Speaker 1 (00:07):
All right now, Billy Cunningham, the Great America will welcome
this Monday afternoon, another great week at broadcasting. Superbity begins. First,
the weather's going to change.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
We like that.

Speaker 1 (00:16):
Tonight it's going to be a little raining. Then over
Tuesday Wednesday, the low temperature late in the week might
be in the forties, which is not bad. Winter is coming,
but until then, winter has come to certain sports teams
in our tri state area. Number One, you have the
Reds last week on Monday Night, I'm sorry, on Tuesday
and Wednesday doing what they did Monday night with the Bengals.

(00:36):
At least they picked up the pieces of that debacle
to perform worse yesterday. And then also you have Elder
in the pit taking down Muller High School. That was
a shock if you see the officials try to take
the game away from them and Kansas didn't work. They
tried again yesterday or Saturday, but that didn't work either.
You see is riding high right now a man with
perspectives on this and so much more. As Moeger, welcome

(00:59):
again the Bill Cunningham Show. And mo how are you?

Speaker 2 (01:02):
I'm well? Willie? How about you?

Speaker 1 (01:04):
Beaten? Bloodied and bowed. I'm watching this thing and this
morning I monitor all events simultaneously. You might have know.
This morning I listened to Tim McGee, the Great Number
eighty five on with Tom Brenneman, and they had some
sort of score that the last three games in the
first three quarters, which by the way, is three quarters
of the game. That makes sense, My dear park Matt
tells me that the Bengals are losing something like ninety

(01:26):
six to two something is a terrible score. And yesterday
they picked up twenty one points when it didn't matter.
So can you put in perspective where the ben Galleys
are at this point? I had a report from Tony
Bender that Joe Burr was wielded in the studio into
the I'm sorry, into the stadium yesterday. He was horizontal,
had an ivy and each arm had a leg dangling

(01:47):
from a ligament. His toe was cut off, his knee
was a bandage, and they had his eyes covered. That
picture is not a good one for the future with
the Bengals. But can you give me some mo Can
you give me mo? I need? Hope?

Speaker 3 (02:04):
Well, I don't know that I can now frankly that
the Joe Burrow that you just described in dire shape,
might be better equipped to play quarterback than Jake Browning is. Look,
this franchise is built on Joe Burrow elevating everybody, every player,

(02:26):
every position, every coach. The entire foundation of the organization
rests on the shoulders of Joe Burrow. Remove him from
the equation, and an already shaky premise, organizational premise absolutely collapses.
And that's exactly what's happened. Look, Jake Browning is a
backup quarterback. Backup quarterbacks are prone to play poorly. Their

(02:49):
proverbial floor is lower than the proverbial floor of a
starting quarterback, especially when we talked about Jake Browning was
undrafted and it's a great success story because he is
managed to stick in the NFL for a number of
years after every single team chose not to draft him,
and so good for him. But you know, Jake Browning

(03:11):
is a back and backup quarterbacks when they played poorly,
it often looks like it did yesterday. The problem for
me is number one, that they're probably going to wait
too long before they decide to try somebody else, and
number two, the rest of the roster isn't good enough.
They ran the ball somewhat effectively yesterday, but they haven't
run the ball effectively in quite a while. The offensive

(03:33):
line is not good. That's a decade long problem. They
spent the entire offseason looking at last year's defense, saying
to themselves, we think we're good with the personnel. We
just eat a new defensive coordinator. Well, when the Bengals
crept back into the game yesterday and at least had
a puncher's chance, and when I say puncher's chance, still

(03:54):
not a great chance, the Bengals defense allowed the Lions
to pretty much slam the door shut. This is look
Jake Browning. They should be looking at somebody else. I
cannot imagine anybody has any faith both inside that locker
room and for those of us looking from the outside,
I can't imagine anybody has any faith in Jake Browning

(04:15):
performing at a level that will allow this team to
win games with him as QB. But the rest of
the roster isn't good. The coaching isn't good enough. I
watched on Thursday night the San Francisco forty nine ers
with a backup quarterback, a backup quarterback who was drafted,
who at one point was the successor to Tom Brady.

(04:36):
But I watched the San Francisco forty nine ers on
the road on a short week with a thousand different
guys injured and not available, figure out a way to
put together a game plan that allowed them to win
a division road game. On a Thursday, I watched the
Minnesota Vikings against that Cleveland defense that the Bengals couldn't
figure out Week one win again with a backup quarterback.

(04:57):
Carson Wentz has a pedigree. Carson Wentz. This has been
a starting quarterback in this league. Carson Wentz was drafted.
He's better than Jake Browning. But I saw the Minnesota
Vikings again figure out a way to win. This coaching
staff can't do it, players aren't good enough, and when
the quarterback play totally tanks, what you have is a

(05:17):
three game stretch that looks like it has for the
Bengals these last three or they have been largely non competitive.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
Well, I'm looking at some of the statistics the bank.
After all, the Bengals are in second place in the
AFC North. But the differential, the point differential, and this
takes into account the twenty one points, the worthless twenty
one points in the fourth quarter. The Bengals are number
one of the thirty two teams and the worst point
differential in football, which is minus seventy one points, which

(05:46):
is terrible and it's awful. Now they're going to go
to Green Bay and play. And so we saw this coming.
You and Tony Pike and Austin Elmo are the best
of this. You said last year and the year before,
the window is open, the window is open. Joe Burrow's
got the window open. The window is closing. The window
is closing. In fact, Joe Burrow turns thirty years old
next year. We'll wait for the next injury, whether it's

(06:08):
the toe, the knee, the wrist, the calf, the toe,
the knee, the wrist, and the calf. What's left, I
guess the shoulder and the head. And so we're waiting
for some other disaster to happen in this franchise. I
call him zach Shuler because he's got that Dave Show
will look in his eye. And there was no adjustments
of any type that made any sense. Goes to personnel,

(06:30):
and I watched the one to one of the times
Jake Browning was sacked. Orlando brown did the Matador approach
off the left tackle spot, but he recovered the fumble.
He caused the fumble to happen, and then he recovered
the fumble. And I'm thinking, where do we go from here? Mo,
Because at this point, when Joe can play, if he
gets off the gurney, gets the IV out, get their

(06:52):
bandages off, and wants to play some football. At that point,
the Bengals will be four and eight and they'll say, well,
let's wait for next year and then get the season.
Take a request in nice and early for next year,
and here we go. Can you see history repeating itself?
And I look back to the era of Marvin's You know,
Marvin Lewis was a nice guy, never won a playoff game.
He kept him for ten years, and Dave Shuler was

(07:14):
here for many years. I don't think he hit a
double digit winning season whatsoever. Before that was Bruce Coslin.
The consistency is inconsistency. They struck lightning with Joe Burrow
by going into overtime in Miami that one game, to
thank God, they lost in Miami, God bless him. But
you know, Zach Shuler tried to win the damn game

(07:35):
when he shouldn't have. That's a different story. Give me
some hope, mo before I talk about the Reds and
UC and the pill. Give me hope.

Speaker 3 (07:44):
Well, hope to me lies in trust. So who do
you trust right now? He took the Zach Taylor? No,
he trust Dak Taylor to figure out a way to
make this work with a backup quarterback.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
And no, no, no, no.

Speaker 3 (07:58):
You want Joe Burrow back and healthy. Do you trust
what the Bengals have on the offensive line to keep
him up right?

Speaker 2 (08:04):
No?

Speaker 3 (08:04):
Do you trust? Do you trust Dukee Tobin to build
a good offensive line in front of Joe Burrow, which
he hasn't been able to do yet? Do you trust
Duke Tobin to draft? Well, let me read for you, Willie.
Let's let's give the twenty twenty five draft class a pass.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
Right.

Speaker 3 (08:19):
Those guys are rookies, so the jury is still out.
Let's start in twenty twenty one. Jackson, Carmen, Joseph Osai,
cam Sample Tyler, Shelvon, Deontay Smith, any of those players,
any of whom aren't with the team. Anymore excited about
any of those guys? No, how about the twenty twenty
two draft? Way move on Dac Till, Cam Taylor, britt

(08:40):
Zach Carter now with the team anymore, Cordell Volson, Tyson Anderson.
Is there a guy there that you want on the
team in twenty twenty six? Miles Murphy, DJ Turner, Jordan Battle,
Charley Jones. I think we like Chase Brown, he's in
that class. I think we like Andrea Yoshabas he's in
that class. But hole lot of unknowns, a whole lot

(09:01):
of jury is still out at best twenty twenty four class.
Jermaine Burton never plays, McKinley Jackson, never plays. Eric Hall.
I think would be a heck of a player. Unfortunately
he's always hurt. Josh Newton, don't know. Tanner McLaughlin no
longer with the team.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
Don't stop it.

Speaker 1 (09:17):
I look at the roster.

Speaker 3 (09:19):
Stop it. I look at the roster and I can't
name for you Willie five non rookies, non rookies that
I am really excited about being with the Bengals in
twenty twenty six.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
If you no, if you open up the Bengals roster
and told the other thirty one teams you can draft
or have any of the Bengal players outside the two
wide receivers. Now I take the other fifty players. You
can take any of these players. Would any functional NFL
team take any of the Bengal players.

Speaker 3 (09:53):
Well, Trey Hendrickson, Yes, which is why the conversations have
to happen about what the Bengals might be able to get.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
He's gone for him, it's going right, he's gone.

Speaker 3 (10:01):
He's not under contract next year, and he's on the
other side of thirty. You know, I certainly could believe
that Amarus Mims one day might be really good, but
I can't tell you that I'm necessarily excited about him.
This isn't a good roster. And the thing that's frustrating
for me is last year told you it wasn't a
good roster. Why because they had Joe Burrow for seventeen

(10:22):
games and he was otherworldly. That is the greatest statistical
season that any Bengals quarterback has ever turned in, which
isn't insignificant because they've had qbs win the MVP Award.
And yet despite that, they were four and eight at
one point and needed to win their last five games
against bad quarterbacks just to get to above five hundred.

(10:45):
Joe Burrow playing for a non playoff team was an
MVP finalist last year. That told you last season the
roster wasn't good enough. What did they spend this offseason doing?
Retooling the roster? Overhauling the roster, No swapping out entire
position groups. No, no, many of the guys you watch

(11:06):
on defense were on last year's defense. They made changes
because you have to, because you draft players, but they
weren't as aggressive in the offensive line as many of
us thought they needed to be and as much as
most of us assumed.

Speaker 2 (11:21):
They would be.

Speaker 3 (11:22):
They looked at last year's team and essentially said, with
some minor tweaks here and there, were pretty much going
to bring back the same dudes. What has that resulted
in the results that looked very familiar to last year,
except with a quarterback who's nowhere close to as good
as Joe Burrow. So why should anybody be surprised that
the results of the last three weeks have been what

(11:43):
they've been.

