And he said that he had lost. Fifty million bucks. Fifteen million box on non. Studio 38 down there his it is the -- socialist a piece that just sounded. You know. Crazy jock talk you know like he was wasn't a very bright shock like he says we wanted to change the world I mean -- how -- changed the world -- video games but. You know the thing is. He really he really try to make the company work I mean I know that the state trial lost 75 million parks. But. When I read that that he had to take I read a couple weeks ago that he had taken he had five million dollars in -- I guess it was Oakland necklace and Michael's average post guys push -- all the time. And is he -- five million bucks worth a gold he cashed at all -- so at that point it figured out who cashed in his goal to probably probably cashed in every night. You know they always say you know use OPM other people's money when you about when you're expander when you when you make an investment. But that I use the -- he threw everything he had at this thing and and it claims he got double crossed by Leo Lincoln Chafee via. The moon -- governor. Of Rhode Island pretty you know chief a year achieve peace father was the he comes from one of the old Yankee families in the statement. His father Wednesday Republican governor and senator. And after the father died of a heart attack Lincoln JP was appointed to the seat he he was a Republican for a while one. Then the that he became an independent because he just keeps the story George Bush and he's just -- He's just take a classic moon bat of the -- -- Yankee the Yankee variety like like camera. Or like or like White House the guy who actually shot the White House -- actually beat him. Claiborne -- going back you know the sort of a Claiborne -- He he he went to was it -- it was a -- one day in and he said the 100 school. -- one good -- Shlomo going get me Shlomo. Rumors on the normally Mormon -- we going to be who Roland in this world and in so I went -- near -- are -- Michael asks or whatever you wanna call him. Robbers and bar brought him back in and and Claiborne -- put them on to say it is a very noise were did you get the eighties. And -- -- chance. And Claiborne -- said Wilma exploded -- seat hall new -- -- whole law. What is net source what -- other names was stillborn. But anyway I mean this is this the cars so -- but now there are now they're kind of like a moon bats you know they they're not the most humorous. As the all time guys were like like -- power that the it org or seen the reports named after. They're just they're just annoying but he but you know he -- Showing says that he that the that the every time he had a problem he would call up by chief -- chief -- staff. And like it within an hour that the press would know about it. And that he just made it really difficult it's so he couldn't you it was like it was hamstring and I'm trying to get more people -- 21. Invest money to keep it to keep -- -- so. I don't know does anyone else feel sorry for the script that feel sorry for showing or do you just think used to to -- stupid.

A fool and his money are soon part of you know and I know you know that is the you know with the quest for a what does that older faster horses younger women older whiskey. But this wasn't this when the case for showing me Schilling was trying to was trying to do some OpenId Indy and getting try to obviously make a bar for himself but he wasn't. He wasn't trying to rip anybody off he's not though like -- like those guys those two guys you know those duke duke basketball players from -- they actually weren't trying to rip anybody off view they just to know what they were going. And they they they they blow money trying to develop real -- in downtown garment had worked out. As of lately there's an equally -- Christian late owner and and somebody else supposed to play anyway what do you think about. Really -- showings a situation you feel bad formed a BC I don't think he's. You know you have fifty million box you've been -- this this this life for a 1520 years and all of a sudden you're gonna have to get by on your money is -- As an ESPN color announcer. They just don't think it's it's gonna quite work out the side and I don't think he's gonna have a lot to -- Better find something else to do. 187 -- and I am almost just say this because he's a Republican I mean I I do appreciate that he went up against the that he went up for a George Bush in 2004 after the bloody soccer series. -- helped bush. When New Hampshire. But. He he's he he. He he talks -- grief in the glow to mean you -- it did when he first -- the trouble there was one day and it was a Friday. There -- three columns in the globe. Three columns and that's that is still in one day. One that was sports column in news column and a business column every every front page section. Separately if the front page had a story ripping him to shorts. And of course. There haven't been there's still haven't been three columns written down on. Down on granny Warren from whine about Ambien and the where bill your next with how we cargo ahead bill. -- it's part of the globe that emerged that the old legal political.

