Speaker 3: Welcome to our two of Kentucky Sports Radio present it by Stockton Mortgage.

00:01:03
Speaker 4: Now here's Matt Jones quarterback.

00:01:05
Speaker 5: I remember two Kentucky Sports Radio eight F I've nine two eight oh twenty two eighty seven. Uh text machine seven seven two seven seven four five two five four Here at Ksbar where the wings are starting to flow. We got new staff training and uh getting everything ready. Saturday, we open at nine for breakfast. Should be fun. Our pregame show Saturday starts at eight thirty am, but the doors here don't open till nine. But it starts at eight thirty am for people who be asking me, yes, the buses will be going to the game from here, which is probably the easiest way to get to the game. It's just a I think, is it a dollar? Is that what the ride is?

00:01:43
Speaker 6: Change? It's always been a dollar.

00:01:44
Speaker 5: It's a dollar there and a dollar back, and you can park. I mean the reason it's the best deal is you can park here for free and it's a dollar. Although I will say, uh, we do like the businesses here do require you to patron the business, so you can't just like drop your car off and leave or you will be taken to Alligator Alcatraz.

00:02:03
Speaker 6: So just for just so people know. Yeah, and the.

00:02:07
Speaker 7: Same bus that takes the stadium will take you out Alligator Alcatraz.

00:02:10
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's a tough drive, to be honest with you, if I'm nine to twenty two eighty seven. We got some folks on, but a couple things before we do. Ryan number one Summrvelli officially ended last night. Sad about it.

00:02:23
Speaker 6: It was. It was a good run. I have to tell you.

00:02:25
Speaker 5: It got almost to my birthday, which I think is much better than I would have thought.

00:02:31
Speaker 6: It's ended just because they can't hit.

00:02:33
Speaker 5: Uh, basically it ends on the West Coast, losing two or three in Arizona and now chance to get swept in here tonight in LA. But the bigger thing is the Mets have kind of found their groove and we can't really hit consistently. We're a player short pictures are getting hurt. It was a fun ride, though. I enjoyed this team quite a bit, and then I'm really excited for next year. I think they if they can go get one player during the off season, I think they got a chance to be really good.

00:02:59
Speaker 2: I gotta admit you hung in there longer than Shanon. I both thought you were going to We thought maybe by mid May you'd already tap out. Like I'm out, Summer Velly's over.

00:03:07
Speaker 5: I can tell you the moment I tapped out was when that when Marte bunted last night, that was that was it. You down two to one, third inning, first and second, nobody out. You know, you know the Dodger's gonna score more. You're in there, home, you got, you got, you got. Marte followed by Ellie like you gotta you gotta go for it. He bunts it, pops it up, turns into a double play, and at that moment I said, the Summer Velly is unfortunately over. But I did, like I said, did really enjoy it. And then they announced yesterday next season opening day is the Red Sox.

00:03:40
Speaker 2: Oh my wow.

00:03:41
Speaker 6: If you think I'm not selling that ticket.

00:03:44
Speaker 2: Hoping today's a big ticket anyway, I mean, that's the only thing.

00:03:48
Speaker 5: I don't like is normally the Red Sox are a good ticket in and of itself, but opening Day in the Red Sox, between me and you, I feel like I can get like a grand each for that ticket if i'm I mean, I could probably I can pay for a good chunk of my season tickets just with that game. So there's no way I mean I'll go. I'll sit up in the top. But there's no way I'm I'm not selling that one.

00:04:13
Speaker 7: Is there any way you could talk yourself back into the the month.

00:04:16
Speaker 6: Left, you're really out cower.

00:04:19
Speaker 2: No.

00:04:19
Speaker 5: I mean I may still watch games. I may still watch the game three and a half. I may still watch the game. But they're done. I can just like you can, you know how, sometimes you can just tell like we're done. It's okay, but we're done. I'm still gonna watch them because they're fun. I want to see They'll bring this South Steward guy up this weekend. He's he's kind of a future star, so I want to watch him.

00:04:40
Speaker 6: But but they're done.

00:04:40
Speaker 7: It's sad to see the end of the run. We followed this roller coaster since the spring. It's been up and down every week, and now it's fun.

00:04:46
Speaker 5: When I looked at the calendar back in June, I kind of thought this was when it was gonna end.

00:04:52
Speaker 6: This road trip.

00:04:53
Speaker 5: It just kind of felt like, you know, because they got to go back out to the West Coast again in two weeks, so it's it's over.

00:04:59
Speaker 6: But it was, But I I enjoyed.

00:05:01
Speaker 5: I did value it, yes, and I gave you I'm giving you my tickets for sun.

00:05:05
Speaker 2: I appreciate you tapping out like I watched the Cardinals and reds Now on Sunday. Because you're tapping out.

00:05:09
Speaker 6: I was gonna give them to you anyway.

00:05:10
Speaker 2: You appreciate that, Daddy.

00:05:13
Speaker 7: Come on, no, stop, that made me uncomfortable.

00:05:18
Speaker 4: Ryan, What are you doing.

00:05:21
Speaker 2: That?

00:05:23
Speaker 6: You just you can't do that?

00:05:24
Speaker 8: Like you can't.