Speaker 1 (11:44):
Let's turn the page. I put something on next. I'm
sure you saw baseball playoffs ongoing. Looking at this unsettled
roster for the Reds next year, who's the first baseman?
Steers been there a lot. I think he's the choice.
But who knows second base. McClain had a bad year.
I think defensively he's better than he showed. Offensively, he

(12:05):
stinks the shortstop belongs to either right field or left field.
The third basement is either going to be Hayes or
sal that's unsettled all for those positions. Unsettled left field,
I don't know center field. I would think Friedel has
got center field, kind of nailed down right field. Martee,
I have no idea. Austin, I have no idea. Pagne,
I have no idea. I can't recall a time when

(12:27):
there was hope the Reds made the playoffs, but the
next year, getting ready for the season, we don't know
who's playing every position except maybe except catcher. I think
is nailed down with Stevenson and Trevino. But whether it's
the closer, whether it's Hunter, Green, Lodolo, who's at thirst
Does someone have the guts to tell? Scott Borra asked
that your number one client here, Dela Cruz is not

(12:51):
a short stop. He's an outfielder. He runs like a deer,
got a tremendous reach, a great arm. Belongs in right field.
Alla Dave Parker, who came up as a catcher consequence,
Do you have hope that someone like Tito Francona's got
the coyon's to put together a roster and get the
pieces in the right position and move on. Do you
have hope for the twenty twenty six Reds.

Speaker 3 (13:13):
I do, because I think they're starting from a place.
So then VM, that's really good young starting pitching in
a surplus of which that should enable them to execute
a trade if that's the direction they want to go.
I think for me, for me, I start with two places.
Number one, Eli Della Curtains. We got to figure out
what he's going to be. If we are doing this
next year talking about, well, you know, he can do

(13:33):
some amazing things at shortstop, but he still leads to
league and errors. What are we doing here? I think
there have to be really serious conversations about where he
fits best, and do that before spring training. So you
give him spread training to work on the position you
want him to play at. If he's a shortstop, he's
a shortstop, okay, he's got to get better. Now he's
an outfielder. If he's an outfielder, that's fine. Then who's

(13:56):
going to play shortstop right, So you want to figure
that out. I think number two two for me is
are you okay with an offensive zero playing third base? Key?
Brian Hayes is awesome with the glove, awesome. I don't
think he has a peer. He might be the best
defensive player in the sport. But can you put up
with a guy who's an offensive zero? How good does

(14:16):
the defense have to be for you to go? You
know what? At third base, we have somebody who simply
can't hit, and he's going to be the guy every
single day. When they traded for him, it wasn't just
for this year. He's under contract for the rest of
the decade, and so I think there's a real serious
question there. How how much? How little can he hit?

(14:38):
Before you go, you know what? We can't put this
guy out there at third base, no matter how good
his glove is.

Speaker 2 (14:43):
What about Sal?

Speaker 1 (14:44):
What about Sal? Where's Sal?

Speaker 3 (14:46):
So? If you decide, hey, Brian Hayes is our starting
third baseman, okay, you better have offense elsewhere? Does that
mean Sal Stewart plays first base? Probably? Are you gonna
get enough pop from the corner out field positions? They
started the season last year with you and I wondering
have they done enough in the outfield? Are we really

(15:07):
going to run it back again with you know, the
never ending cycle of Will Benson's and four A players.
Are you really going to put Noelve Marte out there
in right field? Where's his ultimate position? Are you good
with Matt McClain at second base? You know they had
him in black magic marker last year at second base,
batting second That didn't work. The rets two hole production

(15:30):
was the worst in the entire sport. Are they giving
up on Christian and Karnasion Frand? You know, to me,
the two guys that kind of screwed him this year
with their performance. Number one, Matt McClain because they decided
he was going to be the two hole hitter. They
never had guys on base consistently enough for Elie de
la Cruz. The two whole production has to be better.
Number two. I think they hoped that Christian and Karnassions

(15:51):
Frand would hit twenty five to thirty home runs. That
obviously did not happen. I have no idea if that
guy can play at the big league level, And so
there are so many questions they need. I think they
need a guy in the middle of the order that
you could expect thirty home runs from. Now that might
be South Stewart. I don't know that you could bet
on it only being South Stuardent. I think you've got

(16:13):
to go find someone else. What is that going to cost?
Are you willing to dip your toes in the free
agency pool? Can you get a guy like that in
exchange for a Nick Ladolo or a Hunter Green or
an Andrew Abbott or a Rat Louder or a Chase
Burns Like that's if they're going to make a trade,
that's where it's going to come from. Or do they
spend money in free agency? I think regardless offensively, if

(16:37):
you're not going to hit a ton of home runs,
you got to be better at manufacturing runs. This wasn't
a huge on base team. This wasn't a team that
was great at stealing bases. They kind of put the
brakes on this team relative to what they were in
twenty twenty three, and so I think Nick carl and
Brad Metter really have a tough task in front of
them to take a team that this year was okay

(16:58):
and qualified for the but build a team that's closer
to what the Milwaukee Brewers are closer to what the
Chicago Cubs are and a team that when it gets
to the postseason next year, if they do, is better
equipped to a dance.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
Kind of said. Here we are the first part of October.
Thought talking about next year for the Bengals and for
the Reds. But it's the way we are. It's a
Cincinnati thing and we've perfected it. And Moager, once again,
thanks for coming on the Bill Cunningham Show. We'll talk
later about UC Bearcats, big games coming up. We'll see
what happens. But Moe, may you continue to have a
great day this Monday afternoon in the Tri State. Thank you, Moe.

Speaker 3 (17:35):
I'll do my best, Willie.

Speaker 1 (17:36):
Thank you God bless America. Let's continue with more news
next to Jerome with the Reds, Bengals and so much more.
TOWS Radio seven hundred WLW. It's a music Dave Keaton,
Monday Afternoon begins in the Tri State. What a week ahead.
It's going to be wonderful. And it's better to have

(17:56):
a bad NFL team than no NFL team. I guess
Bengals here the next ten to fifteen years. And that's
a positive, not a negative. And many cities would sell
their organs in order to have an NFL team. We
got one, and whether you like it or not, the
Brown family, the family is going to be in charge
and for at least for a few more decades. And

(18:18):
it is what it is, so get over it. Enjoy
what it is, and when it's this bad, simply think
about how things could be worse, which is having no
NFL team. So that's the standard. Is it better to
have the Bengals the way they are and have been
for the past fifty five years, or is it better
to have no NFL team. That's why I counseled Alisia
Reese and others on the county Commissioner Denise Treehouse to

(18:41):
do what is necessary to keep the Bengals here, because,
after all, it is better to have a bad team
then no team at all. It's better to have bad
ownership the no team at all. It's better to have
bad player developmental programs like Duke Tobin the general manager
so to speak, of the Bengals, that are having no
general manager of an NFL team here at all. Right,
So it is what it is. Get over it. Secondly,

(19:04):
the election, believe it or not, the election starts. I
think today is the last day the register and you're
going to absentee or whatever. Voting in person. Early voting
is happening beginning tomorrow at the Board of Elections. The
gold standard of how to conduct elections is in Ohio,
in which almost everyone can register to vote in person

(19:25):
or by mail, and I normally do it by mail
and send it in and I'm confident my vote's going
to count on. Not too many people double or triple vote,
and so the election is important. I think municipal elections
and school board elections are maybe the most important ones
because those are the ones close to home that profoundly
affect your life. And in my school district where I live,

(19:47):
Indian Hill, it's a pretty damn good school district. I
love the three dads that are running for reelection. They're
going to be good. And also in city government, Sycamore Township,
run by Tom Weedman is a among the best of
all time. I can't and Tracy Schwegman and I can't
imagine it being any better. We have good government, low taxes, etc.

(20:08):
We've not had a tax increase in Sycamore Township for
about twenty years because they are frugal with the use
of our money. They don't play silly political games. When
things go wrong, they don't all of a sudden start
blaming other people. And one of the saddest examples is,
of course the mayor of Cincinnati have to have peer
of all, in which he recently puts something on his

(20:30):
media account that says the following this is have to
have peer of all. In his own words, you'd have
to understand priority one, two and three, he says, and
we know is city safety. That's number one. You've got
to have a safe environment. And I take umbrage with
ken Kober, which I rarely do with the FOP. Whether

(20:50):
you like it or not. The Second Amendment gives Americans
the right to keeping bare arms, that is, to have
a gun, and to tell those who have a constitutional
right to do something, don't practice that right in Cincinnati, because,
after all, you may be the victim of a crime.
It's kind of like telling a woman don't wear your
skirts too short. You may be the victim of a crime. Well,

(21:12):
I have a constitutional right to carry my firearm if
I desire to. I don't have a constitutional right to
A woman doesn't to wear a short skirt. And so
it's kind of a sad commentary that we have so
many car break ins happening in the city of Cincinnati
everywhere all the time, and these acts are committed with
impunity that the police have to tell individuals don't exercise

(21:37):
your constitutional rights in Cincinnati. Be careful where you put
your weapon, your gun, which you should anyway, and most
gun owners are extremely extremely responsible with their gun use,
and don't keep them in the car because someone's going
to break into the car and steal it. Therefore leave
it at home. Well, if you're a responsible gun owner,
thank you. We'll make those decisions. But to tell someone

(21:58):
an American citizen and don't come to the Cincinnati to
exercise your constitutional rights, it's not a very good message,
I don't think to you. I don't think it's a
good message at all, because job one, two and three
in the city is public safety. According to who after Purival,
so he put this on social media, climate change hurts everyone,

(22:20):
but it hurts our black and brown communities the most.
That's why local leaders need to step up and confront
systemic racism. And those two sentences, what hell's you talking about?
That climate change hurts everyone? No, it doesn't. It doesn't.
The climate has been changing for thousands of years. Guess what,

(22:42):
it will always change. It's going to keep changing. Pollution
is different than climate change. We're all against pollution, right,
we're and climate change has been happening for the last
five billion years, will keep happening. Man made. Climate change
is a canard. It's not true. It's a lie that pollution.
We can handle pollution. In fact, I think the EP

(23:04):
et cetera should almost disband because the corporate structures and
the legal system can handle pollution. But climate change having
warm weather later in the fall and earlier in the spring,
that's a good thing. And for him to say it
hurts black and brown communities the most, what the hell
does that mean the wind blows differently in black and

(23:25):
brown communities, or maybe the sun shines brighter or hotter
in black and brown community And what are black and
brown communities is around Xavier Evanston is out of black
community and has Clifton a quote black community. So is
the mayor saying, look, we have black communities, we have
brown communities, and we have white communities. No we don't.

(23:45):
We have communities in which certain people want to live
in certain areas for all kinds of good reasons. There's
lots of black folks who live in Deer Park schools.
I see them all the time. Is Deer Park a
white community? Well, probably seventy five percent white? But does
that tell black and brown people don't live in Deer
Park because it is a quote white community. This is

(24:06):
the coinage and the rhetoric of the radical left. Then
he goes on to say, this is the mayor of
Cincinnati telling climate change hurts everyone. No, it doesn't. Secondly,
it hurts black and brown communities the most. No, it
doesn't in a paternalistic way. You may think so. But
the Pete Whitties of this world who live in and
around Elder High School, that may be quote a blacker

(24:29):
brown community, But Pete Whitty doesn't think it's a blacker
brown community. It's a community in which he lives. He
wants to define these communities based upon skin color. That's
the mayor, and he goes on to say, that's why
local leaders need to step up and confront systemic racism.
What the hell is systemic racism? Who's in charge of
the systems in America? Mainly they're liberals, and Democrats. So

(24:54):
if local leaders need to step up, there's another great words,
step up and confront systemic race. You are the system?
After that, peer of all? Are you confronting yourself? Municipal
government in the city of Cincinnati is controlled exclusively by
left wing liberal Democrats. Are you imposing a system of

(25:16):
racism in the city of Cincinnati? Scottie Johnson? Are you?
Lemon Kearney? Are you? Victoria Parks? Are you Mika Owens?
Are you? Are you are the members of council? Are
they part of the system? Well? I would think so. Hell,
in the city of Cincinnati, governmentally, they are the system.

