Speaker 1: By Billy Cunningham in the Great America. Welcome this Monday
Speaker 1: afternoon in the tri States. So many issues going on
Speaker 1: in so little time. Of course, this Sunday, the Bengalis
Speaker 1: tee it up again against the Ravens, probably a game
Speaker 1: that means nothing, but who knows. I've seen some analysis
Speaker 1: this morning. If I keep saying this, if the Bengals
Speaker 1: went out, that means Pittsburgh got to lose three of
Speaker 1: the next four games, which is possible. And that's also
Speaker 1: if Baltimore has two or three ties of the next
Speaker 1: four games, that comes into play. One of the analysis was, well,
Speaker 1: what if the Pittsburgh Steelers tie a game or two?
Speaker 2: What does that mean?
Speaker 1: We're breaking it down a man that can break it
Speaker 1: down and tell me why James Madison, a good friend
Speaker 1: of George Washington and John Adams, gets into the college
Speaker 1: playoffs instead of Notre Dame. That's another issue the Rock's
Speaker 1: going to deal with once again. Moeger, Welcome to the
Speaker 1: Bill Cunningham Show. And first of all, can you break
Speaker 1: down where we are right now in Bengaledom give me
Speaker 1: a full report.
Speaker 3: Well, I'm not sure we have enough time to break
Speaker 3: down everything going on in Bengal dem but I'll put
Speaker 3: a to you this way with you know, whatever was
Speaker 3: eight minutes and forty nine seconds remaining in the fourth
Speaker 3: quarter yesterday the Bengals had a ten point lead, and
Speaker 3: I'm thinking if if they could somehow close out this game,
Speaker 3: then it's going to sort of feel like game on
Speaker 3: as it relates to their playoff chances. Right, Not that
Speaker 3: making the postseason was going to be easy or even likely,
Speaker 3: but you would have gone on the road beating the
Speaker 3: Buffalo Bills. You have a chance to play the Baltimore
Speaker 3: Ravens this week. Either Pittsburgh or Baltimore is going to
Speaker 3: lose because they played yesterday eight and changed to go
Speaker 3: you're up by ten, boy, even this Bengals team isn't
Speaker 3: going to blow that one. Well, as it turns out,
Speaker 3: they did because of a cacophony of mistakes. Bills go
Speaker 3: down and score in four plays. Joe Burrow throws to
Speaker 3: pick six, another pick on a tip pass. Oh, they
Speaker 3: can't get off the field on Josh Allen running the
Speaker 3: ball on third and fifteen. Oh, it just it was
Speaker 3: a microcosm of the season to a degree. A defense
Speaker 3: that has failed to rise to the occasion every single
Speaker 3: time falters again, yep. And the one thing you kind
Speaker 3: of felt like you could hang your hat on, which
Speaker 3: is Joe Burrow having the ball in his hands with
Speaker 3: a lead, unfortunately goes awry and this team falls to
Speaker 3: four and nine.
Speaker 1: Have you thought about writing a book on this season?
Speaker 1: Because every game is like a chapter of Shakespeare in proportions,
Speaker 1: the highest of law hies, the lowest of lows, all
Speaker 1: happening against the Bengals. Against the Bengals, it never happens
Speaker 1: toward them. They go to Baltimore, which you thought was
Speaker 1: a tough place to play. They beat Lamar Jackson in
Speaker 1: Baltimore Thanksgiving Night, Then with eight and change left, they
Speaker 1: got a ten point lead in Buffalo and you're thinking, Okay,
Speaker 1: they're gonna come home. Then beat Baltimore again, go the
Speaker 1: next three games they're back in. Have you thought about
Speaker 1: a book and each chapter would be like there might
Speaker 1: be seventeen chapters in the book, but this one, yeah,
Speaker 1: has got to be like the Jets or like the Bears.
Speaker 2: Incredible. You can't make this stuff up.
Speaker 3: Mo.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: The the manner in which they have lost has been remarkable,
Speaker 3: you know. Paul Danner Junior had the stat yesterday writer
Speaker 3: for The Athletic that since the beginning of last season,
Speaker 3: NFL teams when they score thirty three or more points
Speaker 3: are one, thirty six, ten and two. That doesn't include
Speaker 3: the Bengals, who are now four and seven. It's been
Speaker 3: a hallmark of these last two years where they score
Speaker 3: a bunch of points and they have a defense that
Speaker 3: simply can't get off the field. And look, Joe Burrow
Speaker 3: threw a pitch six yesterday that he can't throw. But
Speaker 3: you know, this team demands he be perfect and man
Speaker 3: for three plus quarters, he was, he was awesome yesterday
Speaker 3: for three plus quarters. He throws a pick six, he
Speaker 3: makes a mistake. It can't happen, certainly can't happen in
Speaker 3: the fourth quarter when you're trying to protect the lead.
Speaker 3: But the Bengals demand that Oburrow do everything for them.
Speaker 3: The Bengals demand that Joe Burrow be perfect, and when
Speaker 3: that doesn't work, the infrastructure of the team isn't strong
Speaker 3: enough to avoid a collapse. And that's exactly what happened yesterday.
Speaker 1: Of course you want to ignore for a moment, I'll
Speaker 1: come back to it. The Crosstown shootout that's a different matter.
Speaker 1: And so Duke, by the way, I think as fair
Speaker 1: as Tony Pike's got to owe me sixteen hot fut Sundays,
Speaker 1: he keeps going double or nothing on UC and losing,
Speaker 1: that's a different issue. But Duke Tobin and Zach Taylor,
Speaker 1: the two of them together have picked the roster. I
Speaker 1: would think Zach Taylor has significant influence. I would think
Speaker 1: Duke Tobin is the decision maker. I would think Mike
Speaker 1: Brown is in the background somewhere, but hell, he's ninety
Speaker 1: years old. But nonetheless, every news conference of Zach Taylor
Speaker 1: looks the same way. He looks perplexed, uncertain, doesn't know
Speaker 1: what to do. And so now the defensive coordinator Al Golden.
Speaker 1: You took the D out of his name, Golden. But nonetheless,
Speaker 1: the season's over, it's done. Joe Burrow turns thirty in December.
Speaker 2: Of next year. There's no hope. And Joe Burrow's is
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow bengalized at this point? Is he thoroughly infected
Speaker 2: or not?
Speaker 3: He looked like it at the end of the game yesterday.
Speaker 3: But you know, look the clock is ticking. This is why,
Speaker 3: this is why you have legitimate conversations about who should
Speaker 3: be picking the players next offseason. And this is why
Speaker 3: you have legitimate conversations about who the head coach should be.
Speaker 3: Because the Bengals have a meal ticket. Joe Burrow is it.
Speaker 3: They've got him for the rest of the decade. Who
Speaker 3: knows what's gonna happen with Joe Burrow at the end
Speaker 3: of the twenty twenty nine season. Who knows the next
Speaker 3: time You're gonna have a genuine a list quarterback Willie
Speaker 3: if you watched him yesterday for three plus quarters, who
Speaker 3: look like the best quarterback in the sport? And I
Speaker 3: think he is? And look again, thirty two to twenty
Speaker 3: eight or twenty eight to twenty five. You can't throw
Speaker 3: a pitch six right into the hands of an oncoming defender.
Speaker 3: You can't. Joe would be the first to admit that.
Speaker 3: But time is the essence here. The idea behind drafting
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow in twenty twenty was to win a championship.
Speaker 2: While you have him.
Speaker 3: They came agonizingly close at the end of the twenty
Speaker 3: twenty one season, and when they did, I think most
Speaker 3: of us believe that by now they would at least
Speaker 3: continue to be serious contentions. They're on the verge of
Speaker 3: missing the postseason for a third consecutive year, and you
Speaker 3: just you wonder, You wonder what he's thinking. You wonder
Speaker 3: what they're going to do because you're going to probably
Speaker 3: miss the postseason for a third consecutive year with Joe
Speaker 3: Burrow as your quarterback. That was not supposed to happen.
Speaker 3: That can't happen, and so it's fair to wonder how
Speaker 3: do they get it turned around to the degree that
Speaker 3: a year from now, we're not talking about the Bengals
Speaker 3: scratching and clawing and trying to find their way into
Speaker 3: the postseason. We're talking about this team competing for a
Speaker 3: number one seed. We're talking about this team legitimately competing
Speaker 3: for a championship.
Speaker 1: I want to ask you a big question a bit
Speaker 1: early before we go on the Crosstown shoot out, which
Speaker 1: I love.
Speaker 2: Are you ready for the big question?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 1: Who's in worse shape? Scott Saderfield, Zach Taylor or Wes Miller.
Speaker 1: Those are your three choices. You can have It's Miller
Speaker 1: time with Wes. You're gonna have Zach Taylor, who looks lost,
Speaker 1: or Scott Saderfield, who won seven in a row, then
Speaker 1: lost several in a row. At least they played Navy.
Speaker 1: God blessed the Navy. Who's in worse shape Saderfield, Taylor
Speaker 1: or Miller?
Speaker 3: Well, unfortunately for Less, I would have to say it's him,
Speaker 3: because with Zach Taylor you have Joe Burrow and you
Speaker 3: have a track record. Now, it's a track record that's
Speaker 3: heavily weighted towards things that happened longer and longer ago.
Speaker 3: But he was the coach for back to back AFC
Speaker 3: championship games. That was the coach for a Super Bowl appearance. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I think with Scott Saderfield, as unfulfilling as the end
Speaker 3: of the season has been, they were better this year.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: I think it's completely fair to wonder what's the state
Speaker 3: of the roster going to look like next season, because
Speaker 3: I think when you have all the player that came
Speaker 3: back to UC for this year, and when you have
Speaker 3: the impact players the Bearcats acquired via the transfer portal
Speaker 3: who are basically going to be one year guys, most
Speaker 3: of their really good players are set to leave, and
Speaker 3: so seven and five feels pretty underwhelming, but it was
Speaker 3: mathematical improvement. I think with Wes Miller. You lack the
Speaker 3: track record, right, Like the baseline level of expectation is
Speaker 3: make the NCAA Tournament. It hasn't happened yet. Then you
Speaker 3: look at the team and how they're playing. You look
Speaker 3: at the NCAA Tournament mass last season going into Big
Speaker 3: Twelve play, the Bearcats had one non conference loss, felt
Speaker 3: pretty good, and then we saw the uphill battle they
Speaker 3: had once Big Twelfth play got here. That was with
Speaker 3: a talented team, Willie. The Bearcats last year had players
Speaker 3: who when they left went to places like Saint John's Baylor,
Speaker 3: a Big ten school in Penn State. Northwestern didn't go
Speaker 3: to these remote outposts to finish or continue their college basketball.
Speaker 3: And so you look at it this year. They already
Speaker 3: have three losses. They have a game that's effectively a
Speaker 3: road game against an SEC team in Georgia that has
Speaker 3: lost once. Then a week from Saturday, they have to
Speaker 3: play effectively a road game in South Carolina against the
Speaker 3: Clemson Team's pretty good. You already have three losses, one
Speaker 3: of them's bad at home to Eastern Michigan. You have
Speaker 3: two more games against high major competition. Oh, and then
Speaker 3: the Big Twelve starts, and the first game is going
Speaker 3: to be against Houston. This was looked at as an
Speaker 3: NCAA tournament or bust seasons. Right now, making the NCAA
Speaker 3: tournament doesn't seem likely. And that's year five for Wes Miller.
