Speaker 4 (00:33):
Now here's Matt Jones.
Speaker 5 (00:35):
Welcome everyone.
Speaker 6 (00:36):
It is Kentucky Sports Radio, Monday, August the eleventh. I'm
Matt Jones here in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where I'm on the
end of my trip to see the Reds and the Pirates.
Getting in the car driving back tonight Your Reds have
a home game against Think Philly, but Snoop dogg playing

If you called Tj'll make them pay. Drew is in Lexington,
Shannon is in Louisville.
Speaker 5 (01:14):
Ryan is off, So.
Speaker 6 (01:15):
We've got a rare three people in three different places.
Drew Franklin, I am in Pittsburgh, where we spent the
entire weekend towards the city uh and watch the Reds
win two games and now about to head home. And
been a good, good weekend up here in the Steel City.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
I'm glad I predicted a sweep, but you know, two
out of threes not bad? Did the did the fellas
enjoy all the things beyond the baseball? I know they're
excited for some of them seeing Pittsburgh for the first time.
Speaker 6 (01:44):
So you know, you and I have made a number
of trips to Pittsburgh. I guess you and I went
on one of our baseball tours. I think you and
I went we with Shannon and Ryan for Pickle Fest.
Then you we went to years ago when Kentucky lost
to Oakland. So this is at least my fourth trip
(02:05):
to Pittsburgh, and I've had a ton of fun with
my friends. But I think, Drew, I think Pittsburgh has
a has a limit as to the place as you
could go, because I was sitting there thinking when we've
been in the past. When you and I went to
the Oakland game, we really didn't have time to do
(02:25):
anything else, remember, and then we lost and came right
back home, right, so we.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
Didn't even really do anything.
Speaker 6 (02:30):
Then when we went to Pickle Fast, they were having
this big festival and we did that. And I think
when we went to the baseball game the one time,
we just went to the game and left. So when
you get three days in the city, what I would say,
Shannon is Pittsburgh is a really good, like one day city.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Well that's what I got because I've only been there
one time, and we got that one night.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
There was a lot of I think you're good.
Speaker 5 (02:51):
Now, I think you're good.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
I think there's It was very memorable though, I mean
a lot of great things happened. We were stand in
that airbnb that was shady at best, and then we
went to the pickle Fest and you said, you know,
more than the internet. There, we tried to get pickled beer,
We met Tylee Texas.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
A lot of great things happen on that night.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
Yeah, no, I've we have.
Speaker 6 (03:10):
I've had a lot of fun a lot of fun
because because it was with my friends, but we kind
of realized, like, I think the symbol of Pittsburgh and
I don't want to be mean, because there are Pittsburgh
people listening and I and they've given me recommendations and
and and the I just the food and just everything,
and it was just it's just not great. Including Drew,
(03:32):
on our way to walk to the game yesterday, we
saw someone had lit two porta potties on fire and
one was completely incinerated. And I want you to think
just for a second of what you think a porta
potty looks like when it has been completely torched.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
Get yourself in the like to the ground, like not
standing anymore.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
But that's stunk, Okay, you know, like that goo that
was probably left, Think about what that would look like, Yeah,
portable goo. And they just leave it in the street, Shannon,
right outside the stadium, like they didn't have any sense
of maybe we ought to clean this, it might not
be a great look in front of the stadium.
Speaker 5 (04:14):
They just kind of left it right there.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
I'm glad they're doing good things with the city, really
focusing on cleaning things up, but I'm just wonder like
what is the scenario in which a porter putty is
set on fire?
Speaker 4 (04:24):
Like you're just mad?
Speaker 6 (04:26):
It has to be intentional. Sure, somebody smoking in it?
Speaker 4 (04:29):
You think somebody smoking in it, like you know, just
threw down the.
Speaker 6 (04:33):
Base's plausible, right, You're smoking in it and there's probably
not a lot of ventilation.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
I think it was somebody who was just mad at
the world, maybe wanted to make some sort of statement.
I'm gonna go mad at the fact they were in Pittsburgh.
Exactly what do we do? Set this thing on fire?
Burn it down?
Speaker 5 (04:50):
Well, don't get wrong, I did have a really good time.
Speaker 6 (04:54):
The Braves won both games I went or Braves Rands
won both games I went to. They won, uh Saturday
two to one. Then yesterday was was like four hour
crazy game one fourteen to eight. Both teams combined for
like thirty hits. There was a ton of home runs,
a lot of fun. It was hot here, but but
I've enjoyed it. You know, we went you remember when
(05:16):
we went last time? Shit and we ate it Primani
Brothers or whatever with the with the fries on the sandwich.
Speaker 5 (05:22):
Ye know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
Yeah, Yeah, And I.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
Think we were all disappointed. We did it again here,
disappointed again. I don't understand why people drew like that sandwich,
which is just like a Postromi sandwich and they just
put French fries on it.
Speaker 5 (05:37):
I don't know why people think that's great.
Speaker 6 (05:38):
I think the whole Philadelphia Cheese steak, all that stuff
way outshines whatever it is Pittsburgh does here.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Yeah, it's one of those you got to get one
wire there, but I believe I've had one and that
was enough.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
Yeah, I think that's plenty.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
I've been on a bachelor party in Pittsburgh that was real.
There's the downtown casino, so if you if you run
out there, we didn't go, always go to the We.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
Went to casino last night. I'm not gonna say which
one of my friends, but one of them. It took
him four times to gain entry. You two could probably
guess which one it was because it's happened many times
over the years.
Speaker 7 (06:12):
For that.
Speaker 6 (06:12):
They finally on the fourth attempt allowed him in, which
I thought was interesting. You rarely see someone get four attempts.
I learned a new uh casino game that I I
don't know if I recommend it because it's it's not
particularly fun, but it's called Mississippi Stud and Shannon, if
you want to lose your money while also not understanding
(06:33):
what's going on, may I recommend to you Mississippi Stud
the next time you go to the caste.
Speaker 5 (06:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:39):
I've never even heard of it before. That sounds like
a great way to lose some money.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
I want to go back to just you just to
meet your friend here who will remain aimless?
Speaker 5 (06:45):
Didn't didn't get let in four times?
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Okay, well how does that work? Did he tried different
gates each time? Like now like did the same kept
going back to the same.
Speaker 5 (06:54):
I think I could just say, because I'm not saying
which one it is?
Speaker 6 (06:56):
He he he had a uh he only everywhere he
goes he carries a knife, which, by the way, is
not something I do.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
Well.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
I mean, it's like something my grandpa did.
Speaker 6 (07:07):
He always had it is it's something grandpa's dawn, Like
my grandpa always had a knife. Yeah, when's the last
time you've been somewhere Drew and you thought I really
wish I had a knife right now?
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Have you have you ever ever thought that? I mean,
I have I have my kitchen knives. Other than that,
I knife isn't really going with me anywhere.
Speaker 6 (07:25):
Yeah, my grandfather gave me a knife, and it's still
in a drawer. You know how, I have a drawer
of things that are I might need these one day.
Speaker 5 (07:34):
It's in there.
Speaker 6 (07:35):
Well, I wasn't carrying my knife, so he carried and
he was carrying his knick. We walk in, he Shannon,
he declared the knife walking in.
Speaker 5 (07:42):
Yeah, I guess he didn't want the metal detector to
go off.
Speaker 6 (07:45):
He said, I have a knife, and the woman said, well,
you can't get in here with that, and so he
goes okay, and then he walked outside the door and Shandon,
he just set it outside the door, just set the knife.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
Comes back in second time.
Speaker 6 (08:01):
He said, sir, you can't just leave the knife sitting
outside the door and picking.
Speaker 5 (08:05):
It up later. All right, But see, wee nuber there.
He has nowhere else to put it.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
Take it like a coat check or something and drop
it off there.
Speaker 6 (08:13):
So there's a fence out the front. So he walks
back out and he puts it in through one of
the holes of the fence and leaves it on the
other side of the fence. Yeah, she said, because she
had said you're gonna have to take it off the property.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
So he takes it off the fence.
Speaker 6 (08:28):
Then he takes it over there, and she goes, that's
not far enough off the property. Oh my god, all
the way back out there get it. And I told
him he should just throw it like out as far
as he could throw it, and said he just put
it in the trash can, and he threw away his knife,
and then they let him in. So he ended up
(08:49):
losing his knife and we were able to come in
and play Mississippi stuff that there's times of charm to
get into the book to the casino.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Now he doesn't have his knife, he can't carve an apple,
he can't do any whittling while he's there.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
I mean, well, I don't even need that to begin.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
We always wonder, all you're gonna stick somebody, like, why
are you carrying that nice clear.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
If there's any emergency wintling that needs done, We're just
gonna be screwed.
Speaker 8 (09:10):
We're gonna be screwed.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
On the rest of the drive home.
Speaker 4 (09:13):
He finally got in.
Speaker 6 (09:14):
So anyway, and by the way, Summer Velly only a
game and a half back from the wild card. Now
the Mets are a game and a half ahead of
us with like forty games to go. We play the
Phillies this weekend.
Speaker 5 (09:26):
That's tough.
Speaker 6 (09:27):
The Mets play the Braves, Shannon Drew, I need you
all to help us out. The Mets have lost nine
of ten.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
Can you keep that up?
Speaker 3 (09:35):
For we own the Mets. So I think the Braves
they've got you. No, you just got to take care
of business on your end. Red still gotta win.
Speaker 5 (09:41):
But I think the brains yeah, well, the Reds schedule
starts to get hard this week. This is a tough week.
They've got the Phillies and the Brewers.
Speaker 6 (09:47):
But Drew, will you tell my Braves or tell your
Braves to play extra hard for us this week?
Speaker 5 (09:53):
I will.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
I want the Reds in the playoffs, so I hope
the Braves do well. I will note I think they've
won three games since a out the middle of July,
two of which were against the Reds. Against We're not
really hot at the time, but we'll do our best.
Speaker 7 (10:08):
Well.
Speaker 6 (10:08):
I hope it ends up having eight five, nine, two
twenty two eighty seven. Uh, we are gonna get you
ready throughout the day. Here go over some stuff. Let's
start dor.
Speaker 5 (10:17):
They had UK football If you UK Football's.
Speaker 6 (10:21):
First practice, uh like inner squad practice, or at least
the one since the thing had started. And there were
really three things that stuck out to me.
Speaker 7 (10:30):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (10:31):
Number one, the coaches all clearly have a theme. Three
of the position coaches spoke.
Speaker 5 (10:36):
They didn't.
Speaker 6 (10:37):
This is the first thing. You know, a lot of
time they don't. The position coaches don't speak until the
season gets going. It was anwar Stewart and honestly I
can't remember who the other two were, but they all
three used the same phrase. They all three said, in
some respect, we know there are doubters out there, but
we're not gonna worry about it.
Speaker 5 (10:55):
We're not doing any talking. The doubters will learn.