(25:36):
You can't find a Republican with a search warrant. Hopefully
after November that'll be different. But who's in charge of
the system of government in Cincinnati? Can you raise your
hand if you're a Democrat? Correct?

Speaker 4 (25:48):
You?

Speaker 1 (25:49):
Democrats are in charge of the system. Talk about the Inquirer.
A proud black man named Kevin Aldridge runs the runs
the Inquiry. Is he part of the system? I would
think so, inquires the only local newspaper, right, and he's black.
Is Kevin Aldridge part of the system? I guess not?

(26:10):
I guess not. Then move on to the school board
and the schools in the city of Cincinnati. Are they
part of the system? Are they important part? Absolutely? There's
no Republicans on the school board or city council anywhere
in the City of Cincinnati or public schools, right, They're
all left wing liberal Democrats. And I think the superintendent

(26:32):
of schools again is an African American female? Is she
part of the system of systemic racism? Does she practice it?
Do we stand up against systemic racism when the system
is controlled by Democrats? Do we stand up against f
TEB Pierrival and lemon Kearney and all the rest members
of council when they're the system? Throw on top of

(26:54):
that the court system or the legal system. Are those
in charge? May I say that every every significant office
and Hamilton County is controlled by what party? Well, that'd
be the Democratic Party. Are they part of the system?
Is Elisha Reese, Stephanie Dumas, Denise tree House, three county commissioners?

(27:15):
Are they part of the system? Hello? Anyone hearing my voice?
Are they part of the system? The county prosecutor, the
county corner, the county sheriff, They're all Democrats? Are they
part of the system. Yeah, how about local court leaders
dominated by what party? That'd be the Democratic Party? Are

(27:37):
they part of the system of governance? In fact, I
look around Cincinnati, in the Hamblton County. You can't find
a Republican anywhere. The only elected one is the county engineer,
and he has no policy prescription and no other engineer
wants the job. So Beck has it. So these buzzwords,

(27:57):
these clues, and these tips, and these winks and nods
given by radical leftists like Afteb Pirival, local leaders need
to step up on gunfront systemic races held nationally twelve
for the last sixteen years, whether Barack Hussein Obama or
Joe Biden or Kamala Harris or Nancy Pelosi or Chuck
Schumer have controlled Washington completely, Guess what, They're all Democrats

(28:23):
and at least in many cases persons of color. Are
they part of the system?

Speaker 3 (28:29):
What? Wink?

Speaker 2 (28:30):
Wink?

Speaker 1 (28:30):
Nod nod? These buzzwords are used by radical leftists not
to judge their own behavior as inadequate, to blame others
not involved in the system for the problems that their
policies cause. So when I read this about climate change,
hurts every No, it doesn't. Pollution hurts everyone, but not
climate change. Climate change for us as a positive, it

(28:54):
hurts black and brown communities the most. No, it doesn't.
It doesn't. The win they air this guy winter summer fall.
Does that hurt black communities in Brown No, he's pandering
and exploiting your ignorance for your vote to keep him
in power. Can you figure that one out. That's why
local leaders need to step up and confront systemic racism. Well,

(29:16):
if there is systemic racism, who's in charge of the system. Colleges,
universities radical left, every major corporation in America radically left.
They give their radical left wing causes the Cincinnati Inquiry,
Kevin Aldridge black man. Is he somehow oblivious to the
power that he has? Or the school board or the

(29:39):
administration in the city of Cincinnati of the school board?
How about the court system? Juvenile court? How about corporate America?
How about Colleges University's late evening talk show host the
View Look Everywhere? The presidency twelve of the last sixteen years,
Obama or Biden or Nancy Pelo seeing chucksh The whole

(30:01):
system is controlled by the Democratic Party, not the old
Democratic Party, but by the left doing Democratic Party that
uses the ignorance of their voters for them to personally
stay in power because their policies have failed, and they
have failed miserably. So how does have to have pure
of all and the rest get away with it? I
have no idea. I saw a message from Evan Nolan

(30:23):
who's on city council and he opens every discussion with
his preferred pronouns. Is that mega talk? Is that republic No,
those are left wing Democrats. They're all Democrats fighting who's
systemic racism? When they are the system. They are the
system complaining about the effects that their policies sadly have caused,

(30:44):
wanting to blame others for the failure of what they've done.
It's unbelievable. And they get away with it because they
kept in power by well meaning voters who knee jerk
vote for the D instead of the R, or don't
vote at all because they're taught by their by their
system of prejudice to vote for Democrats. When we conservative

(31:07):
slash libertarians who generally vote Republican largely have been out
of power for a long time and likely not to
come back in any major American city or in Washington
dominated by the fifth estate, all of which a fourth estate,
which are the bureaucracies that Donald Trump's trying to change.
So don't be a fool. What do you have to lose?

(31:30):
Look around. If there's too much crime in the city,
most of which is not even counted, think about this.
Cops do the arrest. If you have twenty percent fewer
cops in the city of Cincinnati, you better have twenty
percent lesson crime arrested but not convicted. There's some massive
lawlessness happening in the city of Cincinnati in which no

(31:52):
one's arrested at all because cops aren't around to do
the arresting. And so many of the newer cops there
four or five years have been in in office as
a police officer are rather flaccid and placid and shall
we say, lack aggressiveness. They don't want to get out
there and arrest people because you go hands on. It's
a problem. Open air drug use and homelessness, smoking a

(32:15):
pot everywhere, pulling over for traffic offenses, all those activities
have stopped. You might recall last week I had on
Judge Josh Berkowitch that knows this there's about four hundred
empty beds in the Hamlety County Jail because cops aren't
arresting people. And if you don't arrest people for crime
when the crime is being committed, that doesn't mean crime

(32:35):
is down. It means crime is up. But those who
are committing crime aren't being arrested. So in Cincinnati, typical
other major American cities, twenty percent fewer cops means twenty
percent fewer arrest And when you have cops that are
on duty that are not incentivized to arrest people because
the government in Cincinnati doesn't want arrest of individuals who

(32:56):
look like many city council members, then the arrest are
going to be way to Even in spite of all that,
every day Brian Comebs and others talk about the shooting
and crime. It is massive. And now you got the
police union come out and say, look, you have a
right to possessing bear arms, but don't bring your gun
to Cincinnati. Someone's gonna knock you over the head or
bust in your car during a Bengals game and steal it.

(33:18):
You'll be lucky to keep your car. You come back
from the game, your car may be on blocks and
the wind is knocked out. But guess what, your car
you're gonnill be gone too, So be careful. Ladies don't
wear short skirts in the city of Cincinnati. You might
be raped. Men don't bring guns to the City of Cincinnati.
You may be victimized by crime and lose it. Does
any of that make any sense? Of course not. But

(33:39):
that's where we are now let's continue. It's laughable that
we have a metrosexual mayor who's an empty suit, pandering
and exploiting the ignorance of Democratic voters, telling them lies
about who's in charge of the city when he's the
one in charge and city council is in charge. So

(34:00):
they blame others for their inadequacies and failure of their policies.
Are they going to get away with it again in
about a month? I don't know. Corey Bowman and others
tell me. Chris Smitherman, Lynda Matthews tell me this year
is going to be different. The voters have figured out
what the Democrats have done to them for the last
half a century, and they want change, and I have
ted pirival is not exactly change. Lemon Kearney has not

(34:23):
changed Scottie Johnson has not changed. So if you believe
these lies, you get the government you deserve. Let's continue.
Coming up later will be Congressman Warren Davidson about the
shutdown in Washington, and also Jeff crue Air, my friend
from New Orleans, about what's happening in many major American
cities with ice and elsewhere. When federal law enforcemforcement shows up,

(34:47):
the Democrats are saying, attack them. City police will not assist,
and you're on your own. Bill Cunningham, News Radio seven
hundred WW Bill Cunningham, the Great American and this morning
Speak of the House, Mike Johnson won over a list

(35:09):
of reasons why the shutdowns should not take place, and
that was rather persuasive and at least if you're objective,
But the CNN cut out of it right in the
middle when it was getting the good part about the
conversations he had with Schumer and with the King Jeffreys.
But until then, Warren Davidson is a US Congressman. I
think the seventh or eighth congressional district. That may change

(35:30):
sometime soon. Congressman Warren Davidson, and welcome again to the
Bill Cunningham Show. This Monday afternoon. What does the congressman
do when there's a complete lockdown going.

Speaker 2 (35:39):
On, Well, you try to find a way to get
it open in some ways. But look, we passed a
bill in the House a couple of weeks ago, now
almost three weeks ago, and the Senate has had a
hard time passing it. Now they've passed it in the
sense that they've got a majority of the Senate that
wants to keep the government open. But the Senate has
their sixty vote rule and Democrats know that trying to

(36:00):
use that every ounce of leverage they can because they're
not they're mad about the things that they lost with
you know, things that Republicans have already changed, and they
want to get back to stuff like, you know, health
care for illegals, funding NPR, and you know funding you know,
foreign aid, all these kinds of things that Usaid defunded.

(36:20):
They want to restore all those things, and that's what
they're shutting the government down for.

Speaker 1 (36:24):
Can you explain the California carve out? Is what that
is and why that funds illegals getting free medical care
and our expense. What is the California carve Out?

Speaker 2 (36:35):
Well, it's not supposed to be done, and I shared
on social media weeks ago fourteen states they're trying to
find loopholes to provide healthcare to illegals. California has been
the most overt I think they spend like twenty three
billion dollars on it. And what they would do is say, well,
we are going to count the money that we're giving
to illegals for the Medicaid matching dollars. So you know,

(36:58):
in Ohio you've got two back two buckets once the
standard Medicaid and then Obamacare kind of put a ninety
ten match. So the federal I'm going to give ninety
percent of the funds and the state gives ten percent
of the funds for the Obamacare expansion. But traditionally it
was about sixty forty, so you blend the two together.
Most states it's seventy thirty or so. Well, when they

(37:20):
spend that twenty three billion dollars, they're trying to count
it as if it was money spent for the traditional
medicaid population. And we closed that loophole when we passed
the big beautiful bill and prosing the Trump signed it
on July fourth. They're fighting to restore it. As if
that didn't happen. Well, these are state funds, and you
know this is this money fungible, Like, oh, okay, I

(37:41):
promise not to use any of the money to pay
salaries if you can just give me ten million dollars
for my business. And you're like, yeah, well you also
don't have to buy steel for your metal stamping companymore so,
I'm going to take all that and give it to myself.
You know that's the Yeah, but I didn't pay myself.
You know this this idea that they're not spending federal
dollars on it, they're spending state and then taking credit
for and.

Speaker 1 (38:02):
Then eventually the taxpayer pace. As far as ICE, I'm
gonna talk to you about ICE a little bit and
ICE's operations here in Hamilton County, Butler County is it
in northern Kentucky. It's rather quiet. There's not much media
coverage of ICE arresting people that shouldn't be here and
put them in the Boone County or the Butler County
jail on the way you go. So this morning, two
or three hours ago, I watched Brandon Johnson, the mayor

(38:25):
of Chicago that has this seven percent approval rating and
that's among Democrats in Chicago is seven percent approval rating.
Ordering ICE out of the city of Chicago and demanding
the ICE release all the detainees and the so called
prisoners ICE has and over the weekend there was ten
vehicles that got around the vehicles operated by ICE, and

(38:47):
there was actual fisticuffs and shootings taking place, complete chaos,
and the Chicago police were turned We're told to stand down.
I watched the transcripts this morning on one of the
Chicago stations where the officers are calling for assistance. We
need help, We're surrounded, shots fired, and Chicago police were
told to stand down, which is something the Chicago Police

(39:10):
Union had about two hours ago said, this cannot happen
in our city. When law enforcement needs help, we respond
because the FBI, the Department of Justice, the the ATF,
the US Marshal Service. When a call goes out to
the Chicago Police needs help, they come to help their
fellow officers. How dangerous is it when a mayor of

(39:31):
a major American city refuses to allow federal law enforcement
to do its job and secondly demands that their employees
not help ICE who are under attack.

