I had some baclava 1:27:34.160 --> 1:27:36.280 Alex John Tefilu's house. That's a different issue. 1:27:36.560 --> 1:27:39.280 But according to Notre Dame made he said, we have 1:27:39.439 --> 1:27:43.080 permanent damage inflicted upon our relationship, have been. 1:27:43.000 --> 1:27:45.320 Wronged and until we are made right, how do you 1:27:45.400 --> 1:27:45.840 make it right? 1:27:46.000 --> 1:27:49.439 Because James and Holly and Polly and Holly Madison are 1:27:49.520 --> 1:27:52.800 making the case, and she's in She's in it too, 1:27:52.880 --> 1:27:55.400 isn't she? And what about two Lane the Green Wave? 1:27:55.800 --> 1:27:58.880 What if the Green Wave played Texas? What would happen 1:27:58.960 --> 1:28:00.880 to the Green Wave be playing Oregon? 1:28:00.960 --> 1:28:04.759 It'd be a ripple seventy points again, Now, James Madison, 1:28:04.840 --> 1:28:07.200 I've covered them that they are a really, really good team, 1:28:07.240 --> 1:28:08.719 but they're not They're not going to beat Oregon. 1:28:08.760 --> 1:28:10.960 What about what about and their coaches? He's going to 1:28:11.080 --> 1:28:13.720 u c l as. You didn't answer my question. What 1:28:13.840 --> 1:28:16.920 is the question? Who had the worst weekend? Rocky Boy. 1:28:20.840 --> 1:28:26.280 Little Rocks or Bill Belichick or you know, or Rocky boyman. 1:28:26.360 --> 1:28:29.639 I think maybe Zach Shula had a bad weekend. 1:28:31.320 --> 1:28:33.400 But by the way that that first the first half 1:28:33.439 --> 1:28:36.760 of that. Well, the whole game was just a great game, 1:28:37.080 --> 1:28:39.000 not for you know, for the Bengals, but the first half. 1:28:39.040 --> 1:28:41.599 I don't know if I've ever seen better quarterback play 1:28:41.840 --> 1:28:44.759 in the first half. That was thross guys are making. 1:28:44.680 --> 1:28:49.679 But the catches, yes, and they lost going they lost. 1:28:49.720 --> 1:28:51.479 What's his status? Has he heard? Does he have a 1:28:52.920 --> 1:28:54.880 if I someone wouldn't play anymore? Hell would? 1:28:56.000 --> 1:28:58.160 Here's here's another since I'm on a roll here there 1:28:59.200 --> 1:29:03.000 unpopular app Go ahead. If you're t Higgins, okay, and 1:29:04.000 --> 1:29:06.240 and you you know, if you have a head injury, 1:29:06.479 --> 1:29:07.120 then maybe you. 1:29:07.120 --> 1:29:07.720 Should stay out. 1:29:07.760 --> 1:29:09.439 But if you don't, or you want to act like 1:29:09.479 --> 1:29:11.760 you don't, don't every time you make a catch, come 1:29:11.840 --> 1:29:13.160 up holding your head, because what. 1:29:13.200 --> 1:29:14.200 Do you want to do? Do you want to stay 1:29:14.200 --> 1:29:14.479 in the game. 1:29:14.479 --> 1:29:16.599 Because if you want to stay in the game, they're 1:29:16.600 --> 1:29:18.000 gonna look at it and say, I don't know, he 1:29:18.040 --> 1:29:22.040 got wrong. So you either come out or you play 1:29:22.200 --> 1:29:24.599 as if you play through it and you don't act 1:29:24.640 --> 1:29:26.040 like you're hurt, and you're not gonna on my head, 1:29:26.120 --> 1:29:27.960 my head again, I do that big question. 1:29:28.160 --> 1:29:31.040 Unpopular opinion. Zack Sual is fired. 1:29:31.120 --> 1:29:34.280 You got one year remaining there since Bill Belichick and 1:29:34.400 --> 1:29:37.040 Jordan Hudson, No, John Gruden. 1:29:37.800 --> 1:29:41.200 Who do you pick? Jordan Hudson, Bill Belichick? 1:29:41.320 --> 1:29:43.280 What doesn't matter because he's going to be the coach 1:29:43.360 --> 1:29:44.160 that Bengals here. 1:29:44.520 --> 1:29:45.120 He signed through. 1:29:45.720 --> 1:29:47.280 I don't think he was the bank.

