" Most sports total with the Eddie Andelman is on line and on demand. --"

" Now one of the candidates for governor are in the and it's strange we have such as Steve Sweeney I can remember him doing -- the threat see my house and Christie welcome once again WTKK."

" Good evening did I they've. Hawaii Christie for his question right out of the blocks what is the price of all right I can do whatever in 1999. And 310."

" All right and once -- let's go -- best sales here and I well I mean the -- is running for governor of Commonwealth of Massachusetts. And I do believe that Deval Patrick stays -- all. And so I think they're pretty good shot. The and an interest in -- about the sports gambling and casinos -- I think for once they know. Foxwoods is in real trouble Lincoln's in receivership twin rivers. And foxwoods and -- they spent too much money. And that you know these lenders can't foreclose on any teams and they're -- and so am I am so this might be the time to strike."

" Well it it may be for those who want that casinos and all by the I'm looking for something that it could happen a lot quicker. And we wouldn't have to appoint a new authority -- new commission. Doing sports betting through the mass state lottery like the number of other states doing right now and then like god Delaware just started September 1 with their. That there are allowed sports betting through well professional. Football. Through their lottery system down there -- and it's it people in Massachusetts we have a system -- the out equipment. Solid that controls certainly. And we wouldn't have to appoint a whole new authority given to all this kind of bidding at all but just do it real quick. I do that in do look to -- slots of the racetracks I think we can raise a ton of money for the commonwealth and and really just put out put out of business they have you know the underground sports. Bit betting industry like we did the the underground a numbers game back in 1973 would be mass state lottery came about and and really put these people lot of prisoners."

" But Kristy you know I opening day for the Red Sox. Every politician is there the only one I know that's a season ticket holder has been for many years Tom Menino. But the rest of the market the best seats as you know. 90% of people that are working there through the speaker Aaron and through political connections at twelve jobs I. And ends so. Sports is very powerful. Then never going to let this happen Red Sox Bruins Celtics patriots. Must it was a way if you look at the --"

" Well. Look at I just think that the 1992. But sports protection act that that the federal government did is is gonna be found to be unconstitutional. Certainly. And right now we to state that taking it on New Jersey and Maryland. And we have got a massive cheated out of Washington 400000. Dollar. -- down on the you know fully staffed with people they should be lobbying to get Massachusetts in on that lawsuit against. You know so that so that we can get in on this at ground zero -- you know that. -- From Massachusetts. It that we can direct that money straight -- the cities and towns and bailed them out certainly. But I know you know some of these they're -- fight that -- whether it at the NHL NFL. The only one that really is standing back and allowing it to to happen rarely inside NASCAR. But everybody else's fight and it's certainly but it's something that you know they bought that much probably all of themselves and and well I'm I'm just that let's just go after the underground. Illegal. Sports betting business. Within a week to it we can reduce -- law enforcement costs refer to -- trying to go after these folks. And do what we've really have to do to to get in this business get -- get this revenue into the commonwealth and and you know join with New Jersey and Maryland get it done."

" Well you know -- when you look at the stay on in. It's I think I believe. And -- if I'm wrong I believe we're the only state that has less population. Now the only had 1946. I don't leads and a mistake to them and and that -- that -- that's like unbelievable."

" Well -- and I believe we had sixteen congressman. We're going to be down to nine after this next round of of cuts fairly and my sense is that that's -- kept wanna the only congressman running if if he -- beat that beat has gone. But about what we've really have to do as. I've right now -- the commonwealth is gonna get mired in a in a bidding process with that all these. Casinos in the gaming interest at all and -- if you read The Wall Street Journal yes they have my name -- recommends. Put a story in their relative to all of the publicly offered stocks big gaming stocks they're all in the toilets -- regatta they're valuation of their earnings. And you know don't want to bet on the hit that industry by investing in that industry and the right. Fox would twin rivers the other one data -- they're all in serious trouble. Well why would we wanna go full it with an industry that is really having its problems laying off people left and right defaulting on their on their. That their -- and all like just don't we do something that we can take in the mass state lottery. No news on the authority known group commission to get it done and it's simple. And move forward with some real revenues for the commonwealth."

" Well I think the question is. Can you right now because I would think you'd be stopped. -- Jersey Maryland. Act."