Speaker 2 (39:43):
Well, it's an all in commitment to be in a
sanctuary city. You know, they opened they opened the city
and said, look, Chicago's already a great place for your
crime racket, but come here and we'll keep you safe.
And they're continuing to do that. They're keeping safe the
cartels that out of Chicago to run their criminal operations

(40:03):
and yeah, okay, everybody else illegal maybe who just came
there to did a good job. But think of this.
You can't have like every city in America decide who's
a citizen. That's only federal And then when you try
to get the federal government try to get local authorities
to help you get people trying to stop Sheriff Jones
from oh this is a this is a federal issue.

(40:24):
You can't use county resources to go after people. Well,
that's the kind of thing we should be seeing, is
full cooperation to get after the people that are in
our country illegally and break in our laws. But Chicago's
gone the exact other way and become complete accomplices to
try to resist the federal government enforcing the clear statue,
the clear jurisdiction of the federal government, and it's going

(40:46):
to have no effect. Brandon Johnson can say it, but
Ice is going to be there, and if the Chicago
PD won't provide security, We're just going to send more
federal firepower into Chicago to provide security.

Speaker 1 (40:59):
Wow. And so this is chaos. I reflect back to
a twenty year period when the Democrats are in charge
of government in the South, and the Democrats in the
South refused to enforce federal law dealing with discrimination of
African Americans. In fact, it took the federal troops to
stand in the doorway against Governor Wallace and against Oral

(41:20):
Fabis in Arkansas so that black kids could go to
public school. And the Democrats of that era said, federal
law doesn't apply here. We're going to do what we want. You, Feds,
get the hell out of town.

Speaker 3 (41:32):
Here.

Speaker 1 (41:32):
We are fifty or sixty years later, and guess what
the same Democratic Party is now saying it's Chicago, Portland,
Los Angeles, not yet Cincinnati, that federal law doesn't apply
here and therefore get out of dodge. Do you see
the consistency between what happened in the nineteen fifties and
sixties in the South by the Democrats what the Democrats
are doing here now.

Speaker 2 (41:53):
Yeah, And I think the courts are going to see
it as well. Despite this looney federal judge in Portland
as basically saying that, you know, President Trump has no
jurisdiction in Portland. It's like, well, I'm pretty sure it's
still part of America. And the only reason we we
have ice again is federal law. So in portland's the
same kind of thing. You've got a tax on ice agents,

(42:15):
you've got a tax on federal facilities, and they need
more security, and instead of the local law enforcement providing
it and helping, they're standing down and at the order
of local elected officials. So President Trump said, hey, we
need National Guard to just provide security for our people
while they do the law enforcement work. And you know,

(42:36):
we're trying to have that fight with the courts, and
this goes to the judges. You know, the judges are
deciding they're unelected, but they're going to try to rule
the country.

Speaker 1 (42:45):
It's it's sad and and what's happening there. I imagine
this thing is going to come to a head the
next few weeks. And thank god, you know, fall and
winter are coming. Things are calmed down, but the lawlessness,
and secondly, I've seen these YouTube videos of the hundreds
of millions of dollars coming from Iran, from China and
from so called foundations George Soros types in which they

(43:08):
fund the protest. This one YouTube video has the same
fifty to sixty people dressed in different garb, but they're
the same people protesting Trump, protesting Ice, They're protesting Gaza,
They're professional protesters. They show up looking a certain way,
with similar masks on and loud speakers, and the same

(43:30):
crew is on several of these different fronts protesting in
major cities. The same people and some of the others.
Some of the journalists talk to these individuals, they refuse
to discuss who funds them. How do you live? How
do you have time to protest all day? Well, the
fact of the matter is George Soros and others and
those groups are funding these protests. It's called crowds on demand,

(43:53):
in which they're paid millions of dollars to fly these
protesters around the country, get on different garb, but could
be in favor of African American causes. It could be
in favor of Gosins, could be in favor of Iran,
It could be in favor of Mexico and the same
hundreds of people are flowing around the country given signs
and told the protest how about looking into that congressman,

(44:15):
because that is not the way things ought to be.

Speaker 2 (44:19):
Oh, exactly what we're doing with the follow of the
money action, you know FINS and Financial Crimes Enforcement Network
that collects the financial intelligence, and we're we're gathering that,
we're making sure we share it with law enforcement. And
then we got to get DJ to start bringing the cases.
And look, I've been encouraged by Steven Miller talking about
how we're going to use a full on effort to
go after these groups. And you know, the groups are

(44:42):
you know, sort of agitated, they're paid agitated. We know
where the money's coming from in some cases, some cases
we're still doing the investigations. Is where's DOJ. We need
Pam Bondi to get you know, into high gear here
and get after some of these guys. But the other
part is that's really sad. Well, that part's crazy, and
you know, on a certain level, a lot of our
people across the political spectrum kind of acknowledge at some

(45:05):
level it's crazy, but they won't speak out. The far
left is found a home for set condemning this, and
when it's time to go vote, they're going to go
vote for it. Look at the Virginia Attorney General's race
where this guy's literally crafting messaging saying, oh, you know,
I'm imagining just you know, bullets in the head of

(45:26):
my opponents and things like that. And when one of
his Democrat colleagues pushes back on him, he's doubling down
on it and no apology nothing. In fact, party in
Virginia is doubling down and back in. The guy, the
Virginia candidate, you know, for governor, doubling down and backing
them up on it. And so you know, this kind

(45:46):
of radical, crazy ideology. So goes back to Sarah Huckabee
Sanders normal versus crazy and crazy sound a home on
the left.

Speaker 1 (45:55):
Well, the Virginia this is the chief law enforcement officer
and the wealth of Virginia, in which two years ago.
This wasn't when he was in college and a clown drunk,
this was two years ago. He urged that two bullets
to be put in the head of the Speaker of
the House in the Virginia Assembly. He also wanted the
wife of the Speaker of the House to hold the bloody,

(46:16):
dead bodies of her children in her arms, and he
put that in print, shared that on social media. Now
this morning or Sunday yesterday, he apologized saying, you know,
I shouldn't have been so I was wrong to do that,
and I'm sorry I shouldn't have done that. But we're
talking about a forty two year old man urging on
social media that some nut job put two bullets in

(46:39):
the head of the Speaker of the House in Virginia
and kill his children so his seat is eliminated from
the earth, and that the mother, his wife, hold the
bodies of her dead, bleeding children, and he put that
in print. And now the election, it's unbelievable.

Speaker 2 (46:55):
Yeah, this isn't just some random guy. He's the guy
Democrats are running to be the A'sorney General for the
state of Virginia. I mean, it's crazy. And so you go, well,
why aren't the left enforcing the laws. Well, they're electing
people like this, you know, they're electing people that believe
all this stuff. And so while you're back home thinking, well, look,

(47:16):
I'm a Democrat. I mean I don't believe all these
crazy things. I think this is hyperbole. The Republicans are
just spinning this up. No, look at the candidates that
you're electing. This guy in Virginia. There are my colleagues
who share these same kinds of views, and it's just
that's where we're at, normal versus crazy, and we need

(47:39):
people around the country to stay We're staying away from
the crazy people, and we're going to enforce the laws.
You can't have every city in the country decide who's
a citizen and then they get an obstruct federal law
enforcement for just enforcing immigration law.

Speaker 1 (47:54):
You know the guy's name. The guy's name is Jay Jones,
and he's kind of on the defensive. But early voting
starts today in Virginia and the Democratic gubernatorial candidates she
wants him to continue in the race. The Attorney General's
Associations in America said he's got to step down. You
can't urge that your political opponents be shot and their

(48:17):
children be butchered and put the bloody babies in your
mother's arms to die. You can't have that person in
charge of law enforcement. Two bullets in the head is
what he referred to, and also the dying children in
the mother's arms. The wife of the guy who's running
against and of course I don't think J. Jones going
to go out and kill people. But the problem is

(48:39):
on the left, there's crazies everywhere, like the one who
shot Charlie Kirk and also the one who tried to
kill Brett Kavanall. There's crazies everywhere that read this stuff
as if it's real, as a call to action to
kill the current Attorney general in Virginia, who's the Republican.
The call to action is to kill him. It's like
what and this has not caused more difficulties for him

(49:02):
in the race. I find this unbelievable, Warren.

Speaker 2 (49:06):
I mean, we'll see, hopefully the good people of Virginia
will make the right decision. And look, the mayor of
Chicago's already got no approval rating. The question is how
does a guy get elected with zero approval rating or
I guess seven percent of number, but you know, some
some level of positive approval rating. But you know, this
is the total illustration in blue city after blue city

(49:27):
around the country. You know, Donald Trump said it in
his first campaign, and it's still so true. What the
heck do you have to lose? You know, And hopefully
people will wake up and say Yeah, you know, maybe
we should try a different approach and just fundamental civilization.
Don't hurt people, don't take their stuff. Yeah, part is

(49:48):
don't tolerate people that will do those things.

Speaker 1 (49:51):
Now that it's worth the law on a novel concept. Lastly,
the lines are being redrawn as I speak. Smart money
says that Greg Lansman's going to be positioned out. Where
are you on reapportionment of your district right now? You
have a little bit of Hamlin County. Smart money tells
me they're going to take Ice seventy five west and
east and you're going to come down to western Hamlin County.

(50:13):
What do you know about that? If anything?

Speaker 2 (50:16):
Well, I don't know for sure. I've seen about seven
or eight versions of the map. And you know, without
saying when we updated our constitution back in twenty eighteen,
without saying the word Cincinnati, he said, you can't split Cincinnati.
It used to be split between at the time brad
winstripped and Steve Shabbitt, and then when you had it
all drawn together, of course, Greg Lansman meet Steve Shabbitt,

(50:37):
and Shabbit longtime represented the west side. But because of
that shift, you know, I've had a good fortune to
represent the west side except for del High Everything that's
not in the city west of seventy five is in
the eighth district. Now, who knows where it'll change. You know,
some people think that, you know, we went from twelve

(50:57):
twelve Republicans and four Democrats in the last redraw, that
we should have held twelve and Democrats probably should have
lost one. Most people think that means you'll have one
in Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati. But there are people that
really believe we might even be able to change it
more than that. Right now, that's in the hands of
the redistricting Commission. That's one Republican, one Democrat from the House,

(51:19):
one Republican, one Democrat from the Senate, the governor of
the Secretary of State, and the auditor, and they're supposed
to present something by the end of the month, and
we'll see where it goes from there.

Speaker 1 (51:27):
All right, let's see what happens. So I followed the
Illinois rule, in which there are seventeen congressional seats in
Illinois and fifteen of the seventeen are Democrats. So I
would follow the Illinois rule, which has been in effect
for a long time. Bring the Illinois rule to Ohio
and make it thirteen to two. That's my vote. But
Warren Davidson, you're a great American. Thanks for coming on

(51:49):
the Bill Cunningham Show. And please stay safe out there
on the campaign trail with so many Democrats calling for
injury and debt to those they disagree with. But Warren Davidson,
thank you very much.