They're going locals -- cubicle that do that. No you're right you're right not know they never take any grief about that and and you know nobody ever accuses John Henry of rob in the cradle right. You know with his like his is I divide -- -- thirty years forty years younger than him either right. Well I agree I -- -- are reaching out to a record it's cheap although it. -- you that there are neutral or. -- -- it illegal it should outlaw a you know so. You know particular to idiot but you know. -- you know that stupid Jose both Porsche calls all the street people sure that it but it wouldn't people Carlo with a walk guys. -- -- -- Does -- like put that well but every. Or political caught a good you know -- -- the greens -- mutual is -- it would -- so much. You know it's like that but I shall go that its order book after that. And how we use all the stuff about the actually win that the globe and Deval Patrick Kirkland sorting with -- -- and the the emails and memos this week in the world. But -- at the globe is consorting with this guy. Gordon who's got Kate and -- to why it took to push this thing and it's gonna cost taxpayers a lot more money than than than than Curt Schilling ever dreamed of taking you know again you're right nobody.

I think I think it's war but know that when it so it is such as it took it. -- only deficit. Yeah there's -- law that does does this ever bit the bit that is that as you know. The tools it. I hit that hit the go to although -- economic approach off it this far out where all the wall. Question what would do so but. Thanks for the call -- 1877469432218774694322. I guarantee a -- if Curt Schilling have been a a liberal pity of it but it just kept his mouth shut people would be it is that you wouldn't be getting ripped the way he's been getting ripped in the papers they wouldn't they would that it was like. Lynch mob chasing him around me that. You know an old devolved didn't give many money great work there or your source Smart in the whenever mentions this evergreen which was our own personal slender. Now mean. 5050 million I mean 50000075. Million mean. Cause studio 38 had a better shot of succeeding them ever green dead. Tom your next with how we cargo ahead Tom. And -- I don't. Ali what -- -- -- apparently CEO -- 200 we don't care about them. Now we have another guy -- -- -- -- -- he was a bond lark a bond -- He got a nice -- changed didn't need unity you know they're Curt Schilling put his own money up try to employ people. Are disgusting that. An -- and open them on the -- here. They're shutting Irvine now because -- bit smaller yeah. Well it -- yeah. I EI and I know I noted there were fair haven to likely be adding to more popular in fair haven in the our alma. And I want my question when you come under UK big sorry. I don't -- -- Armitage -- July 13 I'll be on the LB at the a masters of suspense at the Kate -- resort. I'll -- certificate now. I think it's it was -- you know much it is to get them. City. She's not here. OK I don't you know what I don't total love go to K water resort dot com Kate -- resort dot com or call 8558614370. I'll be there are -- will be there and so Casey Sherman and -- -- So well will be talking about -- this Boston strangler in the Gardner museum -- thanks for the call pop it even if you don't buy a ticket I'll be you know will be hanging around you can be you can now buy a copy of the book grab some new magnets in the kind of stopped will be around. 18774694322. Mike you're next with how we cargo ahead Mike. You know I worked outside Akron children's palace or right after they won the sooners. And that these tilt options and it's yeah. It is open it's also up all -- -- the deal. A couple of cops. And they say it was really it is like this is there were lots of people adult which was this badly. As the god of all I -- approximately fifty million dollars in -- on. And in or not such a long shot like -- three kids at the -- Korea by. That that's you know that's that it is now I I've search result he was a liberal laws such an outspoken conservative. Solve all. But it would have tried to carry them all -- the finished like I just the I think he had up against it because it was so certainly outspoken. And I don't think they're really -- and reduces. Agrees that the that are real doubts bought a little water to Somalia. Which is that it didn't block the ball the picture can't. Yeah that Massachusetts with that African technically be yet. This is front page news for a week it's this -- -- it could talk about the double standard it was a outspoken liberal. Blair and I'll betcha that you would should be really about. -- -- -- But the pride that they don't chase around the mafia bosses in Providence like they were chasing him around the you know. That would struck away to try and make something work I -- I think that would have given a