• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Hello, Big Blue Nation. Welcome to Just the Cats. My
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: name is Michael Bennett on this Monday, October 26th. Hope
• 0:19
  Speaker 2: everybody had a great weekend, as I very much had
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: a great weekend. I can tell you that right now,
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: but it's been a little difficult in my house. It's
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: been great with me, but I've got a couple of
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: people in my house that aren't too terribly happy with me.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: But just what I tell them is get in line.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: So anyway, but Justin Kalen, good to have you. Good
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: to have you scare me this morning again. I think
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: this is two days in a row. That you've attempted to,
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: you know, make me a little uncomfortable in spooky season?
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Wait, what? Well, I mean, remember I- I didn't try
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: to scare you this morning. Oh, you didn't? Okay, well,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: you opened the door, which was very nice.
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: Wow, me being a nice guy is being confused for
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: me trying to scare you?
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Well, didn't you try to scare me last week? I
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: think it was Friday. I did on Friday. Nerds don't
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: try about it. I did. Okay. You jumped. Yeah, you did.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: I did jump. And then today you- Okay, you surprised
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: me today. How's that? There you go. I'll take that.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Maybe that scare is a little strong word. I was
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: just opening the door for you. Yeah. I wasn't trying
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: to scare you.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: Well, it's funny because you look at the combination now
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: because we have to put a little combination when we
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: come in the front door of the studio. And it's
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: hard to really read the numbers anymore.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, it's so dark. Yeah.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: Not just that, but even in the daytime, everything's kind
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: of– people can see where fingers have been. It's like, well,
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: why are we doing this then if people can just
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: figure it out which numbers they need to pick?
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: I think it's kind of like it's not just the
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: numbers now. It's meshed with the numbers that were before.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: Really? So if you just look at those like eight
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: numbers or whatever, they're all.
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I don't think anybody. Well, I don't.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Well, I don't get it, though. I mean, the last
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: station I worked at, you had to have a little.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: passcode to get in the front door. Here you got
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: to get... Why do we have to have all these
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: passcodes just to get into a radio?
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: You just want people to be able to walk in
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: all willy-nilly? Absolutely. Why not? Welcome in and have them
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: come on the air with you when somebody comes over
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: and says hello. I mean, I would.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: We've had Jamie here, Officer Jamie over here, and he
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: comes in here and he will come on the radio
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: with us, but he just makes himself at home.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: I like that. Yeah, but I don't think... I like that.
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: I don't think he would come into the building with
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: the intention of wanting to take things.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Oh, you think there would be people that would want
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: to come in and take... Absolutely. What are they going
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: to take here? What is here to take? Everything. Really? Oh, yeah. Okay.
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: What am I hearing? I don't know. What are you hearing?
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: I hear nothing.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: I think it's a car alarm, but it sounds like
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: the battery's dying. It's like a sad car alarm.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: I don't hear it. Okay, my hearing's going bad. Okay, good.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: All right, then. Well....
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: I'd like to know what happened Friday night. You know,
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: you gave me a little bit because you had to
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: do a game Friday night. Do you want to share
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: what happened? Because it sounds like a lot of excitement
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: at a football game.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: I mean, I.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: detailed it on my show oh you did okay i
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: don't really know what else to say other than is
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: just as a game that got really ugly i mean
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: yeah fans lost their patience players lost their patience the
• 3:18
  Speaker 3: officials what it comes down to for me is the
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: officials lost control of the game yes that that's what
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: it that's what had happened.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: All right so because was it a bad play what
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: started it all.
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: Just i Things just got a little contentious on the field.
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: I mean, you had a late hit after a certain play.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: And from that point forward, it just fell apart. They
• 3:39
  Speaker 3: never felt like they had control of the game.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: I mean, you had a fan come onto the field.
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: You had a coach kicked out. You had several players
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: kicked out.
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: It was.
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: It was the ugly side of sports that you never
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: want to be involved with. So when I was leaving
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: there on Friday night, I kind of felt gross.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: Even though I didn't have anything to do with it,
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: I felt gross that that was the way the game ended.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: Because it was a very entertaining game up until about
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: midway through the third quarter.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Right, right. I had a little incident at Keeneland. Oh,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: did you? I did. Let's hear it. And I'll tell
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: you right now.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: So Saturday, so Friday we went to, we had some
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: great friends of ours that drove up from Nashville, Tennessee
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: to spend the weekend in Lexington with us. So we decided, okay,
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: we'll stay in Lexington as well. Take in everything. Went
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: out to, went to a great restaurant Friday and Saturday night.
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: Now I didn't get to, I got takeout. I didn't
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: get to eat at the restaurant Saturday night, but Friday night,
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: unbelievable restaurant. Saturday, casually get up. I get to sleep in.
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: And we went to Keeneland. Of course, you know, you
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: got to wear your little coat and tie because Keeneland
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: requires you to wear a coat and tie.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: But I get there. I'm walking in. The security guy goes,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: open your coat. And I'm not kidding. No, please. No, sir.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: It's just open your coat. And I said, okay, there
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: you go. take that out of your pocket. And I
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: took the glasses out of my, take those out too.
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, there's nothing. Oh my gosh, man. I said,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: I said, can you say please? I did.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: That's all I said. Can you say please? He didn't
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: like that. He said, take that out of your pocket.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: I said, Oh, I forgot. I had these others, my
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: sunglasses in there. I took them out. And he says, sir,
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: you need to back up. And I'm like, I don't
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: know what you want me to do. I took the
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: other glasses out. He goes, you need to get out
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: of my face. And I'm like, you know what? I
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: need to know what your name is. And he says,
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: stop pushing me. Stop pushing me. And, I mean, he
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: starts backing up.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I've lost control. I didn't touch him. I
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: didn't do anything.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: I started laughing. And I'm in total shock. I mean,
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: he literally starts yelling, stop pushing me. The lady that
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: takes your tickets or watches you as you're putting the
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: phone app with your ticket on it comes over and says,
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: are you okay?
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: To you or him? To me.
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: And I said, honestly, I'm confused. And she looks at me.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: She says, you did nothing wrong. And I said, well,
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: I tell you right now, I want that guy's name.
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: I said, I've never been treated like that before in
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: my life. And so finally she goes, well, she goes
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: and gets his boss. And he says, what happened? I said, well,
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: he's really aggressive. And the lady right there next to
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: me that worked for Keeneland, she goes, he was unusually aggressive.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: And he's like, well, let me get somebody else.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Hold on.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Can you stay right here? And I said, I'll be
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: glad to. And at this point, I'm kind of shaken.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: I'm a little shaken up as to what just transpired
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: in front of me. Because I was just trying to
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: joke with the guy. He didn't think it was funny.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: And all of a sudden, he starts yelling, stop pushing me.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, I'm trying to think, is the guy
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: on drugs?
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: What's the deal?
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: And so he goes to my buddy that's with us
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: and he's like, you got to take that out of
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: your pocket and starts being aggressive with him. And, of course,
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: Michael's like, okay, I'll take him out. There you go.
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: And just as calm as he can be. Well, finally,
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: the head of security for Keeneland comes over and says, sir,
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: can we walk over here? And I'm like, sure, I'll
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: be glad to. He goes, can you tell me what
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: all happened? And the lady from Keeneland walked over there, too,
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: and said he did nothing wrong. And I'm like, I
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: don't think I did anything wrong. Now my mind's going,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: did I do something wrong? I mean, I was trying
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: to cut up with him. And I mean, so finally
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: the guy says, would you like him fired?
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: What?
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. You get that choice. Oh, exactly. That's what
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: I thought. That's a lot of power to put on
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: your head. Exactly. I said, oh, my gosh.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: Well, he was pretty aggressive. I don't appreciate what he
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: just did to me because he made me extremely uncomfortable.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: He goes, well, we got a long camera and we're
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: going to go back and watch it. May I have
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: your phone number in case I need to call you back?
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: I said, absolutely. You can have my phone number.
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: And the other security guy says, well, we know you
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: did nothing wrong because the lady came up and said
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: you did absolutely nothing wrong.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: And he goes, Mr. Bennett, would you like him fired?
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: I said, first of all, don't call me Mr. Bennett.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: You call me Michael. And he goes, Mr. Bennett. I said, stop.
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: He goes, sir, I was just brought up. I said,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: I get it. So was I. But he looked at
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: me and says, would you like him fired? To which
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: you said? And I said, absolutely not. I don't want
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: anyone losing their job today.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: Well, also, you shouldn't be put in a position where
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: you have to make that decision.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Fair enough.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: Especially if he's already told you that they heard what
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: happened and they're going to go back and watch the footage.
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: Yes. That's a them decision. That shouldn't be a you decision.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: I didn't think about that, but that's a great point
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: right there because that dude could have come back. I mean,
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: you got me fired. It's like, no, I didn't. You
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: got yourself fired. But I said, no, I don't want
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: him fired, but here's what I want. He needs some
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: more training with people. I mean, that's, he's got to
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: learn how to be around people because he was pretty aggressive.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: And then he starts yelling at me that I'm pushing him.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: And I wasn't even close to it. It literally made
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: me laugh. I thought he was kind of cutting up
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: and it's like, no, he's not cutting up. And I thought, man,
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: the dude's on drugs. That's the first thought I had
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: right there. And it was, it was a situation I
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: have never been through before in my life. And honest
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: to goodness, I hope I never get in that situation again,
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: but man, Keeneland, I tell you what, uh, you're something
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: else with some people out there.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: That's unfortunate.
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: First of all, you make me wear a tie and
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: a coat and all that stuff, and then you got
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: this going on. It's like, wow, man. So anyway, they
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: were very apologetic. They said, we hope you have a
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: nice day.
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: I don't want to really take this side of things,
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: but I feel like I have to hear.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: Okay. We truly never know what somebody else is going through. Absolutely.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: I mean, who knows what maybe transpired at his house
• 10:13
  Speaker 3: that morning.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Yes. And he was taking it out on me. That's
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: for certain. And you shouldn't do that.
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: I mean, no matter what you got going on in
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: your life, you should still treat everybody with kindness.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: And that's exactly why I said, I don't want him
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: to dismiss. And they, they did.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: They asked me three times, would you like him fired?
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, no, that's not what I want. That
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: is not what I want to happen to that poor guy.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: And I, I just, I just want him to be
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: a little nicer to people.
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: That's all I want.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: And, uh, but they, uh, yeah, they, uh, that was
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: something else. I mean, I have literally never been through
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: a situation like that, but, uh, anyway.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: They, they were very nice. They apologize. We hope you
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: have a nice day. And I said, I'm going to
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: try my best, but Man, that shook me up. I'll
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: tell you that, right? Because I'm not, you know, we
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: were just talking last week. You and I are not fighters.
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: No.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: In the least bit.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: And we're not antagonizers or anything like that. You and
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: I are lovers, not fighters. So, but here that happens.
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: I could see you being an antagonizer in a sarcastic way.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: Yes, that would be very true.
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: But I mean, especially if the person across from me
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: doesn't know you, then maybe they would be offended by it.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: More times than not, I would say. Well, I mean, anyway,
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: everything turned out fine. We had a great day. I
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: get a phone call from our good friend, Nick Roush.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Michael, where are you?
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: Of course, you know, I've gotten them tickets into Keeneland.
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: And now he wants to go into the paddock. And
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: it's like, okay, whatever you need, Mr.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: Roush. Because, you know, when you.
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: Go, it's just kind of like Corey Price, Mr. Corey
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: P on TV. They get on Paul Feinbaum now and you're,
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: you're big time in us. So I got, I got, uh,
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: he and Steven peek in there and we had a
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: good time and I introduced him to one of the
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: premier bloodstock agents in the country, if not the world,
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: David and Gordo. And, uh, Steven's like, who is he?
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: And then I said, that's Sheree DeVoe's husband right there.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: Oh, okay. Who's Sheree? And I'm like, oh, my gosh,
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: you're killing me. Rouse is probably eating it up. Oh, yeah.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: Peek's just so confused.