Speaker 2 (52:00):
Thanks always an honor. Pray for peace, and God bless
you and all your listeners.

Speaker 1 (52:04):
And God bless America. Let's continue with more news coming
up next. And we have an attorney general and the
great State of Virginia urging that his political opponents be
shot in the head and that his wife, the mother
of his two babies, hold their bloody, dying bodies. And
that passes for political discourse. Bill Cunningham News Radio, seven
hundred WW.

Speaker 5 (52:25):
Greve receivers go out to the right, so we're out

Speaker 1 (54:35):
I went to the tailgate party with Johnny Kraftcraft Electric,
et cetera. Walked around. There was huge tailgating. I looked
like Bengal Jim. But the Elder Faithful was there and
I talked to Father Anthony Browch, the chaplain for Elder
High School, and I said, look, you tell the he
wanted to talk to the team just before the start

(54:56):
of the game. Yeah, I said, Father, tell those Panthers
is gonna kick their ass. He looked at me and said,
I'll tell him.

Speaker 8 (55:04):
Twenty four to sixteen correct. Elder Elder roles correct.

Speaker 1 (55:10):
Maler looked overwhelmed, out, coached, outplayed by the Panthers, who.

Speaker 8 (55:15):
It was thought, weren't that good. You picked Molar and
gave me Moler time for another visit to Greaters. What
about the Marymont that's an edging out the park twenty
four to twenty two. Was at the twenty three to
twenty one three twenty one.

Speaker 1 (55:34):
Of course Safa then Lakota West of course beat up
on Cole Rain. But you know what, Willie, they got
one win. Man handled Cole Rank almost more than the standard.
Is that the standard is calling at once we start?
Is that the standard? Why don't you talk about the Bengals, Willie?
The student reporters of proud service of your local Tamestar

(55:55):
Heating in their conditioning dealers, Tamestar quality you can feel
in Southeastern in the called Joe Exstein at Eckstein Heating
and COOLi get eight one, two nine, three to two
twenty twenty. I spoke had some pictures taken with the
cheerleaders or whatever from seton, and I told today that
to Sarah, I would say, make her the citizen of

(56:18):
the day. Didn't get her last name, and I said, Sarah,
you're the citizen of the day today. If she's listening,
she says she doesn't a way home from school at
seton the Seaton Saints controlled by Chris smitham.

Speaker 8 (56:30):
Bengals update, will he brought you by good Spirits at
party Town with thirteen locations in northern Kentucky? Of course,
former hopefully I grew open late last night with that
one had to be former mount Healthy standout David Montgomery.
Took ten years for him to play another game in
his hometown. Could be another ten but the former Division
three player of the Year in Ohio in twenty fifteen

(56:52):
touchdown pass, touchdown run thirty seven twenty four sending the
Bengals to two and three and eight Browning into the
hot tub because that guy was smothered all day long.
I'm going to Lando Brown with the matador approach from
the left tackles, Well, how about to play on the safety?
I think the I think that it wasn't even a
guy there to block him, right, So I.

Speaker 1 (57:15):
Don't get it. The team is over. Zach Schull was
out of his element more than night on Bengals line
six five seven hundred WLW on the road next week,
where to the frozen tundra of Green Bay, Wi. Thomson.

Speaker 8 (57:30):
The Packers are a fourteen and a half point favorite.

Speaker 1 (57:33):
May not be enough points, the weather might be a
little iffy. Suddenly we have the global warming. Well, I
like global warming, you like global warming? I don't know.
I don't know.

Speaker 8 (57:43):
Monday Night Football Kansas City and Jacksonville at seven on
ESPN fifteen thirty. As we stated, the Cincinnati Bearcats knocking
off Iowa State. They're twenty sixth in the nation and
the AP.

Speaker 1 (57:56):
You see, maybe headed to the Final four like they
did about it seven eight years ago. What do you think?
Red's update?

Speaker 8 (58:02):
Mark Sheldon here we go reports today that all of
the Reds coaching staff under manager Terry Francona, has been
invited back for next season.

Speaker 1 (58:13):
The whole town's baddie about Cincinnati. What a team? What
a team? He was a team.

Speaker 8 (58:18):
Former Reds catcher Kurt Casally, former star of Under the
Lights in the Dugout a couple of years ago. I
kind of like him, has retired after eleven big league seasons.
He's in the front office with the Reds.

Speaker 1 (58:31):
I like that guy. Wonder what job he's got. Well,
someone's got to get the pieces in the right position.

Speaker 8 (58:37):
They and they say the budget is going to be
announced next month.

Speaker 1 (58:41):
Is it unlimited? What about Middletown with you. What about
Middletown's finest he's I think he's gonna stay right where
he bear. I don't know they have to trade Hunter
Green for a slugger in the middle of the lineup.

Speaker 8 (58:55):
One hundred and seventy one days now until opening day
and Rhett Louder remember him with the forearm injury and
everything else. He's scheduled to pitch in the Arizona Fall
League that starts today.

Speaker 1 (59:06):
You know where a Della Cruz belongs in the Arizona
Fall League, playing left or right field, preferably right field.

Speaker 8 (59:13):
National League Division Series Tonight, Dodgers and Fills at six,
LA up one, Oh, Cubs and Brewers in Milwaukee at
nine with the Brewers up one. Oh. Congrats to FC Cincinnati.
Big win on the road against those Red Bulls Saturday.
I think one zip that clinches Round one home field
advantage for the Orange and Blue.

Speaker 1 (59:35):
Why did they start that?

Speaker 8 (59:36):
Their eleventh road win of the season.

Speaker 1 (59:38):
That's pretty good.

Speaker 2 (59:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (59:40):
Regular season finale October the eighteenth of TQL Stadium against Montreal.

Speaker 1 (59:45):
The season ends the day before Christmas and then starts
again in January and starts again in January the first.
Jeff Birding tells me it's a year long process, and
that is exactly accurate. How many how many games do
their matches or play like thirty some matches? I think, yeah,
I'm close to it. Let's see.

Speaker 8 (01:00:04):
Also, Willie, the Roger Bacon and Anderson golf teams are
still out. Roger Bacon checking things out today in the district,
in the state tournament.

Speaker 1 (01:00:15):
That's it. The Spartan's beat up on San Ax and
Deer Park and golf. I told Wayne Caruchi to get
me advised they're playing today.

Speaker 8 (01:00:23):
Rosenfeldt is the head coach of the Roger Bacon team.
And good luck to Anderson. They're in action too. We
got to see what's going on. Today's going to be okay.
Tomorrow might be a little more iffy about the weather.
You agree, I mean that they'll play golf no matter what.
Probably do you have any hope at all for the
Red Spangles any?

Speaker 2 (01:00:42):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:00:43):
You know, yeah? I like the Reds. We got to
get a first baseman, a second baseman, a shortstop, a
third baseman, a left fielder, a right fielder because I
think fetals in center center. We got to get a
well they're all right, the thirty that keep bright. Hayes
just got to hit up. He can't hit well. Maybe
he gets better next year. I doubt it. What about Sal?

(01:01:05):
Where do you put Sal? Just call Sal? Call Sal?
Maybe at first and maybe left. I don't know. You
gotta tell Ellie. Can you tell Scott Borass his agent
that Ellie's gonna go to the Arizona League Now he's
gonna get ready to play right field next year? I
don't think so. Why not? This is not gonna happen.

(01:01:26):
I would demand it. What did Pete Rose do? He
went for a left field to third base? Good enough
for Pete Good in a different era. You're telling me
this is a way different era. In that back then,
you don't need a six foot six inch shortstop who
has a great arm and range. You need him in
right field, all at Dave Parker, Paul O'Neill, Glenn Braggs
need him in the right field. And then you bring Arroyo,

(01:01:49):
play him in short and tell McClain you're fighting for
your life right there, young man. Get Nick Kroll or
Brad Meter on the line, and then tell I don't
know Hayes until he's signed up for the next four years.
Haz's he's got a contract through almost twenty thirty. I
will see what happens. Well, let's see what happens. But
someone's gonna make these decisions. I wanted to I wanted

(01:02:10):
to be Tito. What about Tito. I don't think he's
going anywhere. He's got two more years. You think is
gonna bet? He's got the guts to tell him. Dela Cruz,
you are an outfielder. You're not as shortstop. There's no
six foot six inch shortstops in baseball anymore. They're not
He be Lyris moved their guy Cruise out too. You

(01:02:32):
can't let a player determine what position I'm gonna play.
You say, young man, you have the skills of an
outfielder because of your arm and speed. You're an outfielder.
You're not as shortstop. He began when he was thirteen
or fourteen, and you played shortstops and all of a sudden,
you grew eight inches in one summer.

Speaker 8 (01:02:48):
And maybe he won't airr as much. But do you
have twenty five twenty six, he.

Speaker 1 (01:02:52):
Said, fifty the last two years to lead the league
all time and errors by shortstop fifty errors two seasons.
Can't have it. And I traded Hunter Green for a
slugger in the middle of the lineup. I'll have Greg Vaughan,
Kevin Mitchell, That's what I do. Maybe Adam done get
him in, get him back here. Need somebody hit the comeback.

Speaker 3 (01:03:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:03:14):
I don't like him much, Sir and Griffy. He's put
on too much weight.

Speaker 9 (01:03:19):
He gets still hit though. I bet I bet he
could write. I bet you, I bet that's that's one.
That's a sweet swing right there. I don't know what
to tell. We have nothing but crisis ever everywhere. Look
but ill what cancer winning? FC Cincinnati's winning.

Speaker 1 (01:03:35):
That's it. And Elder, that was the greatest event you talk.
Let me ask you. That was the heart of the
West Side out there.

Speaker 8 (01:03:42):
You went to the tailgate, you arrived at the game,
you picked Moeler over Elder, even though it was at
the pit. How long did you stay? This is a
very key mobile.

Speaker 1 (01:03:54):
I'll give you the answer, but I want to explain it.
Did you did you laugh till last till halftime? Absolutely not. Okay,
we got there about five o'clock. Traffic was a bear
rolling around, et cetera. I watched the first series, Muller
went up seven zip and I left say give me
out of the student. By the way, that was the

(01:04:16):
greatest west side the character. There was no thought about
gunshots fired, start the game at four pm. That was
a wonderful experience. Elder, welcome me in, open arms and
thank you, say give me out a studio.

Speaker 8 (01:04:28):
Willie, and utter of a happy Monday at least somewhere
in America. We leave you with the immortal words of
the Stood Report.

Speaker 10 (01:04:36):
We got to settle down and just do our jobs.
Just settle down and do our jobs. Defensively, we got
to just settle down and just execute and do our jobs,
and just do your job. I think I said it
of three or four times over. It's a matter of
guy's got to just relax and do their jobs.

Speaker 1 (01:04:52):
Is that Marvin? Yeah, he take over. He's back in charge.
What the how many playoff games did he win? Wait
a minute on seven hundred WLW Bill Cunningham the Great America,
of course. Jef Creweir is a living legend in the

(01:05:14):
great State of Louisiana. He's certainly a podcaster. He's written books,
he's on radio. He thinks a lot, he has a
lot of columns at town hall dot com. I have
one up the FBI faces along Road to Redemption and
Jeff crue Air, Welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show.
Before we talk about James Combe and all that kind
of stuff, give me your sense of where we are.
We're about four or five days into the in the

(01:05:36):
government shutdown. All it would take is for the Democrats,
five or six more Democrats in the Senate to say,
you know what, enough is enough. We'll have a clean
cr and we're going to vote for the same continuation
of federal spending as we voted for in March. And
this is the Biden budget that concluded on October I'm sorry,
on September thirtieth, which is the fiscal of the US.

