  Speaker 1: Welcome to Just the Cats with Michael Bennett. Hello, Big
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Blue Nation.
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: Welcome to Just the Cats. My name is Michael Bennett
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: on this Tuesday, September 29th. I hope everybody's doing well today.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: Absolutely beautiful day outside, by the way. You know, a
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: little on the chilly side. It's clear, which makes it
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: even chillier. What the heck did I just say?
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: Chillier.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: But, anyway, that's the way my dad would talk. I
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: am not kidding. The older I get, the more I
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: sound exactly like my dad. So, anyway, Justin Kalen's with me,
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: which I'm very– I think I'm excited.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: Am I allowed to say what I want to say today, Justin,
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: just to make sure?
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: It's your show. Oh, okay. I'm just making sure now
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: because– I mean, when have I ever been able to
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: stop you in the past? Well, clearly you were the
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: other day. I'll tell you right now. I've been able
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: to stop you one time. My goodness. My goodness.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: Listen, I'm in Baltimore on Thursday, and you were kind
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: of giving me a hard time on Wednesday.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: We're not going to have our crosstalk. You'll be gone.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: It's like, you know what? I'm in a great mood
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: Thursday morning. I thought, here's what. Justin's probably struggling because
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: of the fact that he's got that entire show, Sunrise
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: with Scoots.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: Do you think I struggle? No, no, no, no. I
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: thought some days you do. You come in here and
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: tell me. I can't believe I got through that whole show.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: But I never struggle. I always get through it.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: Very true.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: But I thought, you know what? I'm going to do
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: you a favor. I'm going to call in. I'm in
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: a great mood. I'm on my way to Laurel Park.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: I'm going to go see some of the horses and
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: hang out with the trainer.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: You know what?
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: I got a few minutes. I think I'll call Justin. Well,
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: I call you.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: A million times. I didn't call you a million times.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: It was at least 20. It was not 20. Okay,
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: let's exaggerate just a little more. We can look up
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: on my phone and I can tell you exactly how
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: many times I call you. But I believe I called
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: four times.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: No way. Yes. There's no way it was only four. Really?
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: No way. I mean, my phone line was blinking for
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: 10 straight minutes.
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: Well, it wasn't me then for 10 straight minutes. I'll
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: tell you that right now. All right. So, yep, four times.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: So there you go. That's unbelievable. Yeah.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: So four times I called and I texted you. I said, hey,
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: let's do crosstalk. I miss it. And then you find Michael.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: Just say what you got to say. I got things
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: I need to discuss.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Exactly. It's like, oh, my. I didn't plan for crosstalk.
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Well, I think I'll hang up. I hung up. I said,
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: no problem. Sorry. Hung up.
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: And I'm dying laughing. I thought that was hilarious. The
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: way you reacted and the way I reacted back to you,
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: I thought was really funny. Well, you got nervous. You
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: texted me after your show, and instead of me replying
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: back to you, because you were kind of apologizing to me,
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: which I really appreciate.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: I felt bad. And you should have. And you ruined
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: my radio show, but I should be the one that
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: feels bad. And I'm like, Oh no, no, no. You
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: can't feel bad. So I called you. Cause I feel
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: like at that point you got to talk. You can't
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: be texting.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: And so I, I called you and I'm like, dude,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: I thought it was hilarious. I loved how you reacted me.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: And I loved how I reacted back to you. I just,
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: I enjoyed it. And then, I think I calmed you
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: down a little bit because you were kind of nervous.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: You didn't want to upset me. No, I never want
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: to upset anyone. You know how I am.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Exactly. I don't like controversy. Yeah, you definitely don't. If
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: somebody's mad at me, that's not a good feeling. No. No.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: It's not for me either. But there are times that
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: people get under my skin.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: Guess what?
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: I like to get back under their skin. I just
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: save it.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: And then I save it for that day. Oh, here's
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: the day I can get back. And then I savor it.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: I save and savor without a doubt.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: But no, no, no, no.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: With you, it's completely different. There's not a time that
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: you have really upset me at all.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Never.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: I mean, you freak out and then I feel bad
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: for you. It's like, oh, no, no, no, no. When
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: we have technical issues, when you forget, oh, my gosh,
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: I got to go. And we have blank air on
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: the radio. It's like, I'm not going to get upset
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: with you. And the way you reacted to the other day,
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: I thought.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: Was really funny. It did. It did come across very well.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: I went back and I listened to the end of
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: the episode. Yes. On Thursday night. And it was the
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: way it came across was really, really good. It was.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: It made for great radio.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: I'm glad to hear that because I enjoyed it. I'm
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: literally laughing for like three or four minutes. After I
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: hung up from you. And I thought, okay, that was
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: a lot of fun. And then my day went on
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: from there. But then when you text me, it's like, no,
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: I got to call you.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Well, the frustrating part is I had mentioned it on
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: air several times. Whoever's calling, stop calling. I can't take
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: calls doing this show. And you just kept calling. That's
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: why I was like a volcano. It just eventually all exploded. Oh,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: my gosh. You blew up at me. It's okay. So, anyway.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: And I will again if you ever pull a stunt
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: like that in the future.
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: Oh, come on now. But, no, I had a fun-filled
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: few days. And so, anytime I'm around horses, I'm really happy.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: And I've got a couple. One is getting ready to race. Uh,
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: are you ready for this?
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: He's going to make his debut. So this is a,
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: a horse, a beautiful horse. It's a gray horse.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: Okay. Okay.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: And Horacio deposit really likes it. He goes, Michael, if
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: he does as well as I think we'll, we'll sell
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: them to, um, uh, the, the barstool, uh, sports guy.
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: Cause you know, he's got that, uh, what's his name
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: dave portnoy portnoy has that uh his own racing deal
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: where it's just uh gray horses.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: Is that the guy though that we want in charge
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: of a horse stable why not i don't know i'm
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: not a portnoy.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: I think it's gopher grays or something like that and
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: he only buys gray horses i think it's a dumb move.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: I mean it does seem dumb but just think of
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: all the people that bet on oh absolutely so he's
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: He's going to get a ton of money coming in
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: on his horse.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: It's a gimmick, and it's probably a gimmick that will
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: work because of that. But if you really want to
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: go win, yeah, you're not going to win with a
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: gray every single time. I wonder if he feeds them
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: some of the pizza he buys. Ugh.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Can you imagine?
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: I used to give one of my horses beer.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Okay. And they loved beer. I had a dog that
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: loved beer. Oh, really? Yeah.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: He also, you could not say the word. This is
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: a horse named Scrum. My all-time favorite horse. Big, beautiful, 17'1, 17'2,
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: hand horse.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: So he's big.
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: You could not say the word banana around him because
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: he would freak out. He loved bananas so much. I mean,
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: you just had to, hey, we're... Mason, where's that thing?
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: And that's what you would have to say. Because as
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: soon as you said banana, he would just go nuts
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: because he knew he was getting ready to have his
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: favorite food.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: That's how my dog is with the word play. Can't
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: say play. Oh, you cannot say play? He will freak
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: out every time. Like, yeah, we're going to play. Oh,
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: my gosh. That's funny. He starts doing circles in the house. Yeah,
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: it's crazy.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: All right, I got to ask, how did John Wong do?
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: Great.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: I thought he did a tremendous job. Did he?
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Okay, good. We stayed on topic for the most part.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: He on Friday was very nervous about the whole Trevor
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: Kelsey experience like you were. a couple months ago, but
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: it was great radio. I thought they did a tremendous
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: job together, so that was fun to listen to on
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: the way to Solceria's Friday. Yeah. So that was a
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: good time. But yeah, we had some fun.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: Did he go off topic with Trevor?
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: I'm just curious. Oh, very much.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: I didn't have a.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: There is... Nobody alive on planet Earth that could have
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: a conversation with Trevor on the radio and it doesn't
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: go off the rails.
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: I worry on radio Trevor and I are a little
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: too much alike. I worry off radio that we are
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: way far. We're solar planets away from each other. We
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: both have squirrel brains.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, completely.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: And I love it. So, is he coming to.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: To... replace you again anytime soon oh you want him
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: to no that's not what i'm saying no no no
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: i'll get him i'll get him in for the second
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: hour today you would say that he's a big cory
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: price guy he would he would enjoy the hell out of.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: It he's a big cory price guy he loves cory
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: no we can't do that because then we all three
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: of us would go way off no we can't we
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: can't do that but i'm glad john did well uh
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: i got to listen to a few minutes of it
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: but i i was running the entire time literally running
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: the entire time so driving all over the state of Maryland.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: So it was a lot of fun. Were you running
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: or driving? I was driving. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: No, I went to three different farms, one racetrack. I
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: was tempted. I had a little time one day, and
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: I thought, let's drive to Pimlico and see what it
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: looks like, get a little update on what it looks
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: like so far. And I'm like, yeah, I'm not driving
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: that far.