Speaker 3: And I think we all know. As much as I
Speaker 3: really do like Wes a lot, I think I think
Speaker 3: he would be the first to tell you that not
Speaker 3: making the tournament this year was going to make the
Speaker 3: Natives even more restless than they already are, and was
Speaker 3: going to put his job status squarely in perhaps the administration's.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, my cousin, John Cunningham athletic director. You see,
Speaker 1: after two years, gave him a long term, guaranteed bonus
Speaker 1: light and extension of his contract. Do you know how
Speaker 1: much money it would cost to tell Wes Miller goodbye
Speaker 1: at the end of this year.
Speaker 3: Cost a lot of money, Bill, no question about it,
Speaker 3: millions when he gave him and when he gave him
Speaker 3: that extension. What they were trying to do was have
Speaker 3: the head basketball coaches salary reflect the league they were in.
Speaker 3: They paid him a big twelve salary, and I think
Speaker 3: for the better part of three and a half years,
Speaker 3: everybody has been willing to give Wes the benefit of
Speaker 3: the doubt. I think when things unfolded towards the end
Speaker 3: of the season the way they did for the Bearcats,
Speaker 3: not just not making the tournament, but not really even
Speaker 3: coming close, playing some games at the end of the
Speaker 3: year where they were just simply not very competitive, I
Speaker 3: think it really started to make people go, Okay, time
Speaker 3: for something better, Time for something bigger. That has to
Speaker 3: include at least come close to the NCAA tournament. You know,
Speaker 3: it's one thing if hey, your team sixty nine and
Speaker 3: you were just on the outside looking in and had
Speaker 3: a good resume and the committee didn't take you, it's
Speaker 3: something else entirely, if Selection Sunday gets here and the
Speaker 3: Bearcats are an afterthought, something else entirely. If you lose
Speaker 3: fifteen games, sixteen games, seventeen games, and so, I think
Speaker 3: it's completely reasonable to wonder how they're going to be
Speaker 3: able to avoid doing that, And if they don't avoid
Speaker 3: doing that, I think the conversations about West Miller are
Speaker 3: going to be really interesting. Now.
Speaker 1: You know, Richard Patino is now bathed deeply in the
Speaker 1: blue waters of Xavier basketball. When he showed up after
Speaker 1: the game at the Dane Gardens. He came in as
Speaker 1: a conquering hero to Rome. All the Plebeians were there,
Speaker 1: they were shouting. He picked up the check, He left
Speaker 1: thousands of dollars of the Dane of Gardens and bought
Speaker 1: the beer for the Xavier students. He was carried down
Speaker 1: in the back of Xavier students to a chariot, and
Speaker 1: then off he went to his palatial estate. Richard Patino
Speaker 1: is the real deal. And now UC's gonna have some
Speaker 1: more serious problems. Let's move on to something else, Mo,
Speaker 1: and that is the college football Playoffs playoffs. Now, is
Speaker 1: James Madison in Tulane among the twelve best football teams
Speaker 1: and Notre Dame out?
Speaker 2: What do you say about that one, Mo, Well, they're.
Speaker 3: Not among the twelve best teams, but they're in based
Speaker 3: on agreed upon rules that everybody signed off on. The
Speaker 3: NCAA tournament, which obviously has a larger field, has never
Speaker 3: been about taking the best sixty eight teams. It's always
Speaker 3: been about taking the sixty eight teams that either qualified
Speaker 3: automatically or were chosen by a committee. And you know,
Speaker 3: I think Notre Dame to a large degree got screwed
Speaker 3: because the message for weeks was their head to head
Speaker 3: loss against Miami didn't matter. Well, I think it should have,
Speaker 3: But for weeks on end, the committee decided that head
Speaker 3: to head loss didn't matter, right to the degree that
Speaker 3: the Irish were ranked ahead of the Hurricanes. Suddenly, with
Speaker 3: neither team playing a game this weekend, we're given an
Speaker 3: opposite message. Suddenly that head to head game does matter,
Speaker 3: and Notre Dame is on the outside looking in. Now,
Speaker 3: what I would say to Notre Dame is number one, yes,
Speaker 3: your gripes are very legitimate. Number two, you want your independence.
Speaker 3: You don't want to be in a conference. Sometimes independence
Speaker 3: comes at a price. This, to a degree is what
Speaker 3: it is. They can't win a conference championship. Now, I
Speaker 3: guess they have signed a memorandum of understanding that will
Speaker 3: essentially guarantee them inclusion if they're ranked in the top
Speaker 3: twelve moving forward. That memorandum of understanding doesn't go into
Speaker 3: effect next year. So, okay, you have cherished and fought
Speaker 3: for and maintained your independence from a conference. Okay, that
Speaker 3: comes at a price. This is part of the price
Speaker 3: that you pay. The James Madison inclusion and the two
Speaker 3: lane inclusion. Look, I certainly understand arguments that suggest we're
Speaker 3: trying to crown a champion here, the field is too
Speaker 3: small for a feel good story. Let's pick the best
Speaker 3: twelve teams. Neither too later. James Madison then would be
Speaker 3: considered among the best twelve teams.
Speaker 2: But everybody agreed upon these rules going in.
Speaker 3: Just like in the ACC. You know, there was a
Speaker 3: movement to have Miami play in the ACC championship game
Speaker 3: even though they didn't qualify based on tiebreakers, so a
Speaker 3: five loss Duke team got to play for the ACC title.
Speaker 3: When Duke beat Virginia, that effectively guaranteed James Madison a
Speaker 3: spot in the playoffs. Those ACC rules were agreed upon,
Speaker 3: membership had a chance to vote, they agreed on their tiebreaker,
Speaker 3: and the tiebreaker played out unfortunately in the short term,
Speaker 3: at least not in Miami's favor, although they ultimately did
Speaker 3: make it. We have procedures and protocols for a reason.
Speaker 3: The procedures and protocols for the ACC dictated that the
Speaker 3: five loss team played for the conference title. The procedures
Speaker 3: of playoffs say that the top five ranked conference champions
Speaker 3: make the postseason make the playoff. The way things unfolded
Speaker 3: this year. That meant a bid for Tulane, and it
Speaker 3: meant a bid for James Madison. And I'm sure that
Speaker 3: that series of protocols and rules will be blown up
Speaker 3: at the end of this season because you're gonna have
Speaker 3: a lot of folks in the sport, the power brokers
Speaker 3: who don't want to see the little guy get a chance.
Speaker 3: And I understand it, I do, I really do. I'm
Speaker 3: not sure I want to watch James Madison play Oregon.
Speaker 3: But if you're griping about it, well, the gripe should
Speaker 3: have came. The grape should have come when these set
Speaker 3: of rules were agreed to to begin with.
Speaker 2: And you know what's behind this is the Sherman Clayton
Speaker 2: Anti Trust Act. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: There were decuitions held about the lawyers for the smaller
Speaker 1: schools saying, look, if you don't include us in all
Speaker 1: this money. I think each school gets like four million
Speaker 1: dollars plus plus plus, we're going to sue under the
Speaker 1: Sherman and Clayton Ani Trust Act. So the lawyers essentially
Speaker 1: designed that Notre Dame would not be in your comments
Speaker 1: on that one.
Speaker 3: Well, you know again, Notre Dame. I understand the gripe.
Speaker 3: I share it for weeks on end when you're told
Speaker 3: one thing and then you're told something entirely different, with
Speaker 3: no game on the field to influence the decision making.
Speaker 3: I understand their gripe. But again, there's a price you
Speaker 3: pay for your independence. It's not always going to work
Speaker 3: out for you, and in this particular set of circumstances,
Speaker 3: it didn't work out for Notre Dame. I do understand
Speaker 3: their frustration, and by the way, it doesn't bother me
Speaker 3: at all the fact that they've chosen to not play
Speaker 3: in a ball game. Marcus Freeman and the athletic director
Speaker 3: there have to make decisions based on what they think
Speaker 3: is best for Notre Dame's football program. Florida State was
Speaker 3: snubbed in the fourteen College Football Playoff two years ago
Speaker 3: and then embarrassed itself on the field with a bunch
Speaker 3: of guys who didn't play against Georgia. I would say
Speaker 3: not playing in a ball game is better than doing
Speaker 3: what Florida State did two years ago. The ball system
Speaker 3: is blowing up anyway, But yeah, look.
Speaker 2: The what Notre Dame did, What Notre Dame has done to.
Speaker 3: This point, by not being in a conference. Can't win
Speaker 3: a conference championship if you're not in one. And so
Speaker 3: when you have a resume that's deserving of consideration, you
Speaker 3: are still putting yourself at the mercy of a committee
Speaker 3: and their individual preferences and biases, and you get what
Speaker 3: you have come And even if I disagree with what
Speaker 3: the committee ultimately chose to do with them.
Speaker 1: Well, a giraft is a horse designed by a committee.
Speaker 1: Now are you ready for the Are you ready for
Speaker 1: the big question? Are you ready for a big question?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Zach Taylor's got one year left on his contract, makes
Speaker 1: about four and a half million a year. What are
Speaker 1: the odds of Bill Belichick, along with Jordan Hudson and
Speaker 1: John Gruden coaching the Bengals next year other than Zach Taylor?
Speaker 3: Why would I want either of them?
Speaker 1: Well, because number one, Jordan Hudson would be the story
Speaker 1: of the year. You talk about good stuff that we
Speaker 1: would have talked about. Bill Belichick did a great job
Speaker 1: at the tar Heels and John Ruden still has a
Speaker 1: lawsuit pending. What are the odds of any of that happening?
Speaker 2: Zero point zero.
Speaker 3: There's a better chance of me getting Sidney Sweeney to
Speaker 3: come to next year's iHeart Media Christmas Party. Mike, I
Speaker 3: don't know who the successor to Zach Taylor would be.
Speaker 3: I would be willing to bet it's not going to
Speaker 3: be some regurgitated coach by Bill Belichick or John Gruden.
Speaker 2: How about Jordan Hudson and Sidney Sween.
Speaker 3: Jordan Hudson. If Jordan Hudson made an Cincinnati I can't
Speaker 3: imagine how you would behave.
Speaker 2: It'd be wonderful, it would be absolutely wonderful. All right, Moe,
Speaker 2: thank you, But we look forward to the off season
Speaker 2: now with Scott Souderfield, Zach Taylor, Wes Miller, Bill Belichick,
Speaker 2: and John Gruden. Moe, thank you very much for coming
Speaker 2: on The Bill Cunningham Show. And hopefully we'll do something
Speaker 2: next Monday on the Bengals. Bengals great victory, possibly this
Speaker 2: Sunday against the Ravens, and hopefully the Steelers retie to
Speaker 2: of their remaining games, and if that happens, the Bengals
Speaker 2: are in Mo. Thank you very much.
Speaker 3: And then we have to have a like a segment
Speaker 3: where we preview the Liberty.
Speaker 1: Ball, right correct, it'll be huge, huge on seven hundred WQLW,
Speaker 1: sure hit the music. I have a call in to
Speaker 1: Doug Brannon, the attorney for Alex Shrevinsky, had a trial
Speaker 1: schedule for today set off until January. I'm still predicting
Speaker 1: the case. We're not going to trial because the city
Speaker 1: of Cincinnati cannot afford to have police officers, in fact,
Speaker 1: command police officers testify on behalf of the defendant. Alex
Speaker 1: Stravinsky hardly ever does the defense in this case. Doug Brannon,
Speaker 1: the attorney issue subpoenis for cops to come in to
Speaker 1: support the defendant. And so I don't know why it
Speaker 1: was continued. Have some calls in to some individuals. We'll
Speaker 1: find out what one happened to what went on later on.