Speaker 6 (10:58):
An war Stewart was allowed as saying, I know there's
people out there in the media saying we're only gonna
win four or five games. I think he's what he said, So, Shannon,
I'm thinking he's talking about this show because we have
all used the four or five games scenario. Yeah, and
he says, but we are gonna show the doubters that
they're wrong. Do you like that mentality, Drew? Do you
(11:21):
like the acknowledging that people doubt saying we're not talking.
We're saying we're not gonna say anything, while I guess
they are saying something and saying we're gonna shut all
those doubters up.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
I like that he says it, and it's it's it
sounds like they're they're being very intentional and keeping everything internal.
Don't listen the outside noise. We believe in ourselves. That's
the way you want your players and your coaches to talk.
And Phil, However, as one of those DeBie downers, that
is me, my hand is raised. I worry that that
will backfire and be used against him in a few
weeks if it's not going well. Same with Bush Hampden's
(11:56):
comments about how the big Blue Wall will be back.
If this season does doesn't go well, you're gonna look
back at some of the things that have said in
the last few weeks and probably be used against them.
But I guess it is the right attitude to have.
It was just odd hearing him be so out front
about it and kind of calling people out. Really, I think.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
Shannon people coaches should do whatever it takes to motivate
their team, right, and if what motivating their team is
means saying, hey, we have doubters. I mean, all the
coaches do that. Here's what I don't understand. I don't
understand how you can claim you're not hearing it and
then respond to all of it.
Speaker 5 (12:31):
Oh they know.
Speaker 6 (12:31):
I would rather they just come out and go, everybody's
against this, good, let's go we're I mean, and then
I still prefer this staff trash talking. I prefer this
staff because I think the silence has been a huge mistake.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
What has been the biggest what has been the best
part of the off season for Kentucky football. It's been
Shias Pete.
Speaker 6 (12:54):
Right, Yeah, that that's been the best part of the
off season. Sports Center picked up our interview with him.
Speaker 5 (12:59):
Shannon, did you see that?
Speaker 4 (13:00):
No, I didn't say.
Speaker 5 (13:01):
The Sports Center Instagram pitch up that interview.
Speaker 6 (13:05):
They I mean, there have literally been millions of people
across the country see that.
Speaker 5 (13:10):
To me, that says, Hey, this fan base, they are dying.
Speaker 6 (13:15):
To know something about you all. So this whole like,
we're not gonna say anything, We're gonna put our head down.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
Watch you know, doubters, we know. I just I don't
like it.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
Now.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
Again, if they win, none of it matter. If they lose,
none of it will matter.
Speaker 6 (13:28):
I don't think they've handled this PR the off season
from a PR perspective very well outside of one Shiage
Pete interview.
Speaker 5 (13:36):
And but you know, I think it's just that's clearly
the strategy they want to do.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
I like the confidence, you know. I like the they're
they're talking up this team. I mean as opposed to
what either not saying anything. They're not gonna come out
and go, oh, we're gonna suck this year. So I
like that there's confidence. But you gotta go out there
and back it up. And of course they hear, they
might be actively seeking out radio stations to hear what's
being said about them, but they see this stuff on
social media.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
I mean, you can't you can't avoid it.
Speaker 5 (13:59):
If you're a player now, you can't avoid it. And
I'm fine with them not avoiding it. I just wish
to acknowledge it. The second thing we have to do,
and I want to talk about this a little more
after the break. What were they doing with that picture?
Speaker 8 (14:12):
Shoot?
Speaker 4 (14:14):
Oh yeah yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah. I was
hoping we would talk about what.
Speaker 5 (14:19):
Were they doing with that?
Speaker 6 (14:21):
All right, So during the break, here's what I want
you to if you're listening out there because I have
intentionally not posted it because I got fans of all
these other teams followed me.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
This is worse than the construction helmets they were.
Speaker 6 (14:32):
This is the worst thing we've done in a long
time as a UK as a UK picture video. I
have intentionally not posted it because I know how many
fans of other teams follow us.
Speaker 5 (14:45):
But we listen.
Speaker 6 (14:46):
We're family. We can all talk together, everybody during the break.
Just look up this video.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
I don't know what should they search for, Becau Drew.
Speaker 7 (14:56):
You don't.
Speaker 5 (14:56):
You shouldn't post it either. You've got too many people
following you.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Yeah, I don't want those mentions. I guess his last
name is Rainer so r a y n e R.
If you search his name, I think it will come up,
all right.
Speaker 6 (15:07):
So look up Rainer or just look up video that
makes us all cry. I want everything to be on
the same page when we talk about it.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
Yeah, maybe just because it's all Kentucky football.
Speaker 5 (15:18):
Shannon, don't you post it either?
Speaker 4 (15:19):
Oh yeah no, no, if you guys aren't gonna do
what I am.
Speaker 5 (15:22):
Now, no, Shan is I'm doing it. Do not contribute
to this video?
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Well, I mean, obviously they want people to see it.
I'm just trying to help them give some views.
Speaker 6 (15:31):
Said, do you want to be then you could be
the one to do it. But everybody look at it
and then we'll come back after the break and talk
about it.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
If I'm nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven,
it's Ksry welcome back at his Kentucky sports radio.
Speaker 6 (15:45):
If I'm nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven,
text machine seven seven two seven seven four five two
five four, one person writes, Matt, my husband always carries
a pocket knife. Ask him if he has a knife
on him and he says, am I wearing pants? So
I guess is that like a I guess it's a
manly thing to have a knife. Do you know any
(16:06):
women that carry a knife anywhere?
Speaker 2 (16:09):
I don't, Drew, No, No, I can't think of the
time I would need it. There'd be so many days
I'd walk around with a knife and never never did.
Speaker 6 (16:18):
I don't know that there's been one time in my life, Shannon,
that I've taken a knife.
Speaker 5 (16:23):
What do you do when you open it?
Speaker 3 (16:25):
Is that?
Speaker 5 (16:25):
Is there like word for it? Open the blade?
Speaker 4 (16:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (16:29):
What is that?
Speaker 5 (16:30):
But is there like a term like like switch it
or something a switch blade.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Yeah, but I don't think you're carrying what you're carrying
like a little small one that flips like a little
pocket knife.
Speaker 5 (16:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (16:41):
I'm just saying. I don't think there's ever a time
I've opened one and then used it.
Speaker 5 (16:45):
Ever.
Speaker 6 (16:46):
I think I have one, but I would never I
would never carry it. And you can't carry it into
the Pittsburgh casino. I can tell you that right now,
or they will make you leave.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
On my Pittsburgh bachelor party must be a Pittsburgh thing.
I flew there with my best friend from Lexington and
I go through security and I don't see him. I'm like,
all right, I go sit at the bar and thirty
minutes have passed and I text him like, how did
I lose you? From TSA to here? He had a
gigantic knife in his bag going through the Pittsburgh airport.
Come home from the bachelor party. So it must be
(17:15):
a Pittsburgh thing.
Speaker 6 (17:16):
And people need their map, well they must, they must
have some history with it, all right. So Shannon posted
the video, which I was very rude of him. So
I don't know, Let's let's give them for people so
you can find it on Twitter at Shannon the Dude.
It might be on KSR as well. I'm not sure.
Maybe we didn't put it there on purpose. Let's give
(17:38):
them the best for people who haven't seen. They have
two of the players holding hands like they're facing each other.
They're facing each other, hands together, and they both jump
up in the air and kick their legs up in
the air. But by kick the legs up in the air,
(18:00):
I mean like feet going backwards, so staying straight straight
up and down, but their feet go up and if
you have a hard time picturing it, no human being
jumps like this, okay, I mean it's not a natural
it's not a natural jumping.
Speaker 5 (18:19):
And they are holding each other's hand, looking at the
camera and they both jump like that. Let's give them
the best of all motives, Drew, What were they thinking?
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Okay? They they obviously have some personality. I remember King's
media day one time. DeMarcus wore glasses and held a book.
He was being like a nerd at media day. They're
trying to have fun with media day. But at no
point did they consider what other fan bases would say.
Speaker 5 (18:50):
What did that?
Speaker 6 (18:51):
But what was the point of that picture? Like like
jumping up and being goofy. I get even the little
step brother's picture, so they have like a step brother's
picture where he's leaning on him.
Speaker 5 (19:01):
Okay, that one's fine, But the jumping up in.
Speaker 6 (19:05):
The air and kicking their legs back while holding hands,
what was the what was the theory behind that.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
Someone told them to do that?
Speaker 6 (19:14):
When when the person was telling them to do that,
what were they thinking they were accomplishing.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
I think it's the opposite. I think the photographer probably said,
are you sure you want to do this? Because I
know you think the players came up with there's no
no one would make them do that. That person should
be fired if they made them do that. I think
that's them trying to show some personality, not even considering
what a horrible look is for uh. At least one
of them is your starting linebacker who is first to
(19:40):
lead your defense. I think the one on the left
is a freshman. He's probably just seeing a captain on
the team, like, Okay, I guess I better do this.
But Rayner is a starting linebacker, and the Tennessee's, the Louisville's,
you name it. They are just having so much fun
with this all the time.
Speaker 5 (19:55):
Why are they doing it?
Speaker 7 (19:56):
Why?
Speaker 5 (19:57):
What is it? Why are they holding hands?
Speaker 3 (20:01):
You're not intimidated by that video? And you don't think
that those guys get us run you over after seeing
that video?
Speaker 5 (20:06):
I mean, listen, let people be whatever they want. But
I cannot imagine taking that video and putting it out,
can you?
Speaker 9 (20:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (20:20):
He posted it himself. It wasn't like someone behind the
scenes took it and he didn't want it out. He
Rainer posted it on his account.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
Like the second half of the video is fine with him,
like taking the ball between his legs.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
That looks that stuff's fine, But what is that? What
is the job? I mean that picture that's gonna that
picture is gonna live all year.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Mm hmmm.
Speaker 5 (20:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Do you remember the Patrick toles Cat's pause cover when
he was Harry Potter.
Speaker 5 (20:45):
The Patrick toles Cat's pause cover would beat up that video, right?
Speaker 2 (20:51):
I thought that was our worst look of all.
Speaker 6 (20:53):
The Patrick toles Cat's pause cover is it's Adrian Adonish.
Speaker 5 (21:00):
Shit. I don't know what this is. When I first
saw it, I have to tell you, I thought it
was Ai. I was like, I thought somebody is screwing
with us.
Speaker 6 (21:09):
Yeah, there's no way that they would do that picture
and with that look on their face, and I guess
I still the part I don't get, Shitton is the
holding hands like it's not even it's.
Speaker 5 (21:22):
Not it's so awkward.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
Is that a trend or something that we're old?
Speaker 6 (21:26):
Okay, well that's what I ask. Is there a trend
or something that we don't understand? Am I missing something?
Speaker 5 (21:32):
Please tell me there is. I want to be told I'm.