00:05:25
Speaker 6: You can't do that. Like it's not it's it's not. It's not. It's not a positive like it's not.

00:05:33
Speaker 5: It doesn't make I mean literally every single listener out there, it ran up their spine when you said that negatively, like.

00:05:43
Speaker 7: You scooed it over to get away. Just naturally, I started moving it's all.

00:05:47
Speaker 5: First of all, it pleases no one. It doesn't please the listener. Certainly doesn't please me.

00:05:53
Speaker 6: Uh it's it's.

00:05:54
Speaker 5: Not since yeah, I think it pleased one person maybe giggle. No, stop, do you promise you're not gonna.

00:06:03
Speaker 6: Do that again? I promise I'm gonna roll up them in you and bop them in the nose. No, no, no, don't encourage you.

00:06:09
Speaker 5: Stop uncle mad Okay, I don't love that either, but I can do I can deal with that, all right, It's part of the problem, Ryan, is even normal words come out creepy when.

00:06:21
Speaker 6: You say so.

00:06:22
Speaker 5: If you say something like that, it just comes out extra creepy.

00:06:26
Speaker 2: So please don't turn down the creepiness.

00:06:30
Speaker 5: But I don't think you're gonna be able to do that. So just certain things, just don't say it. Just don't say Cracker Barrel changed its logo back.

00:06:37
Speaker 2: They did.

00:06:40
Speaker 6: People don't seem to get.

00:06:43
Speaker 5: My joke I think is good, which is they're bringing back the barrel and the cracker. But nobody seems to think that's as funny as I do. But nevertheless, it's back. It was only gone for a few days. Here's what I'm gonna say. I think, Shannon, now that they're bringing it back, you could argue the best publicity they could have ever had.

00:07:01
Speaker 3: Of course, Yeah, there's stocks going back up.

00:07:04
Speaker 4: Their stocks back are happy again.

00:07:07
Speaker 5: People to me also say people don't understand how stocks work. When you say, well, they lost one hundred and fifty million dollars, No they didn't. The value goes there, but they didn't. Nobody took that money from them. It's how much people are paying for their stock. You know, their stock is down fifty percent in the last five years, like it used to be like one hundred and ten and now it's fifty seven. So they were already heading a pretty negative direction. But now they've bounced right back up, and they had everybody talking about Cracker Barrel again. And now there's gonna be people who like boycotted it who now are gonna go back. Like Shannon, I think it ended up being a masterful set of publicity. Whether they intended that or not, it ended up working out.

00:07:44
Speaker 3: Is the best publicity Cracker Barrel has ever gotten. Now, they didn't say they wouldn't change the inside of it, which really is what got to me more so than the logo. I didn't care about the logo, but don't change the inside of it. They haven't committed to going back to them.

00:07:56
Speaker 5: What they said was yeah, But what they said was right. They're only doing a different insight on the new ones. The old ones are gonna stay the same.

00:08:03
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, I got a different understanding of it than you do, because I was told that they were going to go through and remodel all of them slowly, not all at once. It would take a couple of years.

00:08:11
Speaker 6: Okay, Well, maybe I'm wrong about that either way.

00:08:16
Speaker 5: In hindsight, Drew, I think it worked out for him really well.

00:08:19
Speaker 6: Like I think it got everybody talking about it.

00:08:21
Speaker 5: It got people saying what they liked, but they didn't like maybe what they needed to improve, and so I think it.

00:08:26
Speaker 6: Ended up being a net positive for Cracker Barrel.

00:08:29
Speaker 2: In the long world.

00:08:30
Speaker 7: Yeah, probably an inside job because they're nine percent today alone. So anyone got that dip your little money making opportunity here. I think they did it on purpose.

00:08:39
Speaker 5: Insider trading, yep, it work sold at the top, put out all this bad publicity that bought right back in.

00:08:45
Speaker 6: Yeah, you could probably made some money if you did that.

00:08:48
Speaker 2: Right, you know, new coke and old coke. And it worked for them, And so I think maybe Cracker Barrel did this. Maybe this was their grand plan all along to get people. When's the last time we ever talked about cracker Barrel? What's the last time the national.

00:08:59
Speaker 6: Meeting we moved Middlesborough? That was a big That was big when.

00:09:02
Speaker 4: That happened, that Crocker Barrow in the food bracket.

00:09:04
Speaker 6: Yeah, now here's the question.

00:09:06
Speaker 5: Would now that it's on your mind, are you more likely to go to a Cracker Barrel now? I actually think I kind of am because I just hadn't thought about it in so long. It had not even occurred to me to think about going, And now you know, maybe you do.

00:09:20
Speaker 2: Right.

00:09:22
Speaker 7: I went to Cracker bearl two weeks ago before all this, so I was still in my same place with cracker barrel. But I bet there are people that will now get excited that it's sting like that. People will get talked into going now to celebrate that they're keeping the old man in his barrel in front of mine.

00:09:36
Speaker 2: Of course, I think more people are going to go now because it's been in the news.

00:09:39
Speaker 6: Yeah, how awkward is it for the person that had the idea of the logo you just leave.

00:09:43
Speaker 5: Something, You just get your things and something for the people who said do the different logo?