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Oh, you didn't do it? No, I didn't.
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: But I did drive to Annapolis to have dinner at
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: one of my favorite restaurants. It's a hole-in-the-wall crab shack.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: And got whole crabs.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Blue crabs. Oh, yeah.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: Because if you've never, have you ever gotten whole crab
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: before and peeled the meat out yourself and all that stuff?
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we. It's work. I had a buddy who, his
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: dad lived in Crystal River, Florida. Oh, yeah, sure. I
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: know exactly where Crystal River is. We would, so we
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: went out on the ocean and we were fishing all day. Well,
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: we got caught up in a low tide at one point.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: And there was this little island in the middle of
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: the ocean and there was all these. blue crabs oh
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: that's awesome so we we got out and we scooped
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: three or four of them up cooked them for dinner
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: that night yeah it was you're right it was a
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: lot of work to get three or four that's not
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: enough I mean, they were pretty decent size. They were? Okay.
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: I mean, we couldn't find many more than that. And
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: it was shallow water. My buddy was scared. The shark's
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: going to come. I wasn't scared at all. I was
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: out there to get my crab. But eventually, we had
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: to call it because he was being a baby.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: You can't look at going in water like that and
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: thinking they're a shark.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: I agree. You just can't. I agree.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: The sharkers are just as scared of you as you
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: are of them.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Exactly. Well, and then we got the bottom of the
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: boat caught up on the bottom of the ocean because
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: the tide was so low. So we had to get
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: out and literally walk the boat off of the low tide. Oh,
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: that's fine. And he was freaking out the whole time. Really?
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: The whole time. Okay. That guy's got to just get
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: over himself. Like, it's a shark, dude. It's fine. Exactly.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: If it bites your leg, it's a cool story to tell. Exactly.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: I mean, the women will be flocking towards them. So anyway,
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: but all right. UK beat South Alabama. We're not going
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: to get too much into it because I know John
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: and you probably got into it a little deeper yesterday.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: I looked at it as a really ugly first half.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: And what the telling story to me is how did
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: they come out? and play the second half. And that's
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: all I needed to know. I understand that you just
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: wish it wouldn't happen. You could tell. Will Stein was
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: really upset. He didn't want much to do with the
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: stupid interview at halftime or after the game. After the game,
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: I thought it was even more telling. Were you happy
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: with how your team... No, I wasn't at all. And
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: it's just like... But the positive part is that they...
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: changed their play the second half and they did what
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: they need to do and be because every time I
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: looked at the game it was like USA who's USA
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: it's like oh University of South Alabama I just thought
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: they'd put South Bama or something South Allah or something
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: like that but they'd put USA up there.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: I liked it you did I honestly though as a
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Kentucky fan If I were one, that would have been
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: really tough for me because I don't want to beat
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: the USA. It's my country. Are you kidding? I want
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: to blow them out. It's my country.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: No, I'm a UK fan. I want to blow USA out.
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: No.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: They're losers. They're not going to be able to beat UK. No,
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: I want to beat them to a pulp. By the way,
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: if you had to put an over-under number on Will Stein...
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: F-bombs at halftime. What would you set that at? Can
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: I say the first number that came in my head
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: was 40. I feel like that's probably a really solid number.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: Do you really? Yeah. I would likely take the over. Oh,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: you would? Absolutely. You think it's more than 40? I mean,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: just look back to his pregame speech against Texas A
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: & M. Yeah. I mean, it was every other word.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: It really was. And now his team's beating South Alabama
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: by three at halftime.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: You know what? You probably are right. I mean, what
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: are you putting the over under at?
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: No, I think you were right about where I was thinking. Okay.
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: About 40-ish.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: So if you said 40 and you bet over, so
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: what are you going to say then as far as
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: what the real number is?
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: I would say probably like 47.
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: Okay, so not much more over the 40.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: No.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: Man, you were right. That's his– is that his favorite word?
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: It has to be. It has to be. I love it.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: But that's what– so Dr. John and I were talking
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: about it, and, like, that's a good thing, though, right?
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: Because when you're looking at your head coach, you don't
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: want them to be something they're not. You want them
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: to be exactly who they are, and that seems like
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: exactly who Will Stein is, and I've got no problem
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: with that. Yeah. I mean– It's just one of those
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: words I can't stand. I know it probably is like, oh,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: come on, Michael. I don't know.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: I've got buddies that use that word all the time.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, when I'm not on air, that's one of
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: my favorite words. I don't know how you do it.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: I don't either.
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: As you know, I'm not much of a cusser. Uh,
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: but you, you tend to, and I can't imagine if
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: I was a customer, I think I would be using
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: all right.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know. It's weird. I can just flip a switch.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Can you really?
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: I remember years ago when I first started, started doing
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: this radio show, I think I've mentioned it before. Howard
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: Schnellenberger came on and every time I turned around, he
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: was using the poop word.
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: Shoot.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: He was saying shoot with the other way.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: And, uh, and you know, the, uh, Shannon kept saying,
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: did he just say, I'm like, yeah, where's the dump button?
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: I mean, Howard Schnell and coach Nellenberg kept saying it.
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: I'm like, oh my gosh, man, you didn't tell him
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: at any point. Hey, you can't say that.
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: No, I listen. This is Howard Schnellenberger. I'm not telling
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: him anything. That's a good point.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: He is doing what there are a few people that
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: came on this show. over time that I would never
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: dictate how you can or cannot talk. Howard Schnellenberg was
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: number one. Denny Crum was number two. I would say
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: Joby Hall, not much of a cusser, but I would
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: never tell him how to talk on the radio.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Sure.
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: And of course, all the coaches after that, UK coaches.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: I just never would. Now, Players, other guests, yeah, definitely would.
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: I would dictate, come on, dude, you can't be talking
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: like that. But I didn't have any issues with anybody else.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: Rich Brooks, you think I would look at Rich Brooks
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: and say, hey, coach, you can't say that. No, I
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: am never saying anything like that to him. Flames would
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: be coming out of his eyeballs if I said something
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: to him, and he would burn right through me.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: So, yeah, no. Fair enough. He was the most intimidating
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: guy I've ever had on the show. Really? Yes, and
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: I loved it. He really was.
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: You get him going on one particular topic, and that
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: would be former losses. He would just burn. You could
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: tell it's like it happened just 20 minutes ago. That's
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: how quickly he would get mad. I loved it. Listen,
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: he was the kind of coach that I would do
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: anything for.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: He really was.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: And, uh, if I, if I had a chance to
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: have him back on, I probably should ask. The problem is,
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: you know, he lives out in, um, Oregon now. And
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: he has, uh, for the last, I don't know, 10
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: or 15 years. I just, uh, the time change. So
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: we would have to do it. We'll record it unless
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: he's over here in Kentucky or something like that. Then
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: we'd be able to do it live. But, uh, yeah,
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: it's just one of those things.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: Uh, UK is facing South Carolina next. I want to
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: talk about that when we, uh, Come back from the
• 16:45
  Speaker 2: break because, as we all know, there's a particular player
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: that's not going to be at the game. But anyway,
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: we'll talk about that as soon as we get back.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: If you want to give us a call, 502-384-1450.
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: 502-414-1450.
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: You want to text on the Whiskey Thief text line,
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: you tweet me at JustCatRio. That was the other part.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: When I was calling you, I kept thinking, okay, is
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: this the number? As much as I say the number
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: all the time, as soon as you had to physically
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: go dial it, I questioned myself.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: I get it. I was like, I can't think of
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: the number. You do? Okay, good.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: I thought, okay, this is a moment of dementia right now.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: I'm going down that course.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: So, anyway. We'll take a break. Stay right there.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: A lot more of Just the Cats coming right up.
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: 502-384-1450.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: I'd like to hear this song, but it's just got
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: one of those long intros.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: That's a nice song right there. There was like four
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: different sounds coming out. Oh, really? Yeah, that was crazy.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: That's awesome. Okay. Do you know who that is? I
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: don't know who that is. Who is it? The Raconteurs.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: Is that even how you pronounce it? I don't know.
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: I've never heard of them. The Raconteurs. I just like
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: hearing you say that. Say it one more time. The Raconteurs.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: Sounds crazy the way you're saying it. I'm sure that's
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: not how it's pronounced. You know what?
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: That's the best part. I hope it's not the way
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: you say it. I kind of like the way you do.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: It's kind of like high pinky right there, Justin.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Like in two. Exactly. And the way you say it
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: is you put your pinky really high. Absolutely, yeah.
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, as you're drinking your high tea. But that just
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: makes me happy right there.
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: 502-414-1450.
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: You want to text on the Whiskey Thief text line.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: We'll get to that real quick.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: John here.
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: First off, glad to hear you back, Michael. Also, I
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: am excited we got Crosstalk back.
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: No kidding. So you just played me.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, John. I'll get back to your text a bit.
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: You just played me your show last Thursday. Was it
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: Thursday or Friday?
