Speaker 1 (00:01):
You have to love the last. Yes, it is October
the eighth, twenty twenty five. It is hump Day, which
is Wednesday. If you didn't know. Welcome back to Eve.
Sports Radio phone numbers five zero two seventy nine hundred.
That's five zero two, five to seven one seventy nine hundred,
Sports Talk seven ninety. We've got, of course, Shannon, the
(00:23):
dude behind the glass. We've got my co host, which
I'm gonna hold. Just hold him, Shannon, play the tape
before I bring my co host on to start the show.
Play the little clip, Shannon, so everyone can understand what
transpired last night.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
Just right this it's a drive down blind with experience
this moment, it's timeousand.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Thanky Shannon. That's all. Judge has arrived. Coach Beard as
happy as he could be. I'm just so glad he
moved out of New York City living like a Gerbil
in a cage, that's all running around in a little box.
At least he's moved to Phoenix, has a little root.
But anyway, welcome back, Scott. What do you think the
one and only Scott bol Wait, the golfer on my
(01:16):
basketball staff and baseball player on my basketball staff. What
did you think, Judge? That was his hour, Scott, that
was his hour.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
It was about time. I mean, he has had a
bad series, but when you need your best player to
step up, he had. He had a great game. He
was three for four, four RBI's big home run change
the momentum of everything, and just again he stepped up
(01:49):
to be the player that everybody expects. You know, when
you talk about an MVP player, MVP candidate for your
team and teams have a good year, that's all your
team needs is just one guy and especially your guy
to step up and everybody else can fall in line. So,
(02:12):
you know, not a Yankees fan, Red Sox fan, but
from a sports perspective, it's good to see when those
players have all the pressure on them and they deliver.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
True about five hundred, Scott, he's hitting the ball of
these series. The last two series. He's put the bat
on the ball. He just hasn't taken it out of
the yard. But he's really played well.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
That's what you expect him to be, the home run guy,
you know, And and again five hundred in the series
is phenomenal. So I'm not taking that away from saying
that he's struggling, but when you need them, especially like
those first two games in Toronto were I mean, we're
(03:00):
really bad for the Yankees, So.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
I want Big take what he said till Big Poppy take.
You said Big Poppy was killing. The only way they
could win it. They have to bring back pay Ruth.
That's what you said. It's got Big Poppy. Big Poppy didn't.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Say it back. Well, they're still down two to one,
so they still have an uphill battle the faith. You know,
they've got another game today with the Blue Jays. Every
and got all four games in the major leagues going
on today. They've got the Mariners can close out against
(03:37):
Detroit Tigers in Detroit. You got the Brewers that are
up to oh against the Cubs. Then they can close
out in Chicago. Yankees again have a their home which
is again which is good for the Yankees their home,
so got a little home field advantage. But they have
to win or they're done. And then my mom's Phillies
(03:58):
are out in LA and they're in trouble too, and
the Dodgers can close them out, so it'll be there. Interesting.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Won O Tani opens up the series with a home
run Bam right on my rints. Bam, he just bam
right on the Rits. Green throws it. Oh, Tany takes
it out. That series was done. That's why it's so
hard for Judge. Tany's on the West Coast playing great.
Judge is playing good. I mean back in five hundred,
(04:30):
Scott's incredible, but he just no home runs until last night.
Everyone fears the Yankees. If the bats get hot like
last night, Scott, they beat anyone. That's the bottom line.
So we'll have to just wait and see. We'll have
to wait and see it.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
In the World Series.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Yep. You know is a Yankees fan. He was so
upset yesterday for the game. He was with you in
big copy. There's no way we say Rodney little faith right,
even great big Yankee fan, huge Yankee fan. So anyway,
we just had to open it up. But then I
just wanted to run to.
