Bengals demand new $10 million scoreboard

Roxanne Qualls and Mike Brown, very pleased with themselves

Dear fellow tax hikers, the Cincinnati Bengals are demanding a new $10 million scoreboard from the generous taxpayers of Hamilton County.  And they're going to get it, courtesy of the stadium deal that has brought so many benefits to this area.

This is the kind of economic development that Roxanne Qualls promised when she was the leading spokesman for the Bob Bedinghaus Stadium Tax.  This $10 million scoreboard is going to create a ton of jobs. 

We thank Roxanne Qualls The Stadium Queen from the bottom of our hearts for everything she did to pass the Bedinghaus Stadium Tax.  It was a great investment, just like the streetcar is a great investment.  This $10 million scoreboard investment will benefit our region for many years to come.

I would be happy to pay higher taxes to pay for this "investment". Oh wait, it's been years since I lived in Cincinnati so I don't pay taxes here. And even if I did live with my good friend Travis, I still wouldn't be paying taxes because his home is tax abated.

Roxanne Bedinghaus said...

What a coincidence! The streetcar will be a revenue sucker from local government for years to come just like the stadium boondoggle. F.U. Mike Brown! Demanding new toys while low level County employees suffer. And F.U. Qualls for doing the same thing!

Streetcar hypocrites said...

Isn't it funny how the streetcar psychopaths like Pig Hochscheid bitched relentlessly that those who lived outside the City limits should keep their mouths shut about the streetcar, and yet one of their most loudmouthed members lived in the State of Illinois the whole time.

Bluegrass Bobby Maly and KY Governor Candace Klein said...

Yeah, that is pretty hypocritical. The nerve! Good thing our media buddies that put us in all of those metromix party photos won't tell anyone about it.

Just think, if we had a candidate for mayor, we couldn't say a word about this because Bob Bedinghaus was a Republican and just as big a supporter of this stadium tax too.

If anyone deserves a $10 million stadium, it's my beloved Bengals. Paul Brown Stadium is such an awesome place to see and to be seen, especially when you're as graceful, charming and glamorous as I am. Paul Brown Stadium might be my favorite place to go that isn't a shopping destination. But I guess it will be a big shopping day for Mike Brown when he gets his scoreboard!!!!

With any luck this scoreboard will block my view of those fat, smelly, disgusting, inbred west siders.

Toen Roxanne Qualls ondersteund het stadion fiscale wist ze dat we zouden moeten blijven maken van investeringen in de stadions. Deze $ 10.000.000 scorebord is een grote investering!

Greed Township Republicans said...

It's a shame that we have only two Democrats and no Republicans running for mayor of Cincinnati. Obviously, that's the fault of our garbage-loving neighbors in Colerain Township.

Urbanistas are so clever said...

OMG that post from "Cranley's" scheduler was SO FUNNY! LOL!!!!

Criticizing John Cranley for accepting help from Republicans, Democrats, and Independents in a non-partisan election, yeah that's a good plan. This strategy has been working really well so far. Keep up the good work, Qualls lackeys.

Cranley's Supporters Are Clueless said...

The main point of the scheduler's post is that Cranley is spending all his time and effort outside the city.

Qualls supporters are losers said...

Yes, we understood the main point of the post. What we fail to understand is how you could be so dumb as to ridicule the strategy of a candidate who is beating your brains in. Keep it up Qualls losers! Stick with the same strategy of arrogance that is sinking your campaign. We look forward to a big victory in November!

Do Roxanne Qualls, Eve Bolton, and Martha Good all go to the same barber?