more money than what I. They would've done something I have to still play its failed but I applaud the -- really I truly feel bad because. The local ops that Williams it was not a -- -- -- the thereby. They said that it was just the really one of the nicest that are objectionable wanna meet and he tried to employ people attracted you all the -- It paid well so I mean these -- -- orange jobs these were good pay and jobs. I guess we should look at a guy like that -- new console and you know that the people that -- excited actually it'll help make that work it. Next time around against Ali. Yeah thanks for the call Mike 187746943221. Mates I mean you read his columns of the globe and I mean there really happy that he went down in and they don't end. And again. They could care less about video games they could care less about you know fit all of them all the matters is he was for George Porsche. He he campaigned with George Bush that the matter that the anti camping with Scott Brown but that's not what count. Where his his mortal sin in the in their eyes is that he campaigned with George Bush. In 2004. And as far as they're concerned he he that's that's something he can never ever be forgiven form. Chris your next with -- cargo ahead -- You know debate the issue -- in and night of the -- -- should look into it -- State college -- money research development money -- that you mass they're probably. Shelling out -- chilling out who are obsessed with billions of dollars. -- Not think it creates jobs and you know it and what Schilling yet where is it money try and commercialize the product. And you'll think you guilty of is growing fast. Because that was the only way. Get access to that capital under those that -- tax credit men that are out yeah so you can not all of them. Were playing by the rules. And -- you know you're right it is the total double standard and -- shot. At how much you know pop up here and they're being on the money is going to. Note the university. -- in this. Resurgent development but it's -- lap and it didn't create one damn job. -- -- there was some -- they came out some -- some mob budget group today in the east they they spent billions in the government spent something like sixty billion dollars screen 900 jobs. You know is and these are the so called green jobs. And it's ridiculous. It's just absurd how much money they've spent and it gets. I Schilling never shall put up his own money and you know he probably should have somebody like Mitt Romney and there of the code of you know. Told them not to user's own money and and maybe I helped him out but. I don't know I mean this the the they beat the the this -- for the guy is just sold over the -- I can't believe it. It's important thing I heard Monica yeah you're -- competitor -- -- stationed there boarding and said he took over mortgage. But some of its employees. I mean he gave them you know Cadillac guy helped plant and I think you. Know. I don't think it was the best business but you batted in pensions and -- if all the guys who want to create. Good paying jobs and playing with in the rules that this island -- -- -- -- -- thanks for the call press as a as a poster you know someone like John network she and alum John Edwards got into while. For closing on houses on the war -- say he was the one that after Katrina that -- nobody talks about that anymore of course because CC he's one of the beautiful people. 18774694322. On power are 18774694322. But that congressman's. So Cellini. The I used to be a mayor of -- province. Mean. If this guy who see who most left the city of Providence on the boring. Of bankruptcy. He's he's running way behind his is. Republican opponent which is which is good and that would be nice to elect a Republican congressman this is patches Kennedy seat. But the wind and won't do as the globe ever gone after -- leaning. For wrecking Libya finances of the city of Providence. All forget -- These day. And he's endemic. I am. 1877469432. To one of morrow from the -- idea. Mortgage text line Patrice says I definitely feel bad for showing I can't believe that he put all of his own money at risk. 86 so let this be a lesson that Tim Thomas boy is that a good point yet -- -- but don't -- at all on the line what nebulous and everybody don't put all on the line. Seven I want to words made everyone hates showing vote bush you'd think -- -- upon chill below what lava. I don't think -- bill does -- likes and all that much I think Schobel and those like him actually. You better hit the gym hard and put the -- back on for one more year for only he could do 1877469432. To see another problem he -- he made the deal with the the the prior governor bond Karachi airy and he's he was he was a real Republican like Chafee who was you know stopped being -- Republican became. Independent. And you know I mean I guess that's another