00:09:47
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was your one contribution to the.

00:09:49
Speaker 6: Yeah, and you know what, that's good.

00:09:52
Speaker 5: It does go to show though, like they couldn't have thought when they did it it was going to end up like this, But it was a good pivot to oh back yes and now get all the positive attention. So I think I'm gonna say plus one, Cracker Bell, I think it ended up working out for him.

00:10:07
Speaker 7: Just send that one person to the mail room or fire them and act like I.

00:10:09
Speaker 5: Never had to, just keep acting like it didn't happen. All right, who's next, Brent, Brent? Go ahead, Brent, Brent, Brent. Okay, let's go to Rob.

00:10:21
Speaker 6: Rob. Go ahead, Rob? All right? Do you have these are these people? Do they exist? Shannon? Or are you just making enough names?

00:10:29
Speaker 4: I'm not making them up.

00:10:30
Speaker 6: Let's try Casey, Casey, go ahead, Casey.

00:10:34
Speaker 9: Hey fellows, good morning, good boarding.

Speaker 8: I had two quick.

00:10:39

00:11:29
Speaker 6: So I remember that. Yes, we were about to take pictures outside.

00:12:30
Speaker 2: Where'd you find your lady?

00:12:32
Speaker 5: I mean you're making a mockery of a question because there's nothing to Probably in recent years it's it's been like dating app. Yeah, probably because I don't go out right, Like I don't. I don't go out, So where am I gonna? You know, where am I going to meet somebody?

00:12:56
Speaker 6: I'm not on I'm not on Tender. I don't know. That's for kids, I think, I mean, I haven't we The.

00:13:01
Speaker 5: Only time I was on Tender was Withdrew in The Great Story of in Dallas when I when Tender thought I was a lesbian.

00:13:10
Speaker 6: Yeah so that's.

00:13:13
Speaker 2: Wait what somebody stuff?

00:13:14
Speaker 5: What Tender thought I was a lesbi? You know I've told this story before. We don't have to go over it again. Yeah, that story, it's for something. But it is true that we're both swiping its age on Facebook is wrong.

00:13:29
Speaker 6: We've talked about that before. But but Tender was like, oh, this must be a lesbian.

00:13:33
Speaker 2: Twenty nine year old lesbian.

00:13:35

00:14:10
Speaker 6: Well, thank you very much, and God bless you good luck on your your medical thing.

00:14:16
Speaker 8: I do have one more thing to say. Okay, you all were talking about Dairy Queen and the Blizzard Machine having to work as the owner of a sports bar. Shouldn't your TV's work too well?

00:14:30
Speaker 6: They generally do.

00:14:31
Speaker 5: But I mean if I only had one television and then it didn't work, that would be a problem. But we have thirty some TV so yeah, occasionally one goes down. But Dairy Queen has one Blizzard Machine, so no, I don't think it's the same as one TV goes down out of thirty as opposed to one Blizzard machine out of one goes down.

00:14:54
Speaker 8: I was just trying to make a joke. I hope you all have a great day.

00:14:56
Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, if our smoker goes down, appreciate that. Yeah, if the smoker goes down, that would be a little bit different. Tell me about Stocktor Morgan.

00:15:47
Speaker 4: Right, I believe it's yeah, I think of this though.

00:15:50
Speaker 5: Daddy never was a Cadillac cond But I think he's actually talking about his actual father here.

00:15:56
Speaker 6: He's not talking about his his boss at work.

00:16:00
Speaker 3: There's more like country songs that have daddy in it than I would think. Yeah, like what, Well, there's Daddy won't sell the farm by Montgomery Gentry.

00:16:10
Speaker 4: Okay, Daddy's come around.

00:16:13
Speaker 5: Yeah, Daddy's come that's I love that song. Daddy's come around to mama's way of thinking. There's the Baton Rouge, right, Colin Baton Rouge, Papa.

00:16:21
Speaker 6: Wasn't Mama and dad?

00:16:23
Speaker 7: About Johnny's daddy was taking fishing?

00:16:25
Speaker 6: There you go, Johnny's daddy was taking me Keith, who's your daddy? Oh that's right, Toby Keith, who's your daddy? That's a good call. Yeah, Country country likes that work.

00:16:36
Speaker 7: So when johnny'sdaddy took him fishing, was that his father or his boss?

00:16:41
Speaker 6: Not sure?

00:16:42
Speaker 5: A good question. Did you see the story about Babe Ruth in Tennessee? This is uh this is a great story and uh I have a strong feeling about it.

00:16:53
Speaker 6: There's a man in Tennessee. Whose name is is Babe Ruth?

00:16:56
Speaker 2: Really?

00:16:57
Speaker 6: Okay? Like that's his real name, is Babe Ruth.

00:17:00
Speaker 5: However, he went around claiming to be Babe Ruth, the Yankees player, and he defrauded allegedly one hundred and ninety people out of money by claiming to be Babe Ruth the Yankees player. And he's now been indicted for fraud for and has gone to prison for defrauding people out of money for being for saying he's Babe Ruth the Yankees player. I'm of the opinion that's on the people that got defrauded. Like, if you fall for Babe Ruth, who's been dead for seventy five years, then I.