" What what you would be stopped -- But that thing is gonna go to trial very very soon and that the the -- federal court down in them in Delaware allowed them. To go for. Allowed them to go for sports spreading through two decades from the football games right now. They'll be more of that coming about but unless we -- and with that New Jersey and Maryland and take this on in the federal court. You know we're going to be just again late at the end -- going to be going for we'll going to be going into the hearts and then the you know the the buggy whip business. With that would casinos and -- who -- exit -- problems than Eddie what I think the second largest business and Massachusetts's. Is the yep. Hospitality business -- you start opening up casinos in the commonwealth it whether it's 34 whatever it is. Restaurants are gonna get devastated he would just like they do -- roundup foxwoods in India the casino data Connecticut has not a decent restaurant. Within 1015 miles of these places so that's what we're what would try to get Deval Patrick did -- detention. As configure -- Washington lobbying artists in on this and ask them to join the state the black -- with that New Jersey and Maryland to get in on the ground floor."

" Well listen I mean I like you a lot but I on this one here I -- you admire all odds we want yeah and I'll tell you why because outlook and the Washington has a baseball team despite the fact that that everybody -- would never make any money right. And that's because. Washington wanted baseball team right you see what's happening legislature now. They wanna fill Kennedy's seat with someone who'll vote for the health insurance here people have lost confidence. You know in our government and and -- just drew up one point which to me is that tells at all. President of the United States is saying. That the bill health bill is gonna be paid for by getting rid of the fraud. That takes place in Medicaid. While my answer is he's been for seven months why is he doing that yesterday. Well what's he waiting for. I mean so so let. The whole thing is absurd. You know and I know what really to what's gonna happen is that once you reach 4558. -- hip replacement. You know when you get any of these things has -- automatic -- And and so and and people. -- senses. They don't trust their politicians anymore they'll trust and it'll trust a million times they don't trust the globe. They don't trust NBC or ABC. And isn't it terrible thing when you don't have trust in facing your own people we need a complete. Although Paul -- system we need know people in the new ideas but most of all. We have to get some balance in this state I mean I've already told you how I feel he's similar work -- this -- all these barrels and these -- And who paints the lines and it's it's all crooked and all of our corporate NN NN and let's actually do things in Massachusetts are aware that that's why we need new people although I don't agree with what you are saying right now. I would vote for you in a minute. Because you have you know business idea if your business that now. America is a big business now it'll it was not and Bank of America just in the paper they give 275. Million a year to charity. Well what -- so he. I think we need to how does that relate to the casino news of the number and I'm just not being in love with him -- me casino. Right now foxwoods is in certain problems and went. -- big incentives had no problem. The casinos in the last thirty days almost every single stock has tripled. And I follow the industry very closely."

" What would what would you buy it starts. I bought eight tonne of wind stopped yes went. Almost a year ago."

" Up well. Okay almost a year -- so you -- you -- its appreciated for you but on the going forward I mean it is everybody you ask look wouldn't touch any of those stocks you know maybe it's tax. So it takes to process."

" No because because what happened was of -- going to Macau and Singapore. What happened to foxwoods. Is they put into that MGM thing and put up all the money for MGM and give that put up a penny. And GM went broke because they -- that century city for eight billion dollars and now they have to take Dubai and as a 50% patent. It's coming I here which is sing and and that but this is the gambling capital the world."

" This -- boy and matched it lottery. Perhaps than any other state in the union."

" as like that great joke then businesses and so dad. The book you sent along a sixteen policemen. Are. But you know."

" But but Eddie and Christie didn't we have the money on the table when we wanted to casino's two years ago. I mean what are they gonna put up money that we would now have in order to blow casinos -- air mass is --"

" It's very complicated it's not that simple right now. Sheldon Nelson for example you know couldn't get the financing to build a casino. Joe O'Donnell. Could get the financing itself victims. You know it depends on the individual but."

" When this came out in front of the legislature. That we can't why me and the city but if it had passed we would have that money now by. --"

" We might we may have some of that the permitting fees for them to move forward -- I think is what speech saying that the you wouldn't of had the finished product. It is in the statement that would there was nothing but two to fifty to 400 million dollars that. Governor Patrick what say it was. And in the state could take in the upfront. Just to therapy just a bit you know that's the price to play."

" Chris if you're elected governor yeah you're gonna move this idea forward."

" Oh absolutely sports -- absolutely. And let and let it would happen with casinos but I think we could do sports betting open might want this one this case that duplicated down and new Jersey's."

" I just made this point Chris is an experienced business person okay. If he was the governor tomorrow. And they let him this state would operate 25%. Less that budget could be reduced 25%. Because she's pisses me each stop all the ball games. And and and and he would understand with a ball games out where all -- feather of good ideas and and who's scratching whose -- and what would be better off being privatized."