Speaker 3 (05:08):
Know hey, and to the Yankees credit. They were down
six to one going into the bottom of the third.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Inning, sixty one game. It was over.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
It was I mean, it was pretty much over at
that point, but you know, they showed a little resilience
and came back and had a great rest.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Of the game. I got you well, so we'll know,
Scott before we get started. It's already seventy eleven. The
phone numbers five zero, two, five, nine hundred. We have
our scores. We have to get in largest week. Last
week was for one hundred, seventy five and fifty. This
week is fifty and one hundred. I just want you
(05:53):
all to know this is starting to get a little ridiculous.
Scott greg last week's winner. He's to be his address Instagram.
One of the social medias. I don't Scotch, you know,
I don't know, but one of the social medias. He
sent me his information this is the truth, and below
it he said, it's going to make out this weekend
(06:14):
envelope to me too. Scott. You know he's getting arrogant. Now,
very slow your road, he said, just make this week.
I'll look out to me like I'm paying his rent,
like I got to pay his mortgage. Scott, Scott just Eric, Okay,
thank you. He just straight told me just make the
(06:34):
next check out to me. So Scott, before I take
another step, we've got a caller. And I love my
lady callers. I do they marry this One man has
won seventy five dollars of my money, which I don't mind, Scott.
I like beating the men. I love beating the brakes
off the men. But we've got Mary on the line. Mary,
(06:57):
welcome to the sports radio. How are you.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
Good morning, Jerry. I'm doing well here you today.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
I'm good Mary. So let me just let let me
go find you. Mary. Right now, you're sitting at fourteen wins.
You're not out of this thing, Mary, but you need
to pick up the pace. But you're not out by
any stretch of the imagination. The leader is twenty one, okay,
So that's where you stand throughout Now, Scott. This is
(07:24):
a funny thing because you know, Scott, my guys, the men,
they really understand gambling more than I do. Mary. You
just got to stay with me, and they understand point
spreads over under. Scott, I had no idea. I really
had no idea. Now I have an idea now, but
I did not. I'm just not a gambler. So the
(07:45):
over under guys think they're good. They try to pick
the over under. So I started looking at my scores
and most people, Scott try to stay two or three
points of whatever Vegas says. The over under is all
of them are. Everybody got me. But when I went
and looked at the winners, like Mary one, Mary's score
was so abnormal the week she won, it wasn't even
(08:06):
close to the line. God's got not close. So it's
really interesting when you see people trying to pick them.
The people that have won have not been close to
the overunder. That's all I'm telling people. I went back.
I just wanted to check. M hmm. So the over
under is not indicated or dictated the winner of this contest.
(08:26):
So what am I telling you? People Just guess I'll
just be an Scott. That's the truth. That's the truth.
So anyway, Mary you're in, I'm getting ready to put
you down. Marry the game that counts. Very good game?
Is I? You at Oregon? Now both highly ranked? I
(08:47):
you did kill Illinois, I mean they destroyed Illinois and
Mary IU is ranked eighth. Organ is ranked second at Oregon.
What's your score?
Speaker 4 (08:59):
I have Oregon thirty five, I U seven.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Okay, let's see that. Mary. You'll winning? Yes? Now, I
think Oregon wins without a doubt. I do. Can Indiana
scoore more than seven? Maybe maybe you may be right.
We'll have to see. I've got Ohio State at Illinois undefeated,
number one ranked team Ohio State.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
I've picked Ohio State over Illinois in that one.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Okay, Alabama at Missouri again Mary, ranked opponents number ten, Alabama,
number nineteen Missouri.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
I have Alabama over Missouri.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Okay, you do know that they're on the road. You
still want Alabama? Alabama's Everson my husband.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
Make sure I know that.
Speaker 5 (09:53):
Yes, I do.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Okay, great, you know it. Don't evenly your husband. He's
so far behind. He better really get on his horse.
I love it. I love it. He's so far by
we're not even gonna call his score.
Speaker 4 (10:10):
Actually he's been left.