00:17:38
Speaker 6: Think you're you deserve to lose your money. True. I think you are so insanely gullible that you need to have your money parted from you. Now.

00:17:49
Speaker 7: You don't want people to get uh, you know, ripped off or get caught up in fraud. But if it's so obvious, then you fall for it. We need to have like a level of that's that's your bad. How you answer the Saudi Prince in your DMS, send them your solid screen number.

00:18:02
Speaker 6: That's on you.

00:18:02
Speaker 5: They also said that he realized how easy it was, so sometimes he would claim to be other players, including Ty Cobb and Honus Wagner.

00:18:11
Speaker 4: People don't think they're still alive, I guess.

00:18:14
Speaker 5: But what is the scenario where you're giving Honus Wagner money? Like, how would that even happen?

00:18:20
Speaker 6: He's selling his autograph.

00:18:21
Speaker 2: They just played one hundred years ago in the twenties.

00:18:25
Speaker 5: Now, at least his name was Babe Ruth, so if he pulled that identification, you could be like, well, I guess Babe Ruth has aged.

00:18:32
Speaker 6: Pretty well right for one hundred and forty.

00:18:37
Speaker 5: But Ty Cobb and Honus Wagner too, But he finally got caught and he can now no longer do that.

00:18:42
Speaker 7: I actually respect. Is the odd asked you to try that?

00:18:45
Speaker 2: Then it worked?

00:18:46
Speaker 6: Yeah, you should go around and say you're John F. Kennedy junior.

00:18:49
Speaker 7: All right, I'll try that.

00:18:50
Speaker 6: That's more recent though.

00:18:51
Speaker 5: Maybe go uh, I don't know, Abe Lincoln, just say you're able link got the beard, you're from Kentucky.

00:18:58
Speaker 10: I bet you'd be able to get some top hate. Yeah, just just go with or ask for a donation. Wow, wow, is right?

00:19:08
Speaker 6: Who's next? Let's get it justin, justin, go ahead, justin, Thank god. I hope you're doing well.

00:19:15
Speaker 11: I heard about the discussion earlier on the Dairy Queen machines. I wanted to give a little tip. I've been using the apps for Dairy Queen and McDonald's. It'll tell you if it's available or unavailable. And the drive through where I placed the order through the app because it said it was available, and they have told the person in front of me, sorry, our machines down, and then I proceed to pull around and get my mcflurry or or blizzard whatever it is. So just a little, a little work around because I think they.

00:19:46
Speaker 6: Just don't like I can't deal with it sometimes. Yeah, I can understand that they can pull them off the line a little bit, makes sense.

00:19:53
Speaker 5: You know, we have that we have an al eight slushy machine here that does go down quite a bit. I think actually doesn't even like it would work for a day. But there was a time we caught one of our bartenders just didn't want to do it. No, we like it's down, but then it wasn't. That was a long time ago. But you do have to be careful.

00:20:09
Speaker 7: Oh late at night shift inding if you've already cleaned it, whether it's a grill, a Blizzard machine, whatever. If you're wanting to go home, you might tell somebody that things not working. I've already done that.

00:20:19
Speaker 6: Sure, Yes, you and I are almost always available on that aut appreciate the call.

00:20:24
Speaker 5: You and I Drew are at least scheduled as of now to do our first NFL show tomorrow.

00:20:31
Speaker 6: Are you feeling nervous at all?

00:20:35
Speaker 7: I mean a little bit, but I will say the feedback we got of our practice one and already getting one under our belts.

00:20:41
Speaker 6: The dress rehearsal help get me ready for it.

00:20:43
Speaker 7: I feel like it took us about fifteen twenty minutes in the practice to get to get a feel for it, which now made me much more prepared for the rule.

00:20:51
Speaker 5: The NFL sent us Ryan A. They sent us a revised cover art. Oh they did, Yeah, and I still look awful.

00:21:03
Speaker 4: Waited to see the updated Yeah, the upgrade.

00:21:06
Speaker 6: I showed it to Drew. Right, No, I haven't seen it.

00:21:09
Speaker 5: Yeah, text, well, all right, I'll send it during the break, But basically I still look terrible. They still didn't give me a knack. They still no, wait, I'm not sending it to you. All, what are you talking about? At first, I'm not sending it in the group text. I'll show it to them here.

00:21:25
Speaker 6: I'll show it to you when I see you, Shannon, Well, I won't see you for a while.

00:21:28
Speaker 5: So so so here's the thing. It wasn't very good, so I sent it. So I didn't want to be the guy that twice complained about how he looked on the thing. So I wrote him and said, listen, this is fine if you have to do it. It's still like it still doesn't look like me, and I think I didn't say you did this on chat GPT, but it looks like it was done on chat GPT. So I said, but if it's fine, if you want to put it out, and he was like, no, we want you to be happy with the first and we'll put out just another logo and then work on this in the in the thing, so all they did was basically take my forehead wrinkle out, and then you know they took a couple of the crows feet away from me and Drew and that.

00:22:14
Speaker 6: I don't know why I had to look seventy and that.