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: They're having a 20-minute conversation talking about things. And, of course,
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: David's enjoying it because, you know, he knows who Nick
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: Rouse is. And Steven's like, well, what am I doing
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: in here? Why are we in here? Is it time
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: for football?
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Well, I know.
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: I love Steven. The more I'm around Steven, the more
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: I really like being around him. But it was funny
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: because he was so far over his head.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: It's not even funny.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: Had no idea what was going on. And I said, okay, guys,
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: just follow me. Here's what we're going to do. We're
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: going to go from the paddock. We're going to go
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: out to the track and watch the race from there. And, yeah,
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: Roush loved it. Steven, I don't know if he enjoyed
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: it or not, but I hope he did. So I
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: did the best I could. I'm sure he did. Then
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: I ran into the game, and, of course, we'll get
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: into the game in a minute, but Steven runs over
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: to me and says, it's happening just exactly how I
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: thought it would happen.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: It's like, oh, man. Oh, he was mad. Oh, he
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: was mad. He was mad.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: He was legitimately mad about that game the way the
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: first quarter was going. And I wasn't yet. I was pacing,
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: I will say. I had to go back, and then
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: what happens? I run into Alan Cutler.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Oh, boy. Oh, it was just the two of us
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: back there.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: And I will say, had a very nice conversation with Alan.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: Wow. And he could not have been, he said, Michael,
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: I'm so sorry.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: It's the first time he's been to me to talk about,
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: you know, because we had that, what, 10-day show on
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: this station?
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: It wasn't 10. Okay, was it five days? I don't
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: think it was even five. Okay, well, he goes, I'm
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: sorry that happened. That was my fault. Wow. Exactly. That's huge.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: That's exactly what I said. And I said, Alan, I
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: really appreciate that. I said, I really was enjoying it.
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: And he goes, it's not you. And he starts complimenting me,
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: just saying, you do a very good job. You're great
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: on the radio.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, oh, wow. So when's he coming on? Wow.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: Let's not get too far ahead of ourselves, okay? But no,
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: it was a very nice conversation with Al. So what
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: a crazy day. I was about to get arrested by
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: a security guy at Keeneland to Alan Cutler apologizing me.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, what's going on in the world today, okay?
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: But it was a great weekend. And, of course, yesterday
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: we had Churchill Downs. We'll talk a little more about
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: that later in the show, but it was something else.
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: But if you want to join us, 502-384-1450. If you
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: want to call in, 502-414-1450. You want to text in
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: on the Whiskey Thief text line, or you can tweet
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: me at justacatrayo. So I do want to talk about
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: a better part of football this hour, okay? We'll talk
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: about some basketball, and I got a few other things
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: I want to talk about second hour, but we'll save
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: for that for then. But right now, We got to
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: talk about the number eight or ninth, whichever one you
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: want to look at, because Justin's already corrected me this morning.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: I mean, nine.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: But listen, either way, I don't care. Either way, I
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: never dreamed in my wildest dreams that any season, Kentucky
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: would be going into November ranked in the top 10
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: in my life. You laugh and you got every right
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: to laugh at me.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: You're exactly right. I laugh because I can relate. Yeah, exactly.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: And see, I know you can. And that makes all
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: the difference in the world. But this is so much fun.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: I got to tell you, this is and it's not
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: that I'm more of a football because Oscar claims, Michael,
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: you're more of a football fan. You got to be careful.
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: It's It's like, no, I'm not. I love UK football
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: as much as I love UK basketball. And I root
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: for both teams equally. Now, I know there are those
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: fans out there that they're only football and they're only basketball.
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: And I wish we could come together and just celebrate
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: what a great and special season we're having so far.
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: I mean, I.
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: Of course, we should have won that game Friday, Saturday night. But,
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: you know, you never know what's going to happen. I mean,
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: look what happened to Tennessee. Look what happened to BYU.
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: Look what's happening around the country with all these. There's
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: so much parody in sports today. To me, it's making
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: a lot of fun, Justin.
• 16:23
  Speaker 6: Oh, yeah.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: No, no, no doubt.
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: I mean, there's no other way to spin it. It
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: does make it a lot of fun. And I had
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: a text turned to my show that said, College football playoff,
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: thinking about that this year, just seems like a lot
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: of fun because there's not like one team that stands
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: above the rest. There's a pack of, I don't know, 10,
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: 15 teams that are right there with each other.
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: Well, see, I still look at Ohio State and Georgia
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: as probably the leaders in the country. I would, too,
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: if Georgia didn't lose to Auburn. I hear you. But
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: some nights, you just have one of those nights. And
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: I think they did.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: So, I still look.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: At Georgia as one of the toughest teams in the
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: country and Ohio State. I'm going to put Indiana up there,
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: but I think it's those three teams, and for the
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: life of me, somebody's got to explain to me Notre Dame.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: I don't get the love and attention that they get
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: year in, year out. I'm not going to delve into
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: that today. It upsets me too much because I just
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: think strength of schedule means something, and clearly to a
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: lot of the national media, it means absolutely zero because
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: that's what you look at. When you see Notre Dame,
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: I just, I hope to goodness that I think they
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: play what SMU and Miami that's coming up. So hopefully
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: if they lose both, which I don't foresee them losing
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: to SMU, I do see Notre Dame losing to Miami.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Cause I believe that game's down in South Florida, isn't it?
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: I think so.
• 17:56
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 17:56
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: So hopefully that happens. But anyway, we got to take
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: our first break.
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: 502-414-1450.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: You want to text in or 502-384-1450. You want to
• 18:06
  Speaker 2: call in either way. I want to hear from you
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: today about the number ninth, number eight team in the country,
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: your university, Kentucky football program. We'll be right back. This
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: is just a guess.
• 18:19
  Speaker 7: He went and dug for Harlan Cole And sent the
• 18:24
  Speaker 7: money back to Granny But he never left Harlan Love
• 18:32
  Speaker 7: Where the sun comes up.
• 18:35
  Speaker 8: Well, let's all go Down to Doomas Walker.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: Let's all go down to Doomer's Walker.
• 18:57
  Speaker 8: We'll get a slaw burger prize and a bottle of ski.
• 19:00
  Speaker 8: Bring it on.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: Is that the only song that they ever had right there?
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: I don't know. The Kentucky Headhunters? I don't know. I
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: like them. I love Thomas Walker. Yeah, I do too. And,
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: you know, I think our buddy J.D. Shelburne did a
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: song with them. Oh, did he? Yeah, either a song
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: or a concert. I don't remember what it was. He was.
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: On social media talking about them not too terribly long ago.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: Let's get to the Whiskey Thief text line, 502-414-1450. Justin
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: as well said, for Michael Bennett, it's not so much
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: that Kentucky is eight. I'm okay with that if the
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: seven teams ahead of them are actually better. I don't
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: feel like BYU or Notre Dame are better. That's my
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: only argument. All right, let's talk about that. Number one's Miami.
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: Don't have an issue with that. Number two, Ohio State.
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: Don't have an issue with that. Georgia is number three.
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: I don't have an issue with that, nor do I
• 20:02
  Speaker 2: have an issue with Indiana. Here's where I have the issue.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: And I'm with Justin as well. I Utah, UCLA, BYU.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: You mean to tell me now, granted I get UCLA
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: and Utah undefeated, but if there's so much better than UK,
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: why aren't they ahead of Ohio state, Georgia and Indiana,
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: Notre Dame. So I just look, I think I truly
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: believe Kentucky is better than BYU, UCLA, Utah, Notre Dame too.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: I think if they head-to-head, the U.K. would beat all
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: of those teams right there. I think Utah would be
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: a hell of a game. Utah's good.
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: They're Mountain West. Don't sleep on them. Really? No, they're
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: Big 12 now. Big 12. Okay. Yeah, Big 12 is
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: just kind of, eh, as far as their conference.
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: I mean, but they're a lot like, so they remind
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: me a lot of Indiana last year, whereas everybody's just
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: doubting them because they don't play a great schedule. But
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: then you look at their scores, and it's like they,
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: other than a game at Colorado in which they won
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: by three, they don't have any close games. I mean,
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: they are smoking people. Do you think Kentucky could beat BYU?
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: I do.
• 21:20
  Speaker 8: UCLA?
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: I do. Notre Dame.
• 21:23
  Speaker 5: Yep.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: Exactly. I do, too.
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: Now, you said it'd be a great game, but who
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: do you think would win between Utah and Kentucky?
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: I think it's a coin flip. Do you really? I do. Okay.
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: Fair enough. I'm not going to dispute you there. Honestly,
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: let me just put this out there right now. Okay.
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: Outside of maybe Georgia, I don't think there's a game
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: that Kentucky can't win.
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: Oh, even Indiana?
• 21:49
  Speaker 6: Oh, yeah.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: Really? You have totally flipped on Kentucky. Oh, yeah.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: Because when we were teasing about that earlier in the season,
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: you were laughing about UK playing Indiana.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I've got two eyes. I'm not an idiot.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: I can watch the football every week and see what's
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: going on.
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: I understand, yeah, but you've done a total flip, so
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: I respect that. I don't know how Kentucky would play
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: against the top three or the top four. I'm going
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: to just throw that out there. I don't know. Well,
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: but I mean, Julian sayings out. So how tough would
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: that be really? Well, and the court, you keep telling
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: me the quarterback from UCLA, it's out for the entire season.
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: So that, and that, That should throw them off.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, if you threw out Florida state from the
• 22:31
  Speaker 2: playoffs a few years back, why are you keeping UCLA
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: up there in the top 10? So I just, I just,
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: I truly don't understand the love for Notre Dame.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: I really don't. And yeah, I, and I agree with that.
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: I don't think I will ever, understand any of that,
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: but UK is seven and one after this weekend, never
• 22:52
  Speaker 2: dreamed that was going to happen. The other part that
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: I never dreamed was going to happen. Their first place
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: in the sec by themselves. That's the other crazy thing.
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: And I just, I, I, I, I just can't believe that. But, uh, anyway,
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: this was a payback game for Vanderbilt, uh, since, uh,
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: Vanderbilt lost, or beat Kentucky last year, and that's the
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: best part. I can't explain any more of that, and
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: nor should I have to.
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: Hadn't you all not beat them since 2020? Is that
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: what I remember hearing? Well, it was one game out
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: of five. Okay. Since 2020. Must have been at home.
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: So it's just crazy to see this right here. Let
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: me get to this one as well.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: Uh, John said, uh, John, uh, Michael, by gosh, I
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: am so happy for football and basketball caps.
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: Wow.
• 23:40
  Speaker 2: A top 10 football team in college football. Someone pinch me.
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: I'm right there with you. Somebody's got pinched me and
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: it might take more than one pinch.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: Uh, no way. Better yet. Don't.
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: I love this dream and do not want to wake up. However,
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: this is no longer just a dream. We are here
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: in reality to stay in the college football world. Let's
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: say it together.
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: Cats, cats, cats.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: So C-A-T-S. I got it. I got it, John. I'm
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: right there with you. It is something I never just
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: expected in my lifetime. And I because, you know, even
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: even my our good friend Oscar Combs. Before the season started,
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: there's no way, Mike. Oscar was so pessimistic about this team,
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: and now he's so optimistic. He just wanted to see
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: this team succeed one year in his lifetime, and now
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: it's happening. I mean, this is the best start since 1977.
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: It's a long time. And they had the 1976 team
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: out there Saturday night with Fran Kersey, the former football coach.
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: That was pretty cool. Art still.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: I mean, Art still... Looks fantastic for a guy that is, what,
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: in his 70s? It is amazing how he looks. So, anyway,
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: just thought I'd say that. Buzz texted out, said, Michael,
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: you are kind of intimidating in real life.
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: Does he really mean that?
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: You're laughing. I want to know the answer. Am I
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: in real life intimidating?
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: To me, no. Exactly.
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: Not even in the slightest. Do you think he's being
• 25:14
  Speaker 3: serious or is he being facetious? You never know with Buzz.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: Oh, really? You never know. I don't find myself.