And you know what I'm saying, 1:34:01.800 --> 1:34:04.559 what do the Bengals have four wins four to nine, 1:34:05.120 --> 1:34:05.960 four games left? 1:34:06.200 --> 1:34:10.240 If the stud the Bengals with four wins in like 1:34:10.479 --> 1:34:12.439 mid December can make the playoffs? 1:34:12.640 --> 1:34:14.560 Yes, I don't think so. There's less than what. But 1:34:14.920 --> 1:34:19.439 can the Steelers tie two games? Is it possible? You 1:34:19.760 --> 1:34:22.200 you had the Bengals time two games last Year's all right? 1:34:22.280 --> 1:34:24.840 I was having her half right, thank you, thank you, 1:34:25.360 --> 1:34:25.680 thank you. 1:34:25.920 --> 1:34:28.719 Cincinnati Bearcats are going to face number twenty two Navy 1:34:29.520 --> 1:34:30.360 and the Liberty Bowl. 1:34:30.479 --> 1:34:33.080 I'm knowing that game on radio.

Soldier doesn't want to be there. I don't 1:34:45.840 --> 1:34:46.760 know the Navy. 1:34:46.520 --> 1:34:47.200 Scot Let's go. 1:34:47.520 --> 1:34:50.120 Miami RedHawks are going to take on Fresno State in 1:34:50.200 --> 1:34:53.479 the Snoop Dog Arizona Bowl Again, what about you? Saturday, 1:34:53.680 --> 1:34:57.479 December twenty seventh, Signetti, the head coach of Indiana, could 1:34:57.520 --> 1:35:00.840 coach the UC Bearcats. But my cousin John Cunningham said 1:35:01.040 --> 1:35:04.400 he wasn't ready two years ago. Three years ago when 1:35:04.600 --> 1:35:09.360 former former Bearcat and Buckeye's assistant Carry Cole about this one, 1:35:09.520 --> 1:35:10.400 I texted him. 1:35:10.640 --> 1:35:13.799 Has been hired as by Michigan as their special teams. 1:35:13.880 --> 1:35:15.599 Court has a sense of humor. 1:35:15.960 --> 1:35:19.880 He goes from the Union of the Confederacy. Cray Carroll 1:35:20.000 --> 1:35:24.160 is the Big East player of the week points against 1:35:24.240 --> 1:35:29.200 UC Dan Carroll. Is that the same guy? Carol EXAVIORLKP 1:35:29.439 --> 1:35:33.240 Top twenty five, Arizona's new number one, Michigan two, Duke three, 1:35:33.920 --> 1:35:38.240 Purdue is six, Neville's eleventh. Kentucky and Indiana both out 1:35:38.760 --> 1:35:40.800 of the top twenty five for the first times in 1:35:40.880 --> 1:35:44.200 the eighteen hundreds. The Miami RedHawks and Travis Steel at 1:35:44.240 --> 1:35:47.120 eight to zero. They got two votes. Look out for 1:35:47.160 --> 1:35:51.160 the Hawks rock Can you see Signetti coaching the UC Bearcats? 1:35:51.200 --> 1:35:52.960 But John Cunningham said he wasn't ready. 1:35:54.720 --> 1:35:58.280 Look, I don't think even Indiana could have predicted how 1:35:58.439 --> 1:36:01.240 well that guy was going to do coveredy when he 1:36:01.360 --> 1:36:04.160 was at JMU. The thing he had, and I argued 1:36:04.200 --> 1:36:07.800 this last week, is he has every place he's been, 1:36:10.520 --> 1:36:12.880 every place he's been, he has a culture of winning. 1:36:13.040 --> 1:36:14.240 He has a resume of winning. 