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: It was Thursday. Okay.
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: And the way we had interacted with each other I
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: loved it I mean, in real time, you felt bad.
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: And I love the fact that you admitted you felt
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: bad on air. But in real time, I'm off the
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: phone driving my car, dying laughing. And you think my
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: feelings are hurting. I'm upset. And I just, I like, no,
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: that's where I feel bad for you. You should never
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: feel that way. I don't anymore, for what it's worth.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: Well, good. I'm glad you don't.
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: But I hope you get to a point that you
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: never feel bad and you know that I was just
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: having fun with it. It's like Caitlin Clark said last week, Michael.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: I'm not a robot. I have emotions.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: Oh, geez. Yeah. Yeah, except no one's watching. Well, they
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: probably watch. It's playoffs. People are watching now. You think so? Yeah.
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: You think they're watching? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Okay.
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: Well, congratulations. You're watching it, aren't you? I haven't yet,
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: but I'll probably tune in a little tonight. And that's
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: the best part about you. You like watching some women's basketball.
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: I like watching sports in general. Yeah.
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: No offense.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: I won't watch any of it. And that's not because
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: it's women's. I really don't watch men's. Now I watch
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: a little bit of the NBA. I have become disinterested
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: more in NBA basketball.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: Just pro basketball in general. Yeah, yeah. I get that.
• 21:11
  Speaker 2: And now I still very much watch NFL, and I
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: very much watch. I'm really excited about Major League Baseball,
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: the playoffs. And you know why I am, because my
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: team's the best in the AL.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: That's not going to end up mattering. It's not. Really,
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: it's not going to. National League's so tough. Yeah. Whoever
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: comes out of that is going to be such a
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: tough out.
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: Well, the Rays are going to have to play either
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: the Red Sox or the Yankees, right?
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, correct.
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: So they're going to lose to that anyway. And I'm like, okay, well,
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: that was fun. Here we won all AL, number one
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: team in all AL, and we're going to lose in
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: the first series.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: Do you like that? Do you think? No, I don't
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: like it. I don't like how they use the bracket
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: in the MLB playoffs. No, it's terrible. So if the
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: Rays are the one seed. Yeah. They should get to
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: play whoever the lowest seed is. The easiest seed.
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: That's the whole point of working really hard throughout the
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: season to become the number one team. Now you're penalizing
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: them being the number one team.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: Correct.
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: So you're encouraging teams to lose games so that they
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: are not the number one team. I think it's just
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: whoever came up with that idea is the dumbest idea
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: in the world.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: I agree. Okay, good.
• 22:20
  Speaker 2: Coach Pope is happy with what we have, but is
• 22:23
  Speaker 2: still willing to add if the piece is a fit.
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: I still can't believe our football cats are still the
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: underdog going into South Carolina. In the words of Rodney Dangerfield,
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: we get no respect, I tell you. So, and John,
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: you're absolutely correct. You gave me a whole mouthful right there.
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: just with those two things let me get through the
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: text and then we'll talk about those things because you're
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: absolutely correct I the whole media day yesterday I thought
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: was kind of odd and I'll I'll explain to you
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: more why in just a bit but and then I
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: do not understand UK football ranking at all but we'll
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: talk about that more too in just a minute uh
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: buzz texted in um Don't feel bad, Michael. Justin ignores
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: my calls frequently.
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: He's probably not wrong. Really? You ignore Buzz's phone calls?
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: It's never intentional, but a lot of times when I'm
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: doing Spears, I'm preoccupied with other things. I'm not always
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: keeping my eye on the phone line. I'm sure there's
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: been plenty of times where Buzz has called that I
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: didn't answer. But I always encourage people, if you call
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: and you don't get an answer... Just call back. Do
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: like Michael did. Call a million times in a row.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: I did not call a million times. Now you are
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: irritating me.
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: Let's start with South Carolina.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: Let's see.
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: You want to start with South Carolina football. You want
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: to start with UK ranking.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: The whole South Carolina game has me more intrigued because
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: I agree with John. I don't understand football. why they're
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: the underdog, it doesn't make any bit of sense to me.
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: You're talking, yeah, UK.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: UK's the underdog by three and a half, which isn't
• 24:12
  Speaker 2: very much, but I don't get it either other than.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: I'm betting on them right now. Are you really? You're
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: betting on UK?
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because it just doesn't make any sense. See, that
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: makes me nervous now. They're going to lose. All right,
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: just because the fact that you're fighting for UK makes
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: me like, oh, crap, man. Because I'll tell you right now.
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: UK should win this game, but I feel like they won't.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: Does that make sense? I mean, I guess if you
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: break it down a little further why you think they won't.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: All right.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: They look good against Youngstown. UK look good in the
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: first half against Alabama. The second half of Alabama is
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: what bothers me the most. Yeah, but Alabama's now a
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: top 10 team.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: You are correct. And they just smacked South Carolina. Boy,
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: did they ever.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: But South Carolina's not very good. So is UK good?
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: So the other question I have, do you believe that
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: Texas A & M is.
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: A good team?
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: Because now they're completely out of the top 25.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think it's becoming more and more
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: clear with them that maybe they were a little too
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: highly ranked to begin the season. Yes.
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: But I don't think they're a bad team. Because I've
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: never seen so many. Now, granted, there are always a
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: lot of people that criticize the rankings. Now you've got
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: the Miami coach saying, well, we shouldn't have any rankings
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: until halfway.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: Through the season.
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: Well, the reason you want that is because that helps
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: you in your easy conference. The reason we don't want
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: it is because we play difficult games in the SEC,
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: and as a former coach used to say that is
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: now with another team just down the street, we play
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: big boy football. Listen, Miami coach, what's his name, by
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: the way? Mario Cristobal?
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Cristobal.
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: I said, dude, you need to settle down because you're
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: wrong about this. I would like to see Miami play
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: an SEC conference schedule. Or a Big Ten, for that fact.
• 26:25
  Speaker 2: I don't want to just be SEC all the way.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: I want to see these ACC teams play either one
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: of those conferences, a full schedule, and see how they do.
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: Because I guarantee you, they would be maybe one game
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: above 500.
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: Maybe.
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: Maybe.
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: You look at UofL, and I am going to criticize. Listen,
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: one of my closest friends is a coach there. And
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: I really, I've become friends with Jeff Brom. I like
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: Jeff Brom. I think he's a great coach. But you
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: can't lose to Wake Forest and expect to be a
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: playoff team. I mean, what is going on over there?
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: Every single year, UofL loses to a team they should
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: never lose to.
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: It's true.
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: I think the other problem is I was watching game
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: day on Saturday.
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: What? Yeah, I was. It was a mistake. I realized
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: after five minutes of watching.
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: But, you know, they started interviewing pregame the UofL quarterback.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: And I just got an icky feeling from him. I
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: just felt like there was so much attitude there. He
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: was a little too cocky for me.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 27:38
  Speaker 2: And then to go out there and have a blow-up
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: game like they did and lose. That told me everything
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: I needed to know. I just don't think he's that
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: great a quarterback. I don't think he's that good of
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: a quarterback. And I feel the same way about Chambliss.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: I've said this before. I said it after the U
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: of L game.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: I don't think.
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: Shambles is a Heisman Trophy quarterback or player.
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't either.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: And now I think that even more. I mean, good Lord.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: John Summerall has it going on the floor. I am now,
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: forget about South Carolina. I thought Florida would be kind
• 28:11
  Speaker 2: of a game that UK has a shot at. I'm
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: even more nervous about Florida. I don't care if it's
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: in Gainesville or Lexington. Of course, it's going to be
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: in Lexington at Commonwealth Stadium. But that's a game I'm
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: even more nervous. I'm going everywhere right now. There are
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: so many things to talk about after this weekend. I
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: was sorry I missed yesterday. But I just feel like, man,
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: John Summerall in just three games has it going on
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: at Florida. Now, granted, Will Stein after three games. Is
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: it three games or four games?
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: Four.
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: Okay, I'm sorry, four games. Has it going on in Kentucky?
• 28:49
  Speaker 2: Did you ever dream that UK at this point would
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: be 3-1, and I think it's the fastest, isn't it,
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: that UK has ever gotten ranked before when a new
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: coach came in?
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: I believe so, yeah. Yeah. I thought they'd be 2-2
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: at this point. 2-2? Yeah.
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: So, beating South Alabama and Youngstown State. I'm with you
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: right there.
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: And I thought the other two games would be absolute blowouts.
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: Now, here's what I brought up yesterday with John in
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: regards to that South Carolina game. Yeah. Remember the whole
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: quote from John Summerall last week about there's some good
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: drugs out there? Yeah.
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: When he found out his team was favored? Yes. And
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: on paper, it didn't make any sense because Ole Miss
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: had just knocked off LSU. Right. That's my concern with
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: the South Carolina game. Why?