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: Now, I've had former people that worked for me said
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: I'm a bit intimidating. But I think my work back
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: in the day, listen, I didn't. I almost said a
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: bad word. I almost didn't get around, except when I
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: was a little more comfortable and the timing was appropriate.
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: But when it was time to get out down there
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: and do some business, listen, I got down to business.
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: But I don't know. I've never thought of myself as intimidating.
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: I don't want to be intimidating. I want to be
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: fun-loving Michael Bennett. One person texted in fighting is something
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: that I try to avoid, but just like Dalton said
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: in roadhouse, be nice until it's time to be, to
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: not be nice.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: I don't know. A roadhouse. Did you, that was with
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: Patrick Swayze. Yeah.
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: I never saw that movie. So I would agree with that.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: It's not be nice until it's time not to be nice.
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: So.
• 26:18
  Speaker 2: 48 Handley said, the rankings are just for conversation over
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: the kitchen table. I'm not an odds maker or expert,
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: but if I could get Notre Dame even against Kentucky
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: on a neutral field, I'm pushing all my chips in.
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: No doubt. Ooh. See, I am too.
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: This Kentucky team with the coaching staff it currently has
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: they have bought into this coaching staff. They believe not
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: only in the coaching staff, but that coaching staff has
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: turned it around to make this team believe in themselves.
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: And you know, you hear it every time you hear
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: Will Stein talk about University of Kentucky football program. He goes,
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: this is a good team. And not only does he
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: sincerely believe that he has caused and forced his team
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: to believe in it as well. And I think that's
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: a big difference maker from the last 10 years that
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: we've had to what we are today. They truly believe, well,
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: the last five years, I shouldn't say 10 years because
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: you know, that 2018 team was pretty good, but no, they, they,
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: they really and legitimately believe themselves.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: And I think the football program, you know, let's talk
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: about the, the first, what was it?
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: Quarter of the game. And that was a little alarming.
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: At one point, Vanderbilt was leading 10 to nothing. And
• 27:50
  Speaker 2: here's the part that I loved. You heard it from
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: the players. You heard it from the coaches. Nobody panicked
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: on the sidelines.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Because they've been down in every game this year. It
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: seems like that's the case. You're exactly right. I mean,
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: they made that point on the TV broadcast multiple times. Oh,
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: did they really?
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: This is a spot that Kentucky's comfortable in because they've
• 28:07
  Speaker 3: done it so often.
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: Why, though?
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: Because here's the other part. Vanderbilt owned the first quarter.
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: Are you ready for the time of possession? Do you
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: know what it was?
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: Oh, it was a lot to a little. 17 minutes
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: and 34 seconds for Vanderbilt. Their first two drives were
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: so long. Yes, they were.
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: And I'm like, oh, no, this is going to be
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: a long night. Six of Vanderbilt's first eight third downs
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: were converted. That scared me. And the yardage edge in
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: that first quarter was 142 yards to Kentucky's 14.
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: How scary is that? Jared Curtis looked really good in
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: that first quarter. He really did.
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: Because, you know, I'm not going to knock him at all.
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: but he he's a true freshman out there. He doesn't
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: look like a true freshman until a couple of times
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: he did, but he's going to be a great quarterback.
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: I mean a fantastic quarterback. So he'll be, it's just
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: a matter of whether or not, uh, how long he's
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: going to stay.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: So, uh, okay. Let me get to him. Hold on.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: You said I missed more texts. I evidently I'm really
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: sucking at this anymore.
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: Uh, As I've said all season, one texter said, rankings
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: don't matter. If UK takes care of business, then they
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: will be right where they need to be. Just like
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: Gary Allen, Scoots might be the only one getting the
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: 90s country reference.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: Lick some cinnamon butter. Battleship.
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: No, we're not doing that. Now, don't bring in the
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: cinnamon butter. Let this be a nice day and don't
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: bring the cinnamon butter into this. But I don't get
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: the 90s reference.
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: Do you? Gary Allen? Who's Gary Allen? Oh, you don't
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: even know. I feel better now. I got it.
• 29:59
  Speaker 6: Oh, you do?
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: Obviously.
• 30:02
  Speaker 2: Keeneland sounds like it is too pretentious. It's trying to
• 30:07
  Speaker 2: be extra because it's not Churchill Downs. I kind of
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: agree with that.
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So they're very nice, but they do irritate me
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: over there. I mean, it's just a nice place to go.
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: My favorites, Churchill Downs always will be, even though it's
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: in a horrible part of town. But I just... Yeah,
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: it's Keeneland.
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: Stop with the whole coat and tie thing. Okay, let
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: me just go there and enjoy horse racing. Don't make
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: me dress up. I just feel like a lot of
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: people go there just to be seen, not to watch
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: the horses.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Yeah. And that frustrates me
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: because I want to go watch the horses. Is it
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: good racing at Keeneland? I assume. Oh, it's very good racing.
• 30:47
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's very good racing. All right, let's go ahead
• 30:50
  Speaker 2: and take a break. When we come back, I want
• 30:51
  Speaker 2: to talk more about the game because there were some
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: things that really happened. And some valid points I want
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: to make and get into it. But man, some passing
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: interference calls that I just, I still can't get over.
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: One of the guys threw a flag from 40 yards away,
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: calling it pass interference. And then they didn't turn around
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: and call pass interference against Vanderbilt. It's amazing how many
• 31:13
  Speaker 2: missed calls there were. And then how many calls they
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: made that were clearly not even close to being pass interference.
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 31:20
  Speaker 5: 502-414-1450.
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: You want to text in. I want to hear from you.
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: Stay right there. We got a lot more of Just
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: the Cats coming right up. Let's all go down to
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: Doomer's Walker. Let's all go down to Doomer's Walker. We'll
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: get a.
• 31:49
  Speaker 8: Small burger, fries, and a bottle of.
• 31:51
  Speaker 4: Skeet Bring it all down to my baby and.
• 31:57
  Speaker 8: Me Driving through the road.
• 32:09
  Speaker 9: Work Oh, the work they took forever.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: On We share between.
• 32:19
  Speaker 9: The place you learn to say your prayers. The place
• 32:23
  Speaker 9: I took to praying. Floating in and breaking down my road,
• 32:29
  Speaker 9: dark door, dill dreams. Long before we ever met, I
• 32:35
  Speaker 9: made up my direction. Long before I knew the half
• 32:41
  Speaker 9: of half I'm sure of now.
• 32:44
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: Don't turn it off yet. Let it play a little.
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: Are you a fan of this, by the way? It's okay.
• 32:55
  Speaker 3: I mean, be honest. I don't really like it as the...
• 33:00
  Speaker 3: theme song after Kentucky wins.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah. That part doesn't really make sense to me.
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: No, because you know they're doing it now between the
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: third and fourth quarter and they're playing it. All the
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: lights go out. Listen, I will say this. Let me
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: make a gigantic compliment. Ever since the new regime came in,
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: everything has changed in a unbelievably positive way.
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: And I love it. I love that they're trying something
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: between third and fourth quarter. I just... This guy's kind
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: of weird. I'm just not a fan of his music.
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: And I don't know, maybe because I don't really know
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: his music and I don't really care for it that much.
• 33:38
  Speaker 2: But it is kind of cool when they turn that
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: guy singing down and then you hear everybody in the
• 33:46
  Speaker 2: crowd singing. I guess he's more popular than I know.
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: Oh, for sure. I didn't know this guy. What's his name?
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: Tyler Childers. Yeah, Tyler Childers. Childers or Childress? Childers. Childress.
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: You're thinking of Matt Childress. Oh, am I really? Oh,
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: I am thinking of Matt Childress. So, Tyler Childress. Childress. Oh,
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: it is? Okay. Well, whatever his name is. Good grief. Well,
• 34:06
  Speaker 1: I'm not a fan.
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: I mean, but it's cool what they're doing. Can they
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: pick something else out, though? I mean, this is kind of,
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: is that a pep me up song?
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: I would, me personally, I would much prefer, oh my gosh,
• 34:20
  Speaker 3: why am I blanking on the name of it?
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: Don't Stop Believing by Journey is what I would prefer.
• 34:24
  Speaker 2: Something other than that.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: No, Grove Street. Oh, yeah. Grove Street is fun. I'm right.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: But nobody can sing that, though. Sure they can. Can
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: they really? All you got to do is sing the
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: It's a Party part. Oh, well, that would be fun then.
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: And then just do the... Yes. For the rest of it.
• 34:42
  Speaker 8: Yes.
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: I like that idea a thousand times more.
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: Instead of singing this weird guy, let's sing that. Waka Flocka.
• 34:51
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: And we could say, it's a party, it's a party.
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: I like that a thousand times more. And that is
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: a pop song.
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Oh, very much so. And that will get... Because
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: it's nice to hear... If you want to play that song,
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: play it at the end of the game when the
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: game's over, okay? Don't play it when you got a
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: close game and it's, well, it wasn't Saturday night, but
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: if you got a close game like we might have
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: against Florida or UofL, play Waka Flocka, then turn the
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: music down and have everybody yelling, it's a party, it's
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: a party. I'm telling you, everybody would be going wild.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: Not playing something like this. Okay, for all of you
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: that like that singer, I'm sorry. Okay, and I'm not
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: trying to cut on him or you or anything like that.
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: I'm just not a fan, and it's not a feel-good
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: song that makes me want to, oh, let's get going.
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: It's just like, well, this is kind of a subdued song.
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: I just didn't get that. So anyway, I get that
• 35:48
  Speaker 2: he's from Kentucky, right? I do have that right.
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: There's so many other singers that are from Kentucky that
• 35:54
  Speaker 2: have upbeat music. Can't we play something like that? So
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Kentucky, pick something else out, please. But
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: I'm not trying to be rude. I'm just trying to
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: be honest here. But what they have done in that
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: football environment, is nothing.
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: Short of amazing. Oh, it's incredible.
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: The lights go out. It's blue and white lights flashing everywhere.
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: The band, the cheerleaders have blue or white lights on them.
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: And it is the coolest environment I've seen that I've
• 36:31
  Speaker 2: ever seen at UK. And it might be one of
• 36:33
  Speaker 2: the cooler environments at UK. I mean, in the country.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: It is. Like, it comes across on TV really well.
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: Does it really?
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: Okay, good. There was a funny moment, though, on Saturday.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: And I don't want to call her out, but I
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: have to. Okay. So you know how the cheerleaders, they'll
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: do the whole blue-white thing? Yes.
• 36:51
  Speaker 3: And they'll put the pom-poms on the certain side that
• 36:54
  Speaker 3: needs to be shouting? Well, so there was one cheerleader
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: on Saturday.
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: Oh, no. I think it was the white side. Okay.
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: So, like, they would all put their white pom-poms on
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: the white side for people to say white.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 37:06
  Speaker 3: Well, this poor girl, she was doing it back. So
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: she was putting her blue palm towards the white side
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: and her white palm towards the blue side. And every
• 37:15
  Speaker 3: other cheerleader was doing it correctly. So she was dyslexic,
• 37:18
  Speaker 3: in other words. It was pretty funny. Me and the
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: roommate had a good laugh about it.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: Oh, that poor thing. I mean, that's okay. Listen, I'm dyslexic,
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: so I screw up stuff all the time. So don't
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: worry about it. I think that's great. But it was something, though.
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: At one point, Vanderbilt had 30 plays and UK had
• 37:36
  Speaker 2: six plays.
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, how great.
• 37:40
  Speaker 2: But here's where the momentum changed. Last five minutes of
• 37:43
  Speaker 2: the first half.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: For sure. UK scored 14 points. That was huge.
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: And you knew the momentum shift had completely gone the
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: opposite way for Vanderbilt.
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: I mean, I did think it was funny.
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: You know, they had that little goal line play where
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: they did against LSU and Lane Kiffin went nuts because
• 38:03
  Speaker 2: he said that UK went all sides or false start, whatever.
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: And they had the same play that they did. And
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: I call it the Lane Kiffin penalty now because they
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: called false start on Kentucky during that play.