Speaker 1 (10:14):
Let's go to Oklahoma. Text now, Marry just made my day.
Oklahoma Texas at Texas.
Speaker 4 (10:22):
I have many over Oklahoma.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Oh gotcha, man?
Speaker 5 (10:27):
I like that.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
Call Mary. If you remember last week, Scott I did.
I liked Florida upset in Texas. I said, guys, there's
an upset game. This is what I said. Florida is
not as bad as they've played, and that was the upset.
So Oklahoma's good. Mary, But I'm going with you. I
think I'm going with Texas. So Mary, I've got you down.
(10:47):
It's only a four game week this week. Appreciate your call.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
All right, Jerry, thank you very much. You have good day.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Okay. Scott got Mary's husbands. He played a ballot with me.
Just everybody understand blending. And I go back all the
way to the seventies, right, Scotty, he's getting lapped. He
just better stay and Lennon he's tight. He's tight with
(11:18):
his money, and he travels all over. He really does,
goes watching his grandkids play. But he's getting a lap
Scott in the contest. That's all I know. So Scott,
let's get back to it. We've got to hit baseball
a little bit. What's when transpire tonight? All the games
are being played, so huge day from Major League Baseball,
and I don't know it, Scot. I can't watch a
(11:40):
baseball game regular season. I can't. I mean if I
go to one. When I was a kid with the
Cincinnati Reds. The only game I've ever gone to in
person baseball, I've seen the Indians play, excuse me, the Guardians.
Because I lived on Prospect Avenue in Cleveland, Scott, and
I was on I want to say, probably the twelfth floor,
(12:02):
and I could look into the infield, and I could
right into the infield. So yes, I saw crowds. I
never saw a batter hit the ball, but I could
see the crowd of the Indians game. When I would
go to Cleveland this time of the year, I would
have been up there a month ago. At the end
of the season, I would watch them play. It's the
only way from my apartment. So but I can watch
(12:24):
playoff games. I mean honestly, in my life, when I
watch the entire games, I enjoy them. The fans are
into it. It's just different to me. It is different
in baseball playoffs in regular season. Is it just that
I'm I have no idea what I'm talking about, or
do you feel the same.
Speaker 3 (12:39):
Way, No, it's it's the same. It's kind of almost
like the intensity picks up with the fans, just like
you know NBA games. A lot of people say they
can't watch the NBA during the regular season. The fan
level of their intent you can you can see from
(13:03):
all sports. You know the NHL, you have, you know, NFL.
Everybody's there, but now everyone's on the edge of their
seats for each play. I will say that each pitch,
Now that each pitch is huge in the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Each pitch, god, it's not it's each sitting there, you're
gonna hit home run. Each pitch is big. They just changed.
I can't watch the NBA because they're whining too much.
I love the NBA. I can watch the NFL every play, Scott,
I don't care who's playing. I like the NFL. It's
just always half but baseball, it's just intriguing the difference.
(13:39):
It's just itself.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
But and also they bring over the past couple of
years they have put in the pitch clock. They've really
sped up the pace of baseball, so it moves at
a much faster pace. You're looking at, you know, two
and a half under two and a half hour games
compared to in the past they were three and have
four hour games.
Speaker 5 (14:01):
And it doesn't.
Speaker 3 (14:02):
Really drug on whether you're watching on television or you're
there live and in person. So I do agree that
right there makes a world of difference for the average
baseball watcher.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
That is a huge different Scott. That is one rule
that the implications to the game is huge, and it's positive,
really positive. So anyway, Scott, we're at seven twenty guys,
you gotta get scores in. Of course, it's a fifty
dollars week if you do not get into Briar's patch
and Mary does not get in or her husband, they
(14:39):
say out of the Briar's patch. Greg got in last
week and he has one hundred andy dollars check going
out today for Me Sports Radio. I'm not making out
this week's envelope to you, Greg, I'm not doing it,
so Scott, that's all. I'm just letting him know. It's
not gonna happen. Not gonna happen. So Scott, let's get
to our first break. When we come back, we do
(15:02):
have to jump into Kentucky football. It's Wednesday. I haven't
touched it yet, and all the things that are going
along with that is E Sports Radio. We'll talk to
you in a minute. Seven twenty four. Welcome back to
East Sports Radio. It's some day. You're more than halfway there.