(01:05:57):
So we're about a week end of this thing right now.
Down the Republicans saying, well, let's just keep the Biden
budget going, and the Democrats are going nuts. Give me
your perspective if any.

Speaker 4 (01:06:08):
Yeah, I mean, I think the Democrats own this bill.
I mean, I think the Democrats are going to cave eventually.
Already three of them voted with the Republicans. And by
the way, Fetterman is looking like the most reasonable Democrat
in Congress, if only you had more Democrats like Fetterman.
But I do think they're going to They're going to
cave eventually. I think they're going to get the heat.

(01:06:29):
I think Republicans should just stand firm. Democrats are trying
to get in this what they couldn't get into one
big beautiful bill, which is basically healthcare for illegals. So
this is all on them. You know, as you said,
Schumer went ahead with the clean cr back in March.
In the interim, you got a lot of heat for

(01:06:50):
doing that. AOC is breathing down his neck, and you know,
it's politics, and he's worried about his position, and the
left wing is now with certain control, and then you know,
this is what we.

Speaker 2 (01:07:00):
End up with.

Speaker 1 (01:07:01):
I kind of have to think, Jeff Career, how does
this end. I assume it's going to be the next
payday to miss they have the federal workers have not
missed the pay day yet. The last one was September thirtieth,
the next one's the fifteenth, and so the paychecks are
supposed to come. And in the past, well, when these
eighteen other shutdowns took place, they were paid anyway. And

(01:07:22):
so we.

Speaker 11 (01:07:23):
Until the fifteenth, there's nothing, nothing much to do, So
this could go on for a while, and this will
give the Trumpster an opportunity to right size the federal government,
the bureaucracy, be careful for what you wish. Well, that's
what he talks about doing, and it'll be an opportunity
for him to make some serious cuts in government. I mean,

(01:07:43):
we know the government's too big. I mean, Bill, we've
got a thirty seven plus trillion dollar debt that we
have to take care of.

Speaker 4 (01:07:50):
And you know, the president has a unique opportunity here
should take advantage of it.

Speaker 3 (01:07:55):
And the Democrats are in disarray.

Speaker 4 (01:07:57):
They are totally all over the board on the far
far left. You don't have any voices of reason, really
very few, and the president is just driving them crazy.
They're just filled with anger. And you know they're talking
about the president being, you know, mentally incompetence. I mean,
of course they said nothing when Biden was president for

(01:08:19):
four years.

Speaker 3 (01:08:20):
They just said he was sharp as attack.

Speaker 2 (01:08:21):
And now they're worried.

Speaker 4 (01:08:22):
About the mental competence of the president. It's crazy.

Speaker 2 (01:08:25):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:08:26):
A few days ago ahead on Senator Ran Paul, the
only Republican in the Senate that voted against this. He
voted with Chuck Schumer, and he said, look, the Republicans
want to spend and borrow over this fiscal year, the
one coming up, this one about two trillion dollars, want
to borrow that, and that Democrats want to borrow three trillion.
And either it's two or three trillion. At some point

(01:08:48):
we're going to have one hell of a problem in
this country because if we're not the reserve currency, or
if the other nations of the world and certain funds
do not want to buy our debt, gonna need whalebarrows
going to the grocery store to get a loaf of bread.
And so doesn't Rand Paul have a point about borrowing
under Trump's plan and additional two trillion dollars every year

(01:09:11):
for the next several years. Doesn't he have a point?

Speaker 2 (01:09:14):
He?

Speaker 4 (01:09:14):
I mean, he has a great point. I mean, I
understand where he's coming from. I mean, I understand his
fiscal common sense. I mean he's one of the few
that really holds the line on spending. And he was
one of the few voices that called ethelies during COVID.
So I mean he's got a record as a truth Teller.
Problem is of course that you know, they they don't

(01:09:35):
have enough like him. I mean, he's out there on
an island and it's just him. So I mean we
need more that are that are fiscally responsible and give
him some you know, colleagues to work with. Right now,
I mean, it's just Ran Paul on the Senate side.
There's maybe one or two on the House side, but
he's right.

Speaker 3 (01:09:53):
I mean, we've got.

Speaker 4 (01:09:54):
To seriously reform spending. And that was one of the
problems with the One Big Beautiful Bill is because of
the added debt that it created. So that was a
legitimate criticism, but you know, the Republicans said that they
had to pass it otherwise we'd have these massive tax
increases which we can't allow.

Speaker 3 (01:10:13):
So you know, we we were stuck well, and I probably.

Speaker 4 (01:10:16):
Would have voted for it too, because I wouldn't want
to see any taxes go up either.

Speaker 1 (01:10:20):
You know, my friend Congressman Tom Massey was the one
in the House that said, no, we can't afford this.
Maybe there's something in the water in the state of Kentucky.
But nonetheless, part of this requirement of Chuck Schumer is
that the five hundred million the half of billion dollars
be issued to NPR within three days of opening the government,
and so I thought we had that debate concluded. The

(01:10:43):
NPR has its viewpoint. And the reason Democrats fight like
warrior poets to keep NPR is because they're a democratic outlet.
It's not well publicized. But the Democrats want five hundred
million dollars to refund NPR and PBS, and that's not
been well publicized.

Speaker 4 (01:11:04):
And we've got to stand firm against that because that's
already been decided. They want to revisit all these things bill,
which is what you're just talking about. By the way,
do you know that none of these PBS and PR
stations have gone out of business. I mean all of
them have been able to survive by asking their viewers
and listeners to donate. So they just had to cut

(01:11:27):
back some, but they're still on the air. None of
them have completely closed their doors. So they didn't need
all of this federal large s. They didn't need it.
So we've got to stand firm on that. We cannot
be funding any entities that just present one side of views.

Speaker 3 (01:11:44):
This is supposedly for the whole.

Speaker 4 (01:11:46):
Country, and they're all their board, all their programming, all
their executives are left wing, and we shouldn't be in
the business of left wing propaganda, Jeff, for no question,
we get back down on that bill.

Speaker 1 (01:11:58):
We can't fact down. They could fund you and me,
Maybe they could fund certain parts of conservative maybe they
co maybe they could find conservative talk radio that would
never happen. And the reason they fight so hard for
NPR and PBS, and the reason they fight so hard
for late night comics the Jimmies are unfunny is because
they represent democratic viewpoints. And the reason they fight so

(01:12:20):
hard for New York Times Washington Poast is because they're
the outlets of the radical left. We have to get
into this column here road on September twenty ninth, about
the FBI faces along road to redemption. Let's go over
the sins in the crimes of James Comy, going back
at least to twenty sixteen. Explain that to the American people.

Speaker 2 (01:12:40):
James Comy is a liar.

Speaker 4 (01:12:42):
He lied about the Steele dossier, He lied about Hillary
Clinton's emails. He should have prosecuted her, but he didn't.
He went after General Flynn in a very underhanded way.
He basically is a tool of the left that was

(01:13:03):
being used to try to bring down Donald Trump. He's
lied now that they have charged him with perjury. He
lied about what he did by you know, slipping information
to his friend who got it published. And what he
was trying to do as he was walking out the
door was to make sure that there would be a
Muller investigation going after the President, and he successfully got

(01:13:27):
this special counsel created, and you know, he lied about it.
So he's on record line as the President Trump posted,
it should be easy to be able to, you know,
get a conviction on this guy. The problem is that
the judge is a Biden appointed judge. So that's always

(01:13:48):
seems to be something that the Democrats benefit from.

Speaker 3 (01:13:52):
The venue is a little bit different. It's in you know, eastern.

Speaker 4 (01:13:57):
Virginia. It's not in d C, thank goodness. So maybe
we have a little bit better chance for justice. But
the Democrats have such built in advantages from the judges
to the juries to where the venis are. But this
man is a disgrace.

Speaker 1 (01:14:13):
Well yeah, you say in your column as FBI Director
James Comey was a disaster. He should have charged Hillary Clinton,
exonerated Donald Trump, and completely dismissed the bogus thele dossier.
He should never have authorized warrant applications based on lies
or sanctioned that should be leaked to the New York Times,
which was a crime. He summarily lied to Congress. In fact,

(01:14:36):
even CNN and those who represents the far left wing
have said, I've watched it. Well, James Comy lied. Of course,
he didn't tell the truth to Congress. But that's no
big deal because a lot of people lie to Congress.
So you have former US attorneys saying, well, of course
he lied to Congress, but let's face it, everyone does,
so it's okay. But just on the issue of charging
Hillary Clinton, for those who forgot the summer of twenty sixteen,

(01:15:00):
what did he say Hillary Clinton had done that should
have resulted in her indictment for maybe thirty three thousand counts?

Speaker 4 (01:15:09):
Yeah, I mean, he went through the whole list of
things that she had done. She lied, She lied over
and over and over again about her thirty three thousand emails.
But he made the bogus claim that no prosecutor would
indict her, and that, of course is another lie right there,
because I think any reasonable prosecutor would have he said

(01:15:30):
that they wouldn't, so I mean he was covering for her.
Even though Hillary is upset with James Comy because he
brought up the Anthony Wiener laptop towards the end of
the campaign and of course they went through the Anthony
when your laptop in record time was able to say
that they went through it all and there was nothing there.
But Hillary still has dug bitter towards James Comy, but

(01:15:54):
nothing compared to Donald Trump is what he did with
the President.

Speaker 3 (01:15:57):
So yeah, I.

Speaker 4 (01:15:59):
Think the President and that's happy about this indictment. I
think the American people should be. But he's not the
only FBI director who's lied. His successor lied as well.

Speaker 1 (01:16:09):
Christopher Ray, You say, no longer the FBAD director are
facing the same legal problems as James coming. Didn't Christopher
Ray lie about the two hundred and seventy five FBI
agents and informants working the Capitol on January the sixth.

Speaker 4 (01:16:24):
Yeah, he said he didn't believe that they were any
He didn't believe that they were any and they were
two hundred and seventy four. Now cash Bertel later said
that they were there, you know, after it had started
for crowd control either way, Christopher Ray knew very well
what was going on. I mean, we've been lied to
about Jay six from the beginning bill, you know about

(01:16:45):
the pipe bombers, the whole way that these protesters were
allowed to, you know, go in there. They've just opened
up the barricades and allow them to go in and
then charge them for that. And then there were the
instigators from Antifa and the police and the FBI, and
these people were set up, a lot of them, and

(01:17:07):
of course they were treated so horribly. And look at
how that George Floyd protesters were treated with kid gloves.

Speaker 1 (01:17:13):
Well, the one hundred thousand protesters on January sixth, it
was well known weeks in advanced planes, trains, buses, and cars.
The FBI knew what was coming. In fact, they embedded
these two hundred and seventy four or others into the
various crowds, which is a good tactic. They used it
with the Ku Klux Klan for a long time, but

(01:17:34):
they would never use it with Antifa. But nonetheless, that's
a different story. But they knew or should have known,
exactly what was planned because their agents were involved with
the groups coming to Washington to protest, and so of
course they knew, and Christopher Ray acted as if we
had no clue what was going on when they knew
what was going to happen.