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: You don't remember that? I don't. I thought that was funny. Yeah.
• 38:22
  Speaker 3: But I do know those points before half were huge.
• 38:25
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it was.
• 38:25
  Speaker 3: I mean, even if you didn't get both of those touchdowns,
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: You need to do at least just get one. And
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: then knowing you get the ball coming out of the half.
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I think momentum either way was going to be
• 38:35
  Speaker 1: in your face. Oh, yeah. But getting two before the
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: half and then getting the ball back. That was math.
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: You're exactly correct. Was this Kenny Menchie's best game? He
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: had a 203 passing yards, a TD through the air.
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: And another one on the ground, which was an unbelievable one.
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: And then he went 19 of 26 with zero, zero interceptions.
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you can say it was Kenny
• 39:06
  Speaker 3: Mitchell's best game. Because when you look at his stat
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: lines all season long, I feel like they've all looked
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: the exact same.
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: I mean, he's throwing for about 200. 220 yards. He's
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: throwing a touchdown or two. He's not letting go of
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: the football and giving it over to the opponent. I mean,
• 39:24
  Speaker 3: I feel like, literally, I feel like it's Groundhog's Day
• 39:27
  Speaker 3: every time he's out.
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: On the field.
• 39:30
  Speaker 2: I got it. One texter said, Michael, leave it alone.
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: Everything is working right now. Cats are winning. Environment is amazing.
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: The song has begun.
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: Leave it alone, Michael. Yeah, but it's just, it's a
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: crap song. I mean, sorry, man. I just.
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: I guess I'm in the minority. I just, I, I
• 39:50
  Speaker 2: would rather have something else. I'll do my best to
• 39:53
  Speaker 2: leave it. I just, I brought it up today. It's
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: just like, and I won't bring it up again, but
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: it's just like, oh my God.
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: There's got a point though. I mean, if it's working
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: and you're, well, that's fair point. You're right. And one,
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: you can't be changing it now. Yeah. Okay. Well, we'll
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: deal with it, but you'll deal with it. Well, okay.
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: I'll deal with it, but it's just like, there are
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: so many better singers from Kentucky. Then he's kind of, he's,
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: He's just odd. He comes across as an odd person
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: to me. I'm just like, okay, whatever. And it's just
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: an odd song.
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: I like it. You do? Okay, whatever. We'll deal with this. Okay,
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: I'll hush. Michael and Scoots. Scott and St. Augustine here.
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: What's up, Scott? Good to hear you, Scott.
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: Cards fan. I hate UK like Scoots hates Purdue. Great
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: way to start. Thanks for the positivity on this Monday.
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: I texted recently that I am boycotting just the cats
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: if Will Stein becomes the next Kurt Zignetti.
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: Oh, no. Oh, my God. We're about to lose a list.
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: I don't want to do that. Please don't let me
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: lose you. Well, this is coming in fruition. Michael, I
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: renege on my words only because I love your show, sir.
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: This morning on Sunrise, Scoots mentioned a UofL fan probably
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: feels nauseated or something to the sentiment that a former
• 41:11
  Speaker 2: UofL quarterback is having such success at UK.
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: Actually, I'm loving this.
• 41:16
  Speaker 8: Really?
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: For three years now, we are watching history unfold in
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: college football. IU the prior to, IU and UK today.
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: This is awesome.
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: Stein is maybe more impressive as he is a first-year
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: coach in college.
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: The SEC. Wow.
• 41:35
  Speaker 3: Thank you, Scott. Sounds like you're an Indiana and Kentucky fan.
• 41:39
  Speaker 3: It sounds like it is turning.
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: You know, as my buddies told me over there at UofL, Michael,
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: we're going to change this show into just the cards.
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: No, we're not.
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: We might change you into assistant coach back at UK.
• 41:50
  Speaker 2: So there you go. We'd be talking about a lot
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: of losing if it was just the cards.
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, it is interesting he brings this up, though.
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: How do the UofL fans feel?
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: Because preseason... A lot of people, including myself, were predicting
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: that UofL was going to be in the college football playoffs. Clearly,
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: that's not going to happen now.
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: I predicted that as well. See, I didn't. I just
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: knew with the schedule that they had this year, there's
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: no way they could screw that up. I thought they
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: would lose one game and one game only. And here
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: we are today.
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: It's UK that has lost the one game and one
• 42:30
  Speaker 2: game only. I mean, I really cannot believe that. So
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: I'd like to hear from the UofL listeners right now.
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: How do you feel about watching UK have this success
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: and and UofL not having quite the success that they
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: were anticipating.
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: What do you think? Do you think they're losing their
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: mind watching Will Stein succeed?
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: Like Scott said, I said on my show this morning,
• 42:55
  Speaker 3: if I'm a Louisville fan watching this, it makes me
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: want to puke. At some point, some part of me
• 43:03
  Speaker 3: is happy for Will Stein. A small, small, small part
• 43:07
  Speaker 3: of it.
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: Oh, come on. It's more than that.
• 43:09
  Speaker 3: But then the other half is, or the other 95%
• 43:12
  Speaker 3: is just jealousy and hatred towards Kentucky.
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: Like, how are you all doing this?
• 43:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: Well, we're not doing it. He's doing it. I mean,
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: it's something else. Now, do you think the day will
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: ever come when he doesn't L's down? He hasn't done
• 43:30
  Speaker 2: it yet.
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: I don't know. You don't think so? I don't think
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: so either.
• 43:33
  Speaker 3: By the way, Ole Miss players on Saturday, they were
• 43:35
  Speaker 3: all doing the horns down against Texas.
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: I love that. Nothing came of it. Isn't that a
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: rule in the SEC now?
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: No, that was within the Big 12. Oh, you're right. Yeah,
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: that was the Big 12. That would not allow them.
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: And if they ever instigate that into the SEC, I'm
• 43:51
  Speaker 2: going to lose my mind there too. They can't be
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: doing that.
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: So, oh, goody. Here it comes again. Well, maybe it
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: makes this show successful. So we'll play it. Maybe I
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: should make this my intro. How do you like that? No,
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: that ain't going to happen. No, thank you.
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: We've got to take a break. Hour two coming up
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: at Just the Cats. We're still talking UK football, the
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: number eight or ninth team in the country. Stay right there.
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: We'll see you in a minute.
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: Welcome to Just the Cats with Michael Bennett.
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: All right, we're on to our number two of Just
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: the Cats on this Monday, celebrating another, yet another win
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: over the weekend. It's just amazing how this team has
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: won five games in a row, and the number of
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: they've won more games on the road than they have
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: on their own field. I mean, that's just, that to
• 45:00
  Speaker 2: me is the craziest thing to think about right there.
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: And the week off comes at a perfect time, helps
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: get everybody healthy because the only thing that worried me
• 45:09
  Speaker 2: the most was watching CJ Baxter.
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: Run off the field. And I don't think he ever
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: came back, did he? He didn't. Yeah. Yeah. Which I
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: was worried at that point. Yes. Jason Patterson. Shout out
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: to Barnes and Patterson. Exactly. Barnes too. They both played
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: very well. Yes, they did.
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: Uh, but it didn't look like it was, did they
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: ever mentioned to what the injury was? Cause it looked
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: more like an arm than it was, uh, his, uh, leg.
• 45:35
  Speaker 2: Cause that, that was what was bothering him before. And
• 45:37
  Speaker 2: then last year too, when he was at Texas was
• 45:40
  Speaker 2: his leg.
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 45:41
  Speaker 3: I don't recall them ever saying, I, all I know
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: is it was, it was kind of an awkward tackle
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: looking tackle that.
• 45:46
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: Took him a game, so that was just unfortunate. But yeah,
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: I don't think they alluded to it.
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: One person texted in, Michael, asking how Louisville fans feel
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: has me imagining him holding his gold chalice under their
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: faces to collect their tears to drink while laughing. They
• 46:01
  Speaker 2: sold their souls to jerk, and now the Reaper has
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: come to collect.
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: There's a lot of truth to that, by the way.
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: But I'm afraid they're going to make it up in basketball.
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: I have to correct you on something, by the way.
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: All right, what did I do wrong?
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: Kentucky has not won more games on the road than
• 46:19
  Speaker 3: they have at home. Four wins at home, three on
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: the road.
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: Well, okay, they've lost one at home. They haven't lost any.
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: All right, let me change how I said it.
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: You're right.
• 46:29
  Speaker 2: They're undefeated on the road.
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: At home, they've lost a game. Does that continue against Tennessee?
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: I sure hope so. Also, how about Tennessee?
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: You freaking bums couldn't win to make Kentucky-Tennessee a top
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: ten matchup.
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Losers. Yeah. Well, did you see how the players
• 46:48
  Speaker 1: acted after the game? No. Down in South Carolina? Uh-uh.
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: There were a number of players that... push people to
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: the ground as they were coming off the field. Really? Yeah.
• 47:00
  Speaker 2: So the fans were, obviously South Carolina was going down
• 47:04
  Speaker 2: to celebrate on the field. And there were a number
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: of players that literally pushed people to the ground, slap
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: their phones out of their hands, all kinds of stuff.
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, you know what? That's, that's the loser.
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: Mentality that drives me bonkers just to let you know
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: that no, there's no excuse. I mean, to me, that's assault.
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: And I wonder if the University of Tennessee is going
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: to address it or the SEC is going to address it.
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: Just because you lost and people are coming on the
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: field doesn't give you the right to go hit those people.
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: Not at all.
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: I mean, you got to just bite your tongue, bite
• 47:41
  Speaker 2: your lip, get off the field as fast as you can,
• 47:45
  Speaker 2: and move on.
• 47:46
  Speaker 1: Go back to Knoxville. But, yeah, and Shane Beamer's driving
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: me up the wall. The way that game ended, though. Yeah,
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: that was crazy, wasn't it? That was crazy. Yeah. I mean, Tennessee,
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: they probably deserved to lose, to be honest with you. Really?
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: With fumbling in that spot where they did? Yeah. Fumbling
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: right there, and all they got to do is kick
• 48:04
  Speaker 1: a field goal. That was nuts. I mean, it's just like,
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: how do you do that? Because you're Tennessee. Yeah.
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know whether or not to feel
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: sorry for the Tennessee fans more. Or the South Carolina
• 48:18
  Speaker 2: fans more, because now they've got to endure probably another
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: year with Shane Beamer.
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. No question. You beat Tennessee and Florida in
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: the same year? There is no way they're firing him. Yeah,
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: he's not going anywhere. Yeah. And you know so many
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: of those fans don't want him there anymore. I mean,
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: have they walked that back now? Probably. I don't think so.
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: I think they still want him gone. I bet a
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: number of them have walked that back. Really? Okay. Well,
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: we'll see.
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: But I still think there's a number of them that
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: just don't have any faith in him. But it's just crazy.
• 48:48
  Speaker 2: This season has been crazy. And I got to believe
• 48:53
  Speaker 2: that somebody like Josh Heupel and Lane Kiffin, for that fact, well,
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: Lane Kiffin said it verbally many times, can't play these
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: nine games in the SEC.
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: We're beating each other up. It's going to hurt the
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: league in the end. It's incredible to watch.
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: I think it's fantastic. Especially with the parody. Well, UK's
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: having a good season. Never dreamed that was going to happen.
• 49:15
  Speaker 2: But the fact that UK is doing this and everybody
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: else is getting beat up.
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: It's been fun. But yeah. Am I worried about Tennessee now? Yes. Yeah, absolutely.
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: I am. That's that to me.
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: I think if you look at the final games that
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: UK has, you got Tennessee, Missouri, Florida in Lexington and
• 49:37
  Speaker 2: UofL in Lexington. That's the last four games, correct?
• 49:40
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: I'm worried more. Let's put them in order. And here's
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: my order right here. Tennessee, number one, as the toughest game. Missouri,
• 49:49
  Speaker 2: number two. And here's where I have a little difficult
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: of a time. I almost want to put UofL next
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: purely because it's a rivalry game.
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: You put Florida last? I might. I'd put Florida second.