The weekend is right around the corner. All numbers five zero, two, five, seven,
(15:25):
seventy nine hundred. I've got Scott Bolwage on the other line.
Scott University of Kentucky and coach Stoops four and eight
twenty twenty four, seven and six twenty twenty three, seven
and five, twenty twenty two, this year's Scott again struggling.
(15:49):
The blobirds are out, Scott, the firing rumors are out.
They do believe that that should be a change. Owing
three this year in the SEC two and three overall
hasn't won an SEC game, and quite a few double
digit games. So Scott, I talked to a lot of people,
(16:13):
and with Kentucky, I tell them you have to take
the benefit of being in the SEC. I'm not talking
about just great teams, but the amount of money that
comes along with those great football programs that helps all
the other programs at your school. I want people to
understand that. So, yes, it's a tough task for you, okay,
(16:34):
football wise, but when they trade it. Never they would
never leave the SEC. They would never say let's go
to the AEC and dominate the league. No, they make
too much money with the SEC. So knowing that, I
can't just keep harping on they're in the toughest league
(16:55):
in college football. They are, But there's a benefit from
that which is financially which I count dollars and cents.
Got you know that? So anyway that puts it back
to coach tups argue with people I know really well,
and I like Mitch Barnhardt's gotten. A lot of people
are upsetting Mitch Barnheart over the two contracts football and
(17:18):
basketball coach cal my guy before ever got to Kentucky,
which they all my listeners know personal for the mind,
before ever touched you a case. I had a great
contract and a great buyout, and coach Troops has a
great contract nine plus million and a thirty eight thirty
nine million dollar buyout. And I've been in this business
(17:40):
my entire life as an athletic director or an organization
or a school. You don't want to give away both.
You caither paid great money upfront and your coach understands
my buyout is going to be less. Or you hold
down the base salary and the buyout is more, but
(18:01):
you don't give them both. Mitch Barnhart has given way both.
Now Coach Cali Perry Kentucky got off lucky. And I
want to say this to Cat fans. Coach Kyle gave
you some great years. Guys. I don't care what you say.
There was a five or six year stretch that he
won one. But you're in the final four, four out
(18:21):
of six years. I mean that's John Wooden only Duke
era when Sheizsky was rolling and John Wooden's UCLA. I
mean that was an era that was crazy. I always
tell people about my Louisville eighty eighty two eighty six run. Well, guys,
that era that coach Cayle gave Kentucky before you just
(18:42):
forget completely was one well of a run. So you
get out, you don't have to pay the buyof But
everybody knows coach Tups is going to leave with a
lot of money if they decided to let him go.
Your decision, what would you do if you were Mitch
Barnhart and the University of Kentucky and Scott throw in
as people, as the fans are starting to check out,
(19:02):
they may have no choice, got they may have no choice.
So now what's your opinion?
Speaker 3 (19:08):
Yeah, that's that's a tough part because you know, even
with Cali Perry, you know, everybody expects championships and that's
what you're you're paying your coaches for to win championships.
And you know, even though Cali Perry was producing NBA players,
(19:32):
he wasn't producing championships. And that's where there was a
little disdain with the fans because you have all this
talent coming in and they leave and they go to
NBA and they're you know, all stars, and but they
don't produce that Kentucky.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
So on the foot, they didn't win championships. They produced
the last three years Scott and I was one who
said it was time for coach to go because they
did not produce. They were losing for a second round.
But before then Scott had a heck of a run.