Speaker 1: So we wish the defendant who was beaten to within
Speaker 1: an inch of his life, Alex Shavinsky and also Allie
Speaker 1: had her head treated like a football on Elm Street.
Speaker 1: And then the city fathers and mothers demanded that white
Speaker 1: people be charged with a crime and so and Alex
Speaker 1: Stravinsky was, which was a bunch of bs. So we'll
Speaker 1: try to discover by Tuesday or Wednesday, what's happening in
Speaker 1: the courtroom downtown. Secondly, as you know, the last four
Speaker 1: or five days, I was in the Naples, Florida Broadcast
Speaker 1: Center of iHeartMedia. Had a little time off, play a
Speaker 1: little golf of the boys get down South.
Speaker 2: I love it there.
Speaker 1: While I was gone, the whole issue broke about half
Speaker 1: Tad Pureval and the REPO man coming after repossession seemingly
Speaker 1: multiple vehicle repossessions of af Tad Pureval, who spends more
Speaker 1: money on his hair than on his cars.
Speaker 2: A lot of questions on that.
Speaker 1: But to go back a little bit, the three people
Speaker 1: who run the City of Cincinnati's billion dollar budget are
Speaker 1: number one haf tab puer Ofval, Number two Share her long,
Speaker 1: Number three jan Michelle lemon Kearney. She's the top vote
Speaker 1: getter on council every year. She's the conscience of council
Speaker 1: along with Victoria Parks, who's the President of pro Tem
Speaker 1: of Council. By the way, she's the one that said
Speaker 1: Holly begged to be beaten. That's another story. Those three
Speaker 1: individuals run the city of Cincinnati economically. Who just paid
Speaker 1: eight point one million dollars to the so called protesters
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty after the so called George Floyd killing
Speaker 1: in Minneapolis, that's another story I deal without in a moment.
Speaker 1: On one hand, I'm not sure i've met Jan Michelle
Speaker 1: Lemon Kearney, but she is the top vote geter on council.
Speaker 1: She's going to be the next mayor. I think she's
Speaker 1: in her mid sixties or late sixties. Wanning Hills graduate,
Speaker 1: the lady went to the Ivy League school.
Speaker 2: She went to.
Speaker 1: Dartmouth, got a degree from Dartmouth in the Ivy League.
Speaker 1: Also got two degrees from Harvard. One is a master's degree,
Speaker 1: the other one is the Jery's doctor degree, which by
Speaker 1: the way, I hold proudly from the University of Toledo.
Speaker 2: So the woman is extremely smart.
Speaker 1: She's run many businesses, got into public service about four
Speaker 1: or five years ago, and she's always the top vote
Speaker 1: get her own council. So she's one of the three
Speaker 1: that run financially the city. Looking at a story a
Speaker 1: few years back from the Dayton Daily News, and I'll
Speaker 1: pull it up here so I look at it more closely.
Speaker 1: The new Lieutenant governor candidate that was Eric Kearney. He
Speaker 1: was in the state Senate at the time, and his wife,
Speaker 1: that's the current council member, Jan Michelle lemon Kearney owe
Speaker 1: nearly one million dollars in back taxes. So the story
Speaker 1: cut in my eye a few years ago. That's a
Speaker 1: lot of money to owe a million dollars in back taxas,
Speaker 1: and both of them owed owe it to the federal government,
Speaker 1: or at least owed it. Eric Kearney, I met him
Speaker 1: a few times, was in the state Senate for about
Speaker 1: eight years. Good guy, good man, funny, great to be with.
Speaker 1: Go into the story, the two of them found several
Speaker 1: businesses running up IRS debts of close to one million
Speaker 1: dollars plus plus plus. The story goes on to say,
Speaker 1: we're working it out. I'm an entrepreneur, so Jan Michelle
Speaker 1: lemon Kearney, I hope she's worked out her difficulties. She
Speaker 1: didn't pay her quarterly estimate, she didn't pay her quarterly
Speaker 1: payments to the Internal Revenue Service. Those are the monies
Speaker 1: out of your employees paycheck that the employer matches that
Speaker 1: handles Social Security. So when you don't pay your quarterlyes
Speaker 1: FIKA taxes, they will come after you for that because
Speaker 1: it's not your money, it's your employees money. And so
Speaker 1: after a while, the two of them, according to this
Speaker 1: story Dayton Daily News and the year is twenty thirteen.
Speaker 1: Democratic Lieutenant Governor candidate Eric Kearney and his wife jan
Speaker 1: Michelle Lemon Kearney and their businesses owe nearly one million
Speaker 1: dollars in back taxes, according to the records Hamlet County Recorder.
Speaker 1: I'm breaking it down.
Speaker 2: That's not good. It's kind of bad. I hope it's
Speaker 2: worked out.
Speaker 1: An employee er must take the moneies out of the
Speaker 1: employee paychecks and give it to FIKA, and you have
Speaker 1: to match that. I think it's about six point two
Speaker 1: five percent each, about thirteen percent, and that's the Social
Speaker 1: Security fighter taxes. As an employer, you don't pay those
Speaker 1: you've collected it. Don't pay them. You've got problems and
Speaker 1: a nice lady likely be be the next mayor. But
Speaker 1: is it fair to say she's had in the past
Speaker 1: serious financial problems? Is out a yes or no? Raise
Speaker 1: your hand.
Speaker 2: If it's a yes, all right, you agree with me.
Speaker 1: Secondly, next woman in charge of the City of Cincinnati
Speaker 1: finances of billion dollars a year is share a long
Speaker 1: so uh? And I want to thank Sharon Cooliage. Sharon
Speaker 1: Cooliage and now works for the Prosecutor's office for running
Speaker 1: these stories about the selection of share Al Long, and
Speaker 1: this goes on to say the headline is SHAREL Long
Speaker 1: has filed personal bankruptcy and it was a chapter thirteen
Speaker 1: something in that character and a lengthy story about why
Speaker 1: she owes the money and where the money went, et cetera.
Speaker 3: But it's a.
Speaker 1: Serious problem when you're seeking to become a city manager
Speaker 1: and guess what to filed bankruptcy and didn't disclose that
Speaker 1: they have to have pure of all. There was this
Speaker 1: big time law firm, a big time headhunting firm, spent
Speaker 1: his time looking into the several candidates for Cincinnati City Council,
Speaker 1: and city Council decided to more or less pick share
Speaker 1: Along this is in twenty twenty two to be the
Speaker 1: next city manager. And the story headline, written by Sharon
Speaker 1: Coolidge of the Inquiry, Cincinnati City Manager designate share Along
Speaker 1: would come to the job of managing the city's one
Speaker 1: billion dollars in budgets, having previously filed for personal bankruptcy
Speaker 1: and the history of small tax problems. The Inquiry is
Speaker 1: found have to have pure of All announced Long as
Speaker 1: his pick last Friday, and he did not know about
Speaker 1: Long's previous financial problems until Long told him on Wednesday,
Speaker 1: which is several days after she was selected. So you
Speaker 1: went through the process and she filed bankruptcy in twenty
Speaker 1: eight finalized in twenty thirteen. The state tax leans were
Speaker 1: less than one thousand dollars each in day to nine,
Speaker 1: eleven and fifteen. And I assume she's worked out the difficulties.
Speaker 1: She's now making about three hundred and fifty thousand dollars
Speaker 1: a year. But much like shall we say, the difficulties
Speaker 1: of Lemon Kearney, I hope it's been resolved.
Speaker 2: I believe it's been I don't know.
Speaker 1: She's filed personal bankruptcy and she's the city manager in
Speaker 1: charge of a billion dollar budget.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 1: Bada booon, bada bing bata bang. I come up to
Speaker 1: current events. A few days ago, it was disclosed by
Speaker 1: someone in city Hall given to the news media me
Speaker 1: included and also A channel's five nine and nineteen that
Speaker 1: our current mayor, after a peer of all doesn't make
Speaker 1: car payments. The REPO man has visited after a Peer
Speaker 1: ofval On at least two occasions and popped his car.
Speaker 1: The REPO man showed up at city Hall and hooked
Speaker 1: up as Tesla in twenty twenty four and put it
Speaker 1: on the hook and hauled it away. Now it's kind
Speaker 1: of embarrassing. I think when the mayor of our city
Speaker 1: has his car repossessed, I think at least twice.
Speaker 2: So when that happened, that was quieted down. Not many
Speaker 2: people talked about it.
Speaker 1: Bought a boon ba ban bata bang because it didn't
Speaker 1: come to light until about a month ago. The day
Speaker 1: after the election, there was a repossession order issued against
Speaker 1: the mayor's twenty twenty three black Lincoln aviator, saying that
Speaker 1: repossessed the car because he's not making his payments. Now
Speaker 1: the inquir has a story on this, of course, and
Speaker 1: Kevines has written it is an opinion. The mayor says,
Speaker 1: quote last year, due to my carelessness and my auto
Speaker 1: pay on my car was not working and as a result,
Speaker 1: my car was repossessed. Since that time, I've been in
Speaker 1: possession of my car. I'm up to date on payments.
Speaker 1: I'm not aware of any other pending issues with the car. Well,
Speaker 1: what happened a month ago, November the fifth, when another
Speaker 1: repossession order was issued against a different car, And we're
Speaker 1: not sure about that either, Kevin Aldreys in the in
Speaker 1: Car goes on to say, Pure of All is not
Speaker 1: just any borrower trying to.
Speaker 2: Make ends meet.
Speaker 1: He's the mayor of a major American city responsible for
Speaker 1: overseeing a multi billion dollar budget. That job comes with
Speaker 1: high expectations of financial responsibility, just as important transparency when
Speaker 1: something goes wrong. The mayor essentially said, the dog ate
Speaker 1: my homework. That's my comment. The auto pay wasn't working
Speaker 1: doesn't really answer the question. Most repossessions involve days or
Speaker 1: months of begging someone to pay phone calls, text messages, emails,
Speaker 1: et cetera.
Speaker 2: And have to have pure of all.
Speaker 1: In twenty twenty four and now in December twenty five,
Speaker 1: it's not a person hard to find.
Speaker 3: You know where he is.
Speaker 1: That's how the first car was popped the repo man
Speaker 1: and this another car a year later is subject to
Speaker 1: another repossession. Leads me to conclude that the leaders of
Speaker 1: this city financially should not be in their present position.
Speaker 1: And the inquir goes on to say, it's hard to
Speaker 1: fathom how pure of all, who or whoever manages his
Speaker 1: finances missed all of the text messages, the mailed letters,
Speaker 1: the emails telling him you haven't made a car payment.