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: Would you? Because of John Summerall.
• 50:09
  Speaker 3: I mean, they've spent time in the top ten this year.
• 50:11
  Speaker 3: But they've been way up and down.
• 50:12
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: I mean, they definitely have been, but that shows that
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: they have the ability to beat anyone. All right, then. Well,
• 50:18
  Speaker 1: then I'll put Florida next, and then you about last.
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: Where are you with this? I would go Tennessee, Florida, Missouri, Louisville. Oh,
• 50:28
  Speaker 1: you would put Florida before Missouri, really? But Florida's in
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: Lexington and Missouri's away in Columbia. Yeah, no, I know that.
• 50:35
  Speaker 1: I'm not high on that Missouri team. You're not? Not
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: at all.
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I just don't know what you're going to get.
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: Here's the problem. The last four games, I don't know
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: what you're going to get out of any four of
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: those teams. They've been so up and down all over
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: the place, especially with Tennessee losing to South Carolina.
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: Are you kidding me? If I was a betting man,
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: I would have put the farm on Tennessee on that game. Now,
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: you had a good weekend.
• 51:01
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 51:02
  Speaker 1: Have you already talked about it on your show? I
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: talked about the UCF one. Okay.
• 51:08
  Speaker 2: You had a very good gambling weekend, by the way.
• 51:11
  Speaker 2: You know, I don't really like talking much about gambling,
• 51:14
  Speaker 2: but I'm impressed by what you did.
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: Go ahead. You picked.
• 51:19
  Speaker 2: You said it on your show then. You picked Central
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: Florida to beat BYU, which I can tell you I
• 51:25
  Speaker 2: would have never picked that one.
• 51:26
  Speaker 3: For what it's worth, I did take them with the points,
• 51:28
  Speaker 3: so I was getting 10 and a half there. But
• 51:31
  Speaker 3: I liked UCF there. I also was on Cincinnati getting points.
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: Against Texas Tech. That's another one. What were the points,
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: by the way, with Cincinnati? Ooh, that I don't remember.
• 51:40
  Speaker 1: Don't worry about it. Maybe eight and a half. Okay.
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: Seven and a half. But the fact that you picked
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: Central Florida and Cincinnati, there's no way.
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: I would have picked those two teams. Also picked the
• 51:51
  Speaker 3: Falcons to beat the 49ers yesterday, for what it's worth.
• 51:54
  Speaker 3: geez louise i was on my upset pics this weekend
• 51:57
  Speaker 3: were spot on.
• 51:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah did you see the nfl referee that got kicked
• 52:00
  Speaker 2: in the uh you know between the legs and he's
• 52:02
  Speaker 2: laying on the ground and throws a flag was that
• 52:06
  Speaker 2: awesome i was actually watching that game you were watching
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: that oh my gosh it was so funny that was
• 52:12
  Speaker 2: him throwing a flag i'm laying flat on his back
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: It looks exactly like you would imagine it to look
• 52:19
  Speaker 2: if you haven't seen it.
• 52:20
  Speaker 1: I loved it. I mean, it's like, well, I'm trying
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: to figure out, well, who's the personal foul on?
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: They didn't intentionally kick him between the legs. So do
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: you think that was a personal foul that was deserved?
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: Me and the roommate didn't think so in real time.
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, cause there was no intent behind it.
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: Not at all. But that poor ref. Yeah. He gets
• 52:40
  Speaker 1: kicked right in like the lower gut.
• 52:42
  Speaker 3: And then as he's going down to the ground, he
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: gets kicked in the head.
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: Like, Holy smokes. Oh, I'm laughing, but it's not funny. So, uh,
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: all right, let's go back to a couple of things
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: with UK. Uh, Can we talk about and give enough
• 52:59
  Speaker 1: accolades to the defense for UK?
• 53:01
  Speaker 6: No.
• 53:02
  Speaker 2: That's who closed out that game right there. So this
• 53:06
  Speaker 2: is the one big switch.
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: I think this is.
• 53:09
  Speaker 2: The biggest thing that has changed from the Mark Stoops
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: era to the Will Stein era. And that's the halftime adjustments.
• 53:18
  Speaker 2: because the defense stepped it up like crazy. Vanderbilt ran
• 53:21
  Speaker 2: for just 15 yards on 17 carries, averaging 0.9 yards
• 53:29
  Speaker 2: per rush. How do you like that? UK's defense had
• 53:33
  Speaker 2: three sacks, forced two turnovers. I mean, it's just third quarter,
• 53:38
  Speaker 2: McQueen's Humphrey Grace, Sacked the Vanderbilts quarterback and Tavian Gadsen
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: recovered the fumble on Vanderbilts 17 yard line.
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: That was a huge play. That was a massive play.
• 53:50
  Speaker 2: The dagger was UK up 27-17 and Ty Bryant intercepted
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: Jared Curtis of Vanderbilt that made Bryant's third straight game
• 53:59
  Speaker 2: with an interception. That's where he showed that he's a freshman.
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: He's awesome. I love Ty Bryant. But he is awesome. Yeah. Oh,
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: how can you not? And then Minchie ran in the
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: very next play for the touchdown. That was it.
• 54:11
  Speaker 2: But I did like the Rodriguez play where it was
• 54:15
  Speaker 2: supposed to be kind of a Tim Tebow pass over
• 54:19
  Speaker 2: the line. But he said it was so open that
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: he just ran it in for a touchdown.
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: I don't. Well, I mean, looking back at that in hindsight. Yes.
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: If you go back and you rewatch that play. Yeah.
• 54:30
  Speaker 3: He acts like he's going to jump and pass that ball. Well,
• 54:33
  Speaker 3: that was designed that way. No, but I think he
• 54:34
  Speaker 3: has enough wherewithal to see there was a defensive back
• 54:38
  Speaker 3: that was going to jump that route.
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: Oh, really?
• 54:41
  Speaker 3: If he would have ended up jumping and throwing that ball,
• 54:44
  Speaker 3: a thousand percent would have been picked off. So then
• 54:47
  Speaker 3: I think he just used his high football IQ and
• 54:49
  Speaker 3: looked around and said, Look at this right side.
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: It's wide open here. Yeah. How about that? You're exactly right.
• 54:55
  Speaker 1: But just the fact that he just, he could walk in.
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: He literally, again. He could have crawled in. Oh, absolutely.
• 55:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, well, he would have been down because his
• 55:03
  Speaker 1: knee would have been down. Good point. And you know,
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: we said it before.
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: You can tell Vanderbilt's quarterback, Jared Curtis, he's going to
• 55:12
  Speaker 2: be a star quarterback without a doubt.
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: Mm-hmm. And it's just, it's a Matt.
• 55:17
  Speaker 2: Now I heard from a couple of Vanderbilt people that
• 55:21
  Speaker 2: they did make him sign. He's, he's making $ 4 million
• 55:24
  Speaker 2: from Vanderbilt and he signed a two year contract. So
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: he's there. Evidently we'll see for the better part of
• 55:33
  Speaker 2: two years, but after that, does he stay?
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: I guess it just depends on the team success. Yeah.
• 55:41
  Speaker 3: If the team's not, if you're, if you're in a
• 55:43
  Speaker 3: spot where you're not going to the college football playoff,
• 55:45
  Speaker 3: which that's not going to happen for Vanderbilt this year.
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 55:48
  Speaker 3: But if that, if you run that back and it's
• 55:49
  Speaker 3: the same case next year, yeah, I, I would see
• 55:52
  Speaker 3: him leave. Yeah. I, I can't help but see him leaving.
• 55:56
  Speaker 3: I don't know why.
• 55:56
  Speaker 2: I mean, I, I, I hate it for Clark Lee.
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: Cause I, in Vanderbilt, cause I kind of feel like
• 56:02
  Speaker 2: UK and Vanderbilt, they're always the bottom feeders when it
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: comes to football. And I, I kind of feel for them.
• 56:09
  Speaker 2: I mean, I, I really think that, I don't know.
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: Is Vanderbilt going to get– they had that taste of
• 56:14
  Speaker 2: success with your best friend Diego Pavia.
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: Are they going to feel it again?
• 56:19
  Speaker 3: This is the part of your heart that feels for Vanderbilt.
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: Absolutely it does.
• 56:25
  Speaker 3: Because as an Indiana fan, I have not once felt
• 56:28
  Speaker 3: sorry for Rutgers and Michigan State, Northwestern.
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: Never. That would never even come into my mind. Right.
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: So you just have a soft spot for Vanderbilt, so
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: I get it. I do. Well, because my son and
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: my wife went to school there.
• 56:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 56:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah. We know why. She didn't like me teasing. I
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: was teasing her this weekend. Maybe I went a little
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: too far. Tell her to be a fan of a
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: better football team. Hey-oh.
• 56:50
  Speaker 4: Wow.
• 56:51
  Speaker 1: You can tell her I said that.
• 56:52
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: You're going to be mad at me. Yeah.
• 56:54
  Speaker 2: And you want some Christmas goodies? Yeah, I don't think
• 56:57
  Speaker 2: I would say that. I don't think I'd do that
• 57:00
  Speaker 2: one right there. So you want that, what was it called, Butterfinger?
• 57:04
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 57:04
  Speaker 1: That's good stuff. By the way, we are within two
• 57:07
  Speaker 1: months of Christmas. Isn't that crazy? It is crazy.
• 57:10
  Speaker 3: I was thinking this weekend. I was like, it's about
• 57:11
  Speaker 3: to be November. How the hell did that happen?
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: And they're playing Christmas movies right now. Are they really? Oh, yeah.
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: It seems like the last couple of weeks they've been
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: playing Christmas movies. I'm like, you've got to be kidding me.
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: I saw Netflix uploaded a bunch. Oh, my gosh. Come on, man.
• 57:27
  Speaker 2: What do you think was the bigger win? South Carolina
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: over Tennessee? Central Florida beating BYU? Or Cincinnati beating Texas Tech?
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: Um.
• 57:41
  Speaker 3: I mean, naturally, you'd want to go UCF here just
• 57:44
  Speaker 3: because they beat the number two team in the country.
• 57:46
  Speaker 3: But were they deserving of the number two team in
• 57:48
  Speaker 3: the country? You can have that debate.
• 57:50
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: I would say Cincinnati. Would you really? Because you know
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: who their head coach is. Oh, that's right. It's Scott Satterfield.
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: How the hell Scott Satterfield winning a game like that? Oh, yeah.
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: I forgot about that. Yeah. Scott's tots. Scott's tots. Oh,
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: my gosh, man. Yeah, that's the guy I wish was
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: still at UofL. I really do.
• 58:12
  Speaker 2: As much as I really like Jeff, and I do, personally,
• 58:16
  Speaker 2: I like Jeff Brom. Really like that guy.
• 58:18
  Speaker 1: If Satterfield was at Louisville, would Vince still be at Kentucky? Oh, 100%. Oh, wait, wait, wait. Yes,
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: I really think so, because Jeff Brom, he and Jeff
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: Brom were buddies before... Jeff Brom and Vince Merrill were
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: a thing in college. They played together.
• 58:40
  Speaker 2: So, yeah, I'm positive that I feel pretty confident if
• 58:45
  Speaker 2: Scott Totts was still at UofL, Vince would be at UK. Now,
• 58:50
  Speaker 2: whether or not Will Stein would have kept him or
• 58:52
  Speaker 2: not is a different story. Do you think if For
• 58:56
  Speaker 2: some reason, Vince did not quit and go to UofL.
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: Do you think Will Stein would have tried to keep
• 59:02
  Speaker 2: and retain Vince Merrill to stay at UK?
• 59:05
  Speaker 1: Hold tight, Mike. I'm on the phone. Oh, you are? Oh, okay.
• 59:08
  Speaker 1: All right, then. Never mind.
• 59:09
  Speaker 2: You can answer that a little later. Let me get
• 59:11
  Speaker 2: to a couple of texts here. 502-414-1450 is not the text.