I've always said, you talk with young kids, but I'm
not gonna jump the foot. We're not gonna jump to basketball.
Let's stay with football. Let's go back to Let's go back.
Speaker 3 (20:10):
So now on the on the football side of it,
it's a it's the same same thing to where everybody
wants championships. And the difference between those two is now
Kentucky football has been struggling the past couple of years,
and at some point you have to you have to
(20:31):
understand and ask yourself like has he lost the team?
Has he lost the program? And you have to you
have to pretty much put it on him. Either you
go or your staff goes. Something's got to change. If
you look at as the Philadelphia look at the Philadelphia Eagles.
(20:51):
Look at the Philadelphia Philadelphia Eagles two years ago in
twenty twenty three, they went to the Super Bowl. In
twenty twenty four, That they make a playoffs, I don't think.
And if they did, they lost in the first round. Okay,
Caerrano got rid of everybody. He cleaned house.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
They're after him, I know, but they're after him.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
So he gets rid of everybody and next year they
win the Super Bowl. Yes, So so at some point
you got to make a decision as a coach, like
I have to change things.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Up and coordinators Scott Liam Cohen is one of the
best young coaches in the NFL. He was the outfensive
coordinator could talk. So I can't just give you that.
Just let the offensive coordinator go again if he don't
let them do their job.
Speaker 3 (21:45):
So if it's if it's not them, then it's sad coach,
and somebody got to go.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
I think that's got the year ahead, correct, uh yeah, correct, yeah,
oh man, And it's unfortunate. But it's unfortunate, Like you have.
Speaker 3 (22:08):
To look in a mirror and be honest with yourself,
like it it's not them. Everybody's changing around me, and
that we're still getting the same results, and it might
it might be me.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Well, I think, Scott, that's something. If something radically does
not turn around this season for coach Stoops, I'm i
predicting that they will make a change. And Scott, it's
just okay, great, Well, you know it's already seven thirty two,
(22:43):
so let's stay on task. I got my next caller.
I'm gonna get him in after the break. But let's
just before I go to break. Toledo twenty four to
sixteen win. I'm at the ole Miss game, Scott, thirty
twenty three. Ole Miss is now ranked within the country.
I do believe somewhere in the top ten. Thirty twenty
(23:05):
three competitive game defeat Eastern Michigan. Okay, South Carolina is
the game away from them, thirty five thirteen Okay. And
what happened at Georgia. Everyone in the country expected that
to happen. I mean, I think the spread. People tell me.
I think the spread was half a point one way
(23:25):
or the other.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
Yeah, twenty and a half.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
I don't know if Georgia twenty and a half exactly?
Come on? And what was the score thirty five to fourteen?
Come on? So I don't know, Scott. Next game will
be Texas, not this week, but next I don't know.
Let's go to break. When we come back, we'll bring
another caller on and see what they have is Eave
swats radio phone numbers five zero, two, five seven, seventy
nine hundred. Get your scores in, talk to you in
(23:50):
a minute. Welcome back to the sports radio. I want
to make some corrections. Indiana is now ranked seventh, Oregon
is ranked third, Alabama is ranked eighth in this week's AP.
Oklahoma is ranked sixth in this week's AP. I just
(24:12):
wanted to make a few corrections. Let's me find Missouri
so I give people accurate information. And Missouri is now
fourteen Scott. So that Alabama game? Who big road again,
big road game. So let's get to our next call,
and let's bring Ryan to the show. Ryan, what do
you have to say?
Speaker 5 (24:31):
Hey, Jerry, I want to I just want to comment
on some of your conversation. Uh. First, I'm gonna give
you an opinion, and then my second point, well, I've
come with from facts. My opinion is Kentucky has no
choice in the matter. They better, they better figure out
where they're going to get the money to let this
(24:53):
entire football staff go. The fan base is checked out.