Speaker 1: It raises a different set of concerns about attention to
Speaker 1: detail and follow through. The out of pay story leaves
Speaker 1: more questions than answers. Doesn't make sense. So the three
Speaker 1: people in charge of our finances is number one, the
Speaker 1: city manager who's filed personal bankruptcy. Number two lemon Kearney,
Speaker 1: according to the Dayton Daily News, had about a million
Speaker 1: dollars in federal tax lines against her, and number three
Speaker 1: of the mayor who keeps getting his car repossessed the
Speaker 1: REPO man. Does this give you confidence the city is
Speaker 1: being well run financially? Then they pay eight point two
Speaker 1: million dollars to a bunch of protesters who were told
Speaker 1: dozens of times to leave the public streets, get off
Speaker 1: the sidewalks, you're going to be arrested. And after about
Speaker 1: ten or fifteen times they finally were arrested. They were
Speaker 1: held overnight and released. And now the city those financial
Speaker 1: advisors who filed bankruptcy and have cars repossessed, those people
Speaker 1: are now paying eight point two million dollars, two million
Speaker 1: dollars of which goes to ALFONSK. Hartstein, the ACLU attorney
Speaker 1: who's retired. Two million dollars to the attorney. And by
Speaker 1: the way, there's no better ACLU attorney that's ever existed,
Speaker 1: better than Alfonse co Hartstein. I had a case with
Speaker 1: him one time. That guy is good at what he does,
Speaker 1: but he's a big time lip. Shall we say, he's
Speaker 1: collecting two million dollars of your money and the rest
Speaker 1: of the six million go to the so called quote
Speaker 1: protesters are getting paid about seventeen thousand dollars each for protesting.
Speaker 1: The individuals making that decision are the ones that have
Speaker 1: filed bankruptcy.
Speaker 2: Do you have any confidence the city is financially well run?
Speaker 1: Raise your hand. I'm looking around. Do you think the
Speaker 1: city of Cincinnati?
Speaker 2: Where are we here? We are right there? Do you
Speaker 2: think the city of Cincinnati is being well run? Thank you?
Speaker 2: I agree.
Speaker 1: This is unbelievable. And when this money's were paid, John
Speaker 1: Cranley and Joe Dieters talked together. John Cranley said, let's
Speaker 1: lock them up. We don't have room in the jail.
Speaker 1: They were in a holding area. We'll let them all go.
Speaker 1: They were charged with misdemeanors of trespass which they obviously
Speaker 1: committed that act, and then released the next day. Now,
Speaker 1: they're getting paid, and the jurors to determine whether or
Speaker 1: not they should be paid anything would have been the
Speaker 1: jurors from southern Ohio, not just hamblin a county. Do
Speaker 1: you think the juror in Brown, Canon County, Adams County,
Speaker 1: Warren County, and Claremont County would have given these protesters
Speaker 1: eight point two million dollars? I don't think so. So,
Speaker 1: what in the hell is going around? Is happening in
Speaker 1: this place? Can you tell me what's going on? The
Speaker 1: mayor has his car popped, the city manager has filed bankruptcy,
Speaker 1: and the leader of council, according to the Dayton Daily
Speaker 1: News in twenty thirteen, going Forward, had won million dollars
Speaker 1: in tax lines against her, and they're the ones in charge.
Speaker 1: Do you see a problem? Now, let's continue with more
Speaker 1: coming up later. We have Congressman Warren Davidson, a good
Speaker 1: friend of Jeff Beckham's, and more and furthermore, more of
Speaker 1: my comments. And the city just elected the same crew
Speaker 1: by eighty some percent to keep it going. And a
Speaker 1: good police chief Fiji is fired. They're gonna have to
Speaker 1: pay her millions and pay Chief fire Chief Washington millions.
Speaker 1: Keep paying out millions in onions and millions by individuals
Speaker 1: like the mayor who says car repossessed twice, he spends
Speaker 1: more money on his hairdoo than on cars. Bill Cunningham
Speaker 1: News Radio seven hundred ww Kenyon All and one of
Speaker 1: the great representatives in the Congress's Warren Davidson up the
Speaker 1: state of Ohio. Have been there about ten years, graduated
Speaker 1: from Notre Dame, also at West Point Graduate and Congressman
Speaker 1: Warren Davidson. First of all, welcome again to the Bill
Speaker 1: Cunningham Show and Merry Christmas. And I want to get
Speaker 1: a military guy's perspective on the double tap that happened
Speaker 1: on these Narco terrorists and how unusual is it for
Speaker 1: that to occur. The admiral involved seems to be a
Speaker 1: platinum gold when it comes to ethics, values and morals.
Speaker 1: What he did was have out his side a jag lawyer,
Speaker 1: Department of Defense approving what he was doing. So how
Speaker 1: does a military man process what's happening in the Caribbean.
Speaker 4: Is very to see you and all your listeners as well.
Speaker 4: Thanks for having me on. And look, you know, when
Speaker 4: you think about the military, go back to George Washington
Speaker 4: on Christmas, they cross the Delaware and change the course
Speaker 4: of the revolution. So you know, we're here at a
Speaker 4: time where we've just remembered the day that lives in infamy,
Speaker 4: December seventh, and now we're moving moving forward. But you know,
Speaker 4: you look at the long legacy of our military. Look
Speaker 4: we the military. They take action when all the diplomacy fails. Right,
Speaker 4: we tried the asking nicely, we told them to stop,
Speaker 4: and now you have to make them stop bringing the
Speaker 4: drugs into our country. And so President Trump rightly declared
Speaker 4: the cartel's enemies of our country. They are clearly enemies
Speaker 4: of our country. They're killing Americans with this poison intentinal
Speaker 4: and all kinds of other horrific acts. And they're allied
Speaker 4: with people that are also part of a broader terror
Speaker 4: network in a broader terror fund system. So they're legitimate targets.
Speaker 4: There is an eminent threat to Americans, and so they've
Speaker 4: gone through all that. Then when you go to target it,
Speaker 4: they intended to kill the people on the boat and
Speaker 4: sink the boat. Right, They want to kill they want
Speaker 4: to take out everything about that boat. And the idea
Speaker 4: that well you only get one shot at it is crazy.
Speaker 4: Now They've tried all kinds of word parsing to get
Speaker 4: around the fact. The root issue is they don't want
Speaker 4: to take out the cartels. I mean, at the end
Speaker 4: of the day, they've been the great Democrats have been
Speaker 4: the greatest thing ever for the cartels. When Donald Trump
Speaker 4: was president number forty five, the cartels were making money
Speaker 4: trafficking people across the southern border. The New York Times
Speaker 4: estimated about five hundred thousand dollars a year. But with
Speaker 4: two years into the Biden administration, the New York Times
Speaker 4: Hardly a friend of ours says that the cartels were
Speaker 4: making over thirteen billion dollars a year just trafficking the
Speaker 4: people exploiting them, among them tens of thousands of unaccompanied miners,
Speaker 4: many of whom the Trump administration have recovered. So these
Speaker 4: these are horrible Democrats don't want to stop the cartels.
Speaker 4: They've designed policy after policy that helps the cartels. And
Speaker 4: so now they're out there like, well, you can't come
Speaker 4: back and try to kill them a second time. They
Speaker 4: were stranded on a boat that was going to sink
Speaker 4: and you had to go rescue them, Well, no, you don't.
Speaker 4: Now if they were defenseless and floating in the water
Speaker 4: trying to survive and get to shore. There is a
Speaker 4: shipwreck provision in the law of armed conflicts, and that
Speaker 4: did in fact happen. If you recall, there were two
Speaker 4: people that were rescued by our military and our Coastguard.
Speaker 4: They were returned to their country of origin.
Speaker 2: Now I think they.
Speaker 4: Should have been extra died and prosecuted. I mean they
Speaker 4: were in the act of something else. Get Mos a
Speaker 4: great fitting place underutilized these days, and you could have
Speaker 4: taken them there and just made it clear like, no,
Speaker 4: you don't get a free pass for trying to do
Speaker 4: this to our country. But that's the kind of lay
Speaker 4: of the land right now as I see it.
Speaker 1: Well, we have many examples in the past of sinking
Speaker 1: a disabled enemy vessel, even when carrying a wounded personnel,
Speaker 1: at a standard naval practice for generations. I saw this
Speaker 1: story on the History Channel, which I love watching, and
Speaker 1: the commentator that made the remarks during the Battle of Midway,
Speaker 1: one of the Japanese carriers that was blue up was
Speaker 1: burning dead in the water, no longer able to fight
Speaker 1: or launch aircraft, but it was full of injured, dead
Speaker 1: and dying Japanese soldiers. To the tune of several hundred.
Speaker 1: And you know, you know what we did, Congressman. We
Speaker 1: kept throwing torpedoes into the ship until it was at
Speaker 1: the bottom of the ocean.
Speaker 2: And that was lawful.
Speaker 1: And so there were hundreds of wounded Japanese of the
Speaker 1: Imperial Navy we put to the bottom of the Pacific
Speaker 1: because they were on an aircraft carrier likely to sink
Speaker 1: and disabled enemy vessel. Everyone caring when the personnel has
Speaker 1: been standard naval practice for generations and consistent with the
Speaker 1: law of the armed conflict of the sea, not to
Speaker 1: directly kill those men, but to take the ship to
Speaker 1: the bottom of the ocean.
Speaker 2: And what happens happens, you know what I'm saying, Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 4: And look, we've got colleagues, frankly Republicans in intercrafts that
Speaker 4: are out there like, well, you know, you can't just
Speaker 4: give a death penalty to these guys. They're trafficking drugs.
Speaker 4: It's not a capital offense. Look, you don't send in
Speaker 4: the military to read Miranda rights people, right. The military
Speaker 4: action is not you know, police action, right. It is
Speaker 4: not like, oh, well, we're going to send them out
Speaker 4: with you know, tasers and flex cuffs and bring them
Speaker 4: all in for questioning. The military is diplomacy failed. You
Speaker 4: should have negotiated, you should have complied, and we told
Speaker 4: you and you didn't, And now we're going to make
Speaker 4: you stop posing a threat to our country.
Speaker 3: And the stronger and more.
Speaker 4: Focused our military is, the more effective our state department
Speaker 4: can be, the more effective our homeland security department can be,
Speaker 4: the more secure our border can be. And these are
Speaker 4: the objectives, and that's the root of it. People at
Speaker 4: the end of the day don't want the border secure,
Speaker 4: They don't want the black market closed off, and they
Speaker 4: want to military that isn't designed to fight and win
Speaker 4: decisive battles. They want these nebulous continue on forever. I mean,
Speaker 4: these are the same kind of people that sent the
Speaker 4: JAG officers over to say, well, you know, you were
Speaker 4: trying to kill this guy over in Afghanistan before, but
Speaker 4: now you can't really kill him. You know, you could
Speaker 4: kill him over here, but you can't kill him there.
Speaker 4: And yeah, it looks like he's putting an id out there,
Speaker 4: but you got to wait until you take direct fire
Speaker 4: from somebody. These are the stupidest things that they come
Speaker 4: up with. They need to stay the heck away from
Speaker 4: the warriors that are out there doing what needs to
Speaker 4: be done to defend our country.
Speaker 1: And you may have recalled during that disastrous leaving of
Speaker 1: Kabbo Afghanistan, the desertion of our duties ordered by Joe Biden.
Speaker 1: He sent drones over to take out a couple of
Speaker 1: white trucks that had eight children and four women inside
Speaker 1: the trucks. It was the goal was to kill a
Speaker 1: couple of terrorists. They might have killed a couple of terrorists,
Speaker 1: but they killed about eight children and four women in
Speaker 1: the process. And the Democrats did not raise his think
Speaker 1: at all, did they.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they Saint Obama to them, right, I mean, he
Speaker 4: could do no wrong. Everything was great, even when he
Speaker 4: killed an American who was like sixteen. And I'm not complaining.
Speaker 4: I think, you know, this guy had made himself an
Speaker 4: enemy of our country. You know, there were a lot
Speaker 4: of smarter ways to wage the war on Terror, and
Speaker 4: there's been very little accountability for those people that waged it.