• 59:15
  Speaker 2: That's how you text in, okay? How about those brewers
• 59:18
  Speaker 2: coming from Michelle? You know, come on, Michelle. Are you
• 59:22
  Speaker 2: trying to hurt me right now? the brewers are, as
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: you don't have much baseball, my Tampa Bay rays are
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: losing down two games to nothing to, uh, the, uh, brewers.
• 59:33
  Speaker 2: And I'm not happy about this. So yeah, it's, it's
• 59:36
  Speaker 2: kind of tough. And, uh, a lot of my friends
• 59:38
  Speaker 2: down there in St. Pete are, uh, up in arms.
• 59:41
  Speaker 2: And some of my friends up here are headed down
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: to St. Pete to go see the games. And, uh,
• 59:46
  Speaker 2: so good for them. But, uh, I just, I hope
• 59:48
  Speaker 2: the rays can have a little, a little something.
• 59:52
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 59:52
  Speaker 2: But, uh, Zach texted out. He said, I thought UK
• 59:59
  Speaker 2: UofL isn't a rivalry game.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: Well, to me, it's not.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 2: On the basketball side. On the football side, it hasn't
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 2: been much of a rivalry on the UK side.
• 1:00:11
  Speaker 1: It's been UofL that's dominated this.
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 2: So my definition says the football game maybe is a
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 2: little more rivalry because it's been pretty close. But the
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: basketball size, no, it's not. So there you go. Is
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 2: that your answer, Zach? So sorry about that. My Walmart
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 2: already has Christmas stuff out.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 2: I bet if you go to Costco or any of
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 2: those Sam's Club and all those places, I bet they do, too.
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 2: Once they get the Christmas trees out, I was like, oh,
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 2: my gosh, man. And it still feels nice out.
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 1: You know, the weather was perfect this weekend. Weather's been
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: perfect for, like, three straight weeks. How crazy is that?
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 1: It's been awesome. Oh, yeah.
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: I mean, that has been a lot of fun. So,
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 2: all right, let's go to the phone line, 502-384-1450. You
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 2: said Ed's on the phone?
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: Ed's on the phone. Ed, what's going on, my friend?
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 6: Have you been eating too many hard-boiled eggs on Monday morning?
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 6: Saying Kentucky, Louisville is not a rival?
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I say that all the time. When it comes
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 2: to basketball, it's not a rivalry. UK has dominated in
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 2: basketball so much, it can't be a rivalry unless it's
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 2: pretty evenly matched up.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: It hasn't been even.
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 6: I told you to cut back on those whole boiled
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 6: eggs on Monday morning. They're not good for you. They're
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 6: clouding your mind.
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 2: Can I tell you, I was at Churchill Downs yesterday.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 2: My lunch was deviled eggs. So, listen, I'm still going
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 2: to eat that.
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 6: Either way, hard-boiled eggs, deviled eggs, you should stay away
• 1:01:41
  Speaker 6: from eggs. No, the reason I called is I wanted
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 6: to just say I was at the LSU game, Kentucky,
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 6: and I was also at the Vandy game on Saturday.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 6: I have never seen... So much un, what's the word
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 6: I'm looking for? Enthusiasm toward a team. Kenny Menchie was
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 6: still out in the hallway there in the Nutter Center
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 6: signing autographs an hour after the game. I mean, these
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 6: kids have bought in, and Will Stein has really bought
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 6: into the whole culture thing. It's fun to go to
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 6: a football, the Keith kids, we're having a great time
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 6: out there.
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah.
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 6: And the adults were just alike. It's just a total,
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 6: I mean, before, okay, let's face it. Let's say Mark
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 6: Stoops was a defensive coach. Things were kind of bland
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 6: around there for a while. Are you agree with me?
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. They were the last five years. They've been bland.
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 6: And now, I mean, it's who would, if you'd have
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 6: told me back on August the 25th or whatever, a
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 6: couple of weeks before the season, the Kentucky would be
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 6: ahead in the Southeastern conference standings. I looked at you
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 6: like you had four eyes and eight and hard boiled
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 6: eggs were coming out of your ears.
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: You're all about the hard, bold eggs. Aren't you?
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 6: Yes. Yes, I am. But anyway, and don't take this
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 6: the wrong way. I don't think Kentucky is great, but
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 6: I think they're very, very good at what they do.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 6: I was, I was watching the game and they're defensive guys.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 6: The linebacker, all of them, really. If they go to
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 6: make a tackle, they make the tackle.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: Yes, they do.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 6: These guys, when Vandy didn't.
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 2: Get away from them.
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 6: I mean, you can say what you want about Vandy.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 6: Vandy wasn't terrible. They weren't awful. They led 10-0.
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: Ed, let me ask you this.
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 3: If you think the Cats aren't great, is there anyone
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 3: in the country that you think is great? Because we've
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 3: been talking this morning about how it seems like everybody's
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 3: so close together.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 6: Even Miami is not great-great. Now, they're very good. They're
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 6: probably the best team in the country. But anybody that
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 6: goes too over, and I know it's a rivalry.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 5: C.L.
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 6: Brown and I debated this on Saturday when I had
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 6: lunch with him. Well, Florida State and Miami, they're a rivalry. Well, yeah,
• 1:04:05
  Speaker 6: but Florida State looks so bad. for three quarters against Louisville.
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 6: I mean, Louisville's good. Don't get me wrong. Don't let
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 6: Louisville fans, when I see you at the press conference today,
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 6: don't bring up a shotgun and say, this guy's turned
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 6: into a Kentucky fan.
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: No, Ed is a Kentucky fan. You've been to two
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 1: games now.
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 2: No, Ed, you've been to two games now. You are
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 2: a Kentucky fan. So no, just go ahead and readily
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 2: admit it, Ed. You are a Kentucky fan and you're
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 2: becoming a diehard Kentucky fan.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 1: And I love every second of it. And thank you
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 1: for those eggs.
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 6: Hey, I'm a college football fan.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 1: I'm just having fun with you, Ed. All right, Ed.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 6: Hey, don't tell my family that I'm a Kentucky fan
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 6: because this is a lot.
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 1: Anything else you want to add to it, Ed? We're
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: going to let you go.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 6: No, I just wanted to say if Kentucky can win
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 6: three out of the last four or it's split, I
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 6: don't know if they'll make the playoff or the SEC
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 6: championship game. Wouldn't that be something in the first season
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 6: that he makes the SEC championship?
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 1: Absolutely. You're exactly right. Thanks for the phone call, Ed.
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 1: Good to hear from you.
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: But, you know, he's absolutely correct. The first year of
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 2: Will Stein, here we are looking at what we're looking at.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 2: Just like I said a little while ago in the
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 2: first hour, it hasn't been since 1977 that UK went
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 2: 7-1 to start the season. And that's just crazy numbers
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 2: that he's putting up here. And nobody would have ever
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 2: thought this would have happened. Now, there are a couple
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 2: of crazies out there that were buying into it at
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 2: an early time period.
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 1: I sure did not. Not at all.
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 2: But, I mean, this is– I still can't believe I'm
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 2: saying it. The eighth or ninth ranked team in the country,
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 2: and some people are calling it to be even higher
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 2: than that.
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 3: I mean, you're at the spot now where– and this
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 3: is going to sound crazy, but– You could realistically drop
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 3: two more games, and as long as they're not blowouts,
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 3: and I don't even care which two it is, as
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 3: long as they're close games, I still think, And nine
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 3: and three Kentucky gets in just based on, I don't know,
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 3: based on the wins.
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I see. I understand. You're exactly correct. Cause that's
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: the other part. It's funny.
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 2: What, when, when Will Stein says that to you, it's
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 2: interesting when we beat a team, now they're bad.
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: It's like, what?
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 2: They were good before. And he's absolutely correct. And, uh, but, uh,
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 2: it's just 502-414-1450. You want to text in on the
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 2: whiskey thief text line, or if you want to be
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 2: like Ed and call in, I'd love that too.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: 502-384-1450.
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 2: Stay right there. We'll be right back with more Jessica.
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 5: The work we done was hard. At night we'd sleep
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 5: cause we were tired. I never thought of ever leaving
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 5: with your holler.
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 4: But I've been losing and lonesome too. I've been Colorado
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 4: high and I wish I was tonight.
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 6: But I'm just fine.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 4: Kentucky blue.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 6: What?
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: We're not Kentucky blue? I was thinking more so the color,
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: not being sad. Oh, my gosh.
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 2: Maybe this is the song they should replace that Tyler
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 2: Childress song with.
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: Play this Kentucky blue song. Oh, my gosh.
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 3: Why are we overthinking this whole thing? Why just not
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 3: do my old Kentucky home?
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 2: Now, see, that would be beautiful. But a lot of
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 2: people complained about that. Before you play a game, the
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 2: whole stadium's been brought down because my old Kentucky home
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 2: is kind of sad.
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 1: It's kind of sad.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 2: If you listen to the lyrics while you're singing, pay attention,
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 2: and it's kind of a sad song.
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it is.
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 2: And so a lot of people complain, let's not play
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 2: my old Kentucky home.
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: Let's save that for after the game. And see, that
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: made sense to me. But I am.
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 2: Worried that if we're in a close game that we
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 2: bring out that song and everybody's singing it, it's like, okay, well,
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 2: now we're kind of down and out because we just
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 2: sang this Childress song, whatever his name is, and everybody
• 1:08:38
  Speaker 2: loses the mood.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 1: I don't want that to happen. Get all sad. Start crying. Exactly.
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 1: We can't have that. Let's not start crying.
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 2: And then now we want to sing about some lady
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 2: that was in Colorado getting high and she was Texas down.
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 2: I mean, what's the text? I don't get that song.
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 2: Who was that? Britt Taylor.
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: Oh boy. Never heard of her. Yeah. Okay, good. Well,
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 1: let's not hear from her again. Might have been a
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 1: swing and a miss. Oh, really? We are going to
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 1: hear it one more time. No, please don't. We are.
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: It's just a fact of the matter. Oh, my God.
• 1:09:07
  Speaker 1: By the way, if you want a song that'll pump
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: you up. Yes. I had one yesterday. Oh, you did?
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 1: Did you watch football over in Paris? No, I didn't
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: watch any of that, but.
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 3: Do yourself a favor today and go watch the national
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 3: anthem that they played before the game. It was incredible.
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 3: My favorite rendition of the national anthem ever.
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 3: Oh, there was like a, what's the, I guess jazz.
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 3: Is that what they use down in like new Orleans?
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So it was like jazzy. Oh, it was so good.
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 1: That's kind of cool. Saxophone and everything. Interesting. It was awesome. Okay.
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 1: I'll go back and watch that.
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 2: So, Yeah, because I think the music professor from UK,
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 2: he'll start the national anthem and steps back from the mic,
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 2: and it's now acapella at Commonwealth Stadium.
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 1: That's my favorite. I love when the national anthem's acapella. Yeah,
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 1: so do I.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 2: And he does an amazing job every time. Because he's
• 1:10:03
  Speaker 2: got a beautiful voice. Don't get me wrong, and I'm
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 2: not trying to deny that whatsoever. His voice is amazing,
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 2: but when he steps back and you hear the whole crowd, oh,
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 2: my gosh, it gives me cold chills.
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 5: Sorry.
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 2: All right, let's talk about the U.K. basketball game. We
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 2: haven't gotten that yet. U.K., of course, it feels like
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 2: an eternity ago, but U.K. beat Texas Tech 76-65. Now,
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 2: in the exhibition game at Reparine on Friday night. But,
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 2: you know, it was an ugly start to a strong finish.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 2: The Wildcats missed their first eight three-pointers and turned it
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 2: over seven times. How do you like that for a start?
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 1: Woof.
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 2: But cleaned it up and only had four more turnovers
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 2: the rest of the game. So that was good. They
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 2: turned a 15-0 run. Tech led most of the first
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 2: half before the Wildcats went on a 15-0 run and
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 2: took a 33-25 lead to the half. Tech made it
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 2: close late, but they erased a 12-point deficit and tied
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 2: it with about eight and a half minutes left. But
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 2: Kentucky outscored the Red Raiders 24-13 the.