00:22:17
Speaker 2: We've got these great characters of you guys right behind us every day and these are these are fifteen years old and they're really good.

00:22:25
Speaker 5: Like I would think the technology has gotten better, but these are fifteen years old right here, and I think they still look very good.

00:22:32
Speaker 6: Don't you. Yeah.

00:22:33
Speaker 7: I've even seen some that that are AI. But the people posting on bond that bridge, and I'm like, wow, that looks really professional. And I assume they just ran it through AI. Why can't our friends at the at the league use the same technology.

00:22:44
Speaker 5: But I also am very careful because I don't want to seem like, I mean, we're brand new.

00:22:48
Speaker 6: I don't want to seem deva or or demand.

00:22:51
Speaker 4: They're gonna find out eventually you might as well.

00:22:55
Speaker 7: They can cancel this and keep moving on with their lives and not missing us.

00:22:59
Speaker 6: Right, Yeah, that's true.

00:22:59
Speaker 4: Who's next, quickly, Let's get brent on.

00:23:02
Speaker 6: Brent forty seconds go ahead.

00:23:05
Speaker 12: Hey Matt, good morning, Good morning.

00:23:08
Speaker 6: Quickly.

00:23:09
Speaker 12: So I wanted to talk to the disrespect that Kentucky is getting for this first game against Toledo. Everybody's picking Toledo to win that game in the upset Kentucky. And I know there's some skepticisms because of the you know, the debacle that last year was, and to be honest, I don't really believe a whole lot this year either. But if you don't think the coaches and the team haven't heard that and aren't going to come out and play with a chip on your shoulder, I mean that's crazy.

00:23:34
Speaker 6: I hope you're right. TJ.

00:23:35
Speaker 1: Smith, personal injury attorney, called TJ.

00:23:38
Speaker 4: He'll make them pay.

00:23:39
Speaker 3: Now more of Kentucky Sports Radio presented by Stockton Mortgage.

00:23:43
Speaker 4: Here's Matt Jones.

00:23:44
Speaker 6: I genuinely like this song, Channon. It's Paul over Street, right, Yep.

00:23:48
Speaker 4: It's a lot of Daddy in here though it is.

00:23:50
Speaker 5: But I've always liked it. He's an underrated artist. Actually, I just showed you the new picture. Not a fan, right, I.

00:23:58
Speaker 7: See the problem. It looks like you need some definition. Like they just use one color throughout your whole neck, face and forehead and you can't really tell.

00:24:08
Speaker 6: Purple that one is a little better. But you need some some features.

00:24:11
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's not very good, all right, I said on yesterday Matt Sack, who's a Kentucky fan site guy, he wrote out he was or no. Justin Rowland asked who the Kentucky football Mount Rushmore was. Who were like the four if you were to create the Kentucky football Mount Rushmore, who would it be? And he he had suggestions, and so here were mine. I feel like three of them. I feel like my first three. I don't think you can really dispute. And then I think the fourth one you can go a lot of different directions depending on what you think matters.

00:24:51
Speaker 6: So to me, like Art still is like is definite.

00:24:55
Speaker 5: Art still has to be on there all American great defensive play. Then Tim Couch, I think has to be on their best quarterback, number one overall pick et, cetera.

00:25:06
Speaker 6: And then uh uh, Josh Allen for me, has to be on there.

00:25:12
Speaker 5: I think Josh Allen is the best modern player that Kentucky has has had.

00:25:19
Speaker 6: But then I think off. Then I think after that you decide, Okay, do I.

00:25:23
Speaker 5: Want like a George Blanda. Do I want Benny Snell who has the rushing title. Do I want Randall Cobb who could do everything for a few years? GERMANI Dawson who was has an amazing legendary pro career, good at Kentucky but not like Mount Rushmore, but maybe the best pro of all time. I think I had one more on my list of potentials. Is there anybody else that you could see? And then do you disagree with any of my major threes?

00:25:55
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm winning DERMANI do you know, maybe his.

00:25:58
Speaker 6: UK career mar He's only second team All SEC.

00:26:01
Speaker 2: Uh, But what he did post Kentucky, when one of the greatest Sinners ever played the game, I think that that earns him the right to be on our Mount Rushmore.

00:26:09
Speaker 5: But usually when we do UK basketball, we don't take account pro their pro career.

00:26:12
Speaker 7: Yep, even changed positions in the NFL really mostly guard here and then became one of the best centers ever in Pittsburgh.

00:26:18
Speaker 6: So what it was? So who would be yours? Well?

00:26:21
Speaker 2: My first three I thought of immediately. I was couch, Art, Steel and DERMANI that fourth one, Josh Josh Allen's a great example of somebody that could probably do it. But you go back to Dave Babe Perilli and George Blanding, those guys they won the mythical national championship. We're gonna ignore those guys.

00:26:37
Speaker 6: I give I mean, and this is my bias, and I'm fine with it. I'll accept it.

00:26:42
Speaker 5: I give less for things like Mount Rushmore when you played when it was segregated. I mean, I just I think it's a it's just a different time in sports. If I'm saying who the who the the best of the best are, that's just that's just me.