Speaker 4: But it's been disappointing watch veterans, you know, particularly some
Speaker 4: of these guys who who were part of the reason
Speaker 4: we were not succeeding in the war they're anxious to
Speaker 4: hold everybody in the lower ranks accountable all day, but
Speaker 4: there's never any accountability for the generals. And now they're
Speaker 4: out there commentating from the side, trying to tear down
Speaker 4: peak headseth and note that all it appears to be
Speaker 4: well coordinated. Right So, right after the Seditious six go
Speaker 4: out and release their video about this, the whole media
Speaker 4: thing comes in. So you know, there wasn't like some
Speaker 4: naive set of coincidences. I do believe their coincidences, that
Speaker 4: video was not one of them. This is a coordinated operation,
Speaker 4: and it's designed to sow discord and dissent within our militaries,
Speaker 4: designed to undermine the current chain of command and weaken
Speaker 4: our country. It's horrendous that this is even going on,
Speaker 4: and it's even more horrendous to me that it's being
Speaker 4: tolerated and talked about out seriously.
Speaker 3: Well.
Speaker 1: On another issue, sometime in a week or so, the
Speaker 1: Senate is going to take up they agree to take
Speaker 1: up and have a vote on the extension of Obamacare.
Speaker 1: Can you briefly describe what was promised by Obamacare in
Speaker 1: the beginning, how it turned out, and why I would
Speaker 1: anticipate you think a wooden stake needs to go into
Speaker 1: the heart of Obamacare.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, of course, it's called the Affordable Care Act,
Speaker 4: and the Obama branded it, and the whole promise was
Speaker 4: that it would make health care more affordable.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 4: It obviously hasn't succeeded in that. No, I won't say
Speaker 4: there were nothing out of it that came to be effective.
Speaker 4: I mean, now you can keep your kids on your
Speaker 4: plan until they're twenty six. If you get like a
Speaker 4: family plan, you've got a way to cover pre existing
Speaker 4: conditions and things like that where people found themselves kind
Speaker 4: of locked out.
Speaker 2: Of access to healthcare.
Speaker 4: So that those are things that are broadly bipartisan and supported.
Speaker 4: And even when Republicans were trying to perform this back
Speaker 4: in twenty seventeen, there were things that were preserved. But
Speaker 4: what fundamentally they do is there of the As Obamacare
Speaker 4: continued to fail in twenty one, they decided, you know,
Speaker 4: we need more subsidies to go to bail out the
Speaker 4: Obamacare and cover for the fact that it's failing. And
Speaker 4: they came up with has to be like the dumbest idea,
Speaker 4: which is, let's give the subsidies direct to the health
Speaker 4: insurance companies. Now, you know, if you would give it
Speaker 4: to the doctors or hospitals, I mean, that might make sense.
Speaker 3: If you give it to the people who owe the.
Speaker 4: Hospital and doctor bills, that would make sense. But why
Speaker 4: would you give it to a middleman, particularly one that
Speaker 4: performance hasn't been good. I mean, in spite of all
Speaker 4: the subsidies, they didn't keep health care affordable. Now, their
Speaker 4: profit margins have been phenomenal, their share prices have done great.
Speaker 4: In one of the top performing ETFs out there is
Speaker 4: a healthcare ETF has just been predictable as can be,
Speaker 4: soaring since Obamacare started pouring cash into the health insurance companies.
Speaker 4: But people are still getting double digit increases. They're still
Speaker 4: being out of pocket max rays, still being denied claims,
Speaker 4: still being told, oh, that was out of network, all
Speaker 4: kinds of terrible service. People can't stand the health insurance company,
Speaker 4: even though they might say, you know, I had great
Speaker 4: doctors and nurses, and the technology is great and everything else.
Speaker 4: The medical building process has been a disaster, and so
Speaker 4: instead of fixing that, Democrats want to continue to hide
Speaker 4: the failure of Obamacare and pretend that it's great with
Speaker 4: more subsidies. And so that's the challenge right here. And
Speaker 4: I think, you know, kudos to President Trump because he's
Speaker 4: talked about you know, health freedom accounts where the money would.
Speaker 2: Go directly to individuals.
Speaker 4: Yes, and you know, if you're going to subsidize something,
Speaker 4: that would be way smarter way to do it, and
Speaker 4: it would ultimately help reorient healthcare as the user is
Speaker 4: the person that pays for it, and then it could
Speaker 4: actually have function more like a market so that it
Speaker 4: would actually hold prices down and in at least increase service.
Speaker 4: If if you're going to have it out there, I mean,
Speaker 4: you know, they don't respond to the consumer in the
Speaker 4: current model.
Speaker 1: And Congressman, I think Republicans do a bad job at
Speaker 1: pr And in this case, the average person thinks, somehow
Speaker 1: Republicans want to take away healthcare, when in reality, Republicans
Speaker 1: want quality healthcare centered around the patient, and the Democrats
Speaker 1: want to give billions of dollars to the insurance companies
Speaker 1: who then screw the patients and get campaign donations back.
Speaker 1: If you would ask the average person living in this
Speaker 1: country who wants to provide healthcare at little expense, the
Speaker 1: answer would probably be the Democratic Party. But The average
Speaker 1: person doesn't understand that Obamacare gives subsidies directly to insurance
Speaker 1: companies hoping they hold down costs. They're not incentivized to
Speaker 1: do so, and they don't. Plus, some of the deductibilities
Speaker 1: are five to ten thousand dollars for each person you're
Speaker 1: out of network. The thing is collapsed and it's failed.
Speaker 1: Why should you subsidize a failure? And Obamacare is a failure,
Speaker 1: And so at some point the House may have to
Speaker 1: vote on this thing. How would you vote in a
Speaker 1: week or two?
Speaker 4: Well, look, I'm against just continuing the status quo of
Speaker 4: more subsidies for a failed plan.
Speaker 2: I mean, this is a crazy idea.
Speaker 4: And look, I will say Democrats, they've been sort of
Speaker 4: dancing to the same sheet music for a long time.
Speaker 4: They love Obamacare, and they wanted it as a gateway
Speaker 4: drug to get single payer, you know, socialist healthcare where
Speaker 4: the government runs everything. I mean, some of them want
Speaker 4: a true national system where the doctors and hospitals are
Speaker 4: operated by.
Speaker 2: The government too. That's really vacare for all.
Speaker 4: And while the VA has moved a lot in the
Speaker 4: right direction since Trump's first term, and a lot of
Speaker 4: good reform packages, I mean, you don't have the same
Speaker 4: kinds of problems in a lot of our private sector
Speaker 4: hospitals that you've had in VA with you know, veteran care.
Speaker 4: So I don't think that's something should be replicated for everybody.
Speaker 4: What we should do is continue to do the part
Speaker 4: that works. Most Americans get their insurance to their employer.
Speaker 4: They're pretty happy with it. And the trouble is is
Speaker 4: that it works fine if you get a job at
Speaker 4: Procter and Gamble or something, a huge employer, and they
Speaker 4: have great plans and everything else like that, they're a
Speaker 4: great company. But if you look at a small business
Speaker 4: you get twenty employees, one person gets cancer, they want
Speaker 4: to spread that risk over twenty people. Well, that doesn't
Speaker 4: share the risk pool big enough. So part of the
Speaker 4: reforms that Republicans had was to put the high cost
Speaker 4: to insured a high risk pool. That would take that
Speaker 4: out of the insurance market, so the Medicaid dollars would
Speaker 4: go to that. Then regular health insurance would have less.
Speaker 4: Some of the five or ten most expensive things wouldn't
Speaker 4: even have to be covered by anybody, they'd be so
Speaker 4: that would be the subsidy and it would go to
Speaker 4: treat these things that are just super expensive to treat
Speaker 4: and normal health care, normal access to health care for
Speaker 4: your common conditions. People you know, have a baby and
Speaker 4: you know, want to want to do maternity and all
Speaker 4: this stuff. Those kinds of things would would be lower
Speaker 4: because you're not subsidizing the super high expensive stuff they're
Speaker 4: because you're doing cancer treatments with the same twenty employees, right,
Speaker 4: And so changing that risk model is are things that
Speaker 4: aren't sexy, they aren't flashy, they don't mark it well,
Speaker 4: but they really do lower costs. And so those are
Speaker 4: the kinds of things we have to do. And I
Speaker 4: think you know President Trump's onto something is if you
Speaker 4: do want to extend the subsidies, let's make sure we
Speaker 4: send them money to the people and let them buy
Speaker 4: the plan they want.
Speaker 2: That's the other thing.
Speaker 4: Obamacare mandated that everybody has to have a standard package
Speaker 4: of insurance, so you couldn't customize it anymore. And you know,
Speaker 4: you look at some of the advertisers on TV. They've
Speaker 4: made a mint talking about, well, customize it by the
Speaker 4: things you want from your car, your home or everything else.
Speaker 2: But when it comes to healthcare, you can't do that.
Speaker 3: You got to buy the whole package.
Speaker 1: I don't need transgender services care, I don't need all
Speaker 1: kind of stuff, and I buy want to have the
Speaker 1: insurance that fits my needs at this particular point. And
Speaker 1: one size does fit all, and that spreads the premiums
Speaker 1: over a large group of people that none of whom
Speaker 1: need the care for some of the things that have
Speaker 1: been ordered. Well, Congressman Warren Davids and we got to go.
Speaker 1: The affordability crisis is here, and it is caused by
Speaker 1: the policies of the Democrat Party, and instead of taking
Speaker 1: responsibility for it, they want to make things more unaffordable,
Speaker 1: such as rents, utility expenses, and healthcare costs. And I

Speaker 1: The Great American This morning as a trial schedule involving
Speaker 1: City of Cincinnati versus Alex Chavinski.
Speaker 2: His attorney's joining us now.
Speaker 1: Doug Brannon, I think on his way back to Dayton
Speaker 1: and attorney Doug Brannon, what happened this morning in Hamony
Speaker 1: County Municipal Court.
Speaker 10: You know, ultimately Bill, the case guy continued to do
Speaker 10: jury trials could be January twelve. The state made a
Speaker 10: great disclosure of a witness. Come to find out, this
Speaker 10: witness has an extensive felony history that wasn't disposed to
Speaker 10: us as well. We want some time of book into that.
Speaker 10: And in addition to that, aparently the FBI had a
Speaker 10: competation department that was there that he needed to describe,
Speaker 10: called it a simulated wap, not an actual slap from
Speaker 10: Alex Stravinsky that this is what they're playting is the
Speaker 10: criminal contents. So this is expectatory evidence that wasn't produced
Speaker 10: in a tightening passion working at continue as the bechinnion.
Speaker 1: So this morning you were told for the first time
Speaker 1: the city was going to use a witness against your client.
Speaker 1: And because they just told you this morning about this
Speaker 1: new witness, she didn't have time to research the fact
Speaker 1: who is this guy? And the witness state is closed
Speaker 1: has multiple criminal convections?
Speaker 2: Is that correct?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 10: And to be fair, Phil, the witness wasn't disclosed until
Speaker 10: they ended business on Friday. You know, he were able
Speaker 10: to find some of his criminal convictions, didn't know anything
Speaker 10: else about what he made or may not justify to
Speaker 10: his store Dorut place was provided about the witness, but
Speaker 10: certainly weren't his primo background as well as what he
Speaker 10: would testify to. Uh So he needed the court continued
Speaker 10: the trial so that we had a pure opportunity and
Speaker 10: to review the additional discovery that was provided an investment at.