Speaker 4 (01:17:54):
Yeah, and Christopher Rays the guy who said that the
biggest threat that we face is you know, white supremacists,
that they're the biggest threat to America.

Speaker 2 (01:18:04):
I mean, what a joke, what a liar.

Speaker 4 (01:18:07):
And of course his handling of the Jay six thing
has been atrocious.

Speaker 2 (01:18:11):
From the very beginning.

Speaker 4 (01:18:13):
I'm hoping that Cash Betel is going to give us
some answers about the pipe bomber, about you know, the
extent of these agents. Some good things are going on.
We got rid of some of the folks who were
kneeling when the old George Floyd mess was going on,
and we're trying to show there christ for social justice.

Speaker 3 (01:18:32):
Those folks have been fired.

Speaker 4 (01:18:34):
So that's a good step in the right direction.

Speaker 1 (01:18:36):
He's going to be a rain. Comby's going to be
a rain on October the ninth. Now, lastly, you have
a great part of your column that deals with Charlie Kirk,
and you have in here about Charlie Kirk and the
text messaging tether and fro that we need information now
about Charlie Kirk and talk about what you would like
to see happened with the assassin of Charlie Kirk. Mounting Q.

(01:19:00):
I need to answer. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:19:02):
I think there are a lot of questions, Bill. I
receive videos every day from people that are poking holes
and the official narrative. I mean we could spend hours
going through all the different theories that people have sent me.
There does seem to be a lot of distrust about
the official narrative. And you know why because you know
we've been lied to over the years. I mean, we

(01:19:23):
have not been told the truth about so many things,
from weapons of mass destruction to COVID to in my opinion,
the election, and you know Jay six, on and on
and on. So people are obviously distrustful. We're hoping Cash
Betel and Dan Bongenai, we're bringing integrity back to the FBI,
but we know that there's so many deep state folks

(01:19:43):
embedded in there. So there are questions that I'm hearing about.
You know, the videos that have been released about the shooter,
about the text messages. A lot of people just don't
buy the text messages, don't think that that's how twenty
two year olds communicate in their holes in the timeline
build the timeline doesn't really add up when you look

(01:20:05):
at the timeline. So it just is, you know, we
just need more information. We need to have more disclosure
about what happened. This is a man who is a
hero to millions of Americans, and he was known to
millions of Americans and now he's gone, and there needs
to be full disclosure about. You know, where we stand
as far as the investigators, well, to.

Speaker 1 (01:20:26):
Me, the biggest hole to me are the drones. According
to one report, I saw the six to ten members
of Charlie Kirk's security team when they went to the site.
They looked up and saw three or four buildings about
two hundred yards away, and they said, we have to
get those buildings covered. They were thinking about the assassination
attempt on Donald Trump and Butler County, Pennsylvania, and so

(01:20:48):
they were said, we have drone technology with us, and
we can put drones over the top of those buildings
where a sniper might be and we can monitor who's
on the roof and who is it on the roof.
And the security team for Charlie Kirk was told by
campus police we'll have that covered, don't worry about it.
And look what happened.

Speaker 4 (01:21:07):
Well, And I've been told that there was like six
policemen from the university that were at the event, I
mean six, and we had, I mean thousands of people
that were there. So there was a massive error in
the security, just like there was in Butler, Pennsylvania. And
I mean, I think a lot of us still have

(01:21:28):
questions about the Secret Service, and some recent incidents have
occurred that have raised more questions about the Secret Service.
So I think again people are distrustful of the official
narrative that they're hearing, and you know, we need to
get to the bottom of what happened here. So were
we being told that there was just another quote unquote

(01:21:48):
loan wolf wolf who was able to get all of
it done by himself, right, get up there, disassemble the rifle,
get down somehow.

Speaker 1 (01:21:56):
Get it in the woods, in the woods, and then
to be discovered, to be discovered in there, and take
it with him to be discovered. And I'm thinking, where
are the drones? What assassin leaves the weapon behind, disassembles it,
leaves him in the woods, go back. I don't get it.
Jeff curR. Let's keep the lines open of communication New

(01:22:18):
Orleans and your columns are always a town hall. Jeff
creeir dot Net and Jeff continue to question. Thanks for
coming on the Bill Cunningham Show, and Jeff, you're a
great American. Thank you always a pleasure.

Speaker 2 (01:22:31):
Thank you Bill appreciation.

Speaker 1 (01:22:32):
Let's continue with more drones. We got that covered and
it wasn't and Charlie Kirk is dead. Bill Cunningham on
seven hundred WLW.

Speaker 10 (01:22:41):
We gotta settle down and just do our jobs. Just
settle down and do our jobs. Defensively, We've got to
just settle down and just execute do our jobs and
just do your job. I think I said it of
three or four times over. It's a matter of guys
got to just relax and do their job. Just execute
your assignment and get it done.

Speaker 1 (01:22:59):
I got to do my job.

Speaker 10 (01:23:00):
We've got to do a better job. I got to
prepare them better. They got to go out and they
got to execute their jobs better. Okay, just squarely with
squarely on me. I don't know that the opponent matters.
You just got to do your jobs. I don't think
there goes into a thing. Uh, you know, we've got
to do their jobs. Whether you're on the road, whether
you're at home, they're playing football, and it's just the
execution of football.

Speaker 7 (01:23:20):
You know what I'm saying, Hello, Quiet, I'm broadcasting.

Speaker 4 (01:23:34):
Rock.

Speaker 1 (01:23:34):
What'd you do glean from the comments of Marvin Lewis?
Did you glean something of try to make a point?
What was the what was the point? We got to
do her job? I think you know the same point
about one hundred times.

Speaker 9 (01:23:46):
Here's it, so, Bengo, here's here's a couple of stats
for I'll score sixty nine to nine in the first
halves of the last three games.

Speaker 1 (01:23:54):
Sixty nine, Tony, that's not good.

Speaker 9 (01:23:58):
At one point, well, Jake Browning was a leading rusher
for the Bengals, and at one point Jamar Chase was
the leading tackler.

Speaker 1 (01:24:05):
Because he was tackling the interceptions. So Jamar Chase number
one in tackling?

Speaker 2 (01:24:11):
Good?

Speaker 1 (01:24:11):
Did you get a defensive triple crown?

Speaker 9 (01:24:14):
Now that the fourth quarter might have saved Jake Browning's
job for a week quarters completely awful, awful.

Speaker 1 (01:24:23):
It's the best quarterback.

Speaker 9 (01:24:24):
It's just it's hard because he is trying to operate
in an offense design for Joe Burrow, who again just
glosses over lots of other inefficiencies and is so good
throwing the ball in timing and seeing the right rate
and making quick decisions. Jake Browning needs a run game.
If you look back, what was he last year was
four and three as a starter? Was that last year

(01:24:44):
or two years ago? But they were to run the
ball a little bit better. But he don't have a
run game to lead on.

Speaker 1 (01:24:50):
Who's the best quarterback in Cincinnati? Said Maler's Matt Pontosk.
Is he the best quarterback in Cincinnati? I would say
Canice Camp Elders quarterback? I was there for the game,
Rock Did I tell you what?

Speaker 9 (01:25:01):
It was unbelievable. Everyone that I talked to it was there,
said it was unbelievable.

Speaker 1 (01:25:05):
I tried to get there at five o'clock, barely got
into five point fifteen, to the to the tailgate parties,
massive tailgating, and uh, then you go into the game,
got in about Quarridal six an iron fifteen and walked around.
It was at six o'clock, an hour ahead of time.
There wasn't a seat anywhere to be found. That that

(01:25:26):
was an incredible experience.

Speaker 9 (01:25:28):
Yeah, and they just redid that field and in the
off season, so beautiful looking field and.

Speaker 1 (01:25:32):
They're praying before the game. Then they kicked Maller's ass.
I spoke to Father Anthony Browch, who, as you know,
is the chaplain of Elder. Yes, and I kind of
misconstrued a couple of his remarks an hour ago. I said,
I said to him, go tell those boys that Maler
was going to kick their ass. And I'm not sure.
Father Browse said that, Well maybe he didn't. It fired
them up. Well, I didn't want to cause that. Then

(01:25:54):
he sent me a little text and said the following,
I remember it differently than you. He said, I have
every confidence of the men of Elder. Tell your listeners.
I said that I have compident. I think you're also
when he said it's what I said, I think you
kick their ass, that's what. And he did not relate
that to the team.

Speaker 9 (01:26:14):
I think you're also remembering it differently when you picked
Mulder to win the game.

Speaker 1 (01:26:18):
If I'm not mistaken, right sake correct? And now here you.

Speaker 9 (01:26:21):
Are and your go Panthers go look at you. You
are unbelievable jumping on.

Speaker 1 (01:26:28):
I saw Doug Ramsey before the game. I said, yourself,
I'm wearing purple on Monday if you win, he said,
you'll be wearing purple. Guys here, I am am I
wearing purple.

Speaker 9 (01:26:38):
That quarterback Elder has a real deal and he said Junior.
And if I'm not mistaken, I think he lives in
like Liberty Township.

Speaker 1 (01:26:47):
And he said, I love Elder. If you play in
that high school atmosphere once you're saying I'm going Elder,
that is unbelievable.

Speaker 9 (01:26:56):
To be fair, a lot of gCO games have that atmosphere.
I don't know about that, but it's not saying played
in a bunch. A bunch doesn't have that sat By
the way, one they beat Louisgo Trinity, one of the
honestly one of the best teams in Kentucky a field right,
they did, so santax is coming back is what you're
coming back? By the way, Brayin Riley Braydon Riley for

(01:27:16):
Saint X, who's committed Northwestern. Two punts, blocked, nine tackles,
an interception, He's got done. He's a man, great player,
He's a man. But uh well, here's a question. Who's
in worst shape right now, the Reds, the Bengals.

Speaker 1 (01:27:31):
Or Mark Sanchez I'm taking Mark Sanchez too. He's looking
at a hard time daddy in Indiana doesn't mess around
this gun, unlike Ohio, you do this stuff in Indiana.
What is he doing?

Speaker 9 (01:27:42):
What is a grown man doing out at twelve thirty
drunk on a work trips?

Speaker 1 (01:27:47):
Is a grown man? He's like not seven years old,
six three, two twenties, like forty years old almost, And
he isn't an Allen Indianapolis drunk and he's beating up
a sixty nine year old man who's work and the
guy looks like he's dead. I saw that. You've seen
the I just wonder if he if mentally he's still
going through something.

Speaker 9 (01:28:05):
If you recall Mark Sanchez, he led the Jets to
the AFC Championship Game two years in a row, I
want to say, like two thousand and eight, two thousand
and nine, and.

Speaker 1 (01:28:14):
Then the next year he had the butt fumble.

Speaker 2 (01:28:17):
Oh years ago. We talked to Tom Moore than an
Indianapolis the offensive court, n he get a busted play
here and then Lens.

Speaker 1 (01:28:23):
Sanchez gets hit. The ball is loose and it's alive.
I have never seen this before in my life. Watch this.

Speaker 12 (01:28:30):
Vince wille Fork is gonna throw Brandon Moore back into
his quarterback. He's gonna fumble the football. This is what
Reggie White used to do to people fork left him
and just lift them off the ground. Mark Sanchez not
expecting it, and it was the backside of Brandon Moore
to knock the ball.

Speaker 1 (01:28:50):
Out the ass.

Speaker 7 (01:28:53):
Guy.