00:26:57
Speaker 7: I'm with you that there's three that I mean it's Mount Rushmore, or go ahead and put him in stone, put him up there. It's art still. Josh Allen, Tim Couch, I think that should be on just about everybody's list.

00:27:06
Speaker 2: Fourth.

00:27:07
Speaker 7: You can go a lot of directions. I'm actually gonna say someone you didn't name. It's more personality. I'm gonna say Jared because a lot of people when you think of Kentucky football, if you're not from around here, you don't fall it closely. That is one of the first players you think of. So it's more of obviously the personality and the style than what he actually accomplished. But I would put Jared as a fourth. You wouldn't put Josh Allen on yours.

00:27:28
Speaker 5: I mean, he's all time sack leader if you're talking about pro if you're talking about pro stuff, I mean, he's got He's probably been Kentucky's best pro in the modern era.

00:27:39
Speaker 2: Yeah, we talked the other day that the three best defensive players have probably been Josh Allen, Dennis Johnson, and Art Still. So you pick one of those three, pick two of those three. I don't know.

00:27:49
Speaker 5: It's hard for me to pick an offensive lineman just because like who knows. I mean, like it's hard, Like what's the name of the guy that was All America? Was it Faine or something? Or isn't there who's the guy back in the seventh what Bob Gain? Yeah, I mean I don't know, right, like he was an All American. I can't say he was better or worse than pick the offensive lineman on the big Blue Wall, because I don't really know how to compare that.

00:28:20
Speaker 2: Is dermontiviol the only Kentucky graduate to be in the NFL Hall of Fame.

00:28:26
Speaker 6: He is, and I'm not dismissing that at all. He's great.

00:28:30
Speaker 5: It's also the case though, that like that Steelers team, they put everybody in the Hall of Fame off that Steelers team.

00:28:37
Speaker 6: I think they got like ten people in the Hall of Fame.

00:28:40
Speaker 5: That was kind of during the time, sort of like at UK basketball when we put all those people in the fifty all Cum's friends, as you said, in the Hall of Fame. They've kind of done that with that Steelers team.

00:28:53
Speaker 7: Over the years, and that's all still what he did in the pros. I'm trying to do Uk Mount Rushmore. I think Josh Allen, if you look at his accolte, he won every possible award you could win. He was unanimous All American, every defensive trophy you can win, SEC Defensive Player of the Year. I think he might be the number one lock of any of them.

00:29:10
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm amazed how considering how recent he is, how much pushback I got on social media for Josh Allen.

00:29:17
Speaker 6: I don't even think Josh Allen is kind of a debate.

00:29:21
Speaker 5: I mean, if you were to say to me, I bet you if Mark Stoops was sitting here and I said, Mark, who's the best player you've had, wouldn't he say Josh Allen?

00:29:29
Speaker 6: And I don't think that. He almost certainly would say Josh Allen. Maybe Lynn Bowden because of just the unique what he did here.

00:29:36
Speaker 5: Maybe, but I think you would say Josh Allen. And I think, you know, we've never had a Heisman winner, but we've had one National Defensive Player of the Year winner and it's him, So how could you not put him on it, right, and then Tim Couch was second in the.

00:29:54
Speaker 6: High Cosmon conversation.

00:29:55
Speaker 5: I mean those two guys, and then Art still obviously has all those accolades and also was.

00:30:00
Speaker 6: So for me, those three kind of stick out.

00:30:03
Speaker 2: And I think there might be some people that may try to argue, maybe Bear Bryant, maybe put a coach up there.

00:30:09
Speaker 6: Well, if I include coaches, then he's certainly up there. I don't.

00:30:13
Speaker 5: I don't include coaches necessarily, but if I did, I think he would definitely be the fourth.

00:30:18
Speaker 2: So who would you bump off if you include him?

00:30:20
Speaker 5: Well, I don't have a definitive fourth one, because I you know, I can even I can be talked in.

00:30:28
Speaker 6: I could be talked into Randall Cobb. I might go Cob next.

00:30:32
Speaker 7: I think Benny's hurt by Chris Rodriguez coming right behind him and have an identical stretch.

00:30:37
Speaker 5: And he's also probably hurt by the fact that we had the greatest offensive line in our history during that That was part of it. Yeah, I mean, what's the case for Benny Snell but not Chris Rodriguez?

00:30:49
Speaker 6: Is there one? I mean, Chris Rodriguez broke off his records.

00:30:52
Speaker 2: And then Ray Davis broke that touchdown record.

00:30:54
Speaker 5: So yeah, I don't know, but I feel very good about my three three. He should be on everybody's Who's up next?

00:31:02
Speaker 4: Jim, Jim, go ahead, Jim.

00:31:05
Speaker 13: Hey, guys, I don't know if you've addressed it yet, but the announced team for our game against Toledo on the SEC network as Taylor Zarza and Matt Stink. Matt Stinchcombe was one of my favorite duos.

00:31:19
Speaker 6: Yes, we've had them a bunch of hard years. I think they do a really good job actually, and Alyssa Lane.

00:31:26
Speaker 13: Yeah, and as far as Bob Gain, he was the first Outland Trophy winner in the SEC, so you have to have consideration. And yeah, I like your other three picks though very well.