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 1: Rest of the way. What did you think about that
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 1: basketball game compared to the Little Rock game?
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 3: So, I didn't get to watch any of it due
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 3: to being on the call for the high school game. Oh,
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 3: that's right. The high school football fight. And when I
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 3: looked at the final score... That seems more indicative, I think,
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 3: of what you're going to get out of Kentucky this season. Like,
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 3: that was a great result. And you don't have to
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 3: worry about if JT Toppin played or not. I mean,
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 3: I don't know if the result changes if he does play.
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 3: But still, you're taking care of a team that's expected
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 3: to do some things this year as opposed to playing
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 3: a little rock where, eh, probably not.
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: Going to do anything, right?
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 1: So, aesthetically, it was a much better look than the
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 1: Little Rock. Well, the fun part.
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 2: Was, now you get a little taste of what it's
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 2: going to be like if the game is close and
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 2: who we're going to.
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 2: Because Momchilovic's dagger was that three-point shot he made with, what,
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 2: just under two minutes left. And that pretty much sealed
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 2: the game 73-63 and essentially ended the game.
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 1: But, I mean, it was.
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 2: The other part I really liked, it was a balanced
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 2: scoring effort. I mean, UK had five players in double figures,
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 2: of course, led by Mom Chilbit's 15 points and Malachi Moreno.
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 2: Free throws really decided it. UK outscored Texas Tech 19-5
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 2: at the line.
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 1: You got to like that.
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 2: And a bit of a backcourt story with Furman transfer
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 2: Alex Wilkins and Mason Williams running the backcourt. The Wildcats stabilized.
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 2: Pope even left Williams in to close the game instead
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 2: of starting point Zoom Diallo. How do you like that?
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 2: Because that's one of your players you picked right there.
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 2: It's pretty telling on what he thinks out of Mo Williams.
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 1: I know. Is it Mo? Mo? Mo Williams. Mason Williams. Mason. Yeah, Mason.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 1: Mo's the coach. Yeah.
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 2: But the only concern, though, was the rebounding. The Red
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 2: Raiders grabbed 16 offensive rebounds, 11 in the second half,
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 2: and one secondhand chess points by 15 to nine.
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 1: That's a little bit of a concern there. So- But anyway,
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 1: it's an exhibition game.
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 6: It is.
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 1: I know too much into it. Yeah.
• 1:13:38
  Speaker 2: But here's the other fact, which I found interesting. Kentucky's
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 2: all time exhibition record is now 157 to 13.
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 1: Whoa. Do we really care about that?
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 4: Why?
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 1: Anyway.
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 1: I don't really care. Yeah.
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 2: Well, every Pope himself warned about that a year ago.
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 2: If we make too much of this. And, of course,
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 2: you know, a year ago with Kentucky beat in Purdue.
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 3: Well, you also, you're playing three exhibition games now where
• 1:14:08
  Speaker 3: that's never been the case.
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 5: Right?
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, you play two at the most normally. Yeah. Yeah,
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: you're right. So, now we got one more. Is that right? So,
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 1: we played two. We got one more. I don't remember
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 1: what it is.
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 2: Now, here's the only disappointing part. I'm going to tell
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 2: you right now. And it wasn't... It wasn't UK basketball.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 2: It wasn't UK football. It was UK volleyball.
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 6: Oh.
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 1: What are we doing? Yeah. Loses at home to number
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 1: 19 Texas A & M. First team to sweep UK
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 1: this year at home, ending the nation's longest home court
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 1: win streak at 30 games. That was a bummer. That
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 1: was a bummer.
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 2: And, you know, I parked my car, and I was
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 2: waiting on the little golf cart to come pick me up,
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 2: take me to the stadium. Somebody started yelling at me,
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 2: Michael Bennett.
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 1: I turned around.
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 2: I couldn't see who was in the car yelling at me.
• 1:15:05
  Speaker 2: I got closer. It was Craig Skinner. Maybe he shouldn't
• 1:15:09
  Speaker 2: have been yelling at me. I was trying to take
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 2: credit for his contract, by the way. He wouldn't take it. So, anyway,
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 2: because I deserve a little commission for that. But, yeah,
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, it was UK lost back-to-back games for the
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 2: first time in SEC play since 2015.
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 1: Whoa.
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 2: So it was a bad weekend all around for volleyball, unfortunately. And,
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 2: of course, Friday night, UK faces Missouri at 7 o'clock,
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 2: and it's being.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 1: Televised on SEC Plus. So you can watch that. So, yeah,
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 1: it was just that. That was the only bad thing
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 1: this weekend. Well, maybe you should have went to it.
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 1: Maybe I should have. You think that would have made
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 1: a difference? Everything else you went through won, other than
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 1: your horse on Sunday. Yeah, so I had that yesterday.
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 1: And I wasn't kidding before. For my lunch, I had
• 1:15:55
  Speaker 1: deviled eggs and a fruit cup. The waitress looked at
• 1:15:59
  Speaker 1: me and said, that's an odd selection. I said, well,
• 1:16:01
  Speaker 1: that's what I want. Is that kind of like what
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: you like? I do.
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 2: I love, uh, Ed was talking about hard, bold eggs.
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 1: I love hard, bold eggs. Do you like them? I
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 1: love them. I love poached egg, hard, bold egg. And
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 1: I love deviled eggs. Only kind of eggs. I really
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 1: don't care much for scramble. Oh, really?
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 2: I don't really like the scrambled. If they're lightly scrambled,
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 2: I like mine runny. And then I put Tabasco sauce
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 2: on them. That's the way I love my eggs. But no,
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 2: I love, I love hard, bold eggs.
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 1: I do. I mean, if, if, I'm getting a salad
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 1: and there's hard-boiled eggs. Boom, I'm eating them. Yeah, same.
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, without a doubt. They're the greatest things in salad. But, no,
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 2: I'm all about that. What do you think about, did
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 2: you watch the video? There's nothing short of only describing
• 1:16:50
  Speaker 2: this as an epic meltdown of the New Mexico head
• 1:16:55
  Speaker 2: football coach. His name is Jason Eck. You didn't watch
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 2: it yet?
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 1: No. All right. All right. Let's do this. Let's go
• 1:17:03
  Speaker 1: ahead and take a break. I want you to watch
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 1: that meltdown. And I want you to talk about it
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 1: as soon as we get back. How do you spell ek?
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 1: I think it's E-L-K or E-C-K. I was about to say,
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 1: E-L-K is elk. Yeah, that would be elk. So I
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 1: think it's E-C-K. I can't read my own handwriting, but
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 1: I believe it's ek. E-C-K, Jason Egg. Just look up
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 1: New Mexico football head coach. I got it. And it'll
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 1: just go nuts. Yeah, we're going to talk about it
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 1: as soon as we get back.
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 2: And then we got some bad news for– as if
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 2: it wasn't bad news.
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 1: Enough for Otega. Oh, wait.
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 2: Now it's even worse. So we'll talk about that too.
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 2: So we got one more segment to go. Stay right there.
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 2: Don't go anywhere. But you can text me some more.
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 2: I'll get you your text as well as soon as
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 2: we get back on Just the Cats.
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 4: I've been since I lost you. And as far as
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 4: I can see, till you come back to me, I'll
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 4: be Kentucky blue.
• 1:18:05
  Speaker 1: To answer your question, no.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 5: Oh, the sun shines bright.
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 1: Oh, I like this. Yes, this is John Prine. Correct.
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 1: This is the best verse. I couldn't agree more. I
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 1: love John Prine. I hated this song. Really?
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 3: Until my first church or my first derby when everybody
• 1:18:39
  Speaker 3: was singing it together.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 1: Right. Oh, it was magical.
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 2: Oh, absolutely. I got to meet John Prine a few times.
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 2: He was good friends with one of my dad's closest friends.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 2: and he was the nicest guy and just he would
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 2: tell you because you know he tells stories by song
• 1:18:59
  Speaker 2: But then when he would talk to you, he'd tell
• 1:19:01
  Speaker 2: you stories, even more stories.
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 1: He was one of the most interesting people I've ever
• 1:19:05
  Speaker 1: met in my life. Guaranteed.
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 2: And I loved John Prine. He was just one of
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 2: the coolest guys. And I was so honored to get
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 2: to know him a little bit. I got to talk
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 2: about this because, you know, Ed was talking about how
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 2: the players are really receptive to a lot of the kids.
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 1: So there was a kid. So there's this Twitter account
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: called Bluegrass Sports Nation.
• 1:19:27
  Speaker 2: I'm not familiar with it. But I saw this video.
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 2: And it's the most heartwarming video. And I retweeted it out.
• 1:19:35
  Speaker 2: The most heartwarming video I've ever seen. And it's a
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 2: young man by the name of Caleb Breitz. who says
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 2: Willie Rodriguez is his favorite player on the team, you know,
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 2: the tight end. And you can see the young man
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 2: getting his autograph, and he's just so excited. And Caleb Breits,
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 2: I'm talking about you on the radio, because I think
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 2: this is the most heartwarming video I've ever seen, to
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 2: see him jumping up and down because he just got–
• 1:20:09
  Speaker 2: Willie Rodriguez autograph. And then Willie comes back and gets
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 2: a picture with him too. I mean, it is so
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 2: cool to see. I just, I love it.
• 1:20:18
  Speaker 1: And this is just one of these things, just another
• 1:20:20
  Speaker 1: example of how this team is hard not to like.
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 1: It really is.
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 2: So I'm going to say Caleb Breach, you get a
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 2: little attention today too, my friend.
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 1: Congratulations. But I'll tell you what, you're my hero, buddy.
• 1:20:35
  Speaker 1: You need a tissue over there?
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 8: I know.
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 1: I'm getting emotional. It's just, I know. It's just, it's
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 1: the sweetest thing. Go watch the video. I'm watching it.
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 1: I mean, it is the sweetest thing.
• 1:20:44
  Speaker 2: Are you, I mean, how can you not get a
• 1:20:46
  Speaker 2: little bit emotional watching that young man get so excited
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 2: meeting his favorite player?
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 1: It is so cool. It is cool. I mean, yeah,
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 1: I need a Kleenex. So there you go. Shut up.
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 1: Smart Alec. I can't help. I get emotional. I'm not changing.
• 1:20:59
  Speaker 1: You jerk. I did. I'm sitting here crying over this.
• 1:21:03
  Speaker 1: So stupid. Anyway, Michael Bennett's dumb sometimes. John here again.
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 2: Wow, after you guys talked about the Tyler Childress songs,
• 1:21:11
  Speaker 2: I get it for Kentucky football and Kentucky athletics. It's
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 2: a love song from the fans to the players, all
• 1:21:17
  Speaker 2: the Kentucky athletics. And memories made at games for all
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 2: the waiting and still loving no matter what. Now we
• 1:21:27
  Speaker 2: are together in winning ways and it is beautiful. This
• 1:21:29
  Speaker 2: love will never change no matter the circumstances. Yes, we
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 2: do say some crazy things at times, good or bad,
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 2: but we do it with love. I was listening to
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 2: that as I was working out. It is time to
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 2: get the championship trophies because here we come.
• 1:21:45
  Speaker 1: Oh boy. Yeah. Okay. Fine. I'm not going to say
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 1: anything else about that.
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 2: Michael, leave it alone. Is he telling me this again?
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 2: Everything is working right now.
• 1:21:57
  Speaker 1: Cats are winning. Environment is amazing.
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 6: Okay.
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 1: All right. I'll leave it alone. I just want a
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 1: better song. That's all. Okay. I'll leave it alone. Give
• 1:22:07
  Speaker 1: me somebody else to play.
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 2: Um, 48 Hanley said in keeping with my horse background,
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 2: Loretta Lynn and Crystal Gale are out of the same mail.
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh.
• 1:22:18
  Speaker 2: Uh, WI Mott sharpened, uh, the, the big horse, uh,
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 2: claws with a nice half mile move. He won't be
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 2: in the horse of the year discussion because he's a sprinter,
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 2: but Englishman is probably the best horse in the country.