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: The line is down to two and a half for
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: what it's worth, but why are they favored? What does
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: Vegas know that we don't? That game just has me
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: feeling a lot like I felt with the Florida Ole Miss.
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: This is desperation for Shane Beamer. He's got to pull
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: out all the stops because if he loses this game, he.
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: Loses his job. Yeah, but doesn't he seem like the
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: type of coach that when he's got pressure like that,
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: he's going to fold? Really? I don't think he's shown
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: the ability when he's faced with something like this to
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: rise up and get past it. I don't know.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: And then you got the whole situation with their edge,
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: Dylan Stewart, who's now– I don't know what's going on
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: with him because Shane Beamer or the South Carolina football
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: program said he is– how did they say it? He
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: is suspended indefinitely.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: Well, now they did come out and say yesterday that
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: the SEC and– South Carolina gave him a one game. Exactly.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: So which is it? Is it one game or is
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: it indefinitely?
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: One game. Well, it still says that South Carolina says indefinitely. Well,
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm sure moving forward, it's going to be contentious.
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: You'll probably hold him out a lot of snaps moving forward.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know what they end up doing, but I
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: do believe he's only going to not play one game.
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: You know he is a top 10 draft, potentially a
• 30:55
  Speaker 2: top 10 draft pick in the NFL. Is he ruining
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: his draft stock? Maybe a little bit, but I mean,
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: I don't know. If you play clean football the rest
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: of the year, just go out there and play. Don't
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: punch anybody, and you should be drafted where you deserve.
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: I do want to talk about this for a second
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: because there's two things that really irritate me. Number one,
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: why does a football player hit another football player that's
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: wearing a helmet?
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: That's really dumb. It really is.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: It's like, what do you think you're going to accomplish?
• 31:26
  Speaker 2: You're only going to hurt yourself more than you're going
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: to hurt that player. The other part is everybody seems
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: to be only showing the clip of him hitting the
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: Alabama player. If you watch the entire clip of what
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: really transpired, you can see the Alabama players laying on him.
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: and then slowly getting up and taunting him the entire time.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: So to me, not only should, and Dylan Stewart deserves
• 31:58
  Speaker 2: what he's getting, but I think you need to go
• 32:00
  Speaker 2: back to SEC and look at what the Alabama player
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: was doing too, and maybe reconsider, maybe the officials should
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: have called personal foul on him as well for taunting
• 32:11
  Speaker 2: i mean granted he didn't hit him yeah.
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: If all he's doing is talking like you're you're not
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: gonna ever know what he said.
• 32:16
  Speaker 2: That's unsportsmanlike though and when you're taunting that's unsportsmanlike but.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: Don't you as a 2021 however old steward is shouldn't
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: you be mature enough at this point to handle your
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: emotions and not lash out with a full-on punch I mean,
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: come on, man. We're not 14 anymore.
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: I get it, but when you're getting beat and you're
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: all charged up about playing Alabama, then you just got
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: manhandled by one of their players, and you don't know
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: what he's saying, Justin. But he might have said some
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: things that he didn't like, and I can see myself,
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: my emotions getting the best of me.
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: I mean, if he's out there talking about my mom
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: or something, yeah, I'll maybe lash out on him, but
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: if it's just... football talk, oh, you suck, oh, you're
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: all getting beat, then, yeah, you got to control your emotions.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: You're right.
• 33:02
  Speaker 2: You are absolutely right because now every player out there
• 33:06
  Speaker 2: knows that they can get to that guy.
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: That's the mistake right there. So now it's going to
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: follow him not only the rest of the season in college,
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: it's going to follow him in the NFL too. So
• 33:16
  Speaker 2: as soon as he starts having a really good game
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: in the NFL, guess what? The other team's going to
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: know exactly what to do. Hey, dude, just talk to him.
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: You talk to him until he just blows up. And somehow, someway,
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: he's got to figure a way to keep those emotions inside.
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: And it's really a shame. But I'm just telling you,
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: watch the whole clip and you see the Alabama. The
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: Alabama player should have been called for a penalty as well.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: But anyway, let's take another break. We'll talk about more
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: South Carolina. Plus, we're going to talk about basketball. I
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: promise we're going to talk about basketball. But just let's
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: talk about the football for a second yet, and we'll
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: get to the basketball in a minute. But stay right there.
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: More Just the Cats.
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: Coming right up. What are you doing? You turned it down.
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: Just for one part. Oh, sorry about that. Okay. I
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: had a word that is not radio appropriate. How did
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: you know that? Because I'm watching the... I always pull
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: up the lyric videos. Oh, okay. So that way if
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: a word is coming, I can typically see it coming
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: and know when to pull it down. Which word was it?
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: I don't feel like saying. Okay. Just say one letter.
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: It was the F word, but it wasn't the traditional F.
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: It wasn't Will Stein's F word. Oh, really? Yeah. Huh. Okay.
• 35:29
  Speaker 2: I don't know what you're talking about then. So I
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: have to go back and listen to that song now.
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: Rhymes with nags. Bag? Just say bag. There you go.
• 35:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: Okay. There you go. All right. That's a canceled word.
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: Is that right?
• 35:43
  Speaker 3: It is?
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Okay. All right then. Very canceled. Too many canceled words.
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: I mean, people are soft today. There's a reason for
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: some of them being canceled. Yeah, but people are soft today.
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: Like the R word. There's no need for the R word.
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: The R word? Yeah. I don't even know what the
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: R word is. I'll let you know.
• 35:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm getting a whole education now. This is killing me.
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: I won't be able to concentrate this last segment because
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to figure what the R word is. Anyway,
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: somebody text me what the R word is, please, so
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: I can just figure it out. But anyway, so is
• 36:13
  Speaker 2: one game suspension for Dylan Stewart of South Carolina enough
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: for what he did for hitting? A lot of people
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: are going nuts saying it's not even one. One game
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: is not enough. I'm fine with it.
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: Are you? I mean, it's football. Emotions get the best
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: of guys all the time. This is not the first
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: incident of something like this that we've seen. So, yeah,
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: I've got no problems.
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: See, that's the other part that bothers me.
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 36:35
  Speaker 2: They lost one of their best players. And what's that?
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: Is the entire team going to rally around and be
• 36:44
  Speaker 2: able to play better than they usually do and then
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: be able to beat Kentucky? Listen, all the stuff comes
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: up because I firmly believe Kentucky is a better team
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: than South Carolina. But just like I truly believe LSU
• 37:01
  Speaker 2: is better than Ole Miss. But the team rallied around
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: to beat their old coach. They weren't wanting to beat LSU.
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: Ole Miss only wanted to beat Lane Kiffin.
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: That's true.
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: And I think that's true. So, anyway, I just– we'll
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: see what happens. But I thought one of the wildest things,
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you saw it or not, what
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: was the coach? Was it Minnesota where the coach– wiped
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: the blood of one of his players after the game
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: and then wiped it on his cheeks. Did you talk
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: about that? I didn't, but that was, Holy cow.
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: Really, really gross. Okay.
• 37:44
  Speaker 2: It was gross, but don't you want, if you're a player,
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: don't you want to coach like that? That was, that
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: to me was awesome, but it was gross now. And
• 37:55
  Speaker 2: then he, all the other players come up and shake
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: his hand. He's got the blood on his hands. It's like, okay, dude,
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: I'm getting tested now. Yeah, I mean, it's not a
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: move that I would have made. Let me put it
• 38:04
  Speaker 2: that way. I thought that is my football coach. Wipes
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: the blood off the mouth of one of his players
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: and then wipes it on his cheeks was one of
• 38:17
  Speaker 2: the most football moments ever. And I guarantee you, that's
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: going to be a meme that's going to be out
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: there for a long time, used all the time.
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, without a doubt. So I loved it. I'm sorry
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: you thought it was just gross.
• 38:30
  Speaker 1: I mean, it was. It was gross, but come on. Jeez.
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: One texter said, hey, Michael, a mess at UofL. There
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: is so much anger towards Jeff Brom and his family.
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: Great to be a UK fan. Awfully nice of Vince
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: to send a text in this morning.
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: I can't believe you said that. Is there anger towards
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: his family, too?
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: I mean, I think... I don't know if anger towards
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: the family is the right way to put it, but
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: I think definitely... Lack of patience with the family.
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: What do you mean with the family? Oh, you mean
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: his brother?
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: I would assume so. Not his wife and kids. Yeah. Okay.
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: That's the way I took that. I would say just
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: the guys that are on the coaching staff. Okay. You
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: know what? And I can understand that.
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: It is frustrating because, you know, you've been sold a
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: bill of goods and you're excited about what's going to happen.
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: You've got a fairly simple schedule. You're not facing the
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: powers that be in the ACC. Miami unless you're in
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: the championship game, which it doesn't look like they're going
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: to be now. You lose to Ole Miss in a
• 39:35
  Speaker 2: close game. You feel some excitement there. And I don't
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: blame them to feel some excitement there. And then you
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: beat SMU, who potentially is one of the top teams
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: in the ACC, and you lose to Wake Forest. I
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: do think Wake is better than people are going to
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: give them credit for.