00:31:40
Speaker 6: Appreciate it all right, Then I would throw him in there too.

00:31:42
Speaker 5: I mean, if we're going to put Dermani in, then I think we probably would have to put Bob Gain because even though I don't know a lot about him, in terms of accolades, he has to be towards the top.

00:31:52
Speaker 2: Right. His accolades at Kentucky were actually better than Dermani's acolades just at Kentucky.

00:31:57
Speaker 5: Just just if you're just looking at Kentucky You're You're exactly right. Corn Bred Hemp one of our major sponsors. Here at KSR corn Bread Hemp, full spectrum, flower only Hemp CBDs.

00:32:48
Speaker 2: No?

00:32:48
Speaker 7: But okay, well sure can we We can ask When I was younger, I guess when I'm listening to my nineties country as a kid, some.

00:32:54
Speaker 6: Reason, I always think of this with you. I think of this and uh excu.

00:32:58
Speaker 7: Alibus when I used to get naked too, That's probably the one you were thinking.

00:33:01
Speaker 6: Of, Yeah, that wasn't That wasn't exactly what I thought of when I thought of you on it.

00:33:05
Speaker 7: And the people that don't know that story now are wondering what it is. Letave it at that.

00:33:09
Speaker 6: And then there was the one that, uh uh, wow, what's its name? You hated it?

00:33:14
Speaker 5: And then you Billy the kid, Billy the kid, that's really kid. I had some other suggestions here for that fourth spot. Sonny Collins, Goodwin, good choice, Derrick Ramsey.

00:33:27
Speaker 2: Him and Arch Steele were the best of that time period.

00:33:30
Speaker 5: Multiple picks for Max Stuffy. I. You know, if you're just talking about who I like, I would pick Mac Stuffy. You can't pick a punter though, like they don't they don't do enough things. But if you're just talking about people who won National Player of the Year at their position, we have two, we have three, Bob Gain, Josh Allen and Max Stuffie.

00:33:47
Speaker 6: Wow.

00:33:48
Speaker 2: I do like our four of Arch Steel from the seventies, Jmani from the eighties, Tim Couch from the nineties, and Josh Allen then from the two thousands. I kind of liked that we spread it out like that. Those four, uh, I think are best picks.

00:33:59
Speaker 7: It really just shows how pack the tradition is over there that you can't think of four players to put up there, just so many of the shoes from.

00:34:04
Speaker 5: Well, it's interesting because it it's it's almost not balanced in the sense of like you know, it's it's you got this top little group and then there's like a bunch of people. You know, we didn't even mention Lynn Bowden, and I mean you mentioned that Stupis likes him, but I mean you there's a case considering all the things he did that like, it's it's a lot. And we didn't mention Andre Woodson, another guy who was very very good, great season.

00:34:30
Speaker 2: Coach Brooks could probably even get a little conversation in there. And we're gonna go who is your top your mount rushmore guys? You like you said Max's.

00:34:39
Speaker 5: Well, okay, so you're talking about my just favorite four people that played at Kentucky football. Max is certainly probably number one, Jared, Max and Jared are one or one one.

00:34:52
Speaker 6: A uh.

00:34:55
Speaker 2: I take those two and Dante and Dane.

00:34:58
Speaker 6: Okay, well you I'll take you no way. Freddy?

00:35:01
Speaker 5: All right, So yeah, we're so we're going Max, Jared, Freddy and then give me one more. I take Max, Jared and Freddy. You talk about going out and having fun. That's a good Max, Jared and Freddy would be a go out and have just about the most amount of fun you could have. I mean, that would be pretty good. And then I really like Benny Snaell a lot. I mean when he was here, he had a great personality.

00:35:27
Speaker 2: Cash has done a lot of stuff with us.

00:35:29
Speaker 6: He has.

00:35:29
Speaker 7: Yeah, I thought Tim Couch was God for a few years ago, So I'd go Tim Couch, Max, Freddie, jareded You're going Tim Couch one man. Well, I didn't, and that was no particular order. I'm just saying that's my four. But when they were air raiding and I was a kid, I didn't think there was a better athlete on the planet.

00:35:47
Speaker 2: So I gotta go Freddy Jared, Max Dante.

00:35:50
Speaker 6: Okay, I I think I'll go Freddy Jared, Max Hm. I don't know that other one's kind of tough. I'm trying to think who who?

00:36:01
Speaker 2: I think who've done the show with us?

00:36:03
Speaker 5: I mean, if you just talk leave aside personality and who was the most fun. I've never had more fun watching a person than watching Lyn Bowden, because you just didn't know what he.

00:36:12
Speaker 6: Was gonna do.

00:36:12
Speaker 5: I mean, in any given moment, something crazy could happen. And I love that you pick Vince. Yeah, if we canna pick coaches, he would certainly. But he's on Louisville. If I my Mount Rushmore, I cut his head off when it goes to Louisville.

00:36:27
Speaker 6: If he's up there on the mountain, we're bringing him down. I don't know how we do that, but we'll figure it out. We will. Who's next, Jeff, Jeff, go ahead, Jeff.

00:36:36
Speaker 8: Man, I ain't gonna wow.