Speaker 1: Here we are in December the eighth. This event took
Speaker 1: place July July twenty sixth. Why didn't the city disclose
Speaker 1: this witness to you until Friday at the close of business?
Speaker 1: What's the reason for not disclosing it to to say
Speaker 1: it was recently discovered or that they simply were somewhat recalcitrant.
Speaker 10: I never got a good explanation why this information wasn't
Speaker 10: provided until Friday eight about four forty close of business.
Speaker 10: But nonetheless it was produced very last minute, working and
Speaker 10: continuous to the case. But we are looking more to
Speaker 10: trying this case. Our Jameenbridge, welcome this port.
Speaker 1: I made a wild guest at an M four involving
Speaker 1: Cincinni police, many of them support your version of the
Speaker 1: facts will never go to trial because the city's not
Speaker 1: that stupid to put them on trial. Do you have
Speaker 1: any indication they're going to dismissed the case. There's no,
Speaker 1: there's no lesser offense below an M four other than
Speaker 1: an MM. But nonetheless, Uh, have they offered a deal
Speaker 1: to you of any type to not sue the city
Speaker 1: if you get something in exchange.
Speaker 10: Leave not engaged in any lee negotiations with the city
Speaker 10: and reviews to do so. PEOP will try this case
Speaker 10: to a jury. Uh, you know, and we plan on
Speaker 10: calling the detectives involved in this case. The death, therey,
Speaker 10: the games is police.
Speaker 1: You know many times, as you know, Doug Brannon, it
Speaker 1: is not the defense to call the police to support
Speaker 1: their version of the facts normally.
Speaker 2: Is the opposite?
Speaker 1: Is it true that you have so painted uh since
Speaker 1: night police officers to testify on behalf of your client.
Speaker 10: Well, these are these are turistical detectives wanting to do
Speaker 10: the right thing and are not pulling it much for
Speaker 10: the city. I think that they're going to playing your
Speaker 10: trial and I think in that for it is going
Speaker 10: to exonerate Alex of these focus charges, uh, disorderly contract.
Speaker 1: Somewhat unusual, so Defense Council as issues of penis for
Speaker 1: the detectives who investigated the case of Alex Stravinsky. And
Speaker 1: is it true that the detectives who have spent hours,
Speaker 1: according to the FOP hundreds of hours investigating this assault
Speaker 1: on July twenty sixth that during the music festival that
Speaker 1: these detectives said, do not file criminal charges against Alex Chevinsky?
Speaker 2: Is that true?
Speaker 10: You know, East de Techers has put a lot of
Speaker 10: work into this case. I think that they done some
Speaker 10: very good work. They put it were able to identify
Speaker 10: almost all of these suspects the committees heet us acts.
Speaker 10: And you know, I don't believe that they think that
Speaker 10: el s. Robsky did anything honk here and neither do I.
Speaker 10: That's why we're going to trot.
Speaker 2: And you also made reference to a CI from the FBI.
Speaker 2: Can you put some more bones on this confidential informant?
Speaker 10: Well, it would appear from the information that I've been
Speaker 10: provided that there was a confidential afortman investigating the same
Speaker 10: crew for probably related affectsus, the same crew that attacked
Speaker 10: Alex and all his friends that evening. I mean, it's
Speaker 10: clear this is an almost criminal gain activity that is
Speaker 10: what went down that day?
Speaker 2: Did they disclose this to you before before Friday?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 10: The FBI confidential informal information was not disclosed until late
Speaker 10: on Friday as well.
Speaker 2: Can you can you come up with a reason for that?
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 10: I can't speak for why the city did not produce
Speaker 10: this information earlier or to they plan on bringing the
Speaker 10: trial earlier. All I can do is the actors lobster
Speaker 10: their late disposures.
Speaker 2: A couple more quick questions. I know you're busy.
Speaker 1: Is it true that the investigating detectives and the Chief
Speaker 1: of Police Fiji uh and others in the police chance
Speaker 1: and command would not file these criminal charges? And that
Speaker 1: Captain now acting Chief Adam Henny is the one who
Speaker 1: was told to do so by Emily smart Warner, who's
Speaker 1: the city solicitor.
Speaker 10: Well, that's the answer to a question that I plan
Speaker 10: on getting it prial on January.
Speaker 1: Twelve, Bill, wouldn't it be someone unusual if the detectives
Speaker 1: investigating a crime and the chief of police would not
Speaker 1: file criminal charges, but over their head, the political powers
Speaker 1: at City Hall ordered criminal charges against the innocent person.
Speaker 1: According to one of the news conferences, because of the
Speaker 1: color of his skin. Would that be someone unusual, it would.
Speaker 10: Be highway and for a politician to get involved in
Speaker 10: ordering who should and shouldn't be charged from an incident. Obviously,
Speaker 10: the black community at Cincinnati was demanding this. There were
Speaker 10: some CIDY officials that are supported by those people. This
Speaker 10: seemed to have possibly acted in this case. But I'm
Speaker 10: going to get answers to under oath to these same
Speaker 10: questions trial on January twelve, when they put these people
Speaker 10: on the witness.
Speaker 1: See, you had told me earlier on the air that
Speaker 1: the Federal Authorities Civil Rights Division of the Department of
Speaker 1: Justice is looking at looking at this case as racial
Speaker 1: discrimination against Alex Schravinsky, your client. Is that still is
Speaker 1: that investigation ongoing to the best of your knowledge, Yeah.
Speaker 10: And resst of my knowledge, the FBI are still involved
Speaker 10: in the case, and that that investigation is still ongoing.
Speaker 10: But so far we're not aware of any filings by
Speaker 10: the Better Old.
Speaker 1: Order, and that would be against the civil leaders of
Speaker 1: the city of Cincinnati.
Speaker 2: Correct.
Speaker 10: I'm not sure exactly what they're investigating, but they are
Speaker 10: still involved in this case to my knowledgy.
Speaker 1: And lastly about your civil rights lawsuit as far as
Speaker 1: charging someone based upon the color of their skin and
Speaker 1: using under A nineteen eighty forty two USC.
Speaker 2: Nineteen eighty three civil rights violations.
Speaker 1: And that's a civil matter in which you're going to
Speaker 1: seek money damages from the City of Cincinnati.
Speaker 10: When will that lawsuit be filed. Well, we're going to
Speaker 10: try the case against Alex Stravinsky. First exonerate him, and
Speaker 10: then we will based upon some of the testimony that
Speaker 10: is derived from that trial maet decisions about whether or
Speaker 10: not we are pursuing civil cases against certain officials within
Speaker 10: the city of incidact.
Speaker 1: They're handing out eight point two million dollars to criminal protesters.
Speaker 1: I can only imagine what this case is worth. And
Speaker 1: I'm still willing to make a prediction, Doug Brannon that
Speaker 1: somehow the city will not want their command officers under
Speaker 1: oath talking about conversations between them and the mayor, between
Speaker 1: them and the city manager, between them and Emily smart Warner.
Speaker 1: I'm willing to predict they don't want any of this public.
Speaker 10: Would you agree, Well, so far they seem to be
Speaker 10: willing to go to trial on it, So let's play
Speaker 10: along and let's see what they'd have to say.
Speaker 2: Doug Brandon, the trial date next is what January the twelfth.
Speaker 10: January twelve, we will be back in court on Alex's
Speaker 10: case and we do expect a jury trial to move forward.
Speaker 2: Well, God bless you and God bless America. Doug, thank
Speaker 2: you very much. Thanks though you take care of God
Speaker 2: bless you. Let's continue the more. Let's continue with more.
Speaker 1: That this arose because after a thorough, complete investigation by
Speaker 1: a good police agency, they recommended that no charges be
Speaker 1: fouled against Alex Schravinsky. And then the civil authorities in
Speaker 1: charge of the city, who is the mayor, the city
Speaker 1: manager Emily Smartwarner and Vice Mayor Michelle lemon Kearney, demanded
Speaker 1: that a white person be charged with a crime because
Speaker 1: the black community demanded it, and it happened. So the
Speaker 1: power of the criminal justice system was turned against a
Speaker 1: person because of the color of their skin. That's why
Speaker 1: the Department of Justice is looking into charges against the
Speaker 1: civil authorities that run the city of Cincinnati. Later on
Speaker 1: would be the money, damages and more. How ridiculous. Bill Cunningham,
Speaker 1: News Radio seven hundred. I know it's been a few
Speaker 1: months since the end of July July twenty sixth, when
Speaker 1: the beatdown took place on Elm Street during the music festival,
Speaker 1: and a lot of the knowledge that we have five
Speaker 1: six months later have been lost. You go back in
Speaker 1: time just a little bit. This was about three o'clock
Speaker 1: in the morning. There were numerous videos of every description
Speaker 1: that were available then and have been reviewed constantly by
Speaker 1: the police to say, okay, what happened. Unlike many crimes
Speaker 1: that are committed, seldom committed on video. And in fact,
Speaker 1: I would say that the beatdown of Holly and Alex
Speaker 1: Stravinsky and others only occurred the fallout because it was
Speaker 1: on video. These things probably happen on a regular basis,
Speaker 1: but unless it's recorded, unless it's on video, gets to television,
Speaker 1: gets to radio, get to the print. Inquire that it's
Speaker 1: like a tree falling in the forest, nobody hears it.
Speaker 1: So it didn't occur because it's videoed and went national
Speaker 1: and I made sure with Bill Hammer and Sean Hannity
Speaker 1: and went national that okay, now that's getting some scrutiny.
Speaker 2: And the city like it.
Speaker 1: So what happened is that the police had all the
Speaker 1: videos early on, according to the FOP, and the two
Speaker 1: detectives involved in the case spent hundreds of hours over
Speaker 1: a several week period reviewing all the videos because they
Speaker 1: were under pressure to charge quote, white people with crime.
Speaker 1: It was quote the black community wanted it. I think
Speaker 1: most black folks want justice and don't want a racial outcome,
Speaker 1: but I regress. And so when the criminal charges were
Speaker 1: filed against the six or seven main perpetrators who treated
Speaker 1: human beings heads like there were soccer balls, there was
Speaker 1: an outcry, according to some of the politicians in town,
Speaker 1: that the black community demanded that the person who instigated
Speaker 1: it or started it, not being according to according to them,
Speaker 1: Alex Shrevinsky also be charged. So the serious charges were
Speaker 1: filed against six or seven individuals, and a big news
Speaker 1: conference was held and with Scottie Johnson and lemon Kearney
Speaker 1: and the civil rights crowd all showed up to demand
Speaker 1: that a white person be charged, the white person that
Speaker 1: started at all.
Speaker 2: But there was a problem.