Speaker 6 (21:35):
Missing something, because if I'm missing something, then I can
accept it and just go Oh, Tennessee Louisville fans, they
don't understand this cool trend, right, Like maybe it's like
the you know, I don't know pick the trend of
the Maybe it's like the Rizzler.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
Maybe we just don't know what he does this.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
There has to be a reason, true, I don't think
there is. I wish Ryan were here and I weren't
by myself, Mario is with me. I'd recreate it with Ryan.
I'd try to get the heat off our football players
and put it on us. Take one for the team there.
Speaker 5 (22:08):
Actually, I tell you what, No, no, you know what, Drew,
I think you do need to do that. Why don't
you grab Billy?
Speaker 2 (22:14):
I think did Billy leave, Mario. I'll get the guy
that sits outside the door. If Billy's not, just.
Speaker 5 (22:19):
Get somebody and recreate it.
Speaker 6 (22:20):
Okay, because you're right, we we we're gonna have to
take one for the team because I think we're lucky
Shannon that more of college football hasn't discovered that.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
Oh yeah, I still don't think it's as viral as
it could.
Speaker 4 (22:32):
It's not. I mean, I saw it, but I think
a lot of people were just.
Speaker 6 (22:36):
Because it was on the weekend and stuff. I don't
know if everybody has seen it.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Maybe we shouldn't have talked about it, shouldn't have tweeted it,
which is what I said to you.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
We're contributing to the viol if it goes.
Speaker 5 (22:50):
If it goes viral, it's because you. I told you.
I told you. Let's leave it amongst ourselves on this show.
Let's not put it online.
Speaker 6 (22:59):
If I'm not twenty or two eighty seven's KSR.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
TJ. Smith, personal injury attorney called TJ.
Speaker 4 (23:08):
He'll make them pay.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Now more of Kentucky Sports Radio present it by Stockton Mortgage.
Speaker 4 (23:13):
Here's Matt Jones.
Speaker 5 (23:14):
Welcome back, Tukey Sports Radio.
Speaker 6 (23:15):
Apparently UK did put that picture out the video out
originally Drew and then took it off.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
If you're gonna put out, y'all leave it, that's worse.
Speaker 6 (23:24):
Yeah, I think it is kind of worse. Now we
have a woman that's a young woman that listens. She
she writes and says, uh, you are not gen z.
You don't understand. I watched it and thought it was fun,
and that may be true. That's what I'm hoping is
the case. That's what I'm hoping is the case. I'm
hoping this is just you know, Matt, Shannon and Drew.
(23:46):
They don't get it, and that's what I'm hoping. I
will see the initial reaction online. Seems like more people
have reacted like us Drew than to say it was fun,
but that's okay, you know what. Maybe so I just
have a feeling that the kind of people that are
into college football are not going to be the kind
of people that are going to go, oh, that's fun,
that's a fun video. High score recruits though do Maybe
(24:09):
they do? Maybe it is fun. Maybe I'm wrong.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
I have my doubts, but I'm mid I'm not him.
Everything the kids are doing linebacker to be mean and
angry and I'm not getting it there.
Speaker 5 (24:22):
She just I think she just graduate school. Maybe she knows.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
I have to tell you that I overheard during the
break a conversation that was going on in the election
at Lexson Studio, and Mario was totally on board with
recreating the video.
Speaker 4 (24:35):
Billy, however, said absolutely not. I will not do it.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
And Billy is still there. By the way, Billy didn't
run off, So don't act like Billy's not there. Billy's there,
but Billy refuses to do the video.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
I did get a hard no from Billy. Not Eve
wouldn't Eve entertain That's so.
Speaker 6 (24:48):
Light, that's that's you know, what keeps Billy from reaching
his two potential is.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
Doing that doing not doing videos, like not doing video.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
You know who would do it? Ryan would do it, Yeah,
Drew would do it.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
I was about the content.
Speaker 5 (25:00):
I would do it.
Speaker 6 (25:02):
Shannon, I don't know if you would do it, Like
you and Billy are kind of the same way, Like
you all have this I'm a cool thing. I don't
know if you would do it or.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
I don't know if I would do that exactly.
Speaker 6 (25:13):
All right, let's before we go. The phones in out
Friday night. I guess they started the high school football
scrimmages in Kentucky and apparently there was a massive fight.
Speaker 5 (25:22):
Drew, have you seen this?
Speaker 2 (25:24):
I have the photos?
Speaker 5 (25:25):
Who it was Rowland County? And who is it? Bourbon County?
I feel like it was one of them.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
No, No, rownd was one of them. The other I'm
I want to make sure I get right. I started
to say, Well, so I have not seen the video
of the fight.
Speaker 5 (25:42):
I've just seen pictures of bloody people walking around county. Yeah,
Bourbon County.
Speaker 6 (25:47):
So Round County and Bourbon County they get in a
fight and it is there a video of the fight
or is it just the aftermath? Because the aftermath looks
like a Final Destinations movie, like like there.
Speaker 5 (25:59):
Are like multiple bloody people. Do we know what happened?
Speaker 2 (26:04):
I've only seen the photos and read the five hundred
comments or whatever it was with different people saying what happened,
But I have not seen an actual video.
Speaker 6 (26:12):
So I saw the KHSA made a statement about it
and like send it to all the high schools and
said y'all better act right, or we're gonna make you
recreate that video if you can.
Speaker 5 (26:23):
Football. But what what did the com Since I've been
up here. What did the come you said, there were
descriptions of what happened?
Speaker 6 (26:33):
What what?
Speaker 2 (26:33):
What were they? Well, there's the there's a picture of
a kid just his face is just all blood. That's
what you saw.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
Yeah, he looks like he's been in the ladder match.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
Yeah, in the comments and said someone took his helmet
off and hit him, hit him with it. And then
there's like stories of players running nearly fifty yards to
go find another player, people coming out of the stands.
It sounds like there was a royal rumble at this opening,
But it was just a scrimmage.
Speaker 6 (26:59):
It was a screw a man. Shannon, Do Bourbon County
and Round County have beef? What are they fighting to.
Speaker 4 (27:05):
Take those scrimmage roll? Seriously they're between those two.
Speaker 6 (27:08):
I don't know, Like, well, if you were there, I'd
like to know some details because all I've seen is
the picture of the bloody people at But like you
get that many people into place, someone I would think
would have had a video. That's one of the worst
aftermass of a high school certainly of a high school
football fight I've ever seen.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
It's not a little bit of blood.
Speaker 6 (27:29):
His face is covered, his face is He's like, it's
like Rick Flair Barry Wyndham with his face.
Speaker 5 (27:35):
Yeah, it's unbelievable.
Speaker 4 (27:37):
Cy alright, wh's up first, Let's go to John John.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
Go ahead, John.
Speaker 8 (27:42):
I'm was accused of this over the weekend. Am I
being a bad fan for thinking that this Kentucky football
team is going to go too and ten? Like? I've
seen a lot of delusional thanks where they're going to
make the playoffs. But I don't think it's bad.
Speaker 5 (27:56):
Wait all right, no, you haven't stop right there, stop
right there.
Speaker 6 (28:00):
I'm willing to listen to your two and ten argument,
and I'm willing to, but I don't. I'm not going
to let you do what people do on television, which
is they take the most extreme version of the other
argument and act like that's the mainstream. Tell me one
person that has argued Kentucky's gonna make the playoffs.
Speaker 8 (28:19):
Uh, there's a podcast called Kentucky Bluer than You.
Speaker 6 (28:25):
There's a podcast. Hang on, I'm writing this down because
I want to see if you're right. You're telling me
there's a podcast called Kentucky is Bluer than You?
Speaker 8 (28:34):
No bluer than you. It's just they're hardcore Kentucky fans.
Their whole thing is we're the most Kentucky.
Speaker 6 (28:40):
Fans, Kentucky bluer than you. Okay, and it's a podcast.
I'm gonna find this before you're going because I'm putting
a name on this. If you're gonna, if you're gonna
make the argument Kentucky bluer than You.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
Podcast sounds like a country music song.
Speaker 7 (28:55):
Are not.
Speaker 6 (28:57):
Just for the record, sir, I do not see this
on Google. I do not see a Bluer than You podcast.
Speaker 8 (29:05):
I've only seen close to them on TikTok to be
honest with you.
Speaker 6 (29:09):
All right, So you're saying, I think, hang on, hang on,
hang on, hang on, I'm going to You're you're telling me,
I'm not gonna do this right now, but if I
get online, there will be a podcast called Bluer than You.
Speaker 5 (29:26):
There should be, yes, I should that it should be
it is.
Speaker 4 (29:29):
I mean, what did you see? Maybe it's not a podcast.
Speaker 5 (29:34):
Kentucky, Kentucky bluer than You.
Speaker 6 (29:36):
And so you're saying a lot you're saying, Remember you said,
lots of people are saying this, So we're down to
bluer than You podcast?
Speaker 5 (29:44):
All right?
Speaker 6 (29:45):
Let me let me just assume for sake of argument,
that Bluer than You podcast is saying it. I don't
believe they are, but let's say they are. Now tell
me why you think we're gonna go to and two.
Speaker 8 (29:55):
I just don't believe that the offense is at a
point that would be very good. It's to me like
a group of five level offense. I don't believe in
our quarterback situation. They kind of hold the ball too long.
They're trying to play with Johnny Manziel, but don't have
the talent of Johnny Manziel. I don't believe the offensive
line had made drives and it needs to be and
I think the defense took a step back and it
(30:18):
should be decent, but like it's just not gonna be
good enough to make up for the pitfalls the offense.
Speaker 6 (30:22):
Lad all right, I appreciate the call. What are the chances, Drew?
We finished to intent.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Very slim? I mean, I'm I'm I'm not the most
optimistic person in the fan base, but two and ten
is too low of a floor. They're going to be
improved from a year ago. We just know how hard
the schedule is. They're much better than two wins.
Speaker 6 (30:42):
I think it's highly highly unlikely. But I'll know what's interesting.
If we lose Week one, it's on the tape.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
It it spreads down to eight and a half.
Speaker 5 (30:55):
Now down half week one, Shandon, it is down to
eight and a half.
Speaker 6 (31:00):
It opened, by the way, at fourteen and a half,
then was quickly down to twelve and a half. It
is now eight and a half. If you believe in
Kentucky like you should load up on that. But it
is now eight and a half.
Speaker 5 (31:12):
Shannon against Toledo in our opening leak.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
Yeah, it doesn't worry me at all. I'm not concerned
about Toledo. If you can't beat Toledo, it's over. It's over.
Speaker 5 (31:20):
Well, that's what I'm saying this guy.
Speaker 6 (31:23):
I mean, we're kind of mocking his two and ten,
but if we lose to Toledo, that is completely on
the table, isn't it, Drew.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
I mean, yeah, if they lose to Toledo, I think
they win an SEC game too. I don't want to
get carried away, and I'm I'm pretty firm on five wins,
so I'm still a downer. But I just think two
is too low for all the experience they have, and
I think they do have a much improved team from
a year ago.
Speaker 6 (31:51):
Now I want you to place the bets two parts.
Number one, is there a Bluer than You podcast?