It's it's not what it's going to cost, it's what's
what it's going to cost. If you don't get rid
of him, it's just gonna get worse. Okay, the bill's
gonna go up because they're gonna lose ticket sales, support
and everything else, donors.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
What have you.
Speaker 5 (25:12):
Also, I think it's not only time to get rid
of the football staff, it's time for a change in
the athletic department. It's time our ad has been there
twenty three years. He's the guy that put us in
this position of having this ludicrous buyout of Mark Stoops,
(25:32):
paying Mark Stoops over nine million of the year. He's
he just fortunate John Caler Perry took him off the
hook for another ludicrous ball. He's had numerous He's had
some good hires, but he's also had some horrible heres.
Let's not forget the Billy Gillespie. Let's not forget he
(25:52):
extended Kyra Elsey's contract five years with the losing record.
Some of the things that he hired Joker Phillips and
some of the other things that didn't go well. He's
also had the sexy game or the swim swim team
down there. So it's time for a change. It's time
for a facelift for Kentucky's and anybody that that gives
(26:17):
coaches that type of buyout if they're let go or fired.
He doesn't need to be in that position any longer.
It's time for him to go to That's just my opinion.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Okay, let me ask you now question before you go
to fight. One question on Mark Stoops other there have
been some hiccups. I agree the swimming issue. I agree
with you. I'm everyone understands how I kind of stand
field about those things. The hires. It's a very tough
(26:50):
business to be perfect in your hires, right, Coach Caliperry,
we didn't. Kentucky did not have to pay a penny.
It was so funny. They were at Anderson County right
at a banquet last week talking to a huge cat
fame and the woman sitting next to me, I'll never forget.
I was talking about eight off Ruppert Memorials. She said
(27:11):
when they went to that stadium downtown and got too
big for her, right, But she said the only thing
she liked is that Coach Stoops would come out and
speak to him. He was personable. He went out in
the community and people really like him. Excuse me that
stoops with me to Barnhard. People really like him, So
I just wanted to throw that in.
Speaker 5 (27:30):
Well, okay, Jerry, that's all fine, that's all fine.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
What about what about the football team? Well, there was
a year in the sect.
Speaker 5 (27:46):
Past, Jerry. You can't just bring out the high points
of his career without bringing out the negative too. Right now,
he's holding the football program at hostage to that buyout.
He's the guy that tried to leave two years ago.
Let's don't get twisted. He tried to leave two years
ago and Texas ain't even rejected him. Okay, Now we're
(28:06):
stuck with him because of what bar because of Barnheart's
mismanagement of the contracts. Okay, I mean it's time to
clean house. The people have had enough.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Listen.
Speaker 5 (28:19):
You can bring out all the good points you want,
but if there's no fanilies in the seats on Saturday,
the university is going to be The university is losing
millions every week. Okay, It's it's time to make that change.
And again John Caler Perry took him off the hook
or he would add this times too.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Now, now that would have been that would have been catastrophic.
That would.
Speaker 5 (28:42):
Why should we Why should Mark Stoops get more respect
than John cal Perry got? What did he accomplished? Okay,
now now I want to bring Now, I want to
bring facts to the conversation you had there. Want to
go about John Caller Perry. It's absolutely not true that
(29:06):
he does not He did not produce. He did produce
a championship, He produced the national runner up. He produced
four final fours, he produced seventy lead eights. So let's
not just act like all he'd done was turn out
pro players. That's absolutely not true. And he dominated a
rival up the road, absolutely dominated the University of Little
(29:28):
Rick Patila.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
He did.
Speaker 5 (29:35):
So, I mean to have the conversation, say, Cayle Perry,
he produced a lot of NBA players, but he didn't
do this and didn't do that.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
He had a bad three He had a bad.
Speaker 5 (29:47):
Three or four years at the end in the tournament
quich exits. That's what got him in trouble. Everybody knows that.
But to pretend his thirteen fourteen year career was in
very find me a pro in that period of time
they had more than seven eleve eates and four final
fours in the championships.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
There weren't no and you know, I right, those.
