Who Dey Revolution Manifesto

  • Preamble

    IN THIS TIME of perpetual Cincinnati Bengals incompetence and futility, with zero playoff wins in the nineteen seasons since the WhoDeyRevolution Godfather, Paul Brown, passed away in 1991 and handed the team to his fortunate son, the Despot, Mike Brown;

    Introduction

    WE, the members of the Who Dey Revolution, in our fervent dedication to the Cincinnati Bengals and fanatical desire to transform our hometown team into perpetual Super Bowl contenders, call for a popular revolution of fans to demand comprehensive reform to the managerial decisions and approach of Cincinnati Bengals ownership, management, staff and players, and hereby call for the adoption of the following Who Dey Revolution Manifesto:

    Manifesto Demands

    THAT the Mike Brown, Katie Blackburn, Marvin Lewis, along with every other member of the Bengals management, staff and personnel, state publicly to all Bengals fans, “I will do everything in my power to help the Cincinnati Bengals win a Super Bowl;”

    THAT Mike Brown will hire a general manager, drastically expand the scouting department and relinquish all control of player personnel;

    THAT all training, rehabilitation and medical facilities are considered best-in-class compared to other NFL teams;

    THAT the management fill the team only with players who fit the system, both mentally and physically, and are not reluctant to makes changes to player personnel when needed, regardless of cost or loyalty concerns;

    THAT offensive and defensive line depth is considered the top priority for all player personnel decisions;

    THAT all decisions made by ownership, management, staff and players, both on and off the field, are judged only by this criterion: “Does this help the Cincinnati Bengals win a Super Bowl?”

Who Dey Rev's Best Sources/Supporters Vaporized By Clear Channel

Well today is not a good day for the sports media landscape in Cincy and more importantly for Who Dey Rev. The Enquirer is reporting that Clear Channel has let the other shoe drop by letting C Trent, Doc and Cutler go. As if coverage of Cincy sports team wasn't thread bare enough. Somewhere Mike Brown and Baghdad Hob are laughing maniacally at this good turn of fortune for them.

This is bullshit! P Doc was awesome, and Alan Cutler is the voice of the Bengals. Clear Channel is a freaking monopoly run by a bunch of morons. They've obviously over stretched themselves by buying up every radio station in the country and are now trying to save money by combining talent and programming from different stations. No more Bengal's Radio Network on the weekends? If I wanted to listen to Fox Sports radio and non-stop talk about teams in New York, Boston, and LA I would listen to 1360 ESPN radio. This is a sad, sad, day for any fan of 700 WLW.

they have lost my support with this move....I even sent them a "comment" stating the fact lol....I do strangely belive that MB was somehow behind this....but that is usually my response to anything I fail to understand...

Posted by: Delta5243 | April 28, 2009 at 04:02 PM

I used to think very highly of Daugherty until I heard his incredibly, sadistic rant several nights ago on WLW about how he tried to kill the moles in his yard-something about chlorine,eyes bulging etc -pretty scary stuff. Hopefully, that's why he was canned. As a sports writer, the best, as a human, a piece of shit. Cutler, I couldn't stand. No comment on C. Trent-seemed like a nice guy.

Posted by: PAl | April 28, 2009 at 04:16 PM

Wow. This is unsurprising, but ridiculously awful. C Trent and Paul did a great job getting the word out. I wasn't as fond of Cutler but I at least liked that he acknowledged discontent in more than a passing way. I hope that you guys find other receptive ears out there to keep the progress going!

Posted by: BMN | April 28, 2009 at 05:04 PM

This really sucks.

Just business being business, though.

CTR will land on his feet somewhere, guy has great blogging skills.
Mo was a nice guy who will be good filler
Doc was alright, he's been getting nuttier and nuttier recently.
Cutler...I can finally die happy now that that bonehead is gone.

It's so disapointing that we are losing shows. If they were replaced, I'd be better. But losing local shows sucks.

C Trent is a real loss. Cutman actually grew on me, I really liked how Jeff Piccora used to get so pissed that people would say "It's a great day to be a Bengals fan." I guess Broo will take over the post game duties?

Posted by: Scott Ricketts | April 28, 2009 at 05:47 PM

Well, in the face of such setbacks, once the smoke clears we'll just have to regroup and reorganize to find the next local media source to act as our agents on the inside. Plus, I'm sure Doc and C Trent are gonna land on their feet somewhere.

The Revolution marches on.

in other news...THANK GOD KYLE LARSON IS OUT OF OUR LIVES.

they did the same thing in Detroit, blew out local for national. RIP WDFN as we knew it

Posted by: cj | April 28, 2009 at 10:50 PM

No big deal. Daugherty was a know-it-all prick! There's a reason that he had a voice for Newsprint....

Cutler? Big friggin' whoop! That idiot actually stated (paraphrasing) the other day something on the order that the Bengals were good to go and this is a fine sports town -- something like that. I know guys feel like they have to toe the company line but for once -- LET PEOPLE know how you REALLY FEEL! If you can't do that, don't make 'positive' statements either.

What bothers me is why that little turd, Tracey, wasn't let go! He made the mistake of going 180 degrees opposite of being too meek as a new radio personality -- he became of punk. Some people may go for that but in the end, you are still a punk.

Oh one could only hope... ... while they are at it can they fire Parks and Cunningham?

Are you talking about that ego-maniacal jerk Tracey Jones? I can't stand even hearing him for that brief second when I'm channel surfing.

Posted by: PAl | April 29, 2009 at 02:43 PM

It's the only Tracey I know of that's on radio.

I think it was on the Enquirer's website that a person wrote that he heard one person talking about some stuff and claiming to be a doctor or some such thing, then the guy swears that he heard the same person talking about another subject and claiming to be an expert in that field etc. I would dearly love to find out if that is true because it might net that 'turd' being fired.

Posted by: WCH | April 29, 2009 at 06:06 PM

I do think it's the Bengals fault, as well as the Reds, and UC basketball for sucking so bad. People are getting adverse to sports from the abuse!!