" We're gonna make them up an account refused guys. It -- really turn this thing around."

" You've got to get some people win the outlook Deval Patrick is empty so he's accomplished nothing he's done nothing. And let's face President Obama doesn't understand business. Writer and he's a nice person and he means well. But he is he is an academic. Who doesn't understand -- more money you spend. It didn't understand as an -- different in my original lawyer -- Obama worship. This -- brilliant guy and so I can't stand. How he thinks of as central -- to suspect any sense mr. Warner. Let's say just one example. That. You all million dollars to some. And you'll late in your payments. You go to the guy you say illicit -- happier right now. But we do we know this no moral -- all -- it will say yeah but static and 6% who wants seven and a half percent. That it's that basic risk reward that they don't understand and so when you oh trillion dollars. You've got to pay the trillion debt plus you gotta pay interest. And that's what that's what they're missing right now so that's they can make fun of all the conservatives they want. But you can't spend what you can't paid act what happens when you can't pay -- dictating terms as to what they'll accept. And that's literally I right now in this country so anyone that says that this health. Bill is not gonna cost any money. -- Tim's -- are active Big Dig costing two billion."

" I act in any poll you -- today. That that's been done recently people suggest recording at the thought of this this healthcare bill. Plus they just not believe in him when he says you know it's gonna. You'll get better health care at less cost it's just not gonna happen and and they're gonna be be treating anywhere from thirty to forty more a million people a year -- just not gonna happen Eddie. So people at least the waking up there's some real good guys -- a Dick Morris is running my campaign. Has been out on the forefront on this he predicted this way back when. Even before the the president that this thing. And just told the truth about -- but it is -- the sports are betting goes I'm just looking to take out the illegal betting system that that would. If that happens each and every day -- you'd you'd tell that wonderful story about governor Perry governor deep packet not believing. That's it was any betting on the football games -- Papers stated remember that -- great stories."

" How he would like to call -- by the time -- got delicacy can help well one of the Hubble in the games. Gone and made that one team is obviously one but everybody's they'll they'll realize everybody yeah. Hey maybe this Brenda -- over."

" This got a couple quick questions for it before it to go to this first of all those ball 48 -- here with you where. That was the things industry that you may be entering the senatorial race that Ted Kennedy seat and what -- make up your mind to. Stay in the governor's race and also it is a mayoral primary on Tuesday and just when what your thoughts on there."

" What -- on the that the -- thing out we were contacted by -- people in Washington. Early in the day. Did we made that decision like within an ala rarely it it was just that there was no. No wavering known nothing I told the globe reporter we're we're just about -- recent when he can have a decision hasn't within 24 I was well we're we're squared away. But it did the decision really what I love my state I don't wanna go anywhere I let my family I wanna be homes. -- sleeping in the same bed with my wife every night and being around my kids. 22 split up like that -- it opted not one of these professional pol that. Jumps from job to job to job by just wanna be governor my home state and and I believe in states' rights and I wanna turn this state around the other issue. What -- this this whole email thing with Mayor Menino is really starting to stink and I just let -- competition. And I'd just like this via a whole new leadership for the city of Boston."

" Right you know you welcome here anytime public not what we do need to change we need -- eight -- I always enjoyed working on your campaign and and being your friend and it was a wonderful experience for me."

" Well below will have to do it again real soon."

" Yeah I you know one of the things the best -- has no matter what you say about it they they do want a balanced government I mean look at how many Republicans we have elected governor."

" Well lately it's. We until we get elected in the -- Iraq has all the time but unless you elect them the -- get some work courses in the Senate and and in the house. It just going to be ugly for awhile so what we're really up to try to recruit as many Republicans we can help more long. And we did that good kind of people. Calling for that wanna run that can't -- what's happening to this state and I really think you're gonna be a change in the commonwealth is that will be better. For everybody but would. Look at -- be frightened boy and well we won't let you down."

" Yeah we've got to get Dick Morris on the show because -- his book was one of the best parks. I've read the last four years packages regret."

" I I have it -- that the -- I get an autograph copy by."

" Well I appreciate what operative mentor Wright I tell you want to thank you very much this got the -- thank you."

" Thanks for downloading and listening to this sport -- with Eddie Andelman come back office. Boston's -- evolution -- these 69 WTKK. Is on line and fun to bed."