Speaker 3 (31:58):
No, not a podcast. There may be somebody's account called that,
but not a podcast.
Speaker 5 (32:04):
Drew bluer than You podcast.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
I've never heard of it, and Google has it either,
So between the two of us, we have not found it.
Speaker 6 (32:13):
I'm gonna say no. All right, let's say there is
a Bluer than You podcast. Do you think someone on
there said we're going to the playoff.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
If anyone would predict the playoff, it would be the
podcast that claims to be bluer than any other podcasts,
So I give them that. I just have a hard
time anyone that truly follows the team went through last year.
I don't know how you could say the turnaround goes
from four wins and you can't win a home game
to now you're in the playoff.
Speaker 6 (32:35):
All right, Billy, if you, Billy, if you're not gonna
do the jumping picture you're listening right now, I would
need you to find and find out if there's a
Bluer than You podcast.
Speaker 5 (32:46):
Actually, Mario, that you could do this.
Speaker 6 (32:48):
You're Withdrew Mario, look and see if there's a Bluer
than You podcasts, and then see if there is. If
they predicted nine and three, I'm going to guess the
answer to both of those questions is false.
Speaker 5 (32:59):
But we'll find out.
Speaker 6 (33:00):
Do you know what goes perfect with a corn bread
and he fused Seltzer, an insulated koozy to keep it
nice and frosty. Folks at Cornbread or hooking, hooking you

this guy's alleged argument takes place. We'll take a break.
Be right back to Kentucky Sports Radio. Welcome back, Take
you Sports Radio. It looks like from all.
Speaker 5 (33:38):
Of my searching, there is no bluer than You podcast
he just did.
Speaker 6 (33:43):
I think he did that thing which I think a
lot of people do, which is they say they figure
out what they want to disagree with, and then they
just say a lot of people are saying the other thing.
I genuinely believe that's what happened with that Sydney Sweeney thing.
It was like a couple of people said it, and
(34:04):
then it was a lot of people, and then it
became a thing. And it wasn't even really a thing,
but people wanting to disagree with it made it a thing.
Speaker 5 (34:12):
And I think this is the same.
Speaker 6 (34:13):
Way I think this dude, except this guy I think
created he went so far, Shanon is to create a
podcast that does not exist.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
That's right. Yeah, on the flaw too. That's pretty impressive.
Speaker 6 (34:21):
I give him credit, though, I do like Bucky Small
who says, I listen to Bluer than You. It's just
two dudes claiming one is more depressed than the other one.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
I'm sad.
Speaker 5 (34:32):
Oh no, I'm sad.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
The caller has an opportunity to launch the Blurer than
You podcast.
Speaker 6 (34:40):
If that podcast existed, this could have been their moment.
But they don't exist. All right, we have to talk
for just a second about sports, uh failures here for
a minute. I don't know what to say, Drew about
the NASCAR guy, oh man, I mean, luckily he's okay,
but you know, he got on top of his car
(35:01):
to celebrate, got his foot stuck in the netting of
the car, fell and knocked himself out and broke his collarbone.
Is that as bad as celebration fail as a human
being could have. He's lucky the camera didn't catch his.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Head hitting It just disappears out of the frame.
Speaker 6 (35:23):
He just disappears because I don't think the cameraman thought
he was going to fall. That's one of the craziest
things I've ever seen, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Since it's up there, I'm actually going to pass to
Shannon because I heard him say on the pre show
that he spent all weekend just watching it over and over.
Speaker 4 (35:40):
I mean, does it make me a bad person that
I watched that and couldn't stop laughing?
Speaker 5 (35:43):
I mean maybe, Well, did you wait to make sure
he was okay before you started laughing?
Speaker 4 (35:47):
It's aid broken collar bone, he's alert, he's talking, he's fine.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
He has a broken collar bone. I said, well, I'm
gonna laugh at that. I can't help myself.
Speaker 4 (35:55):
He's not dead.
Speaker 3 (35:56):
It could have been a lot worse, though, you know,
he could have had a cracked skull or something like that.
But you know, a broken collarbone after that nasty fall
straight I mean, face planning on.
Speaker 6 (36:04):
The I mean, first of all, could you have a
worse like that was his first ever win? Yeah, so
can you imagine the joy of the victory? And then
you wake up in the hospital.
Speaker 4 (36:17):
Like what happened?
Speaker 5 (36:19):
He's like, what happened? I won?
Speaker 7 (36:21):
Did not?
Speaker 5 (36:21):
Yeah? And the he was like, did somebody beat me up?
Speaker 7 (36:25):
No?
Speaker 4 (36:25):
Man, don't fell, don't turn on your phone.
Speaker 6 (36:30):
You fell from the top of the car. And he's
out for like the rest of the season with a
broken collarbone.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
I haven't seen it, He's saying. Since since the collarbone news,
is he laughing at himself? Or is he gone into hiding?
Is he playing it off?
Speaker 5 (36:43):
Well?
Speaker 4 (36:44):
I mean, what else can you do at this point?
Speaker 6 (36:46):
I mean what I mean, that's one of the all
time fails that I've ever seen. He got his foot
stuck in the net.
Speaker 4 (36:54):
That is the most embarrassing celebration I've ever seen, like
in sports history.
Speaker 5 (36:57):
Like I've seen guys, oh there's no one.
Speaker 4 (37:00):
Injured, you know, celebrating, but not to that degree.
Speaker 6 (37:03):
I Mean you've had people like you know, Tara their
hamstring or you pull their hamstring or tear their Achilles.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
Like you've seen, he kicks the field goal and celebrates
and tears his a. C. L. Bill Grammatic.
Speaker 5 (37:17):
Yeah, but that's bad. But this dude knocked himself out.
Speaker 4 (37:23):
I was watching it on a loop for a good
two or three solid minutes.
Speaker 5 (37:27):
All right.
Speaker 6 (37:28):
Then, Uh Mario Mariano Rivera played in the Yankees Legends
Game Tours Achilles. And by the way, it wasn't even pitching.
It was while he was playing center field. He went
to run to catch and there's a video just collapses.
They've I feel like they've got to end these old
(37:49):
guys playing baseball, because you know they one dude, Sean
Casey was playing for the Savannah Bananas Tour's bicep or whatever.
But you go to playing the Yankee. To me, the
Yankees Legends game, it's just a way to embarrass people.
Johnny Damon, poor Johnny Damon.
Speaker 5 (38:08):
Shit, Yeah, did you see? I mean, all he did
was set himself up for ridicule.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
I don't want to be remembered like that. If I'm
one of these legends, like I want to be remembered
for how I was in my prime. There's no way
I would even play in one of those games because
the way it's the.
Speaker 6 (38:23):
First time they've done one. Yeah, it's the first time
they've done one since COVID. I kind of wonder now,
I kind of wonder now, Drew if they're done. I mean,
Mario Rivera ends up with an ACL injury. Johnny Damon
ends up mocked on the internet for looking like he
looked in that picture, Like, do you think they just decide.
Speaker 5 (38:39):
We just can't do this anymore?
Speaker 2 (38:42):
They should? And these players they get out there and
I'm sure their juices are flowing being back in front
of the crowd again. They've missed it and they think
those legs or those arms still work the way they
used to. And you just get to a point where
it's more dangerous than it is fun for you. And
Mariano was great sample of that. Johnny Damon just being fat.
I felt bad for him. I didn't even he just
(39:04):
showed up to wave.
Speaker 5 (39:06):
Fell bad for him.
Speaker 6 (39:07):
He just shows up at the game, probably excited to
be there, and then somebody just takes his picture.
Speaker 5 (39:14):
I felt bad.
Speaker 7 (39:15):
I did.
Speaker 5 (39:15):
I felt bad for him. I kind of felt bad
for her. What all those people the guy who wins
the race falls on his head.
Speaker 2 (39:22):
Johnny Damon's is bad because you know, he was known
for being a handsome guy. Now he's in his fifties.
Speaker 3 (39:26):
I mean.
Speaker 6 (39:28):
Like that forever, fifties, Like like he's not supposed to
look young forever. It's like we were talking about Pamela
Anderson shait like what she's older now, she's not supposed
to look like she's twenty anymore.
Speaker 2 (39:40):
Right, I'm still pretty. I think I did have to
look at the Johnny Damon picture when I first saw
it to make sure it was real. Yeah, I thought
that's Johnny Damon.
Speaker 5 (39:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (39:48):
I didn't believe it either.
Speaker 5 (39:49):
He is like fifty some years old. Who's up next?
Speaker 4 (39:52):
Radio Run?
Speaker 5 (39:53):
Radio Run?
Speaker 7 (39:56):
I am tying, thank you, good morning man, Andrew. And
who else is there this morning? Oh Shannon of course,
speaking of the old guys. Matt. I competed in the
Kentucky Senior Track and Field Games at Transylvania once again
(40:17):
and Lexington on Saturday.
Speaker 5 (40:19):
Good for you. How many gold medals did you get?
Speaker 7 (40:23):
All right? I was gonna tell you eight. All the sprints,
the fifty to one hundred, two hundred, shot put, discus, javelin,
long jump, and triple jump, and I won eight gold medals.
But I moved into a new category this year, age
category of ninety to ninety four.
Speaker 6 (40:44):
Okay, that's amazing. So you won eight gold medals. Bruce
Jenner out there? How many people were competing against you?
Speaker 7 (40:54):
Well, I've got to be honest, man. You always asked
me that and zero, but I did, I didn't. I
did meet one ninety three year old lady who watch Friends.
Speaker 5 (41:10):
Yeah, really, that's cool.
Speaker 8 (41:12):
She was.
Speaker 7 (41:13):
Actually she was a competitor against you. To see her
against you, Oh no, no, they separate the lady from
the man.
Speaker 9 (41:23):
That Yeah, And you know I wanted to say, though, Mike,
I mean in math that winning the medals is nice.
Speaker 7 (41:36):
I won't lie about that. But I enjoy more the
opportunity of seeing old friends once a year, knowing that
they are stilling good health, they are upright, and some
I have known since nineteen ninety seven when I first
entered the beginning.
Speaker 6 (41:52):
Well, I always give you a hard time about this, Rod,
but the fact that you are still throwing a shot
put in your nineties is con is very inspirational. And
throwing a discus, I'm an I couldn't even pick up
a discus. Uh, So, congratulations on your eight gold medals.
I still need someone to step up and compete. I
(42:13):
might have to let you go, right, we gotta.
Speaker 5 (42:14):
Go to break.
Speaker 6 (42:15):
I know you, but i'm i'm, I'm. I appreciate all
your your you're doing well, and your excitement and and
keep it up.
Speaker 7 (42:22):
Okay, okay, keep walking Mike.
Speaker 5 (42:26):

Speaker 4 (00:33):
Now here's Matt Jones.
Speaker 5 (00:35):
Welcome everyone.
Speaker 6 (00:36):
It is Kentucky Sports Radio, Monday, August the eleventh. I'm
Matt Jones here in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where I'm on the
end of my trip to see the Reds and the Pirates.