Speaker 1: The detectives in the case, to whom will testify on
Speaker 1: behalf of the defendant that they had videotape before the
Speaker 1: so called slap that indicated that the major perpetrators had
Speaker 1: started the process before Alex slapped anybody. So there was proof,
Speaker 1: video proofed that's been playing on five, nine, twelve, and nineteen,
Speaker 1: in which you can look at in which the so
Speaker 1: called major criminal defendants beat on Alex Ravinsky, and that
Speaker 1: his so called slap about ten seconds later was trying
Speaker 1: to get the main perpetrators off him. So the case
Speaker 1: fell apart. But however, having walked down the road of
Speaker 1: racial justice, the lemon Kearneys and the Scottie Johnson's Mika
Speaker 1: Owens could not unring the bell. They continue to maintain,
Speaker 1: quote a white person should be charged. So the order
Speaker 1: came down from on high. Okay, charge Alex Stravinsky with
Speaker 1: this orderly conduct, making an M four which is thirty
Speaker 1: days in jail, two hundred and fifty dollars fine. He
Speaker 1: was the guy had the crap beat at him. He
Speaker 1: was a victim, not a perpetrator. So the two detectives
Speaker 1: got the word charge Alex Stravinsky with a DC. They said,
Speaker 1: no way, Jose, I'm not putting my name on an
Speaker 1: affidavit touring under oath that guy committed a crime when
Speaker 1: I know he didn't commit a crime. So now the
Speaker 1: city had a problem the elections coming up. Racial justice
Speaker 1: must be served, according to Alex. According to Scotti Johnson
Speaker 1: A Lemon Kearney, a white person had to be charged,
Speaker 1: but the black community wanted a white person charged, and
Speaker 1: so much like in the Saturday Night massacre, the investigators,
Speaker 1: the cops, the detectives wouldn't do it. The chief of
Speaker 1: police wouldn't do it. So it went up to the
Speaker 1: Mayor's office to f TB. Pirival who has had his
Speaker 1: cars repossessed, and then down to share along. Then it
Speaker 1: came down to Emily smart Warner, who's the solicitor of
Speaker 1: the city, ordering that these charges be filed. One cop
Speaker 1: stepped up. That was Captain Adam Henny, who's now the
Speaker 1: acting chief, who did not investigate the case, and he said,
Speaker 1: I'll follow the charge to protect my guys. He did
Speaker 1: not want the guys under him to be disciplined in
Speaker 1: some way or have their careers affected by demanding they
Speaker 1: commit perjury by filing an affidavit about factual conditions in
Speaker 1: their mind that did not exist. So Captain Adam Henny
Speaker 1: did what the mayor and the city manager, the civil
Speaker 1: authorities demanded to occur, which is charging a white person
Speaker 1: with a crime. Set for trial today, December the eighth,
Speaker 1: the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, by the way, and
Speaker 1: now it's been continued January twelfth. This case been penning
Speaker 1: for months in the city Solicitor's office, it's in the
Speaker 1: county prosecutor, mister Manner. City solicitor has to provide to
Speaker 1: the defendant all the witnesses to be used at trial
Speaker 1: in a good fashion, so that there's enough research done
Speaker 1: on the witnesses, so the defense is prepared to cross examined.
Speaker 1: But the City Prosecutor's office waited after the close of
Speaker 1: business on Friday to disclose that there may be a CI,
Speaker 1: a confidential informant working the city who can testify as
Speaker 1: to what he saw. But the videotape says it all,
Speaker 1: doesn't it. Plus that there's another witness who is a
Speaker 1: lengthy criminal record that the city wanted to use, and
Speaker 1: they didn't disclose it till close a business on Friday,
Speaker 1: all of which is wrong. You've got to give someone
Speaker 1: defense council generally thirty days notice who you want to
Speaker 1: use a trial, and it didn't happen. So now the
Speaker 1: city's between a rock and a hard place, because the
Speaker 1: city wants to proceed against Stravinsky, but the department of
Speaker 1: Justice Civil Rights Division doesn't like the idea of the
Speaker 1: mayor and the city solicitor of a major American city
Speaker 1: demanding that a person be charged with a crime because
Speaker 1: of their race. Democrats wanted to fuel racial strife to
Speaker 1: get votes with the election coming up. And the Democrats
Speaker 1: are generally at the roots of this nation's racial divide.
Speaker 1: And it's long been not the case. And in Alabama
Speaker 1: in the fifties and sixties, the Democrats demand that the
Speaker 1: black people be charged. Now the Democrats in the cities
Speaker 1: now demand that the white person be charged irrespective of
Speaker 1: the facts.
Speaker 2: Can you smell what I'm cooking? Bill Cunningham, this radio
Speaker 2: seven hundred w kill them? You know they're going to
Speaker 2: be like dead. Okay, hello, quiets, I'm broadcasting.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 2: I hate to bring up some of these things. Uh
Speaker 2: segment brought it up early. That's a big question. You
Speaker 2: give it to me. There's a lot going on a
Speaker 2: weekend for the rockster. Saint X goes down hard.
Speaker 8: They played hard, they were close, but you know, got
Speaker 8: behind early and then you got your you're the bad
Speaker 8: call bottle.
Speaker 2: I want to bring it up.
Speaker 8: It's third and long and the guy just throws Levi
Speaker 8: Davis throws up a pass that Kingdom come and the
Speaker 8: guy catches it, but his one foot, like three quarters
Speaker 8: of his.
Speaker 2: Foot was out of bounce. How do you miss that?
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 8: But nevertheless they goes down hard.
Speaker 2: You're won the game. Great fan basketball with Wes Miller.
Speaker 2: Great fan.
Speaker 1: Uh Catino is bathed now in the deep blue waters
Speaker 1: of Xavier basketball throwing and you got your favorite team,
Speaker 1: the Bengals. Josh Allen's running like a male buffalo in
Speaker 1: the ranges of Wyoming.
Speaker 2: Then the cherry on top of it is.
Speaker 1: Then on Sunday, about noon, we got a report that
Speaker 1: Notre Dame. Notre Dame is not in the cf P.
Speaker 1: They're done, They're over now, they're urinated off. They're not
Speaker 1: going to the toilet Bowl to play the Mormons. Joe
Speaker 1: Frederick was unhappy. Joe was gonna do T shirts Mormons
Speaker 1: versus the Catholics. That was going to be the bat
Speaker 1: Let me lay.
Speaker 8: Should have made the playoffs and then all lay out
Speaker 8: of case for why they may have been justified in
Speaker 8: staying out of the Bulls. Number one one, okay, start
Speaker 8: off zero to two, okay, But they lost those those
Speaker 8: two games by a combined four points. Okay, one was
Speaker 8: on a botched extra point. If they get that, they
Speaker 8: likely go and beat Texas a andely. But then they
Speaker 8: rattle off ten game win streak where they beat each
Speaker 8: team by an average of thirty points. Say, okay, say
Speaker 8: that again. How much ten straight victories? Average win was
Speaker 8: by thirty points. So they were blowing teams out of
Speaker 8: the waters.
Speaker 2: But can a team evolve? Can a team like get better?
Speaker 8: They start off the season with a brand new quarterback,
Speaker 8: three new offensive linemen. By the way, Alabama gets beat
Speaker 8: Okay by twenty one points where they had minus three
Speaker 8: rush yards, give them their third loss of the season,
Speaker 8: and they're going to the playoff.
Speaker 2: Are you kidding?
Speaker 1: Deserve to go to the playoffs minus three yards? Yesh, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's impossible. So you're saying Notre Dame was screwed blue.
Speaker 8: For five weeks the committee had Notre Dame ranked above Miami.
Speaker 8: Then in the final week, no, no, we'll flip it.
Speaker 8: So what is the point of doing the rankings each
Speaker 8: week if they hold no regard it should it should
Speaker 8: evolve into something name didn't lose.
Speaker 2: You're making excuses. I'm not making.
Speaker 8: If no name was in the tournament. Okay, they would
Speaker 8: be a top they would be a top three favorite
Speaker 8: to win.
Speaker 2: The whole thing isn't James Madison's just a great football
Speaker 2: to make that makes sense.
Speaker 8: Now, I'm all for the little guy getting a shot,
Speaker 8: But James Madison Twulane are in the playoff and Notre
Speaker 8: Dame is not about Holly.
Speaker 2: Vanderbilt is not Texas is not.
Speaker 1: About Holly Madison. What about our cupcakes? I'm just saying,
Speaker 1: who had a who had a worst weekend? Let me
Speaker 1: give you give you four names?
Speaker 2: All right? You got Zach Shula.
Speaker 1: Okay, head coach of your Bengals, got Wes Miller of
Speaker 1: the UC Bearcats, Scott Saderfield and football Bearcats.
Speaker 2: And then Bill Belichick.
Speaker 8: Say it's for worst weekend? How about can you have
Speaker 8: a rocky boymen that list?
Speaker 2: You lost everything? But can I make a case?
Speaker 8: Can I make a case for an because I was like,
Speaker 8: they don't want to play a game, They're taking their
Speaker 8: ball and going home. Which look, let me start the
Speaker 8: argument by saying, I think if at this stage in
Speaker 8: your life you play football, you're a football player. That's
Speaker 8: what you should do. You should play football, right, they
Speaker 8: should you should want to play in that game. But
Speaker 8: I'm saying the times have changed. Okay that that you know,
Speaker 8: all the all the conversation at that we have at
Speaker 8: ESPN the entire year is who's going to make the
Speaker 8: playoffs in August. It's about who's gonna make a playoff.
Speaker 8: Do we ever talk about, boy, who's tracking to make
Speaker 8: the Liberty Bowl this year? No, it's never the conversation.
Speaker 8: So the fans, the players, and the media have all
Speaker 8: basically said, well, the bulls don't don't mean that much.
Speaker 8: So if the players say, say, okay, well you're telling
Speaker 8: us it don't matter much, then why does it matter
Speaker 8: if we.
Speaker 2: Don't play in it? Yeah? Yeah, yeah yeah. And let
Speaker 2: me tell you this example. So this just shows how
Speaker 2: far things have come.
Speaker 8: College football is transactional now with the with the players
Speaker 8: and the teams and everything. In two thousand, okay, we
Speaker 8: were fighting for a Fiesta Bowl bid, in which we got. Okay,
Speaker 8: we got blown out by Oregon State and Chad Johnson,
Speaker 8: but that's another story. But we we we went to
Speaker 8: that game, the Fiesta Bowl, and we got like five
Speaker 8: hundred dollars in swag.
Speaker 2: Okay, we got like some bow's headfield.
Speaker 8: You would have thought we died and went that, oh
Speaker 8: my god, we're gonna get like five hundred dollars.
Speaker 2: These kids are getting paid tens of thousands a week.
Speaker 2: Does four hundred dollars in swag?
Speaker 6: Move?
Speaker 2: These kids?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 8: And the players, So you're telling us that with all
Speaker 8: the discussion of college football that the only thing that
Speaker 8: matters is a college football playoff?
Speaker 2: Correct?
Speaker 8: And you're you're talking about everything is transactional and what's
Speaker 8: in it for me? And now all of a sudden,
Speaker 8: the kids should just play this game for the love.
Speaker 8: Here's an example. Here's an example if after this season
Speaker 8: in the NFL they had a an exhibition game between
Speaker 8: the Bengals and the Titans, and he told the players, well, players,
Speaker 8: you're not gonna you're not gonna get paid for this,
Speaker 8: but for you love football, I love go out there
Speaker 8: and play for the players wouldn't want to play in it.
Speaker 8: The fans would be like, well, why would we get
Speaker 8: our kids, our guys hurt for next year? At first,
Speaker 8: some of it doesn't mean anything. We can't win anything.
Speaker 8: Does that make any sense anything? I just said, no,
Speaker 8: it makes no sense.
Speaker 2: Of course, the athletic director notre Dame Babbaqua. I love
Speaker 2: the name Babbaqua because in the subject then they used
Speaker 2: to play for the Reds Deserve. I had some baclava
Speaker 2: Alex John Tefilu's house. That's a different issue.
Speaker 1: But according to Notre Dame made he said, we have
Speaker 1: permanent damage inflicted upon our relationship, have been.
