Curt Schilling finally speaks! Barry and June discuss his comnents

I put in just north of fifty million dollars I think one also done around. Scoreboard and that's still still trying to figure out exactly with the storm Robinson got none of that -- back no no you it was all well and then -- -- If I don't it's it I don't I don't wanna item and obviously it's it's been a challenging couple months and I can imagine but I don't I'm not. Now asking for sympathy here and I'd I'd I mean that was my choice -- chose to do this -- wanted to build this of 15. To create the jobs and create something that had a very long standing. World changed facts. But I this morning and WEEI. You an interview with the Curt Schilling over bad dancing talent and show and you know it on June 7 they filed for for -- bird bird chapter seven -- bankruptcy. Yeah he he said you know I guess the main reason. They need to raise capital in and they could do it inexpensive industry. You got put in fifty million of his own money taken a lot of errors that we think about you know he -- I don't you know I I think it's if someone. Is is hurtful. Mean spirited person and and means to hurt others which I don't think he did a year and a -- and he being mentored her -- anybody I think his intentions were good but. Yes what all the red flags were there that this probably wasn't gonna work out in any kept goal in -- but you know that's that's this pain at the -- the. All the -- I do wonder though. Because I'm hearing that both state and federal regulators are in their looking at the books in and checking out what was going on that does make yet again tie yeah. That makes you suspicious smoke not any -- now you know lots of companies go bankrupt all the time right. But to have the regulators in there looking at your books and records. And everything to look at for. I mean what he thinks could be they're probably look at it with that money was used to do you what was used with what what what happened that money in the league Kirk voted fifty million of his own money we know Citizens Bank is. Jason emperor for money so it doesn't appear. As if he was hiding cash now or -- laundering money or anything like that rate but there in there they're looking at -- the books and records the other. Criticism that -- -- in order to start his company. But isn't he said he is and how that correlates of this is and understand how now and he noted I guess tax credits are available to all companies that invest in film or video games -- does that correlate to. A bloody go to Rhode Island and Rhode Island would give the tax Massachusetts wouldn't have an editor on that back. The good things that are hanging out their for the guys that he's got to. He's going to be forced to address we have during the the next several years and yes and here's the sad part Mary he said the money. He told his family. It literally last month he sat them down. You know after dinner one -- he's like look the money I saved earning. Went out playing baseball it's probably all gone he said life. Is going to be it's going to be a lot different for us this. I'd like to see why do -- when I like to see him do is go on television and Rhode islanders go on radio station or I would love to have a Monday show. But those people in Rhode Island are affected so much there the ones who are really paying the price that he should be talking to them to taxpayers -- -- The people at the you know the -- politicians work in Rhode Island it. Gave him the green light to get to do this -- all those red flag you're saying there I guess Bain Capital even turned it down everyday would be that everybody can. Everybody turn it down so I talked to a couple my clients who live in Rhode Island who are. Somewhat cynical on on this whole topic -- they felt. That Rhode Island got hoodwinked in these are you know hard working long. Time residents of Rhode Island and they said you know that Barry really what it amounted to is the politicians wanted to have their pictures taken with Curt Schilling she's -- that's. 7075. Million dollars. With a photo right now that's an expensive -- up but you know you gotta look at what we do the same thing here in Massachusetts we give away. Hundreds of millions of dollars in tax credits. Every year. And you know we've got what was the name of that company Evergreen Solar oh yeah we -- isn't it we did a she 38 studios take deal. With Evergreen Solar and I think that cost the Massachusetts taxpayers. About fifty million that one bad deal. On I mean you gonna say that the road around politicians did all -- -- an error it just heaven sakes they're businesspeople don't they stay idling however their own people look this is a bad deal for Rhode Island. Clearly it's -- very bad in people deal for Curt Schilling and and governor Chafee. Mean and and he's got that some other news story came on he had some sort of an underage drinking parties house or something last week or some crazy group. Another -- get yourself and I'll I'll dig out this of that house gone out this guy that's. All things it's reeks of photo ops is all that really is. All angles JP -- guys. These -- go down it's just yet -- it Chafee was not the governor win not win the money was given out and he ran on a platform saying on the post. So now he's trying to get reelected and I was the guy who oppose this to be and you can't get -- come on the air isn't the case you I think will be able to get -- and I think you want to get our needed some time to get us together yes and and probably need some time doctor butler's you know if if he's under investigation. In the companies being in checked out by regulators I guarantee news lawyers are dictating when he's on the top and I bet he's been. Losing a lot of sleep at night in his want -- to get this off his chest he's wanna -- on -- eighties and I just wanna be you know on a personal -- and I don't know Curt Schilling have never met him on a personal level. But I can tell you we live in the same town. And he's been a big guy. For community involvement. You know he's not he's not one of those rich snobs it doesn't talk to anybody. He is he is kids interact with the other kids in the community. He does volunteer work I mentioned he he donated baseball field it's called the show on -- chilling. -- -- you we have yet she has -- negotiate foundation and her staff to. DOC he does he does a lot of terrible works this is not a bad guy this is not a villainous type individual. But he's got a problem.