Getting in the car driving back tonight Your Reds have
a home game against Think Philly, but Snoop dogg playing
tonight in Cincinnati and gives Shallon Clarks Pumping Shop phone
(00:59):
line eight five twenty two eighty seven. A Vision Auto
Glass text machine is seven seven two seven five four
in this disition sponsor by the T j. Smith Lovas.
If you called Tj'll make them pay. Drew is in Lexington,
Shannon is in Louisville.
Speaker 5 (01:14):
Ryan is off, So.
Speaker 6 (01:15):
We've got a rare three people in three different places.
Drew Franklin, I am in Pittsburgh, where we spent the
entire weekend towards the city uh and watch the Reds
win two games and now about to head home. And
been a good, good weekend up here in the Steel City.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
I'm glad I predicted a sweep, but you know, two
out of threes not bad? Did the did the fellas
enjoy all the things beyond the baseball? I know they're
excited for some of them seeing Pittsburgh for the first time.
Speaker 6 (01:44):
So you know, you and I have made a number
of trips to Pittsburgh. I guess you and I went
on one of our baseball tours. I think you and
I went we with Shannon and Ryan for Pickle Fest.
Then you we went to years ago when Kentucky lost
to Oakland. So this is at least my fourth trip
(02:05):
to Pittsburgh, and I've had a ton of fun with
my friends. But I think, Drew, I think Pittsburgh has
a has a limit as to the place as you
could go, because I was sitting there thinking when we've
been in the past. When you and I went to
the Oakland game, we really didn't have time to do
(02:25):
anything else, remember, and then we lost and came right
back home, right, so we.
Speaker 5 (02:28):
Didn't even really do anything.
Speaker 6 (02:30):
Then when we went to Pickle Fast, they were having
this big festival and we did that. And I think
when we went to the baseball game the one time,
we just went to the game and left. So when
you get three days in the city, what I would say,
Shannon is Pittsburgh is a really good, like one day city.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Well that's what I got because I've only been there
one time, and we got that one night.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
There was a lot of I think you're good.
Speaker 5 (02:51):
Now, I think you're good.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
I think there's It was very memorable though, I mean
a lot of great things happened. We were stand in
that airbnb that was shady at best, and then we
went to the pickle Fest and you said, you know,
more than the internet. There, we tried to get pickled beer,
We met Tylee Texas.
Speaker 4 (03:07):
A lot of great things happen on that night.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
Yeah, no, I've we have.
Speaker 6 (03:10):
I've had a lot of fun a lot of fun
because because it was with my friends, but we kind
of realized, like, I think the symbol of Pittsburgh and
I don't want to be mean, because there are Pittsburgh
people listening and I and they've given me recommendations and
and and the I just the food and just everything,
and it was just it's just not great. Including Drew,
(03:32):
on our way to walk to the game yesterday, we
saw someone had lit two porta potties on fire and
one was completely incinerated. And I want you to think
just for a second of what you think a porta
potty looks like when it has been completely torched.
Speaker 5 (03:49):
Get yourself in the like to the ground, like not
standing anymore.
Speaker 6 (03:53):
But that's stunk, Okay, you know, like that goo that
was probably left, Think about what that would look like, Yeah,
portable goo. And they just leave it in the street, Shannon,
right outside the stadium, like they didn't have any sense
of maybe we ought to clean this, it might not
be a great look in front of the stadium.
Speaker 5 (04:14):
They just kind of left it right there.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
I'm glad they're doing good things with the city, really
focusing on cleaning things up, but I'm just wonder like
what is the scenario in which a porter putty is
set on fire?
Speaker 4 (04:24):
Like you're just mad?
Speaker 6 (04:26):
It has to be intentional. Sure, somebody smoking in it?
Speaker 4 (04:29):
You think somebody smoking in it, like you know, just
threw down the.
Speaker 6 (04:33):
Base's plausible, right, You're smoking in it and there's probably
not a lot of ventilation.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
I think it was somebody who was just mad at
the world, maybe wanted to make some sort of statement.
I'm gonna go mad at the fact they were in Pittsburgh.
Exactly what do we do? Set this thing on fire?
Burn it down?
Speaker 5 (04:50):
Well, don't get wrong, I did have a really good time.
Speaker 6 (04:54):
The Braves won both games I went or Braves Rands
won both games I went to. They won, uh Saturday
two to one. Then yesterday was was like four hour
crazy game one fourteen to eight. Both teams combined for
like thirty hits. There was a ton of home runs,
a lot of fun. It was hot here, but but
I've enjoyed it. You know, we went you remember when
(05:16):
we went last time? Shit and we ate it Primani
Brothers or whatever with the with the fries on the sandwich.
Speaker 5 (05:22):
Ye know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
Yeah, Yeah, And I.
Speaker 6 (05:24):
Think we were all disappointed. We did it again here,
disappointed again. I don't understand why people drew like that sandwich,
which is just like a Postromi sandwich and they just
put French fries on it.
Speaker 5 (05:37):
I don't know why people think that's great.
Speaker 6 (05:38):
I think the whole Philadelphia Cheese steak, all that stuff
way outshines whatever it is Pittsburgh does here.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
Yeah, it's one of those you got to get one
wire there, but I believe I've had one and that
was enough.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
Yeah, I think that's plenty.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
I've been on a bachelor party in Pittsburgh that was real.
There's the downtown casino, so if you if you run
out there, we didn't go, always go to the We.
Speaker 6 (06:00):
Went to casino last night. I'm not gonna say which
one of my friends, but one of them. It took
him four times to gain entry. You two could probably
guess which one it was because it's happened many times
over the years.
Speaker 7 (06:12):
For that.
Speaker 6 (06:12):
They finally on the fourth attempt allowed him in, which
I thought was interesting. You rarely see someone get four attempts.
I learned a new uh casino game that I I
don't know if I recommend it because it's it's not
particularly fun, but it's called Mississippi Stud and Shannon, if
you want to lose your money while also not understanding
(06:33):
what's going on, may I recommend to you Mississippi Stud
the next time you go to the caste.
Speaker 5 (06:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:39):
I've never even heard of it before. That sounds like
a great way to lose some money.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
I want to go back to just you just to
meet your friend here who will remain aimless?
Speaker 5 (06:45):
Didn't didn't get let in four times?
Speaker 3 (06:47):
Okay, well how does that work? Did he tried different
gates each time? Like now like did the same kept
going back to the same.
Speaker 5 (06:54):
I think I could just say, because I'm not saying
which one it is?
Speaker 6 (06:56):
He he he had a uh he only everywhere he
goes he carries a knife, which, by the way, is
not something I do.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
Well.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
I mean, it's like something my grandpa did.
Speaker 6 (07:07):
He always had it is it's something grandpa's dawn, Like
my grandpa always had a knife. Yeah, when's the last
time you've been somewhere Drew and you thought I really
wish I had a knife right now?
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Have you have you ever ever thought that? I mean,
I have I have my kitchen knives. Other than that,
I knife isn't really going with me anywhere.
Speaker 6 (07:25):
Yeah, my grandfather gave me a knife, and it's still
in a drawer. You know how, I have a drawer
of things that are I might need these one day.
Speaker 5 (07:34):
It's in there.
Speaker 6 (07:35):
Well, I wasn't carrying my knife, so he carried and
he was carrying his knick. We walk in, he Shannon,
he declared the knife walking in.
Speaker 5 (07:42):
Yeah, I guess he didn't want the metal detector to
go off.
Speaker 6 (07:45):
He said, I have a knife, and the woman said, well,
you can't get in here with that, and so he
goes okay, and then he walked outside the door and Shandon,
he just set it outside the door, just set the knife.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
Comes back in second time.
Speaker 6 (08:01):
He said, sir, you can't just leave the knife sitting
outside the door and picking.
Speaker 5 (08:05):
It up later. All right, But see, wee nuber there.
He has nowhere else to put it.
Speaker 4 (08:10):
Take it like a coat check or something and drop
it off there.
Speaker 6 (08:13):
So there's a fence out the front. So he walks
back out and he puts it in through one of
the holes of the fence and leaves it on the
other side of the fence. Yeah, she said, because she
had said you're gonna have to take it off the property.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
So he takes it off the fence.
Speaker 6 (08:28):
Then he takes it over there, and she goes, that's
not far enough off the property. Oh my god, all
the way back out there get it. And I told
him he should just throw it like out as far
as he could throw it, and said he just put
it in the trash can, and he threw away his knife,
and then they let him in. So he ended up
(08:49):
losing his knife and we were able to come in
and play Mississippi stuff that there's times of charm to
get into the book to the casino.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
Now he doesn't have his knife, he can't carve an apple,
he can't do any whittling while he's there.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
I mean, well, I don't even need that to begin.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
We always wonder, all you're gonna stick somebody, like, why
are you carrying that nice clear.
Speaker 6 (09:04):
If there's any emergency wintling that needs done, We're just
gonna be screwed.
Speaker 8 (09:10):
We're gonna be screwed.
Speaker 5 (09:11):
On the rest of the drive home.
Speaker 4 (09:13):
He finally got in.
Speaker 6 (09:14):
So anyway, and by the way, Summer Velly only a
game and a half back from the wild card. Now
the Mets are a game and a half ahead of
us with like forty games to go. We play the
Phillies this weekend.
Speaker 5 (09:26):
That's tough.
Speaker 6 (09:27):
The Mets play the Braves, Shannon Drew, I need you
all to help us out. The Mets have lost nine
of ten.
Speaker 5 (09:34):
Can you keep that up?
Speaker 3 (09:35):
For we own the Mets. So I think the Braves
they've got you. No, you just got to take care
of business on your end. Red still gotta win.
Speaker 5 (09:41):
But I think the brains yeah, well, the Reds schedule
starts to get hard this week. This is a tough week.
They've got the Phillies and the Brewers.
Speaker 6 (09:47):
But Drew, will you tell my Braves or tell your
Braves to play extra hard for us this week?
Speaker 5 (09:53):
I will.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
I want the Reds in the playoffs, so I hope
the Braves do well. I will note I think they've
won three games since a out the middle of July,
two of which were against the Reds. Against We're not
really hot at the time, but we'll do our best.
Speaker 7 (10:08):
Well.
Speaker 6 (10:08):
I hope it ends up having eight five, nine, two
twenty two eighty seven. Uh, we are gonna get you
ready throughout the day. Here go over some stuff. Let's
start dor.
Speaker 5 (10:17):
They had UK football If you UK Football's.
Speaker 6 (10:21):
First practice, uh like inner squad practice, or at least
the one since the thing had started. And there were
really three things that stuck out to me.
Speaker 7 (10:30):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (10:31):
Number one, the coaches all clearly have a theme. Three
of the position coaches spoke.
Speaker 5 (10:36):
They didn't.
Speaker 6 (10:37):
This is the first thing. You know, a lot of
time they don't. The position coaches don't speak until the
season gets going. It was anwar Stewart and honestly I
can't remember who the other two were, but they all
three used the same phrase. They all three said, in
some respect, we know there are doubters out there, but
we're not gonna worry about it.