Speaker 2: Wronged and until we are made right, how do you
Speaker 2: make it right?
Speaker 1: Because James and Holly and Polly and Holly Madison are
Speaker 1: making the case, and she's in She's in it too,
Speaker 1: isn't she? And what about two Lane the Green Wave?
Speaker 1: What if the Green Wave played Texas? What would happen
Speaker 1: to the Green Wave be playing Oregon?
Speaker 8: It'd be a ripple seventy points again, Now, James Madison,
Speaker 8: I've covered them that they are a really, really good team,
Speaker 8: but they're not They're not going to beat Oregon.
Speaker 2: What about what about and their coaches? He's going to
Speaker 2: u c l as. You didn't answer my question. What
Speaker 2: is the question? Who had the worst weekend? Rocky Boy.
Speaker 1: Little Rocks or Bill Belichick or you know, or Rocky boyman.
Speaker 1: I think maybe Zach Shula had a bad weekend.
Speaker 8: But by the way that that first the first half
Speaker 8: of that. Well, the whole game was just a great game,
Speaker 8: not for you know, for the Bengals, but the first half.
Speaker 8: I don't know if I've ever seen better quarterback play
Speaker 8: in the first half. That was thross guys are making.
Speaker 2: But the catches, yes, and they lost going they lost.
Speaker 2: What's his status? Has he heard? Does he have a
Speaker 2: if I someone wouldn't play anymore? Hell would?
Speaker 8: Here's here's another since I'm on a roll here there
Speaker 8: unpopular app Go ahead. If you're t Higgins, okay, and
Speaker 8: and you you know, if you have a head injury,
Speaker 8: then maybe you.
Speaker 2: Should stay out.
Speaker 8: But if you don't, or you want to act like
Speaker 8: you don't, don't every time you make a catch, come
Speaker 8: up holding your head, because what.
Speaker 2: Do you want to do? Do you want to stay
Speaker 2: in the game.
Speaker 8: Because if you want to stay in the game, they're
Speaker 8: gonna look at it and say, I don't know, he
Speaker 8: got wrong. So you either come out or you play
Speaker 8: as if you play through it and you don't act
Speaker 8: like you're hurt, and you're not gonna on my head,
Speaker 8: my head again, I do that big question.
Speaker 2: Unpopular opinion. Zack Sual is fired.
Speaker 1: You got one year remaining there since Bill Belichick and
Speaker 1: Jordan Hudson, No, John Gruden.
Speaker 2: Who do you pick? Jordan Hudson, Bill Belichick?
Speaker 8: What doesn't matter because he's going to be the coach
Speaker 8: that Bengals here.
Speaker 2: He signed through.
Speaker 8: I don't think he was the bank. I don't think
Speaker 8: he's the main part of the problem. Look the thing
Speaker 8: what what what lost yesterday? The same thing that's lost
Speaker 8: games the entire season. A defense that doesn't have enough
Speaker 8: playmakers and apparently doesn't understand Maybe the didn't hear a
Speaker 8: week Hey, Josh Allen, he.
Speaker 2: Has seventy five career rushing touchdowns. Keeping eye.
Speaker 8: You gotta keep integrity in your in your rush lanes.
Speaker 8: But Washington get way up field and opened up huge
Speaker 8: gaps right up the middle because he runs vertical. I
Speaker 8: imagine that was told during the week, but they didn't
Speaker 8: execute it.
Speaker 1: How's that possible? What kind of what kind of weekend
Speaker 1: did West have at Miller time? What do you think
Speaker 1: about that?
Speaker 2: I don't think he went to Dana Gardens, Richard Fatina.
Speaker 1: I got a call from a bartender again Dan right now,
Speaker 1: right he walks in and picks up the tab for
Speaker 1: everybody he drink, and he had tequila shots and they
Speaker 1: threw the glass on the floor and stopped on it.
Speaker 1: That's my Richard has bathed in the deep blue waters
Speaker 1: ob Savier basketball right now because of this one year
Speaker 1: rental making a million dollars and guess what it was
Speaker 1: worth it? Segment get me into the stuture point. But
Speaker 1: will he the stooge reporters of proud service, every local
Speaker 1: teme star he did get their conditioning dealers time star
Speaker 1: quality you can feel in beautiful Milford the home of
Speaker 1: one main gallery called Baker Heating at five one three
Speaker 1: eight three one fifty one twenty four.
Speaker 2: How about her know you're getting his car popped? How
Speaker 2: about the repo man Rocks? Jason and I are talking
Speaker 2: about that at four o'clock. He didn't.
Speaker 8: I mean, this guy's in charge of making major financial
Speaker 8: decisions for the city. Correct, Correct, he's not making good
Speaker 8: financial decisions.
Speaker 2: How about that eight this's worse for that Cincinnati mayor. No,
Speaker 2: your role is shuts them.
Speaker 1: Out, play it, pay your car payment, make your car paying.
Speaker 1: What about the eight and a half million dollars settlement?
Speaker 9: Rock?
Speaker 8: I've never I've never, I've never had a car repossessed before.
Speaker 8: I understand that they don't just like randomly come out
Speaker 8: and take your car. They call you, they send you mail,
Speaker 8: they like do everything in the world before they take me.
Speaker 2: A guy named after Pureval? Can we locate him anywhere?
Speaker 2: We don't know where he is?
Speaker 3: Where is he?
Speaker 1: And then the second one was a month ago Lincoln Aviator,
Speaker 1: Pop did you see the order? I'll share it with you.
Speaker 2: No, I did. What do you think on Twitter? Because
Speaker 2: you said it to me? I think I did. I
Speaker 2: said to Jordan Hudson, stuff too.
Speaker 8: Well, that that's every day sag every day. I guess
Speaker 8: the story to you or I say four story is correct?
Speaker 8: How about Jordan Hudson?
Speaker 2: What about the uh daughter in law of Bill Belichick
Speaker 2: lighting up Jordan Hudson. That was over Thanksgiving?
Speaker 3: Right? I love that?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Thanksgiving.
Speaker 8: They're saying, look, honey, you know you're affecting all of
Speaker 8: our lives now because my husband is now going to
Speaker 8: be coaching linebackers at Takes Creek High School. Because your
Speaker 8: husband can't give his mind off of something and go
Speaker 8: coach football. It's affecting myself or my husband. That's what
Speaker 8: she's saying.
Speaker 2: About another stabbing victim on Charlotte here's the guy stabbing.
Speaker 2: People say, get me in rock, I have a pipe
Speaker 2: bomb guy. What about that guy about that? Couldn't find him?
Speaker 2: I couldn't find him. No, but now Trump found him
Speaker 2: and it's Trump's fault, right, Trump's fault. I think Trump
Speaker 2: over college football?
Speaker 1: Did I send you that meme about Trump driving the
Speaker 1: toe truck hooked onto ap TAB Purrivals car pulling away
Speaker 1: from Aptab's home.
Speaker 2: I got to send you that one.
Speaker 1: What about your main Burton? About your guy, your guy
Speaker 1: Trey Hendrickson? About him he got suspended?
Speaker 2: I didn't forgot he was still on the team. Suspended
Speaker 2: from what not playing? You're suspended from not playing? He
Speaker 2: wasn't playing anyway, was he? But if he's suspending, can
Speaker 2: you recoup some of his money?
Speaker 1: How much a paycheck does he get? Thirty fifty fifty
Speaker 1: game and he doesn't play? He suspended from not playing?
Speaker 2: Okay? Make it makes sense?
Speaker 1: And what about Trey Henderson? When's he ever gonna play?
Speaker 1: He gets thirty mil? When's he playing?
Speaker 2: I don't know. He's Bengals up there?
Speaker 1: Will he brought you by good spirits, winded Tobacco and
Speaker 1: party town. I hope they're open twenty four to seven.
Speaker 1: Let's see the Bengals lose it yesterday. They're four and
Speaker 1: nine more tonight on Bengals line. Stay on that point.
Speaker 1: I'm listening this morning to your friends in ESPN. If
Speaker 1: the Steelers tie two of their next four games and
Speaker 1: the Bengals sweep, they're in. And you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: what do the Bengals have four wins four to nine,
Speaker 1: four games left?
Speaker 8: If the stud the Bengals with four wins in like
Speaker 8: mid December can make the playoffs?
Speaker 2: Yes, I don't think so. There's less than what. But
Speaker 2: can the Steelers tie two games? Is it possible? You
Speaker 2: you had the Bengals time two games last Year's all right?
Speaker 2: I was having her half right, thank you, thank you,
Speaker 2: thank you.
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bearcats are going to face number twenty two Navy
Speaker 1: and the Liberty Bowl.
Speaker 2: I'm knowing that game on radio. By the way, who's Friday,
Speaker 2: January second? As you see, Navy's good. You see they
Speaker 2: number one nation in rushing ball.
Speaker 8: Games all come down to who is the more motivating.
Speaker 8: Navy wants to be The Navy will be there because
Speaker 8: they are. Soldier doesn't want to be there. I don't
Speaker 8: know the Navy.
Speaker 2: Scot Let's go.
Speaker 1: Miami RedHawks are going to take on Fresno State in
Speaker 1: the Snoop Dog Arizona Bowl Again, what about you? Saturday,
Speaker 1: December twenty seventh, Signetti, the head coach of Indiana, could
Speaker 1: coach the UC Bearcats. But my cousin John Cunningham said
Speaker 1: he wasn't ready two years ago. Three years ago when
Speaker 1: former former Bearcat and Buckeye's assistant Carry Cole about this one,
Speaker 1: I texted him.
Speaker 2: Has been hired as by Michigan as their special teams.
Speaker 2: Court has a sense of humor.
Speaker 1: He goes from the Union of the Confederacy. Cray Carroll
Speaker 1: is the Big East player of the week points against
Speaker 1: UC Dan Carroll. Is that the same guy? Carol EXAVIORLKP
Speaker 1: Top twenty five, Arizona's new number one, Michigan two, Duke three,
Speaker 1: Purdue is six, Neville's eleventh. Kentucky and Indiana both out
Speaker 1: of the top twenty five for the first times in
Speaker 1: the eighteen hundreds. The Miami RedHawks and Travis Steel at
Speaker 1: eight to zero. They got two votes. Look out for
Speaker 1: the Hawks rock Can you see Signetti coaching the UC Bearcats?
Speaker 1: But John Cunningham said he wasn't ready.
Speaker 8: Look, I don't think even Indiana could have predicted how
Speaker 8: well that guy was going to do coveredy when he
Speaker 8: was at JMU. The thing he had, and I argued
Speaker 8: this last week, is he has every place he's been,
Speaker 8: every place he's been, he has a culture of winning.
Speaker 2: He has a resume of winning.
Speaker 8: If it's Division like two, Division two schools, jam, everywhere
Speaker 8: he's been, he's won.
Speaker 2: Instead of no, everybody's going thirty thirty one years old.
Speaker 8: Sounds like somebody in Oxford exactly. Chuck Martin team should
Speaker 8: get smart and wins. He just wins, that's it. It
Speaker 8: didn't win last year.
Speaker 1: My brother John Cunningham, I got a guy named Kurt
Speaker 1: Signetti from JMU that I never heard of, or Scott
Speaker 1: Solderfield from Louisville.
Speaker 2: Who do we pick?
Speaker 8: I think I think the fan base, especially now with
Speaker 8: Twitter where you can actually hear from from fans. I
Speaker 8: think that that sways decisions a lot of major decisions