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: Really? For what it's worth. By the way, Texter, it's A-E-L. Okay?
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: So, M-I-C-H-A-E-L. People do that a lot. We'll spell my
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: name with an E-A-L. But, yeah, just spell it alphabetically.
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: Mikial. Mikial? Ooh. Mikial. No, that's terrible. Mikial.
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: No, that's enough. I'm just going to call you Just, okay?
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: So.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: Scoots is just like the popular girl in high school
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: that didn't want to answer the phone right away because
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: he's playing hard to get.
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: That's right. There you go. That's exactly you in a nutshell. Basically.
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: Playing hard to get.
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: Kids today don't realize how easy they have it compared
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: to when we had to go through the parents and make.
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: I don't think he's saying this right. I just don't
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: think you're reading it right.
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: All right. Let me start over.
• 40:44
  Speaker 2: Kids today don't realize how easy they have it compared
• 40:47
  Speaker 2: to when we had to go through the parents and
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: make small talk before getting to talk to the girl
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: we had a crush on.
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: Hmm. He's not wrong. Did you go through the parents first? Yeah.
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, you didn't really have a choice, right? You
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: had to. call the house phone talk yeah i mean
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: you had to call the house phone then when you
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: went and picked her up yeah you oh for when
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: you first go out yeah mom and dad weren't just
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: gonna let you sit there and take her no they
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: had to have a little conversation oh absolutely but now
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: you can text anybody you want yeah i listen i
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: am i that was one of my best moves if
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: you thought i was a great recruiter or could potentially
• 41:29
  Speaker 1: be one that i would have been a great By
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: the way, because the couch talk, I was awesome at, okay?
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: Just to let you know. Make it so you make it.
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: I don't know if I was necessarily faking it. I
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: was trying to be as nice as I could. For
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: the most part, every girl that I went out with,
• 41:47
  Speaker 2: I liked their mom and dad.
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: I think the same is true for me, too. It is? Yeah.
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: I mean, there was probably one dad that he didn't
• 41:57
  Speaker 2: much care for me, and honestly, I didn't much care
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: for him.
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: Honestly, I was at a point in my life at
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: that age. I mean, the last girlfriend I had was
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: like 15 years ago, which is crazy to say out loud.
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: But I was I was madly in love with her
• 42:10
  Speaker 1: because her family was so awesome. Oh, really? Like so
• 42:14
  Speaker 1: I'm at the point where I'm almost looking for the
• 42:16
  Speaker 1: girl's family. Do I like their family before? And then
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: I'll figure out if I like the girl. Wow. But yeah, you.
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: Don't want to marry them because you love their family.
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: Because the family's going to go away one day, and
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: you're going to be stuck with her.
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean, you're still going to have plenty
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: of times that you're going to have to be around them,
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: so you might as well vet them and make sure
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: it's somebody you like. Okay, fair enough. Texter said, hey, Mikey,
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: I am sorry. Give it to Mikey. He likes it. Oh,
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: Texter, thank you very much. But yeah, I was just
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: teasing with you, okay? So I hope you're teasing back.
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: I think you are.
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: But yeah, Mikey. That's probably the one nickname I don't
• 42:52
  Speaker 2: like the most.
• 42:53
  Speaker 1: Well, I don't know.
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: I probably don't like Mike the most. My mom always
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: called me Michael, and I like it when people still
• 43:01
  Speaker 2: call me Michael.
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: My dad goes by Mikey. Does he really? Yeah, Mikey man. Really? Yeah. Okay.
• 43:07
  Speaker 2: What did you think of the Texas player peeing on
• 43:09
  Speaker 2: the field?
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: Uncalled for. That was pretty. I know. You know what's funny?
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: They don't want the horns down, but they can get
• 43:16
  Speaker 2: out there and go urinate on the football field. I
• 43:20
  Speaker 2: think the funniest one, wasn't it the Ole Miss– Mississippi
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: State game where the guy was acting like a dog
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: and he goes over towards the end zone and he
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: pulls his leg up and goes, I thought that was
• 43:33
  Speaker 2: one of the funniest things ever. This one, the Texas
• 43:37
  Speaker 2: player did, I thought it was kind of graphic and gross.
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: I still laughed at it. My wife looked, that's gross, Michael.
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: I mean, do we, I haven't had this opinion yet,
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: but do we think he's really that well endowed? I mean,
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: he was holding his hand down pretty far. You know? Oh,
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: my goodness.
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: Let's move on from that. Thank you very much. But, no, listen,
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: they got the right call. A lot of people are
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: saying since the one player, Stewart, hit the Alabama player,
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: Dylan Stewart, the Texas player should be suspended as well.
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: No, stop.
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: It's like, no, we're not getting suspended. But as soon
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: as the SEC says players, coaches, and fans can't do
• 44:22
  Speaker 2: the horns down, I'm going to lose it.
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: I am going to lose it.
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: Listen, you're allowed to do any. If they're allowed to
• 44:30
  Speaker 2: do the horns up, you can do the horns down.
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: It's America for crying out loud.
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: It is.
• 44:33
  Speaker 3: It is.
• 44:35
  Speaker 2: I thought one of the most wholesome things of the
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: entire weekend. was when Justin Verlander was at the mound
• 44:44
  Speaker 2: for the last time. That was really cool. And his
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: daughter came out. It's giving me goose pimples right now.
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: His daughter came out to take him out for the
• 44:52
  Speaker 2: last time, and he got emotional.
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: That was awesome.
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: And I mean, all right, I've never disliked or liked
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: Justin Verlander. At that moment, I really liked him. Yeah, because,
• 45:03
  Speaker 2: I mean, you got to see the family man.
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: And you thought, okay, he must be a really good guy.
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: And then you go over, then he walks over to
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: the sideline, you see Kate Upton, and you're like, man,
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: he's a lucky SOP. Oh, I wasn't thinking that. I was.
• 45:17
  Speaker 2: Well, okay, it's kind of tacky and gross, but say
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: whatever you want. I just thought that was a cool
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: moment for Justin Verlander. He'll never forget, and I guarantee you,
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: his kids won't forget either. All right, we got hour
• 45:27
  Speaker 2: two coming right up.
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: Stay right there. More Just the Cast.
• 45:31
  Speaker 3: Welcome to Just the Cats with Michael Bennett.
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: All right, now we're number two in Just the Cats.
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: As you know, Mr.
• 46:03
  Speaker 2: Personality just shows up just in time to come in
• 46:07
  Speaker 2: here as I go on the air. But anyway, Justin,
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: let me get through a couple of these before we
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: go any further real quick since, you know, we now
• 46:17
  Speaker 2: just show up when it's time to come on the air.
• 46:19
  Speaker 2: But anyway, Ken, well, shoot, I'm having a problem. Sometimes
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: with these texts, I have a problem with bringing up
• 46:26
  Speaker 2: the one that I need.
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: You need me to grab it? Hold on.
• 46:30
  Speaker 2: I might need you to grab that one. If someone
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: calls me Joshua, this is from Josh. I know I'm
• 46:36
  Speaker 2: in trouble. I'm either going to jail or dying. Oh,
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: my gosh.
• 46:40
  Speaker 1: That's graphic.
• 46:42
  Speaker 2: That really is. I mean, why would you be going
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: to jail if they called you Joshua?
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: Because that's his legal name.
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: So that's how they would name it. Cops would call
• 46:50
  Speaker 2: him John. Okay. One person said, Scoots, what are you
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: talking about? You don't test the water temperature in the
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: urinal when you have to go?
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: Hmm. Interesting. Wait, what? Oh, I see. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, good.
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: I hope you do because I'm not going to go
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: back there and read that again. But one person said,
• 47:12
  Speaker 2: can Louisville fans be mad at Brahms? Isn't he kind
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: of what he's always been?
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, basically.
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, did he have more success at Purdue
• 47:25
  Speaker 2: than he's had at UofL? Let's talk about that for
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: a second, because if you look at Purdue, they're in
• 47:32
  Speaker 2: the Big Ten. If you look at UofL, they're in
• 47:35
  Speaker 2: the ACC. A lot easier than the Big Ten.
• 47:38
  Speaker 1: Sure.
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: So the question I pose to you, Justin, was Jeff
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: Braun more successful at Purdue than he's been at UofL?
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: I would say no. Really? Because they didn't do anything
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: at Purdue. Yeah, he went to bowl games, but he's
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: done the same at Louisville.
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but you think he would have more success at
• 48:01
  Speaker 2: UofL than he would have at Purdue. And how many
• 48:05
  Speaker 2: times has he been to the ACC championship?
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: Don't know. Yeah, I don't either. For some reason, I
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: don't think he's been to any. I don't think he
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: got to a Big Ten champion, too. No, he didn't.