Speaker 5 (10:55):
We're not doing any talking. The doubters will learn.
Speaker 6 (10:58):
An war Stewart was allowed as saying, I know there's
people out there in the media saying we're only gonna
win four or five games. I think he's what he said, So, Shannon,
I'm thinking he's talking about this show because we have
all used the four or five games scenario. Yeah, and
he says, but we are gonna show the doubters that
they're wrong. Do you like that mentality, Drew? Do you
(11:21):
like the acknowledging that people doubt saying we're not talking.
We're saying we're not gonna say anything, while I guess
they are saying something and saying we're gonna shut all
those doubters up.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
I like that he says it, and it's it's it
sounds like they're they're being very intentional and keeping everything internal.
Don't listen the outside noise. We believe in ourselves. That's
the way you want your players and your coaches to talk.
And Phil, However, as one of those DeBie downers, that
is me, my hand is raised. I worry that that
will backfire and be used against him in a few
weeks if it's not going well. Same with Bush Hampden's
(11:56):
comments about how the big Blue Wall will be back.
If this season does doesn't go well, you're gonna look
back at some of the things that have said in
the last few weeks and probably be used against them.
But I guess it is the right attitude to have.
It was just odd hearing him be so out front
about it and kind of calling people out. Really, I think.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
Shannon people coaches should do whatever it takes to motivate
their team, right, and if what motivating their team is
means saying, hey, we have doubters. I mean, all the
coaches do that. Here's what I don't understand. I don't
understand how you can claim you're not hearing it and
then respond to all of it.
Speaker 5 (12:31):
Oh they know.
Speaker 6 (12:31):
I would rather they just come out and go, everybody's
against this, good, let's go we're I mean, and then
I still prefer this staff trash talking. I prefer this
staff because I think the silence has been a huge mistake.
Speaker 5 (12:48):
What has been the biggest what has been the best
part of the off season for Kentucky football. It's been
Shias Pete.
Speaker 6 (12:54):
Right, Yeah, that that's been the best part of the
off season. Sports Center picked up our interview with him.
Speaker 5 (12:59):
Shannon, did you see that?
Speaker 4 (13:00):
No, I didn't say.
Speaker 5 (13:01):
The Sports Center Instagram pitch up that interview.
Speaker 6 (13:05):
They I mean, there have literally been millions of people
across the country see that.
Speaker 5 (13:10):
To me, that says, Hey, this fan base, they are dying.
Speaker 6 (13:15):
To know something about you all. So this whole like,
we're not gonna say anything, We're gonna put our head down.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
Watch you know, doubters, we know. I just I don't
like it.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
Now.
Speaker 5 (13:25):
Again, if they win, none of it matter. If they lose,
none of it will matter.
Speaker 6 (13:28):
I don't think they've handled this PR the off season
from a PR perspective very well outside of one Shiage
Pete interview.
Speaker 5 (13:36):
And but you know, I think it's just that's clearly
the strategy they want to do.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
I like the confidence, you know. I like the they're
they're talking up this team. I mean as opposed to
what either not saying anything. They're not gonna come out
and go, oh, we're gonna suck this year. So I
like that there's confidence. But you gotta go out there
and back it up. And of course they hear, they
might be actively seeking out radio stations to hear what's
being said about them, but they see this stuff on
social media.
Speaker 4 (13:58):
I mean, you can't you can't avoid it.
Speaker 5 (13:59):
If you're a player now, you can't avoid it. And
I'm fine with them not avoiding it. I just wish
to acknowledge it. The second thing we have to do,
and I want to talk about this a little more
after the break. What were they doing with that picture?
Speaker 8 (14:12):
Shoot?
Speaker 4 (14:14):
Oh yeah yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah. I was
hoping we would talk about what.
Speaker 5 (14:19):
Were they doing with that?
Speaker 6 (14:21):
All right, So during the break, here's what I want
you to if you're listening out there because I have
intentionally not posted it because I got fans of all
these other teams followed me.
Speaker 4 (14:30):
This is worse than the construction helmets they were.
Speaker 6 (14:32):
This is the worst thing we've done in a long
time as a UK as a UK picture video. I
have intentionally not posted it because I know how many
fans of other teams follow us.
Speaker 5 (14:45):
But we listen.
Speaker 6 (14:46):
We're family. We can all talk together, everybody during the break.
Just look up this video.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
I don't know what should they search for, Becau Drew.
Speaker 7 (14:56):
You don't.
Speaker 5 (14:56):
You shouldn't post it either. You've got too many people
following you.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Yeah, I don't want those mentions. I guess his last
name is Rainer so r a y n e R.
If you search his name, I think it will come up,
all right.
Speaker 6 (15:07):
So look up Rainer or just look up video that
makes us all cry. I want everything to be on
the same page when we talk about it.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
Yeah, maybe just because it's all Kentucky football.
Speaker 5 (15:18):
Shannon, don't you post it either?
Speaker 4 (15:19):
Oh yeah no, no, if you guys aren't gonna do
what I am.
Speaker 5 (15:22):
Now, no, Shan is I'm doing it. Do not contribute
to this video?
Speaker 3 (15:27):
Well, I mean, obviously they want people to see it.
I'm just trying to help them give some views.
Speaker 6 (15:31):
Said, do you want to be then you could be
the one to do it. But everybody look at it
and then we'll come back after the break and talk
about it.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
If I'm nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven,
it's Ksry welcome back at his Kentucky sports radio.
Speaker 6 (15:45):
If I'm nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven,
text machine seven seven two seven seven four five two
five four, one person writes, Matt, my husband always carries
a pocket knife. Ask him if he has a knife
on him and he says, am I wearing pants? So
I guess is that like a I guess it's a
manly thing to have a knife. Do you know any
(16:06):
women that carry a knife anywhere?
Speaker 2 (16:09):
I don't, Drew, No, No, I can't think of the
time I would need it. There'd be so many days
I'd walk around with a knife and never never did.
Speaker 6 (16:18):
I don't know that there's been one time in my life, Shannon,
that I've taken a knife.
Speaker 5 (16:23):
What do you do when you open it?
Speaker 3 (16:25):
Is that?
Speaker 5 (16:25):
Is there like word for it? Open the blade?
Speaker 4 (16:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (16:29):
What is that?
Speaker 5 (16:30):
But is there like a term like like switch it
or something a switch blade.
Speaker 3 (16:36):
Yeah, but I don't think you're carrying what you're carrying
like a little small one that flips like a little
pocket knife.
Speaker 5 (16:41):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (16:41):
I'm just saying. I don't think there's ever a time
I've opened one and then used it.
Speaker 5 (16:45):
Ever.
Speaker 6 (16:46):
I think I have one, but I would never I
would never carry it. And you can't carry it into
the Pittsburgh casino. I can tell you that right now,
or they will make you leave.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
On my Pittsburgh bachelor party must be a Pittsburgh thing.
I flew there with my best friend from Lexington and
I go through security and I don't see him. I'm like,
all right, I go sit at the bar and thirty
minutes have passed and I text him like, how did
I lose you? From TSA to here? He had a
gigantic knife in his bag going through the Pittsburgh airport.
Come home from the bachelor party. So it must be
(17:15):
a Pittsburgh thing.
Speaker 6 (17:16):
And people need their map, well they must, they must
have some history with it, all right. So Shannon posted
the video, which I was very rude of him. So
I don't know, Let's let's give them for people so
you can find it on Twitter at Shannon the Dude.
It might be on KSR as well. I'm not sure.
Maybe we didn't put it there on purpose. Let's give
(17:38):
them the best for people who haven't seen. They have
two of the players holding hands like they're facing each other.
They're facing each other, hands together, and they both jump
up in the air and kick their legs up in
the air. But by kick the legs up in the air,
(18:00):
I mean like feet going backwards, so staying straight straight
up and down, but their feet go up and if
you have a hard time picturing it, no human being
jumps like this, okay, I mean it's not a natural
it's not a natural jumping.
Speaker 5 (18:19):
And they are holding each other's hand, looking at the
camera and they both jump like that. Let's give them
the best of all motives, Drew, What were they thinking?
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Okay? They they obviously have some personality. I remember King's
media day one time. DeMarcus wore glasses and held a book.
He was being like a nerd at media day. They're
trying to have fun with media day. But at no
point did they consider what other fan bases would say.
Speaker 5 (18:50):
What did that?
Speaker 6 (18:51):
But what was the point of that picture? Like like
jumping up and being goofy. I get even the little
step brother's picture, so they have like a step brother's
picture where he's leaning on him.
Speaker 5 (19:01):
Okay, that one's fine, But the jumping up in.
Speaker 6 (19:05):
The air and kicking their legs back while holding hands,
what was the what was the theory behind that.
Speaker 5 (19:12):
Someone told them to do that?
Speaker 6 (19:14):
When when the person was telling them to do that,
what were they thinking they were accomplishing.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
I think it's the opposite. I think the photographer probably said,
are you sure you want to do this? Because I
know you think the players came up with there's no
no one would make them do that. That person should
be fired if they made them do that. I think
that's them trying to show some personality, not even considering
what a horrible look is for uh. At least one
of them is your starting linebacker who is first to
(19:40):
lead your defense. I think the one on the left
is a freshman. He's probably just seeing a captain on
the team, like, Okay, I guess I better do this.
But Rayner is a starting linebacker, and the Tennessee's, the Louisville's,
you name it. They are just having so much fun
with this all the time.
Speaker 5 (19:55):
Why are they doing it?
Speaker 7 (19:56):
Why?
Speaker 5 (19:57):
What is it? Why are they holding hands?
Speaker 3 (20:01):
You're not intimidated by that video? And you don't think
that those guys get us run you over after seeing
that video?
Speaker 5 (20:06):
I mean, listen, let people be whatever they want. But
I cannot imagine taking that video and putting it out,
can you?
Speaker 9 (20:20):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (20:20):
He posted it himself. It wasn't like someone behind the
scenes took it and he didn't want it out. He
Rainer posted it on his account.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
Like the second half of the video is fine with him,
like taking the ball between his legs.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
That looks that stuff's fine, But what is that? What
is the job? I mean that picture that's gonna that
picture is gonna live all year.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
Mm hmmm.
Speaker 5 (20:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Do you remember the Patrick toles Cat's pause cover when
he was Harry Potter.
Speaker 5 (20:45):
The Patrick toles Cat's pause cover would beat up that video, right?
Speaker 2 (20:51):
I thought that was our worst look of all.
Speaker 6 (20:53):
The Patrick toles Cat's pause cover is it's Adrian Adonish.
Speaker 5 (21:00):
Shit. I don't know what this is. When I first
saw it, I have to tell you, I thought it
was Ai. I was like, I thought somebody is screwing
with us.
Speaker 6 (21:09):
Yeah, there's no way that they would do that picture
and with that look on their face, and I guess
I still the part I don't get, Shitton is the
holding hands like it's not even it's.