thing is that. Showing should've seen that the political winds were blowing in a different direction. You know we've gone from having a business of former businessman governor to having a moon -- governor. In the and of course the moon and again the moon bats and left the Republican Party because he hated George Bush on March. So I mean this is the kind of guy he is this -- gonna help you while now of course she's not gonna help -- 18 sent a memo that I'm not I'm not saying that you know chilling handled -- well one day it made a lot of mistakes and it's it's a shame that the Rhode Island lost all their money I'm just saying that. Boy is this you again it's another example the media double standard here. The way he's being torn apart in the I'm not so much on the not so much -- Sports Radio. Talk radio but by by the newspapers. 18774694322. Paul you're next with how -- cargo ahead Paul. How we have called machete some -- -- -- -- bats over here had this federal open and that pretty assists. But it's solidarity for a little bit. Warren I'm sure they were all I'm sure they were all on their computers or 130 trying to get their question and to her with church. With the globe moon bats. And so was sold some of the people saying hey if we get to casino here. Here we receive calls -- calls. We're told the world literally but. I would skip down to this commercial first of rescue withstand total objective right now. Not to want to but it my buddies to say that this beautiful beaches and when I am when I can it was -- -- problems -- these. -- -- and a half Italian half Jewish all homosexuals. At all. So ultimately everything else we need to -- out to the but his -- this -- the policy get down. And you don't just you know I'm willing to put too many carries -- points yeah. I'm Atlanta. C'mon c'mon it will all all I know is the guy you know but Buddy Cianci you know -- Angola a membership to brown club and went to the camp. This guy lied about all the city finances and left them on the verge of bankruptcy and he's running for reelection. I mean again it's the doubles isn't it it's the double standard once more. He gets you want to put that it was shipments for actually if you go back edge -- to even go back to -- -- -- unfortunate things with a lot of these athletes right. Yeah try to get it to something whether it's restaurants -- you know real estate. We all seen that not all but a good number of them difficult to predict guys who played on Vince -- for the Packers seem to have done well. These fictional. -- spoke to someone will the ritual on the one of the Republican types that would necessitate. Digital like you you know your endorsement baseball glove cleats to video games stuff I hate the video game stock grant that. For more amnesty and the people that play these games since his actual. Team isn't a bad game but -- you know I actually just say. People Lauren has to wallowing in his misery. Because of his outspoken -- And I I think Manny Pacquiao fight was fixed -- Filipino Catholic he spoke -- expects same sex marriage -- -- slot Jimenez says she's just bought -- so we know all that the media is and how vicious these liberals -- they come across with there live and let -- types. Initially your opinion disagree with this. Multi view is that actually hadn't realized that extreme -- -- fascist. There was does an extremely person. And I know they they should they they've been married he when he wouldn't I mean -- -- gone out of business -- -- he he would have been treated did the same way while I mean there is this of this unabashed glee in his in his downfall and nine in its in certain quarters. 18774694322. Thanks to a call Paul Mike your next with -- cargo have Mike. Yeah probably isn't a prime example. Was why the government should never again in the practice industry. Ever. You know I mean this. Who is winning and opened the people ballot losing her Schilling goes in fifteen million dollars. I mean. The parent should -- on. To peacefully but is that Mitt Romney you know being capital those people lost something in his business model that. What and he wasn't giving them money for most people actually went to stay. Yeah you know no reason why it's it's like what these green jobs are we won't why -- they -- of the giving all this money to these green industries because number one they they really truly bit in there -- -- their religion global warming is there religion and number two which because it's their campaign contributors. I and that the state looked at these people and -- to actually insist it's always a baseball star. No control and we'll take them out to dinner and then all of -- sudden the financing is there. And you know. It's it's failed because it was built a business plan. And you know I feel bad particularly for. Dollars and fifty million dollars -- -- you know he should've known better adult put -- money -- -- other people's money. Oh -- opium what's the first rule right. It. Yeah thanks for the call Mike 218774694322187746943. 