1:36:14.600 --> 1:36:18.040 If it's Division like two, Division two schools, jam, everywhere 1:36:18.080 --> 1:36:19.360 he's been, he's won. 1:36:20.439 --> 1:36:25.479 Instead of no, everybody's going thirty thirty one years old. 1:36:25.640 --> 1:36:30.360 Sounds like somebody in Oxford exactly. Chuck Martin team should 1:36:30.400 --> 1:36:32.960 get smart and wins. He just wins, that's it. It 1:36:33.640 --> 1:36:34.400 didn't win last year. 1:36:35.479 --> 1:36:37.960 My brother John Cunningham, I got a guy named Kurt 1:36:38.040 --> 1:36:41.439 Signetti from JMU that I never heard of, or Scott 1:36:41.520 --> 1:36:43.000 Solderfield from Louisville. 1:36:43.000 --> 1:36:43.639 Who do we pick? 1:36:45.800 --> 1:36:49.560 I think I think the fan base, especially now with 1:36:49.760 --> 1:36:52.880 Twitter where you can actually hear from from fans. I 1:36:53.000 --> 1:36:56.679 think that that sways decisions a lot of major decisions 1:36:56.760 --> 1:36:58.679 in any realm, but certainly when it comes to hiring 1:36:58.680 --> 1:37:03.639 a head coach. If who's a school that lost the coach, 1:37:03.960 --> 1:37:08.720 if Ole miss it hired Chuck Martin, which actually might 1:37:08.760 --> 1:37:10.720 have been like, in my opinion, you could do a 1:37:10.800 --> 1:37:12.439 lot worse than that, right right, we actually good. 1:37:12.479 --> 1:37:14.920 But all the band base coach they would lose their minds. 1:37:14.960 --> 1:37:15.800 So you couldn't do that. 1:37:16.200 --> 1:37:19.160 As an athleticerer, you couldn't do that. You take an 1:37:19.160 --> 1:37:22.559 athletic director with a lot of you know, a little 1:37:22.600 --> 1:37:27.040 personal uh, you know fortitude. I guess you could say 1:37:27.160 --> 1:37:29.000 you had a bad weekend, just admitted you had a 1:37:29.040 --> 1:37:31.880 bad it was. The Bombers will be back though, there 1:37:31.920 --> 1:37:33.920 always are going back, just like the. 1:37:33.960 --> 1:37:37.439 Park will arise again. Not sure when at the park, 1:37:37.520 --> 1:37:39.400 you gotta find some more nil and then they got 1:37:39.600 --> 1:37:42.400 it will arise again from the NBA Africa League. When 1:37:42.439 --> 1:37:45.680 that happens, I'll let you know, say get me out here, 1:37:45.760 --> 1:37:48.640 you will give me a j M. You I mean, 1:37:48.680 --> 1:37:52.120 I thought George Washington, John Adams, Madison Monroe. I thought 1:37:52.160 --> 1:37:54.479 they were you know, founding fathers. Didn't know they were 1:37:54.520 --> 1:37:56.120 like a football team. So you got those guys. 1:37:56.280 --> 1:37:56.439 Yeah. 1:37:56.600 --> 1:37:59.360 Harrisonburg, Virginia. It's a beautiful campus. I've called games there. 1:37:59.400 --> 1:38:04.960 It's great, great program. James Madison University. Yes, her fans 1:38:04.960 --> 1:38:07.080 showed up to the games and cheer. It's great. They like, 1:38:08.120 --> 1:38:09.120 how will they do it? Oregon? 1:38:09.880 --> 1:38:13.439 They're they're coaching now. Bob Chesney is going to UCLA, 1:38:13.560 --> 1:38:14.720 though that one doesn't make sense. 1:38:14.720 --> 1:38:15.400 I like him a lot. 1:38:15.560 --> 1:38:17.640 Is he in related to Kenny Chesney? Is that the 1:38:17.920 --> 1:38:21.160 same is a step brother stepbrother? And then the guy 1:38:21.200 --> 1:38:23.479 at Xavier is Dan Carroll's son. Is that what you're saying? 1:38:24.280 --> 1:38:26.880 You said that I didn't give me out of stood 1:38:27.880 --> 1:38:31.120 Willy on a crazy Monday after a wild weekend.