Speaker 5 (21:22):
Not it's so awkward.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
Is that a trend or something that we're old?
Speaker 6 (21:26):
Okay, well that's what I ask. Is there a trend
or something that we don't understand? Am I missing something?
Speaker 5 (21:32):
Please tell me there is. I want to be told I'm.
Speaker 6 (21:35):
Missing something, because if I'm missing something, then I can
accept it and just go Oh, Tennessee Louisville fans, they
don't understand this cool trend, right, Like maybe it's like
the you know, I don't know pick the trend of
the Maybe it's like the Rizzler.
Speaker 5 (21:50):
Maybe we just don't know what he does this.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
There has to be a reason, true, I don't think
there is. I wish Ryan were here and I weren't
by myself, Mario is with me. I'd recreate it with Ryan.
I'd try to get the heat off our football players
and put it on us. Take one for the team there.
Speaker 5 (22:08):
Actually, I tell you what, No, no, you know what, Drew,
I think you do need to do that. Why don't
you grab Billy?
Speaker 2 (22:14):
I think did Billy leave, Mario. I'll get the guy
that sits outside the door. If Billy's not, just.
Speaker 5 (22:19):
Get somebody and recreate it.
Speaker 6 (22:20):
Okay, because you're right, we we we're gonna have to
take one for the team because I think we're lucky
Shannon that more of college football hasn't discovered that.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
Oh yeah, I still don't think it's as viral as
it could.
Speaker 4 (22:32):
It's not. I mean, I saw it, but I think
a lot of people were just.
Speaker 6 (22:36):
Because it was on the weekend and stuff. I don't
know if everybody has seen it.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
Maybe we shouldn't have talked about it, shouldn't have tweeted it,
which is what I said to you.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
We're contributing to the viol if it goes.
Speaker 5 (22:50):
If it goes viral, it's because you. I told you.
I told you. Let's leave it amongst ourselves on this show.
Let's not put it online.
Speaker 6 (22:59):
If I'm not twenty or two eighty seven's KSR.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
TJ. Smith, personal injury attorney called TJ.
Speaker 4 (23:08):
He'll make them pay.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
Now more of Kentucky Sports Radio present it by Stockton Mortgage.
Speaker 4 (23:13):
Here's Matt Jones.
Speaker 5 (23:14):
Welcome back, Tukey Sports Radio.
Speaker 6 (23:15):
Apparently UK did put that picture out the video out
originally Drew and then took it off.
Speaker 2 (23:21):
If you're gonna put out, y'all leave it, that's worse.
Speaker 6 (23:24):
Yeah, I think it is kind of worse. Now we
have a woman that's a young woman that listens. She
she writes and says, uh, you are not gen z.
You don't understand. I watched it and thought it was fun,
and that may be true. That's what I'm hoping is
the case. That's what I'm hoping is the case. I'm
hoping this is just you know, Matt, Shannon and Drew.
(23:46):
They don't get it, and that's what I'm hoping. I
will see the initial reaction online. Seems like more people
have reacted like us Drew than to say it was fun,
but that's okay, you know what. Maybe so I just
have a feeling that the kind of people that are
into college football are not going to be the kind
of people that are going to go, oh, that's fun,
that's a fun video. High score recruits though do Maybe
(24:09):
they do? Maybe it is fun. Maybe I'm wrong.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
I have my doubts, but I'm mid I'm not him.
Everything the kids are doing linebacker to be mean and
angry and I'm not getting it there.
Speaker 5 (24:22):
She just I think she just graduate school. Maybe she knows.
Speaker 3 (24:25):
I have to tell you that I overheard during the
break a conversation that was going on in the election
at Lexson Studio, and Mario was totally on board with
recreating the video.
Speaker 4 (24:35):
Billy, however, said absolutely not. I will not do it.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
And Billy is still there. By the way, Billy didn't
run off, So don't act like Billy's not there. Billy's there,
but Billy refuses to do the video.
Speaker 2 (24:44):
I did get a hard no from Billy. Not Eve
wouldn't Eve entertain That's so.
Speaker 6 (24:48):
Light, that's that's you know, what keeps Billy from reaching
his two potential is.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
Doing that doing not doing videos, like not doing video.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
You know who would do it? Ryan would do it, Yeah,
Drew would do it.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
I was about the content.
Speaker 5 (25:00):
I would do it.
Speaker 6 (25:02):
Shannon, I don't know if you would do it, Like
you and Billy are kind of the same way, Like
you all have this I'm a cool thing. I don't
know if you would do it or.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
I don't know if I would do that exactly.
Speaker 6 (25:13):
All right, let's before we go. The phones in out
Friday night. I guess they started the high school football
scrimmages in Kentucky and apparently there was a massive fight.
Speaker 5 (25:22):
Drew, have you seen this?
Speaker 2 (25:24):
I have the photos?
Speaker 5 (25:25):
Who it was Rowland County? And who is it? Bourbon County?
I feel like it was one of them.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
No, No, rownd was one of them. The other I'm
I want to make sure I get right. I started
to say, Well, so I have not seen the video
of the fight.
Speaker 5 (25:42):
I've just seen pictures of bloody people walking around county. Yeah,
Bourbon County.
Speaker 6 (25:47):
So Round County and Bourbon County they get in a
fight and it is there a video of the fight
or is it just the aftermath? Because the aftermath looks
like a Final Destinations movie, like like there.
Speaker 5 (25:59):
Are like multiple bloody people. Do we know what happened?
Speaker 2 (26:04):
I've only seen the photos and read the five hundred
comments or whatever it was with different people saying what happened,
But I have not seen an actual video.
Speaker 6 (26:12):
So I saw the KHSA made a statement about it
and like send it to all the high schools and
said y'all better act right, or we're gonna make you
recreate that video if you can.
Speaker 5 (26:23):
Football. But what what did the com Since I've been
up here. What did the come you said, there were
descriptions of what happened?
Speaker 6 (26:33):
What what?
Speaker 2 (26:33):
What were they? Well, there's the there's a picture of
a kid just his face is just all blood. That's
what you saw.
Speaker 5 (26:40):
Yeah, he looks like he's been in the ladder match.
Speaker 2 (26:42):
Yeah, in the comments and said someone took his helmet
off and hit him, hit him with it. And then
there's like stories of players running nearly fifty yards to
go find another player, people coming out of the stands.
It sounds like there was a royal rumble at this opening,
But it was just a scrimmage.
Speaker 6 (26:59):
It was a screw a man. Shannon, Do Bourbon County
and Round County have beef? What are they fighting to.
Speaker 4 (27:05):
Take those scrimmage roll? Seriously they're between those two.
Speaker 6 (27:08):
I don't know, Like, well, if you were there, I'd
like to know some details because all I've seen is
the picture of the bloody people at But like you
get that many people into place, someone I would think
would have had a video. That's one of the worst
aftermass of a high school certainly of a high school
football fight I've ever seen.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
It's not a little bit of blood.
Speaker 6 (27:29):
His face is covered, his face is He's like, it's
like Rick Flair Barry Wyndham with his face.
Speaker 5 (27:35):
Yeah, it's unbelievable.
Speaker 4 (27:37):
Cy alright, wh's up first, Let's go to John John.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
Go ahead, John.
Speaker 8 (27:42):
I'm was accused of this over the weekend. Am I
being a bad fan for thinking that this Kentucky football
team is going to go too and ten? Like? I've
seen a lot of delusional thanks where they're going to
make the playoffs. But I don't think it's bad.
Speaker 5 (27:56):
Wait all right, no, you haven't stop right there, stop
right there.
Speaker 6 (28:00):
I'm willing to listen to your two and ten argument,
and I'm willing to, but I don't. I'm not going
to let you do what people do on television, which
is they take the most extreme version of the other
argument and act like that's the mainstream. Tell me one
person that has argued Kentucky's gonna make the playoffs.
Speaker 8 (28:19):
Uh, there's a podcast called Kentucky Bluer than You.
Speaker 6 (28:25):
There's a podcast. Hang on, I'm writing this down because
I want to see if you're right. You're telling me
there's a podcast called Kentucky is Bluer than You?
Speaker 8 (28:34):
No bluer than you. It's just they're hardcore Kentucky fans.
Their whole thing is we're the most Kentucky.
Speaker 6 (28:40):
Fans, Kentucky bluer than you. Okay, and it's a podcast.
I'm gonna find this before you're going because I'm putting
a name on this. If you're gonna, if you're gonna
make the argument Kentucky bluer than You.
Speaker 4 (28:52):
Podcast sounds like a country music song.
Speaker 7 (28:55):
Are not.
Speaker 6 (28:57):
Just for the record, sir, I do not see this
on Google. I do not see a Bluer than You podcast.
Speaker 8 (29:05):
I've only seen close to them on TikTok to be
honest with you.
Speaker 6 (29:09):
All right, So you're saying, I think, hang on, hang on,
hang on, hang on, I'm going to You're you're telling me,
I'm not gonna do this right now, but if I
get online, there will be a podcast called Bluer than You.
Speaker 5 (29:26):
There should be, yes, I should that it should be
it is.
Speaker 4 (29:29):
I mean, what did you see? Maybe it's not a podcast.
Speaker 5 (29:34):
Kentucky, Kentucky bluer than You.
Speaker 6 (29:36):
And so you're saying a lot you're saying, Remember you said,
lots of people are saying this, So we're down to
bluer than You podcast?
Speaker 5 (29:44):
All right?
Speaker 6 (29:45):
Let me let me just assume for sake of argument,
that Bluer than You podcast is saying it. I don't
believe they are, but let's say they are. Now tell
me why you think we're gonna go to and two.
Speaker 8 (29:55):
I just don't believe that the offense is at a
point that would be very good. It's to me like
a group of five level offense. I don't believe in
our quarterback situation. They kind of hold the ball too long.
They're trying to play with Johnny Manziel, but don't have
the talent of Johnny Manziel. I don't believe the offensive
line had made drives and it needs to be and
I think the defense took a step back and it
(30:18):
should be decent, but like it's just not gonna be
good enough to make up for the pitfalls the offense.
Speaker 6 (30:22):
Lad all right, I appreciate the call. What are the chances, Drew?
We finished to intent.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Very slim? I mean, I'm I'm I'm not the most
optimistic person in the fan base, but two and ten
is too low of a floor. They're going to be
improved from a year ago. We just know how hard
the schedule is. They're much better than two wins.
Speaker 6 (30:42):
I think it's highly highly unlikely. But I'll know what's interesting.
If we lose Week one, it's on the tape.
Speaker 2 (30:53):
It it spreads down to eight and a half.
Speaker 5 (30:55):
Now down half week one, Shandon, it is down to
eight and a half.
Speaker 6 (31:00):
It opened, by the way, at fourteen and a half,
then was quickly down to twelve and a half. It
is now eight and a half. If you believe in
Kentucky like you should load up on that. But it
is now eight and a half.
Speaker 5 (31:12):
Shannon against Toledo in our opening leak.