22 Brian you're next with how we cargo -- Brian. And how he thought I would I've -- a small business but hey -- -- -- two years I was this sole employee. Right. -- like Arabs be yards. That they would that is the ten years by the itself. Curt Schilling and almost 400 employees. With the -- it's just something he has. -- his business. And you -- like the Cadillac health plan in the great salary. But he did -- -- some money but that anyone could do. You know and be let it great in India and the economy. I think though you I don't know much about video games Ryan but don't -- and B it's a pretty complicated industry isn't it I mean it's it's not like your he you know your your making. Little -- trinkets today and the trinkets catch on and all of a sudden you'll factory right. Yeah I'd I -- I don't know much about about the videogame industry myself like the last element that -- is gonna have failed business plan from the dot. And oh I think it it's -- simple wouldn't somebody else the big problem as some of these athletes they're really good at one thing in life and it's big because there's so -- -- -- That no matter what they do that going to be really good at it and it creates a problem because it's not the case so penal settlement terms. Thanks for thanks for call Brian one mates at their story the just this this guy there's beach or in the New York Daily News this week -- disguise he had a lot of Mickey Mantle memorabilia. And that accompany the Mickey Mantle at a restaurant in New York America and in the capture those crappy food now let but he had the the blue light the pinstripes. Number seven. Etc. so a -- got a lot of people going there for a for a while and they realist food sucks and people stop going that's the that's the way these most of these which restaurants ago. And so this guy this -- brought in all of his Mick Mickey Mantle -- after the company that was providing the memorabilia wasn't getting paid. They were they took all the stuff out so this guy -- a former employee of the Yankees and he's written some books as we have a lot of memorably he brings at all again. To want them to the right to Mickey mantle's restaurant. And then like two weeks after he comes in the path blocked replaced squad gone into bankruptcy. And ghost -- judge the bankruptcy judges says can I get -- try to get my stuff baca. And that the judge does know whatever is in that whatever's in that restaurant is is is the proper is now the -- would be considered property of the restaurant in their auctioning off all this guy's stuff. He gets he got screwed today he gets -- -- was fifty million like Curt Schilling but he's he's not a lot of though. 1877. That's that's the way it goes with a lot of these were there right with -- I was figure that was big cap be complaining about it is you know is you know he doesn't like playing here anymore and -- and and everything. Leo what about his restaurant -- nine -- -- that's the one Mike you're next with how we cargo ahead Mike. I salt on the -- but I want to do interest is golf bar lottery ticket line say. As a whole global era -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- The lot a lot on his -- OK you anyone else in order got a better shape you know put out. Go back to the globe. So what the you know Epstein okay Ramirez didn't go -- like a slight. Right. You bring -- to do it. I think I think even Epstein even lied once about it he said it was a family matter yeah -- right. You know. But it didn't mention about the app but it -- conservatives. -- story so. I know what he opposed the -- out and meeting the hospital stood. The -- Dottie yeah -- again he got a lot of money and I'm -- the -- -- the money -- all this stuff and and JP JP said it was a bad -- there when he was running but you -- -- he wants -- you know once the commitments -- he would have tried the he would try to little harder to keep it keeping going rather than just a -- all the bad news -- -- -- so what to make himself look like a profit last. In the in the election of 2010. 18774694322. On how we car. Happenings is gone that's always. Say it ain't solve. I never got a chance to -- there. One of those on -- locations in -- put in restaurant to restaurant every year or two on some of them ever seem to make it. -- quickly very quickly. Ali our question Curt Schilling try to create a profit. That's such a dirty word yes he did -- yes I mean and they were great and it's a you know. Yeah out what he media got a long but he's not going to repair or via credit I mean he got the -- that go lot of money from the state of Rhode Island but you know again. It's it's. It's small potatoes compared to Solyndra. About the same as ever grand am now car.