00:36:37
Speaker 6: I did laugh out. Yeah, well, you were the one.

00:36:43
Speaker 8: The reason I was calling.

00:36:44
Speaker 13: I want to talk about the Paul pick a ball sha and picking his own.

00:36:52
Speaker 5: Oh wait a minute, did you pick? You made sure to pick somebody who're gonna beat Shannon.

00:36:55
Speaker 4: Of course, it's like Kentucky football.

00:36:57
Speaker 3: You gotta play some Eastern Michigans before you.

00:36:59
Speaker 4: Play in Georgia, right, I mean that's what that's what I'm doing. Oh okay, I pick somebody could beat me.

00:37:04
Speaker 6: Interesting. I didn't know you were doing that.

00:37:09
Speaker 2: All right ahead of that.

00:37:12
Speaker 5: I appreciate the call. All right, So between you two that you're playing today, who's better?

00:37:16
Speaker 7: Like I mean, if we're being serious, Shannon has played right. Yeah, I even know how to play before.

00:37:23
Speaker 6: But you were a tennis player.

00:37:25
Speaker 7: Well, my career record zero zero because I broke my ankle on the day of my first match.

00:37:29
Speaker 6: Oh okay, Well, then I did the whole preseason.

00:37:31
Speaker 7: I earned spot number two for Madisonville and then shattered Minkle playing basketball on lunch break.

00:37:36
Speaker 2: Okay.

00:37:37
Speaker 7: I mean, if we're setting odds, I like talking trash and I'm gonna leave it all on the field. But if we're setting odds, Shannon's a favorite. I mean, I don't even I don't even know if he's in a racket a paddle. I don't even know what I'm hitting to prol Okay, I'm new to it, but he'll lose.

00:37:50
Speaker 6: By the way. Uh, the sprint has changed a lot.

00:37:53
Speaker 5: On the Toledo Kentucky game, it was seven and it's now up to nine and a half and in one book ten and a half, so a lot of money. One sort of big time gambler said he wondered if Toledo would even score a touchdown, said that their offense is not that he doesn't understand where all the love's coming from, because they don't have an offense.

00:38:15
Speaker 6: What do you think about that?

00:38:15
Speaker 7: When the moment it got to seven and a half, I bet it at nine and a half for plus money, and I'm not done with it, but I'm gonna bet it at thirteen and a half, probably seventeen ish all the way up to twenty. I'll probably stop at nineteen and a half, but I'm gonna have like staggered lines for odds because I am as it gets closer. And I'm even one of the ones that said don't sleep on this team. I'm thinking they're gonna be all right, and probably more than all right.

00:38:36
Speaker 6: I think it could be a whooping.

00:38:38
Speaker 2: I think it was all the talk we had about the Toledo Heisman Trophy for it.

00:38:41
Speaker 5: But seriously, are you I mean, do you think they're going to this sort of late move that they're not gonna be able to score?

00:38:49
Speaker 6: Do you think that's that there's anything to that?

00:38:52
Speaker 2: I think that a Kentucky's defense will shut them down quite a bit. That's the Kentucky strength of this team is their defense. They'll be able to shut down SEC. So yeah, I definitely think they'll shut down a Toledo team.

00:39:03
Speaker 6: And we said earlier.

00:39:03
Speaker 7: The difference is the offensive line in these games. If Kentucky's offensive line is what we wanted to be, and you know, bush shit, it's going back to old school. They should push Toledo around. If they don't, I think we have longer term problems than Week one.

00:39:17
Speaker 5: It is funny to me how nothing can happen and vibes change so immensely.

00:39:25
Speaker 6: You know, there's no news, nothing has occurred.

00:39:29
Speaker 5: The line was at thirteen and a half, it went to seven and a half based on nothing, and now it's up to nine and a half or ten and a half based on nothing. Like people's vibes can just change that much and there's no news for either team of substance. I think it went to seven and a half because it was a very popular. All these podcasts are doing their predictions, and if you look at Week one, it really is. If you're just looking at names and logos, it would be one you'd pick as an upset a MAC favorite playing a Kentucky team that's won four games.

00:39:59
Speaker 6: A year ago. Well you don't even have to know the rosters.

00:40:01
Speaker 7: That's people are picking that as an upset one, and I think that changed the numbers a little bit.

00:40:05
Speaker 6: Who's next, Let's go to Mike, Mike, go ahead, Mike, Hey.

00:40:11
Speaker 14: Matt getting back to Dairy Queen to go to or the one and there's two that I know of in Kentucky. It's a walk up window. They don't serve all the food. There's one in Murray. They serve chili dogs. Yes, but yeah, you just walk up to the window. And it's seasonal. So it opens in March, closes at the end of October. And uh, you know, being frum down there, it's all over at a big event. It's all everyone talks about on your Facebook feeds. But yeah, if you ever get down to one of them, Kroger's the other, or Dairy Queen the other one in Cunnington, I.

00:40:46
Speaker 6: Would like a walk up one. And then the one in Flemingsburg. We've been to that. That's the one that is always very very good.

00:40:53
Speaker 2: They had home style breakfast. Then we're up there. Apparently the one of Paintsfield gets We've got to give them some love over the years too.

00:40:59