Speaker 1 (01:28:54):
A couple of things in that guy. Never if that happens.

Speaker 9 (01:28:57):
If Mark Sanchez plays for the Bengals, the Titans, literally
any other team but a New York team, it's not
blown into mythic proportions.

Speaker 1 (01:29:05):
The butt fumble. The butt fumble New.

Speaker 9 (01:29:07):
York and Mark Sanchez probably has a career. But after
that play he goes in the tank. I believe he
was let go the next year, never played for another team.

Speaker 1 (01:29:17):
Butt fumble killed him.

Speaker 9 (01:29:18):
Now he's beating up old guys right the butt fumble
in New York. You just can't do it again. If
he plays for the Cleveland Browns, it's a it's a
it's a not so top ten play on Sports Center,
and that's it doesn't live forever.

Speaker 1 (01:29:32):
I got from Elders Faithful step lives in South Lebanon
with Cash Hamburgy. You know he said Westchester. I said,
Liberty Township. It's more or less the same thing, the
same thing south eleven, the same thing by some furniture,
same point as he passes by Moeller and say next,

(01:29:53):
I forgot dear park right to get to Elder because
and Elder's not you know around Elder looks like Section
eight housing gone back is not the best inside the
four walls inside that you're good. You're in. You're in
heaven right there? Man? Did you eat it? Price ill Chili?
I tell you what. Kraft Electric had a freebie and
I went there with Johnny Craft and I ate like
condemned prisoner along with Notre Dame's Finest.

Speaker 9 (01:30:15):
How long did you stay? That's the key who's Notre
Dame's Finest. He's from Kyle Rudolph. He was there, his
sister was there.

Speaker 1 (01:30:23):
I set high to him nice and we did a
event together with uh in Green Township with him a
few years ago. But uh, a guy named Shinnon doing
Duke Way? Can you can you say Shinnon doing Duke
Way three times? Like a businessman in town right and
builds he builds thing stuff. He was there. Well, you
don't don't want to talk to him loud? You want
to keep your voice down with talking to him. But

(01:30:44):
but none, leave me to it. But yes, but nonetheless
Shinnon doing Duke Way was there with his kid. I mean,
it was unbelievable atmosphere. Nobody can go there and say
I don't want to play football at ELBA. That was
the greatest, better than say next. By the way, I'll be.

Speaker 9 (01:30:57):
There every every gCO game looks that one. Okay game,
but you should, but you never take me. You're never here.

Speaker 1 (01:31:05):
I'm out of town. I can't go myself. But how
did Elder do with st X? I've become a fan
of Elder right now, I'm on the imagine that say
job Purple. I told Ramsey, I'll were purpose me. Didn't
get it, Get get a good get a free shirt
and a hat. They gave that to me. That's what
I figured. But you know, I'm an Elder fan now

(01:31:27):
I've seen the Promised Land. It's Elder. But don't walk
outside the four walls of Elder. True that makes Section
Section eight housing look good. But inside the walls they
have full enrollment. And what a program had a great
game plan. How did Elder do with sant X? By
the way, they won? They being Elder beat them easy, right,

(01:31:47):
it was easy. And his park took it on the
chin too. Against Mary Mount, the home of the park,
took it on the chin. Coraine took it on the chin. Well,
it got them wins. Bombers win.

Speaker 9 (01:32:01):
Bombers win against Louisvio Trinity, Yeahurgly lost some more by
three our house in the Bluegrass.

Speaker 1 (01:32:08):
Well, Moler rise and beat Elder in the regional finals.
Could be all three of those teams team each other
gain Elder is good?

Speaker 2 (01:32:17):
Is good?

Speaker 1 (01:32:18):
Yep, say give me some sports and make it welly
The stoot reporters of proud service of your local Thamestar
Heating and air Conditioning dealers, Thamestar Quality. You can feel
a greater Cincinnati called pory in precision comfort five one
three nine zero four one two Sports Bengals Up.

Speaker 8 (01:32:39):
They brought to you by Good Spirits and Party Town
thirteen locations in northern Kentucky. David Montgomery had away ten
years to play another game in his hometown, and he
did it yesterday touchdown pass and a scoring run. The
former Ohio Division III Player of the Year out of
Mount Healthy, the home of the Owls.

Speaker 1 (01:32:56):
How about that? Can he play maybe for the Bengals.
Could he switch side?

Speaker 9 (01:33:01):
We could use a run game, but he would want
to player because we need better run blockers.

Speaker 1 (01:33:05):
We don't have those right now. A line of Brown
call him the matador. Brown is the Matador.

Speaker 8 (01:33:09):
Some of them were ghosts ole getting ready for Halloween.
Bengals line six five seven hundred WLW Tonight. They're on
the road next week again in the frozen tundra of
Green Bay, Wisconsin. And the pack is a fourteen and
a half point favorite.

Speaker 1 (01:33:27):
May need more?

Speaker 9 (01:33:28):
What do you think Rock already a fourteen point dog early?
How are you looking?

Speaker 1 (01:33:33):
Not good?

Speaker 8 (01:33:36):
Monday Night Football Kansas City and Jacksonville seven on ESPN
fifteen thirty, the Home of MO and then Bengals linebacker
Jake Golday is the Big twelve Defensive Player of the Week,
twelve tackles in a sack and the upset win over
Iowa State Saturday that Rock sold out to the brick
State America lost.

Speaker 1 (01:33:55):
Part of that game got really good. What if somebody
told you the first week in October neither Penn State
nor Texas will be in the top twenty. It's unbelievable.
Now u SE's got a better team than Penn State
or Texas. It's great.

Speaker 9 (01:34:07):
It's hard to me and I think you can point
this in Il a little bit on this and then
transfer portal. It's just the talent is more spread out.
There's no dominant teams. It's also hard to get a
gauge on team because there's so many new players. I
had memphisis past week and they had seventy two new players.

Speaker 1 (01:34:24):
That's not like.

Speaker 9 (01:34:24):
Super uncom pretty good, right, Yeah, So it takes a
great coach and a lot of money to get him
in and get him the right spot and get them
believing and all that. It's tough, but you' it's creating parody,
is what I'm saying. And as a college football viewer,
that's what you want. You know, the day there, you know,
it wasn't a time that not long ago, it was
gonna be Alahlabama, Georgia, Ohio State, Clemson.

Speaker 1 (01:34:45):
That's it, and that was it. That's the only four
teams that had a chance. Speaking of that, put a
hard glade. You brought that up. Knocked out North North, Carol.
You said Bill Belichick would win seven games. I said
they would go to a bowl, which which bowl? The
Tarlet Bowl, which but I let's see what they may
not go to a bowl, would you right now? I

(01:35:06):
mean I got a text here from Lambeau Field that
is a larger pit. The pit and Lambeau are together
as far as places to watch football.

Speaker 5 (01:35:15):
Rock.

Speaker 1 (01:35:15):
If you'd gone to the pit when you were an
eighth grader, you would have been a pitch star. You
would not have gone to Saint X. Plus you get
a better education. It's not sure much better education.

Speaker 9 (01:35:24):
Let's see North Carolina has a win over Charlotte is terrible, okay, terrible.
They gotta play Cow. And again that's why you don't know.
Before the season, I would have said Cow would be
terrible because their quarterback H Francisco Mendoza transferred to IU,
may be terrible. They're actually pretty good. Virginia is pretty good.
Virginia's rank number nineteen. They could lose boats Syracuse his decent.

(01:35:48):
Stanford is not Wake Forest, not Duke, NC State. So
you're asking me one of their wins right now for
North Carolina is an FCS team, doesn't count now. I
think they said they allow one CS win now not
too well.

Speaker 1 (01:36:02):
He completed the year. I said he will win four games.
Then he win four games.

Speaker 9 (01:36:06):
They're going to find a way to get Bill Belichick
on a bowl game if they is, he.

Speaker 1 (01:36:09):
Ruined himself as far as his memory does he care
about ten million dollars more than his memories.

Speaker 9 (01:36:17):
Obviously in his head. He doesn't think he's going to
go there and fail. Well, you know, he can't control
college co eds. He can't control college football.

Speaker 1 (01:36:24):
He's controlling one college cod pretty much fair. In fact,
I see online they're setting a date to be married.
She wants to have a family Belichick style, that's it.
If he comes up pregnant, that's it.

Speaker 2 (01:36:37):
We're on a Cincinnati.

Speaker 1 (01:36:38):
Yeah, he'll be honest enough to pass nothing about the futures.

Speaker 2 (01:36:41):
Right now we're Cincinnati.

Speaker 1 (01:36:42):
He will be one hundred and fifty years old with
a kid going to high school. He's on a Jordan.
I mean he's on. After the game, those two were
hugging walking outside of the stadium and the stands were empty.
In got a hugers play the game that you know,
trick play. They go up top.

Speaker 9 (01:36:57):
It's seven to nothing Clemson before anybody even sat in
their seats.

Speaker 1 (01:37:02):
He can handle the college coed was doing good. He
can handle college athletes, but he can handle college co.

Speaker 8 (01:37:09):
Ed who might be out first Rock Franklin at Penn
State or Fickle at Wisconsin.

Speaker 1 (01:37:15):
I think Franklin's in trouble. U c l A is bad.
Then one game, no coach, no coach, no and the coaches.

Speaker 9 (01:37:23):
I guess it was my Eyes's kid was talking about
like during the during the game, he's like, yeah, I
you know, I have the headset on and I forget that.

Speaker 1 (01:37:30):
I have to pull the thing down to talking to
like you.

Speaker 9 (01:37:34):
Forgot they lost the guy who never never been at
coach Houston worshiped Belichick for Sanchez Sanchez Sanchez, He's going
to do some hard time, Dad, hard time.

Speaker 1 (01:37:44):
I don't stab a six and nine year old guy
beat him up.

Speaker 9 (01:37:47):
Look men out there, if you're like you know, over
the age of thirty five, forty.

Speaker 1 (01:37:54):
Yeah, forty, you can't be getting.

Speaker 9 (01:37:56):
Drunk and getting into scuffles at home at twelve thirte
Stay in the hotel, runny business on FaceTime, your kids
go to sleep.

Speaker 8 (01:38:06):
You know your role and shut your mouth to tell
Bill Belichick that what about Jordan some stuff out of
the mini bar watch TV. There you go, that's it,
But don't get in a fight with an old man.

Speaker 1 (01:38:19):
God, you can't park there. Huh what you are here?
You believe my job? Truckers? Good bye? Why I'm in
that alliot? After midnight, nothing good happen and they start
wailing away on each other.

Speaker 9 (01:38:33):
Like every football coach you've ever had is always says
that nothing good happens after midnight, and it's largely true.

Speaker 1 (01:38:38):
Tell the little rock that wall you I already have,
get me out on the Students Report. What's on the
big show tonight? To all right?

Speaker 9 (01:38:44):
Out of the gate, Eddie and I are going to
break down this Bengals game the backle We have Jeremy Rosenthal,
who's out of all Yeah. On the Diddy trial at
four o'clock. Yeah, then we have the one, the only,
Dave Lapham at five o'clock. Oh many other things in between.

When's the Ring of Honor is coming up soon? I
would assume end of the month. All right, say give
me out the Stood's Report? Will he in honor of
the Bearcats?

Speaker 9 (01:39:08):
Bill Belichick, Elder Bill Belichick and more, Luke Fickle, We
leave you with the immortal words of the stud Report.

Speaker 7 (01:39:18):
At some point, this foolishness has got to stop.