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: But, again, he was playing a much tougher schedule within
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: the conference, and he was succeeding and winning up there. So,
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: to me, I think he's had more success at Purdue
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: than he has had at UofL.
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: Gotcha. For that reason alone. Yeah, I mean, I don't
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: know either way. Okay. All right, then.
• 48:35
  Speaker 2: Well, I thought you would because, you know, you're the
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: epitome of Big Ten success. fandom and media epitome yes
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: absolutely epitome yes one person texted in do you think
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: jeff braum should allow brian to run the offense and
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: should uh just be the head coach stein turned his
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: offense over so he could focus on being head coach.
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: Yes Answer is yes. I would say so too.
• 49:08
  Speaker 2: If you're hiring an offensive coordinator to be the offensive coordinator,
• 49:12
  Speaker 2: you hand everything over to them. I've never liked those
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: coaches that still coach the offense or defense either way.
• 49:19
  Speaker 2: So it should be handed over to them. But anyway, listen,
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: I'm not a UofL fan, so it just doesn't make
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: any difference to me. But you know what it does
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: mean to me on Tuesday? He never answered, but okay.
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: Thanks, Justin. I thought that was my answer. Okay, that's
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: your answer right there. Okay. Corey Price is here with us. Mr.
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: Big Time, he just shows up as it's time to
• 49:45
  Speaker 2: go on air. No longer does he get in here
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: early to prepare himself or anything like that. It's like, yeah,
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: I show up with you because the talent is now here.
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: The talent is now ready to speak. Michael, this is
• 49:56
  Speaker 2: Corey P.
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: From TV. He can do whatever he wants. Oh, that's it.
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: That's right. Corey P. from TV. That should be your
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: new Twitter account. I love it. His mic doesn't even
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: work now. There you go.
• 50:09
  Speaker 3: Hello.
• 50:11
  Speaker 4: You know, I'm working. Sometimes there's traffic. I try my best.
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: Sounds like a bunch of excuses. Exactly. I'm with you, Justin.
• 50:21
  Speaker 2: It just sounds like, you know, Corey P from TV
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: is just showing up when the talent is going to
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: show up. I mean, might as well just call him
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: the talent.
• 50:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: It's no longer Corey P. It's just the talent. I agree.
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: I mean, Corey P is nice. I checked.
• 50:35
  Speaker 4: Jeff Braun made the conference title game his first year
• 50:39
  Speaker 4: at Louisville.
• 50:39
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 50:40
  Speaker 1: And has it made it since? Correct. Yeah. That's. That
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: makes it tough.
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: I mean, would you rather make it as a coach
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: the first year or make it down the road? And
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: to me, it's like, I'd rather make it down the road.
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: I guess you could ask Tubby that question. See, I
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: think that's a fair question as well.
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: I think Tubby would have lasted longer if he would
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: have won his title later in his career at UK.
• 51:07
  Speaker 2: He was there for 10 seasons.
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: I know. You're right. You're right. This week is September 27th.
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: But wouldn't you rather finish your career as a champion
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: than your first year as a champion? I would.
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: That's how I would like to end my career.
• 51:25
  Speaker 4: As long as I get a title, I don't really
• 51:26
  Speaker 4: care if it's first year or last year, honestly.
• 51:28
  Speaker 1: Okay, fair enough. All right, tell me what date it is.
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: Title's a title. Well, today's date is September 29th. Look,
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: he doesn't even know it's the 29th. But this week
• 51:37

  Speaker 1: Reese? Oh, I can't stand her. What? Oh, yeah. Loathe.

  Speaker 1: Really? I had no idea.
• 54:14
  Speaker 4: He was filming behind enemy lines at the same time.
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: Oh. Had to keep his hair short for that role.
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: I had a friend in that movie behind enemy lines.
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 54:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, David Keith. I talked to him this weekend. Do

  Speaker 4: I think Scooch will like this one. September 29th, 2000.
• 55:08
  Speaker 4: The sports film Remember the Titans is released.
• 55:11
  Speaker 1: Actually, Corey, I'm going to have a take here. You
• 55:15
  Speaker 1: are not going to like.
• 55:16
  Speaker 4: Oh.
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: You ready? Yep. I think that is the most overrated
• 55:19
  Speaker 1: sports movie of all time. Of all time. All time.
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: Michael does as well. Because that was....
• 55:30
  Speaker 4: That was a, why are we talking about this reaction
• 55:33
  Speaker 4: right there?
• 55:33
  Speaker 1: That's not true. I liked it.
• 55:37
  Speaker 2: I mean, I saw it once and that was enough.
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: It was just, it was good.
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: I liked Denzel Washington. Okay. That's it. I mean, that's it.
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: I liked Denzel Washington.
• 55:48
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know. I mean, what else do
• 55:49
  Speaker 2: you want me to say about that? Did you like it?
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Did you see it more than once? Maybe. Yeah. Twice.
• 55:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 55:58
  Speaker 1: Directed by Boaz....
• 56:01
  Speaker 4: Stars Donald Faison, Ryan Gosling, Wood Harris, Ryan Hurst, Hayden Panettiere,
• 56:09
  Speaker 4: Will Patton, and, of course, Denzel Washington.
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: That was one of her first movies, wasn't it? I
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: think so, yeah. Rest in peace. Really sad. Yep.
• 56:18
  Speaker 4: The film grossed approximately $ 115. 7 million domestically, making it the
• 56:23
  Speaker 4: 14th highest-correction film in 2000. And Denzel Washington won the

• 56:30
  Speaker 1: Really? Yep.
• 56:32
  Speaker 4: September 29th, 2007, UK football defeats Florida Atlantic 45-17 at
• 56:37
  Speaker 4: Commonwealth Stadium. This was the UK's fifth consecutive game scoring
• 56:42
  Speaker 4: at least 40 points, which is the longest such streak
• 56:45
  Speaker 4: in school history. Andre Whitson's then-FBS record for most consecutive
• 56:51
  Speaker 4: passing attempts without an interception ended at 325. And Raphael
• 56:58
  Speaker 4: Little led the Wildcats on offense with 136 yards from scrimmage,
• 57:00
  Speaker 4: 112 rushing, and 24 receiving. I think Michael will like
• 57:06
  Speaker 4: this one.
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: Oh, I like that one. Raphael Little I loved. I mean,
• 57:10
  Speaker 2: he was so much fun to watch. Dual threat with
• 57:12
  Speaker 2: the receiving. Absolutely.
• 57:15
  Speaker 4: September 30, 1983, the comedy-drama film The Big Chill is
• 57:19
  Speaker 4: released at theaters.
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: You're a big chill guy? Hated it. Oh. Yeah, sorry.
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: I never saw that.
• 57:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, terrible. I liked the cast. I just didn't like
• 57:28
  Speaker 2: the movie. I had a professor.
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: Go ahead. The soundtrack's pretty good.
• 57:31
  Speaker 2: The soundtrack was fantastic, but I had a professor at
• 57:34
  Speaker 2: UK that loved, he clearly loved this movie, and we
• 57:38
  Speaker 2: had to do a paper on The Big Chill.
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: It's like, really, man? It's a dumb movie. So that's
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: probably why I disliked it even more. He made The
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: Big Chill the big deal. Well, exactly.
• 57:47
  Speaker 2: Now, what was it, Robert Klein? Kevin Kline.
• 57:51
  Speaker 1: Kevin Kline.
• 57:51
  Speaker 4: One of my favorite actors. I did like him. The
• 57:53
  Speaker 4: son of Calvin Kline, by the way.
• 57:56
  Speaker 1: He is not.
• 57:56
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 57:57
  Speaker 4: Directed by Lawrence Kasdan. Not even spelled the same way.
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: Didn't he coach in St. X now?
• 58:02
  Speaker 2: He did.
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: This is the biggest squirrel show in the world. I'm sorry.
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: It should be just the squirrel.
• 58:11
  Speaker 4: Directed by Lawrence Kasdan. Stars Tom Berenger, Glenn Close, Jeff Goldblum,
• 58:17
  Speaker 4: William Hurt, Kevin Kline. Mary Kay Place, Meg Tilly, and
• 58:21
  Speaker 4: Jo Beth Williams.
• 58:22
  Speaker 1: Listen to that. What an incredible cast for a terrible movie.
• 58:26
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 58:28
  Speaker 3: Anyways.
• 58:28

• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: I don't discriminate.
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 2: No, none of us do. But, I mean, yeah, with women, no.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 1: You don't. I like them all. Yeah, you do. The
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 1: bigger backside, the better, too. If they're taller than you,
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 1: you're even happier. Absolutely. I mean, it didn't take much

• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: her career went downhill after that. Did it really? Yeah,
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: because I don't guess... Hollywood, like, enjoyed that side of her. So, yeah,
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: she really struggled to get gigs after that. Oh, that's
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 1: too bad. Now, I mean, she's picked up since. I
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: think her career has kind of resurrected ever since. But, yeah,

  Speaker 1: after that. Interesting. She had many years where nobody would
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: work with her. Oh, wow. I had no idea.