Speaker 5 (30:09):
Are those aren't that? It doesn't that's not those are facts.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
I tell people that all the time. But see he's
got I'm a cow fan. So when I came and
when I show, everyone was like, why are you like Kentucky? Well,
I'm just John and I've been friends forever, I mean
forever Coach Beer. John cali Perry followed Coach Beer to
the New Jersey Nets in ninety four. When we got fired,
he took the job and then we see each other
(30:34):
down the road. We just we have a relationship. So
that's almost thirty years. So that's why people you like
coach Why do you like Kentucky? Because Jerry, he had
a heck of a run. He had a great run.
Speaker 5 (30:46):
You talk, you talk about what stoops come out and spoke,
Well that's fine. John Caler Perry put his money where
his mouth was with this state. Hum and his wife
did more for this state charity wise than anybody that
I know of right off hand period in a story.
I mean, uh, during the tornadoes, the floods and all
(31:09):
that stuff. They they donated their real own money to help.
Speaker 1 (31:13):
Them, absolutely, and he did.
Speaker 5 (31:16):
He never got much credit for that either.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
He Scott, take Cali Perry's name out of your mouth, right,
I got your brother.
Speaker 5 (31:29):
You guys have a good day, all right, but take
care of all right, go back.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
That's just the facts about Cow. That's all there is
to it. I can go to any practice anytime. I
could walk in any Scott I have to call. I
didn't have to call. Just go down the steps practice facility, Rupperena.
It made no difference. I just said, Scott Cow was
my guy. Everyone's like, how do you how do you
(31:56):
get into you? How do you know? Pictures? Sleepless? Got
y'all get the sleepers. After the break, he propped up
in on his chair in the office, and Coach Poke's
office Scott I sent in his chair like, he's like,
what are you doing? I said, I'm making decisions. He said,
they'll probably be better than mine's coach. That's my man.
I just it is what it is. So hey, Scott,
(32:16):
isn't it funny? And we're gonna get the break sleepless
and come to you. He goes to Arkansas. He couldn't
have any success in the playoffs in his last three
years in Kentucky and Scott he should have been at
the final Foh my gosh, oh I do they make
a run? I mean a crazy run. So again, sometimes
it changes scenery. But nope, Kentucky fans, you're gonna have
(32:39):
to let coach Stoops go. I like Coach Oops. He's
a tough situation, tough conference. But it's time we all
blow on the ink. We all know and it's our
time to get fired. It is what it is, and
it's time for coach Stoops to go. We're gonna go
to break Scott when we come back. We got Sleepless
and his seminals after the break, welcome back. We've got
(33:01):
to get this jumping, bring Sleepless to the show. I'm
reading something that's just upset me completely. Cardinals fining Jonathan
Gandon for sidelines back. The coach got in the running
backs butt for dropping the football, and they're gonna finding Scott. Well,
let's get let's get Sleepless on. I can't I can't
believe this. I can't believe what I'm seeing. Sleepless Welcome

Speaker 1 (35:06):
Okay, Oklahoma at Texas.
Speaker 6 (35:11):
Mmmm, that's a good one. Oh my goodness. Isn't this
like some Red River rivalry or something like that?
Speaker 1 (35:17):
Always no question? Yes, going to it. Yes, and I'm
going with Oklahoma.
Speaker 6 (35:22):
I don't trust that that Mann and kid.
Speaker 1 (35:26):
Okay, gotcha, Sleeves, I've got what.
Speaker 6 (35:29):
You were saying, that that that coach should have should
have gave the running back of Participation trophy and held
his hands or something over there for thumbling the ball.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
You know, call him.
Speaker 6 (35:39):
Everything's gonna be okay, It's all right. You know, it's
just football, no big thing. That's all I got to say.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
Let me go, Scott, have the Cardinals lost their mind.