Speaker 3 (31:15):
Yeah, it doesn't worry me at all. I'm not concerned
about Toledo. If you can't beat Toledo, it's over. It's over.
Speaker 5 (31:20):
Well, that's what I'm saying this guy.
Speaker 6 (31:23):
I mean, we're kind of mocking his two and ten,
but if we lose to Toledo, that is completely on
the table, isn't it, Drew.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
I mean, yeah, if they lose to Toledo, I think
they win an SEC game too. I don't want to
get carried away, and I'm I'm pretty firm on five wins,
so I'm still a downer. But I just think two
is too low for all the experience they have, and
I think they do have a much improved team from
a year ago.
Speaker 6 (31:51):
Now I want you to place the bets two parts.
Number one, is there a Bluer than You podcast?
Speaker 3 (31:58):
No, not a podcast. There may be somebody's account called that,
but not a podcast.
Speaker 5 (32:04):
Drew bluer than You podcast.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
I've never heard of it, and Google has it either,
So between the two of us, we have not found it.
Speaker 6 (32:13):
I'm gonna say no. All right, let's say there is
a Bluer than You podcast. Do you think someone on
there said we're going to the playoff.
Speaker 2 (32:19):
If anyone would predict the playoff, it would be the
podcast that claims to be bluer than any other podcasts,
So I give them that. I just have a hard
time anyone that truly follows the team went through last year.
I don't know how you could say the turnaround goes
from four wins and you can't win a home game
to now you're in the playoff.
Speaker 6 (32:35):
All right, Billy, if you, Billy, if you're not gonna
do the jumping picture you're listening right now, I would
need you to find and find out if there's a
Bluer than You podcast.
Speaker 5 (32:46):
Actually, Mario, that you could do this.
Speaker 6 (32:48):
You're Withdrew Mario, look and see if there's a Bluer
than You podcasts, and then see if there is. If
they predicted nine and three, I'm going to guess the
answer to both of those questions is false.
Speaker 5 (32:59):
But we'll find out.
Speaker 6 (33:00):
Do you know what goes perfect with a corn bread
and he fused Seltzer, an insulated koozy to keep it
nice and frosty. Folks at Cornbread or hooking, hooking you

this guy's alleged argument takes place. We'll take a break.
Be right back to Kentucky Sports Radio. Welcome back, Take
you Sports Radio. It looks like from all.
Speaker 5 (33:38):
Of my searching, there is no bluer than You podcast
he just did.
Speaker 6 (33:43):
I think he did that thing which I think a
lot of people do, which is they say they figure
out what they want to disagree with, and then they
just say a lot of people are saying the other thing.
I genuinely believe that's what happened with that Sydney Sweeney thing.
It was like a couple of people said it, and
(34:04):
then it was a lot of people, and then it
became a thing. And it wasn't even really a thing,
but people wanting to disagree with it made it a thing.
Speaker 5 (34:12):
And I think this is the same.
Speaker 6 (34:13):
Way I think this dude, except this guy I think
created he went so far, Shanon is to create a
podcast that does not exist.
Speaker 4 (34:19):
That's right. Yeah, on the flaw too. That's pretty impressive.
Speaker 6 (34:21):
I give him credit, though, I do like Bucky Small
who says, I listen to Bluer than You. It's just
two dudes claiming one is more depressed than the other one.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
I'm sad.
Speaker 5 (34:32):
Oh no, I'm sad.
Speaker 2 (34:35):
The caller has an opportunity to launch the Blurer than
You podcast.
Speaker 6 (34:40):
If that podcast existed, this could have been their moment.
But they don't exist. All right, we have to talk
for just a second about sports, uh failures here for
a minute. I don't know what to say, Drew about
the NASCAR guy, oh man, I mean, luckily he's okay,
but you know, he got on top of his car
(35:01):
to celebrate, got his foot stuck in the netting of
the car, fell and knocked himself out and broke his collarbone.
Is that as bad as celebration fail as a human
being could have. He's lucky the camera didn't catch his.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Head hitting It just disappears out of the frame.
Speaker 6 (35:23):
He just disappears because I don't think the cameraman thought
he was going to fall. That's one of the craziest
things I've ever seen, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Since it's up there, I'm actually going to pass to
Shannon because I heard him say on the pre show
that he spent all weekend just watching it over and over.
Speaker 4 (35:40):
I mean, does it make me a bad person that
I watched that and couldn't stop laughing?
Speaker 5 (35:43):
I mean maybe, Well, did you wait to make sure
he was okay before you started laughing?
Speaker 4 (35:47):
It's aid broken collar bone, he's alert, he's talking, he's fine.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
He has a broken collar bone. I said, well, I'm
gonna laugh at that. I can't help myself.
Speaker 4 (35:55):
He's not dead.
Speaker 3 (35:56):
It could have been a lot worse, though, you know,
he could have had a cracked skull or something like that.
But you know, a broken collarbone after that nasty fall
straight I mean, face planning on.
Speaker 6 (36:04):
The I mean, first of all, could you have a
worse like that was his first ever win? Yeah, so
can you imagine the joy of the victory? And then
you wake up in the hospital.
Speaker 4 (36:17):
Like what happened?
Speaker 5 (36:19):
He's like, what happened? I won?
Speaker 7 (36:21):
Did not?
Speaker 5 (36:21):
Yeah? And the he was like, did somebody beat me up?
Speaker 7 (36:25):
No?
Speaker 4 (36:25):
Man, don't fell, don't turn on your phone.
Speaker 6 (36:30):
You fell from the top of the car. And he's
out for like the rest of the season with a
broken collarbone.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
I haven't seen it, He's saying. Since since the collarbone news,
is he laughing at himself? Or is he gone into hiding?
Is he playing it off?
Speaker 5 (36:43):
Well?
Speaker 4 (36:44):
I mean, what else can you do at this point?
Speaker 6 (36:46):
I mean what I mean, that's one of the all
time fails that I've ever seen. He got his foot
stuck in the net.
Speaker 4 (36:54):
That is the most embarrassing celebration I've ever seen, like
in sports history.
Speaker 5 (36:57):
Like I've seen guys, oh there's no one.
Speaker 4 (37:00):
Injured, you know, celebrating, but not to that degree.
Speaker 6 (37:03):
I Mean you've had people like you know, Tara their
hamstring or you pull their hamstring or tear their Achilles.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
Like you've seen, he kicks the field goal and celebrates
and tears his a. C. L. Bill Grammatic.
Speaker 5 (37:17):
Yeah, but that's bad. But this dude knocked himself out.
Speaker 4 (37:23):
I was watching it on a loop for a good
two or three solid minutes.
Speaker 5 (37:27):
All right.
Speaker 6 (37:28):
Then, Uh Mario Mariano Rivera played in the Yankees Legends
Game Tours Achilles. And by the way, it wasn't even pitching.
It was while he was playing center field. He went
to run to catch and there's a video just collapses.
They've I feel like they've got to end these old
(37:49):
guys playing baseball, because you know they one dude, Sean
Casey was playing for the Savannah Bananas Tour's bicep or whatever.
But you go to playing the Yankee. To me, the
Yankees Legends game, it's just a way to embarrass people.
Johnny Damon, poor Johnny Damon.
Speaker 5 (38:08):
Shit, Yeah, did you see? I mean, all he did
was set himself up for ridicule.
Speaker 3 (38:14):
I don't want to be remembered like that. If I'm
one of these legends, like I want to be remembered
for how I was in my prime. There's no way
I would even play in one of those games because
the way it's the.
Speaker 6 (38:23):
First time they've done one. Yeah, it's the first time
they've done one since COVID. I kind of wonder now,
I kind of wonder now, Drew if they're done. I mean,
Mario Rivera ends up with an ACL injury. Johnny Damon
ends up mocked on the internet for looking like he
looked in that picture, Like, do you think they just decide.
Speaker 5 (38:39):
We just can't do this anymore?
Speaker 2 (38:42):
They should? And these players they get out there and
I'm sure their juices are flowing being back in front
of the crowd again. They've missed it and they think
those legs or those arms still work the way they
used to. And you just get to a point where
it's more dangerous than it is fun for you. And
Mariano was great sample of that. Johnny Damon just being fat.
I felt bad for him. I didn't even he just
(39:04):
showed up to wave.
Speaker 5 (39:06):
Fell bad for him.
Speaker 6 (39:07):
He just shows up at the game, probably excited to
be there, and then somebody just takes his picture.
Speaker 5 (39:14):
I felt bad.
Speaker 7 (39:15):
I did.
Speaker 5 (39:15):
I felt bad for him. I kind of felt bad
for her. What all those people the guy who wins
the race falls on his head.

Like that forever, fifties, Like like he's not supposed to
look young forever. It's like we were talking about Pamela
Anderson shait like what she's older now, she's not supposed
to look like she's twenty anymore.
Speaker 2 (39:40):
Right, I'm still pretty. I think I did have to
look at the Johnny Damon picture when I first saw
it to make sure it was real. Yeah, I thought
that's Johnny Damon.

Yeah.
Speaker 4 (39:48):

Speaker 7 (39:56):
I am tying, thank you, good morning man, Andrew. And
who else is there this morning? Oh Shannon of course,
speaking of the old guys. Matt. I competed in the
Kentucky Senior Track and Field Games at Transylvania once again
(40:17):
and Lexington on Saturday.
Speaker 5 (40:19):
Good for you. How many gold medals did you get?
Speaker 7 (40:23):
All right? I was gonna tell you eight. All the sprints,
the fifty to one hundred, two hundred, shot put, discus, javelin,
long jump, and triple jump, and I won eight gold medals.
But I moved into a new category this year, age
category of ninety to ninety four.
Speaker 6 (40:44):
Okay, that's amazing. So you won eight gold medals. Bruce
Jenner out there? How many people were competing against you?
Speaker 7 (40:54):
Well, I've got to be honest, man. You always asked
me that and zero, but I did, I didn't. I
did meet one ninety three year old lady who watch Friends.
Speaker 5 (41:10):
Yeah, really, that's cool.
Speaker 8 (41:12):
She was.
Speaker 7 (41:13):
Actually she was a competitor against you. To see her
against you, Oh no, no, they separate the lady from
the man.
Speaker 9 (41:23):
That Yeah, And you know I wanted to say, though, Mike,
I mean in math that winning the medals is nice.
Speaker 7 (41:36):
I won't lie about that. But I enjoy more the
opportunity of seeing old friends once a year, knowing that
they are stilling good health, they are upright, and some
I have known since nineteen ninety seven when I first
entered the beginning.
Speaker 6 (41:52):
Well, I always give you a hard time about this, Rod,
but the fact that you are still throwing a shot
put in your nineties is con is very inspirational. And
throwing a discus, I'm an I couldn't even pick up
a discus. Uh, So, congratulations on your eight gold medals.
I still need someone to step up and compete. I
(42:13):
might have to let you go, right, we gotta.

your your you're doing well, and your excitement and and