  Speaker 1: I'm just teasing you. You know I'm teasing you, but
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 1: I'm not. Michael is just a giant tease. Ooh, that
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 1: doesn't sound like a real compliment right there. How's your
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: girlfriend in E-Town, by the way?
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 2: Just wanting to know. People have been asking, texting in.
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 1: Wanting to know.
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 4: Literally no one's been asking, I guarantee you.
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 2: You haven't been down I-65 South, huh? It's so sad.
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 2: Not since yesterday.
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 1: Oh, he was down there yesterday, Justin.
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 4: No, not since yesterday. I'm saying it was rough because
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 4: of the shooting.
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 2: Oh, yeah. That was horrible. Did they ever find the guy?
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: Yes.
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 4: In Louisville. Here in Louisville. Yesterday.
• 1:08:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah. That was, if you haven't heard, that was a
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 1: state trooper that got killed by this gentleman yesterday. Really sad.
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 4: But no, no girlfriend to speak of, Michael Bennett.
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so the E-Town trip is no longer, huh?
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 1: That's so sad.
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 4: I mean, I might go down there, but not with
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 4: a girlfriend.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, you're going to do this so long. You're
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: going to have him start to believe that he actually
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 1: had a girlfriend. Exactly. Exactly.
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 2: That's what he should say. Because once you say you
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 2: had a girlfriend, then other girls want to go out
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 2: with you. Once you say Corey P from TV has
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 2: a girlfriend, now everybody's going to flock to you and say,
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 2: I want.
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 1: To be with you. There you go, Corey. Free dating advice.
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 1: That's how it works. Take it or leave it.
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 2: Well, that's what it's worth right there. I can tell
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 2: you that.
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 1: It's free.
• 1:09:05
  Speaker 4: I think that probably works 0% of the time.
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: Okay, good.
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 2: All right, what's going to happen this weekend? South Carolina's
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 2: UK heads down to Columbia.
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 4: I cannot believe they are an underdog.
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 1: Blackie, right? blows my mind.
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 4: On paper, the best player in defense is not playing.
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 4: That helps. I think Shane Beamer is, I mean, he's desperate,
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 4: which is a little concerning because you don't know how
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 4: they'll play, knowing that their coach might be gone soon.
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 4: But I think just talent-wise, I think we're just better.
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: So do I. That's how I feel.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 2: But I'm nervous that, okay, as soon as I say that,
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 2: as soon as I get a little confidence, you saw
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 2: what happened to UofL last weekend. And I think the
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 2: same thing for UK. Could definitely happen.
• 1:09:52
  Speaker 4: I mean, this Beamer stuff makes me think of Bill
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 4: Curry in 96.
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 4: We fire him, and then we win three games.
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: Three in a row.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 4: Three in a row. So, I mean, like I said,
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 4: I'm a little worried about how desperate they'll play. But
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 4: if our O-line plays half as good as it did
• 1:10:08
  Speaker 4: on Saturday, I don't see us losing.
• 1:10:11
  Speaker 2: But you just can't let the quarterback scramble like the
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 2: South Alabama quarterback did. I mean, you just got to
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 2: figure a way to contain him.
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 4: He's given us fits the last two years for sure.
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 1: No doubt.
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 4: But I think we've had some running QBs two or
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 4: three times this year. And I don't think any of
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 4: them is really.
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 2: Well, Texas A & M was supposed to have a
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 2: dual threat. He was a no threat.
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 1: Exactly.
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 3: I'm.
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: Pretty confident.
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 4: I know they've had her number the last four or
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 4: five years, but I'm pretty confident.
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 2: I think now with the change and Mark Stoops no
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 2: longer here, now we've got Will Stein, I think we
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 2: go four or five years in a row.
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean, we did win a bunch with Stoops
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 4: against Sakana and Missouri.
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 1: And here's what.
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 2: I would do if I was Will Stein once UK
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 2: beat South Carolina down Columbia next week. You bring out
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 2: the sunglasses, okay? That's what he should do. And just
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 2: give it right back to Shane Beamer.
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 4: I hope Beamer gets fired, honestly. Wow, that's terrible. Although,
• 1:11:10
  Speaker 4: I don't know. I want him to stay so the
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 4: program suffers.
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly.
• 1:11:15
  Speaker 4: So we can beat him. I don't know. That's a
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 4: tough call.
• 1:11:18
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Corey Price, cheering for people to lose
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: their jobs. Exactly.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 2: I don't ever want anybody to lose their job.
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 1: That's fair. Yeah, yeah. Well, maybe there's one person. But no, no.
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 1: It's not anybody. No, of course not. Scoots? No.
• 1:11:34
  Speaker 2: No, nobody that's in my present area right now.
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 1: Come on now. I love you guys. Anyway, all right. Corey,
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 1: always fun having you here. I'll be here next Tuesday, okay?
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: So don't worry about it. I won't worry now. I
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 1: was going to worry. No, you shouldn't. I don't believe
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: that you were going to worry. Oh, I was. Yeah.
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 1: It's different when you're not here, you know? Yeah. Same
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 1: with Scoots. Yeah, it is. I agree with that.
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 2: Somebody complained to me last week. Michael, you're taking off again.
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 2: We get used to listening to you, and then you're gone.
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 2: And truthfully, I know he was kind of complaining, but
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 2: I took it as a compliment. It is different when
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 2: one of us is gone.
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 1: So, anyway. I agree. I like the dynamic. All right.
• 1:12:20

• 1:13:38
  Speaker 1: Hung. Yes, he did.
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 2: You've got to be kidding me.
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 1: He did. Did he not know how to say his
• 1:13:49
  Speaker 1: last name? I would assume not. Dr. Hung.
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 2: Okay, I mean, we've gone from that you asking about
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 2: the Texas player, size mattered, but John Wong, John Hung.

  Speaker 1: But, okay, there you go. I didn't hear that one live.
• 1:14:10

• 1:14:15
  Speaker 2: hour show on Friday.
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: Is that right? Yeah. Yeah, it's like the last probably
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 1: 40 minutes of Friday. Okay, yeah, I got to go
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: hear him call him Dr. Hung.
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 2: Did he correct him is the other part I.
• 1:14:25
  Speaker 1: Want to know. That's a great question.
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:14:26
  Speaker 2: All right, so this is weird. I'm just going to
• 1:14:31
  Speaker 2: tell you right now. So yesterday was UK Basketball Media
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 2: Day with Mark Pope. You know, they only sent out
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 2: the invite last week, which before you knew weeks ahead
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 2: of time when they were going to have the media day.
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 2: It was especially when Cal was here. You knew exactly
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 2: what was going to happen. It was big production. Everything's
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 2: going to be planned out. We're going to have all
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 2: the media members there.
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 1: You couldn't.
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 2: You had to get there early enough to get a
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 2: good seat. I remember the day when the guy over
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 2: in Lexington, he was sitting right next to me. Cal,
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 2: this is media day, not coaches day. What was that
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 2: guy's name? That was the writer over in Lexington for
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 2: the Herald that did that. Do you remember his name?
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 2: John something or yeah, I don't remember what his name was,
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 2: but I am sitting there and he is saying that,
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 2: I mean, you should have seen Cal's face. He didn't
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 2: know how to respond at first. because this was media day,
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 2: not coaches day. And he's a, he's supposed to answer
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 2: whatever questions they want to have. And he's like, okay,
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 2: what question would you like to have? I mean, it was,
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 2: I wanted to crawl under the chair and, uh, oh
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 2: my gosh, that was, that was just terrible. But, uh, anyway,
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 2: I just, this, I don't know what's going on with
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 2: Mark Pope and you know, you got, uh, um, um,
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 2: Big Blue Madness happened this Friday. Just the excitement. It's
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 2: almost like he wants to hide the excitement. Am I
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 2: making sense at all? It doesn't make any sense to me.
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 2: I can tell you that.
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, it does make sense to me because the
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 1: last two years you didn't hide the excitement. No. And
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 1: look how disappointed the fan base was at the end
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 1: of those years. Thank you.
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 2: The texter said Jerry Tipton. That's who it was. Yeah,
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 2: Jerry Tipton asked that question.
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, if you're a little bit more reserved going into
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 1: this year and don't let fans– get all crazy excited,
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 1: then they won't be as let down if it doesn't
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 1: work out.
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 2: Oh, see, that's what I wonder is he not, does
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 2: he not want the excitement about this team? And I
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 2: kind of feel like Mark Pope does not want excitement.
• 1:16:39
  Speaker 2: He's worried about injury. Cause you know, the other part,
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 2: he is not going to have the annual blue white game.
• 1:16:46
  Speaker 2: He's going to have an open practice. And I just,
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know, you kind of did a nice
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 2: job with the media madness, even though, you know, yours
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 2: truly was left out. They said they sent me an email.