If you all don't know the Cardinals, the Arizona Cardinals
have find their coach one hundred thousand dollars for doing
what he is paid to do. Scott, I had verbal
confrontations with NBA players not college. They knew they couldn't
(36:07):
say anything back because I'd kill him. But Scott, I
cannot believe that they're finding him. I can't believe that
they're fighting Jonathan Gannon one hundred thousand dollars for his
sideline altercation Sunday is running back. Come on, Scott, what
has happened? I mean, guys, so I want people to
(36:28):
understand the Arizona Cardinals are finding their coach for doing
what he's paid to do. I would have cut the
kid for dropping the ball before the en zone. I've
seen so many bonehead dumb plays. I would tell my team, Scott,
I've said it before. You don't run that thing through
the back of the end zone. You drop it before
you go in. I'm cutting you just so you understand
(36:49):
you won't be in this jersey the next day. That
should be the statement, and the team should back the coaches.
It makes the NFL look dumber than dumb. When these
football players up the ball for the gonzo, Scott, it
never stops. It's like it never stops. Oh god. And
then I turned. I'm like, I can't believe I'm looking
(37:11):
at this, Scotty. What's happened to the aspect of disciplining
anything right now? Has gone crazy? Scott. They find the coach,
two people understand what happened the kid. They end up
losing to the Titans by one or two. Scott. They
(37:33):
have a player going in the end zone. He in
the end zone, he drops it before he gets there,
and they're finding the coach.
Speaker 3 (37:41):
Name one coach named one person who.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
Watched that holdups and said on Monday, Gannon said, he apologized.
I give what is he apologizing for. I'm sorry you
lost the game for us. And I told you, Scott,
this is crazy. Yes, Scott, I coach professional basketball. They
(38:07):
are much more difficult than professional football because they have
longer contracts. I want people to understand it. The longer
the contract, the harder it is guaranteed contract, the harder
it is to deal with some of these athletes because
they've got your mind eight ball, Scott. When they've got
six year deals at one hundred and fifty million bucks
at forty million dollars a year, thirty million a year,
(38:27):
and it's got they have a little control. Owners don't
like to eat that kind of money, okay, So they'd
rather roll the coach that's making four or five to
six million than the player. But it doesn't make any difference.
Paul Silas told them first day of practice. That's why
it was the same way at amt so my way
at a highway. They'll have to fire me, he says.
(38:48):
I'm fine with going home with my contract too. He
told the players. Whatever it was, he might have been
making three or four thousand, three or four million back
in nineteen ninety six, ninety nine, two in two thousand
and one, that was a lot of money there. He said,
I'm talking of going home with my twelve million too.
I didn't care. It's my way or the highway. So Scott,
(39:08):
you were my sister. Was there any other mode? Even
though I didn't have a player transfer, Yeah, I had
the one on Mary Williams my very first year transfer.
I cut him because he was acting up in the
locker room after win. You weren't there then, but I
cut him on the spot. I cut him in the
locker room. I can't everybody mad in the locker room
when we win. We're all here to win, So Scott,
(39:32):
I can't. I don't even understand this at all at all.
You have anything for to help me.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
My question is, I don't think there's a There was
a person and it was a home game, so there's
a person in that stadium that wasn't mad that he
did what he did. There was like everybody thought there
was a bone that play. Everybody thinks the same thing.
And everybody now that now that sports betting is legal everywhere.
(40:03):
They somebody lost some money on that on that play.
They were going up to that game way and cursed
him out the same way because that cost him a
five dollars on an ARLA or something. But they everybody.
So the fact that the coach had to apologize is unbelievable,
(40:23):
and he got fined for that.
Speaker 1 (40:30):
I just told him, this is a coach. So I
kind of let the emotions of what happened to get
the better of me there Yan and said, uh, yes,
that boy would have gotten cut if I was a
coach in sports radio. You have a fantastic day the world.
Bye bye,