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 1: Well, we got big, uh, big weekend.
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 5: Yes.
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Are you really? I'm so pumped. Yeah. I didn't really,
• 1:22:40
  Speaker 1: I didn't get into Breeders' Cup until like two, three
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 1: years ago.
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 3: But now knowing that every race is like a championship
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 3: race makes it so exciting.
• 1:22:49
  Speaker 1: It does. Oh, exactly.
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 2: That's the part. And, you know, I was out at
• 1:22:52
  Speaker 2: Churchill this morning at five o'clock. There were a couple
• 1:22:55
  Speaker 2: of Breeders' Horses that came out.
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 1: Really? On the track. Yeah. I thought that was pretty cool.
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: Was my boy Sovereignty there? I don't know. He might. Well,
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he'd be here or Keeneland. for that.
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 2: Louis Armstrong has a great jazz version of my old
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 2: Kentucky home. That isn't sad or depressing at all.
• 1:23:14
  Speaker 1: Huh? I didn't know that. I'd like to hear that one.
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 2: Remember when the exhibitions would be against athletes in action
• 1:23:21
  Speaker 2: or national teams like the USSR. I know comrade scoots
• 1:23:25
  Speaker 2: would be in the first row for that game. Uh,
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 2: Karashevo Dyna scoots, whatever that means. But, uh, uh, anyway,
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 2: the hell does that mean?
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Now I'm curious. I got to wipe
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 1: my eyes again.
• 1:23:39
  Speaker 2: Uh, y'all need to watch this week's SEC shorts video,
• 1:23:43
  Speaker 2: Halloween theme, big blue edition.
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 1: Okay. All right.
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 2: I'll go watch it, but I don't think those guys
• 1:23:48
  Speaker 2: are funny. Is it just me? I think they're kind
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 2: of goofy.
• 1:23:53
  Speaker 1: I don't know who it is. Oh yeah. It's, it's
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 1: these guys that do these SEC, uh, short little videos,
• 1:23:59
  Speaker 1: and they think they're funny. By the way, sovereignty isn't key. Oh,
• 1:24:03
  Speaker 1: it is? Okay. All right. Hey, Michael, how did your
• 1:24:05
  Speaker 1: horse do this weekend? Cosmic Creed ran yesterday. I'll put
• 1:24:13
  Speaker 1: it up on YouTube channel. So I have a YouTube
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 1: channel for Cinekill Stable, and you can go watch it.
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 1: But she did really well. I mean, she improved from
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 1: last time. Now she finished fourth.
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 2: But last time, her first time out, she finished seventh,
• 1:24:29
  Speaker 2: so she's getting better. But the one thing Dale Roman
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 2: said yesterday, there was a lot of speed in that race.
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 2: I mean, there was a lot. That was a heavily
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 2: talented field yesterday. I mean, Cherie DeVoe had a horse
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 2: in that one. Dallas Stewart had a horse in that one.
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 2: Bob Baffert had a horse in that race. I'm trying
• 1:24:47
  Speaker 2: to think who, I think Bill Mott. It was a
• 1:24:50
  Speaker 2: heavily talented field and I was very proud. She broke
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 2: out perfectly, was in second on the backside coming around
• 1:24:57
  Speaker 2: the turn. She got the, got the lead coming down
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 2: the stretch.
• 1:25:01
  Speaker 1: Same thing. She got tired. So, but it's okay. I'm
• 1:25:04
  Speaker 1: fourth place. I'm happy. So it, Long as she keeps
• 1:25:08
  Speaker 1: getting better, I'm.
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 2: Good with that. So she's a sweet horse, by the way.
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 2: After the race, Max and I went to the backside. And,
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 2: of course, she's just kissing all over Max.
• 1:25:16
  Speaker 1: She loves Max.
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 2: But anyway, my favorite rendition of my old Kentucky home
• 1:25:22
  Speaker 2: is by the late governor and baseball commissioner, Happy Chandler.
• 1:25:26
  Speaker 2: Stephen Foster also wrote Camp Town Races.
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 1: I didn't know that. Love Camp Town Races. So do I.
• 1:25:33
  Speaker 2: I didn't realize Stephen Foster wrote that. One person said, yes,
• 1:25:39
  Speaker 2: it's just you, Michael.
• 1:25:47
  Speaker 1: Thank you. I appreciate that. When somebody corrects me like that,
• 1:25:50
  Speaker 1: it makes me laugh. So, all right, let's talk about
• 1:25:53
  Speaker 1: the epic meltdown. New Mexico football head coach Jason Elk
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 1: getting into the face of his own player. So he
• 1:26:01
  Speaker 1: was over there talking to the officials because there was
• 1:26:04
  Speaker 1: a play where they were playing North Dakota State. And
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 1: his player got into the face of the North Dakota
• 1:26:13
  Speaker 1: State player quarterback after he threw an interception. And then
• 1:26:17
  Speaker 1: the North Dakota State quarterback threw him to the ground.
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 1: He's up in arms. Why didn't you throw a flag?
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 2: And so the referees are all meeting over there with
• 1:26:25
  Speaker 2: the head coach from New Mexico State. And he immediately
• 1:26:29
  Speaker 2: runs over to his player and starts chewing him out.
• 1:26:33
  Speaker 2: I mean, it almost looked like Chris Farley running over
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 2: towards that guy. It was the funniest thing. And I
• 1:26:40
  Speaker 2: kind of got to a point where I felt sorry
• 1:26:41
  Speaker 2: for his own player. But what did you think of
• 1:26:44
  Speaker 2: this video? So this dude's a loser.
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 1: Who is? Jason Eck.
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 5: Really?
• 1:26:50
  Speaker 3: I mean, there's no reason to act like that. And
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw this, but I guess
• 1:26:55
  Speaker 3: it was two weeks ago when they were playing Hawaii.
• 1:26:57
  Speaker 1: Oh, no, I did not see this. His team was
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 1: trailing 10 to 7. Yes.
• 1:27:02
  Speaker 3: With like 11 minutes left in the game. And they
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 3: have a championship belt that they use for turnovers. You know,
• 1:27:08
  Speaker 3: a lot of teams do that.
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 2: Like the basketball goal that LSU has that they don't
• 1:27:12
  Speaker 2: have the basketball.
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:27:14
  Speaker 3: So they're down 10-7 in the game. They force a
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 3: turnover to get the ball back. The defense is on
• 1:27:20
  Speaker 3: the sidelines going bananas. They're all celebrating with the championship belt.
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 1:27:27
  Speaker 3: And he comes over and he snags it from them,
• 1:27:30
  Speaker 3: yells at them, takes the belt from them.
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 1: Oh, come on.
• 1:27:32
  Speaker 3: And then he goes and tries to give it to
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 3: the defensive coordinator. So he's just, I don't know what
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 3: his end game.
• 1:27:39
  Speaker 1: Is, but he seems like a controlling loser. I don't
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 1: like that. Let them have their fun.
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 3: That's a big spot in the game, too.
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 1: You all got the ball back down three. They should
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 1: be celebrating. Yeah, that's demotivating is what that's doing. I
• 1:27:55
  Speaker 1: don't know.
• 1:27:57
  Speaker 2: He thought his player was in the wrong. I thought
• 1:27:59
  Speaker 2: it was a little over the top. But, I mean,
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 2: I do kind of respect it that he went straight
• 1:28:04
  Speaker 2: from the refs to really chew it. It just went
• 1:28:07
  Speaker 2: a little too hard on him. I mean, it really
• 1:28:10
  Speaker 2: was a little too much. All right, let's talk about
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 2: the bad news. Oklahoma Thunder, Otega Owe, who, you know,
• 1:28:19
  Speaker 2: injured his Achilles heel, is out for the season and
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 2: won't get to play this year, was waived by the
• 1:28:27
  Speaker 2: Oklahoma Thunder.
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 1: Really? Yeah. That's, that's. I mean, I guess it makes
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 1: sense if he can't play for a year, but. That's brutal.
• 1:28:36
  Speaker 1: That is brutal. I mean, you look at this, he's like,
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 1: he didn't enjoy. hurt himself.
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, my gosh, man. And because it was a
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 2: two-way contract, but yeah, they waived him. Now they could
• 1:28:47
  Speaker 2: pick him up.
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 1: And sign them with their G League affiliate. But, man,
• 1:28:53
  Speaker 1: that's just what a tough way. I mean, here you are.
• 1:28:56
  Speaker 2: You finally are getting ready to play in the NBA. Granted,
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 2: it's a two-way contract, but you have an injury, a
• 1:29:02
  Speaker 2: seizing ending injury, and then a week later you find
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 2: out you're no longer on the team.
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 3: Is OKC like the Kentucky version of the NBA?
• 1:29:11
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 1: What do you mean?
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 3: Because they had Jalen Williams, one of their best players.
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 3: He got a gruesome injury last night. Had to be
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 3: stretched off the court.
• 1:29:18
  Speaker 1: I see what you're saying. Man, it seems that way,
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 1: doesn't it? I mean, it just, ah.
• 1:29:24
  Speaker 2: I really feel for Otega now. Because he didn't, poor guy. Just, ah,
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 2: that's some really bad luck right there. So, anyway, one
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 2: texter said, Call her Cherie DeVoe, the voodoo queen of
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 2: Churchill Downs.
• 1:29:41
  Speaker 1: Oh, boy. It is spooky season. It definitely is.
• 1:29:45
  Speaker 2: They had the Headless Horsemen out there at Churchill Keeneland
• 1:29:48
  Speaker 2: on Saturday, and then they also had them yesterday at
• 1:29:51
  Speaker 2: Churchill Downs.
• 1:29:52
  Speaker 1: Do they do any sort of Halloween race? Oh, yeah.
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 1: Where the jockeys can just wear a costume? Oh, they
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 1: don't do that there. No.
• 1:29:59
  Speaker 2: But they had all the kids out there in Halloween
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 2: costumes yesterday.
• 1:30:02
  Speaker 1: It was fun. I mean, I love.
• 1:30:05
  Speaker 2: We're walking in, and I'm seeing this kid that has
• 1:30:07
  Speaker 2: hay coming out of his.
• 1:30:11
  Speaker 2: His shirt and his sleeves and under his hat. And
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 2: I'm like, what's going on? Cause he was a scarecrow, obviously.
• 1:30:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm thinking, Oh, then the mom has to
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 2: be John Mellencamp. I mean, rain on the scarecrow.
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 1: Come on, come on. They should have a Halloween race
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 1: where the jockeys dress up. That would be fun. Wouldn't it? Yeah.
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 1: I would enjoy that, but it's a serious race. You
• 1:30:31
  Speaker 1: can even dress the horses. If you wanted. No, that
• 1:30:34
  Speaker 1: would freak him out. You think so? Oh, I know.
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 1: So I did see a post.
• 1:30:38
  Speaker 3: Over the weekend real quick that a guy was he
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 3: was shaving a horse and like a painting, basically shaving
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 3: a picture onto it.
• 1:30:45
  Speaker 1: That was. Oh, really?
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 1: That's pretty cool.
• 1:30:47
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 2: They do that sometimes not shave a picture, but they
• 1:30:51
  Speaker 2: do little designs on their butt, which I think.
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 1: Is really cool. So. All right. We're going to take
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 1: off tomorrow. We'll get ready for it. It's a break
• 1:31:00
  Speaker 1: this week, so we'll talk a little bit maybe about
• 1:31:02
  Speaker 1: horse racing, but we're going to talk.
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 2: About UK constantly, so can't stop doing that. And, of course,
• 1:31:07
  Speaker 2: we got Nick Mangione coming on this week, too, so
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 2: we got to talk about that as well.
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 1: All right, everybody. Have a great day. Appreciate you listening.
• 1:31:13
  Speaker 1: We'll see you tomorrow on Just a Cast.
• 1:31:15
  Speaker 8: Just a Cast.
• 1:31:24
  Speaker 1: Where the young folks roll.
