CNBC - me

I know I'm full of myself these days, but I will be on CNBC tomorrow at around 11:30 am- 12 n talking about the Stanford case.

Wish me luck!

(Was on CNN en español and CNNi today!)

Re: CNBC - me

Very cool. I'll set the DVR.

I'll echo the request to mention the Reds. You could compare what Stanford did to his investors is similar to what the recent Reds leadership is doing to Reds fans. That made it easier for you to spot the scheme.

Re: CNBC - me

Make the interviewer mention it in the intro:

"And now we are going to talk about legal expert and longtime Cincinnati Reds fan oneupper about the Stanford case"...

Re: CNBC - me

Don't count on the REDs reference, but I'm already writing an article that equates Allen Stanford to Barry Bonds...to see if I can settle THAT argument once and for all..LOL.

Re: CNBC - me

Good luck. I'm off work tomorrow, so I'll check it out. Please continue to make RedsZone proud. Oh, and feel free to give me a shoutout--you can pull it off by claiming that 'camisadelgolf' is Spanish for 'deceit'. Actually, there might be some truth to that . . .

Yes!

Go down to the Johnny Bench link...the anchor is Joe Kernan!

He's pretty cool on air...if you get a shot before the interview mention the Reds to him and you're in like flint.