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 2: I've gone back and searched for it. I have no email.
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 2: And the guy's like, well, we sent it to you, Michael.
• 1:17:09
  Speaker 2: I was like, okay. By the way, it's Mr.
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 1: Bennett.
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 2: But no, I don't know what's going on over there.
• 1:17:16
  Speaker 2: And I'm getting to a point where it's like, okay.
• 1:17:19
  Speaker 2: I'm worried about this. I'm worried that he does not
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 2: want the excitement. I mean, the big take from yesterday
• 1:17:27
  Speaker 2: is he said the biggest strength that UK has will
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 2: be their length. The last two years, it's been about shooting.
• 1:17:33
  Speaker 2: Now it's about defense. Mark Pope believes this team can
• 1:17:37
  Speaker 2: be an elite defensive team.
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 1: Is that exciting? I don't know. You tell me, Justin.
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 2: How do you– I've described a little bit about media
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 2: day yesterday and the uneventful day that it was for
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 2: Mark Pope, third year of media day, and it just
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 2: seems like a real– let's put it under the carpet
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 2: and move on. Let's start the season and we'll see
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 2: how it goes. I mean, if it results in wins,
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 2: it'll be exciting. Yeah, because unlike football where things have
• 1:18:07
  Speaker 2: gotten a little stale and slow moving with the under
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 2: Mark Stoops, now you've got the complete opposite with Will Stein.
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah. fast tempo, up pace. But Mark Pope, his first
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 1: two years, what he was doing obviously hasn't worked. So
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 1: you've got to change something. If you want to have
• 1:18:25
  Speaker 1: more of an emphasis on the defensive side of the ball,
• 1:18:28
  Speaker 1: I don't necessarily hate that. You're just not going to
• 1:18:30
  Speaker 1: get those 111 to 103 games anymore, which if it's,
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 1: like I said, if it's resulting in a win, I
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 1: think that's, that's going to keep the fan base pretty happy.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 2: Well, he's just, he said he's putting the blue white
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 2: game on hiatus. So he's not giving up on it altogether,
• 1:18:46
  Speaker 2: but you know, that's the game where, uh, Jalen low
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 2: hurt his shoulder.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:18:50
  Speaker 2: So you wonder, is that the reason why he doesn't
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 2: want to have injury? Well, you're going to have injury anywhere.
• 1:18:55
  Speaker 2: Don't blame just the blue white game. You're going to
• 1:18:57
  Speaker 2: have injury in a practice.
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, we've seen that already. Exactly.
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 2: So why give that up? So now they're going to
• 1:19:03
  Speaker 2: have an open practice, October 8th, October 9th. And I
• 1:19:08
  Speaker 2: just like, I don't get this. I really don't. And
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 2: to me, if you're coming into year three. To me,
• 1:19:18
  Speaker 2: you need to build even more excitement. Don't sit here
• 1:19:21
  Speaker 2: and just like we got this. We got media.
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. Next week we got to do media day. Oh, yeah.
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 2: We got Big Blue Madness that next Friday.
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 2: We got this. Oh, by the way, we have a
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 2: great defensive team. That's not building excitement. And to me,
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 2: he needs to build even more excitement.
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but why? Because that's, like I said, that's just
• 1:19:38
  Speaker 1: going to let people down. If you're trying to build
• 1:19:41
  Speaker 1: this team up like he's done the past two years,
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 1: Trent Noah, 70% from three, blah, blah, blah, all the
• 1:19:47
  Speaker 1: crazy things he said in the offseason. It hasn't panned out.
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 1: None of that stuff came to fruition. I guess because everybody...
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 1: To me... Well, I shouldn't say everybody. There's a number
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 1: of people in the fan base that are really down
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 1: on Mark Pope right now. Sure. And to me.
• 1:20:04
  Speaker 2: You can't hide from it. You've got to get out
• 1:20:07
  Speaker 2: there and build what you've built. Hold on. You've got
• 1:20:11
  Speaker 2: the team now. Now let's build it up for the
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 2: fan base.
• 1:20:14
  Speaker 1: Go ahead. To me, that's not his responsibility. Oh, I
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 1: think it is wholeheartedly. The best part about being a fan,
• 1:20:21
  Speaker 1: and everyone fans differently. I understand that. But the best
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 1: part about being a fan is when you get eyes
• 1:20:26
  Speaker 1: on your team for the first time and you can
• 1:20:29
  Speaker 1: make your own assessment. that's one part I hate about
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 1: media and their relationship with fans is the fact that
• 1:20:36
  Speaker 1: A lot of times, media will put something out, and
• 1:20:39
  Speaker 1: fans will have this preconceived notion about the team going
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 1: into the season, where in reality, we should, as fans,
• 1:20:47
  Speaker 1: sit back, get eyes on our team, and make our
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 1: own opinion. We shouldn't have to be told what to
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 1: think about this team, and then everybody latches onto that.
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 1: Make your own decision.
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 2: The part of being a leader, a true coach, is
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 2: to lead how you feel about this team. And so
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 2: I think he should be a bit of a cheerleader
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 2: out there. Yeah, but again, in the past two years,
• 1:21:08
  Speaker 2: it hasn't worked out. Yeah, you're right. You're exactly correct.
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 2: But one of these years, it's got to hit. And
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 2: he has to continue being that way. Just because the
• 1:21:19
  Speaker 2: first two years didn't make out and didn't pan out
• 1:21:21
  Speaker 2: doesn't mean you automatically quit being that person. You got
• 1:21:24
  Speaker 2: to be that person every single year. Be that consistency.
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 2: Because it's going to come out with the fan base,
• 1:21:30
  Speaker 2: and it's going to come out with the... uh, the, the,
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 2: the players. And now that the fan base is going
• 1:21:35
  Speaker 2: to be like, well, I don't know what to expect.
• 1:21:37
  Speaker 2: Maybe I don't really go to games. Maybe I don't
• 1:21:38
  Speaker 2: really cheer. And then guess what? The team is going
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 2: to feel that from the fan base and they're going
• 1:21:44
  Speaker 2: to just play out the way the fans feel like
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 2: about that team. Anyway, that's what concerns me.
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I just don't think, I don't know. I think
• 1:21:52
  Speaker 1: it's okay to switch up who you are. Like if you're,
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 1: if you're playing roulette and there's been seven blacks and
• 1:21:58
  Speaker 1: you're betting on red every time, cause you know, the
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 1: streak's going to be broken and, Eventually, it will be broken.
• 1:22:02
  Speaker 1: So keep betting red. And that's what Mark Pope's kind
• 1:22:05
  Speaker 1: of doing. I just feel like now you keep that
• 1:22:08
  Speaker 1: positive vibe. You be positive all the time. Yes, there
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 1: is going to be. And it can be cyclical. I
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 1: don't think he's being negative, though. He's just not being
• 1:22:16
  Speaker 1: over the top like he has been in past years.
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 1: You're right.
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 2: He's not being negative. But I mean, to me, it's
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 2: coming across as potentially negative.
• 1:22:25
  Speaker 1: I didn't like it.
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 2: The fact that he did not, or UK did not
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 2: announce that there was a media day until last week.
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 1: You don't find that rather odd? I mean, it is.
• 1:22:35
  Speaker 2: I didn't even know what was happening yesterday. I completely
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 2: forgot about it. And normally it's like, oh.
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 1: We got media day, got media day, got media day.
• 1:22:41
  Speaker 1: And it just came and went. Yeah, but doesn't, isn't
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 1: some of that having to do with the football team
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 1: and their success? Like, allow people. Allow fans to enjoy
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 1: the football season before we get basketball crammed down our throat.
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 2: I'm telling you right now, when Mark Stoops had it
• 1:22:56
  Speaker 2: going on in 2018, and that team, even Cal was saying,
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 2: oh my gosh, are we talking football at Basketball Media Day?
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 2: He was making all kinds of, in fact, I asked
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 2: a question about that. He's like, this is crazy how
• 1:23:09
  Speaker 2: football is just taking over. But that day at UK
• 1:23:13
  Speaker 2: Basketball Media Day, there wasn't a seat in the house.
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 2: And yesterday, it was just like, oh, yeah, we got
• 1:23:19
  Speaker 2: media day. Again, I completely forgot about it. I didn't
• 1:23:22
  Speaker 2: even care about going. So, I don't know. Just before,
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 2: I would have been so excited to go to this.
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 2: I hate to be coming down on Mark Pope, but
• 1:23:32
  Speaker 2: guess what? The entire program kind of feels like it's
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 2: coming down.
• 1:23:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, we're also over a month away from the season. So,
• 1:23:38
  Speaker 1: it doesn't feel like. That basketball is even close to
• 1:23:42
  Speaker 1: being on the horizon. Oh, and that all, I agree.
• 1:23:45
  Speaker 1: Despite the fact that it is.
• 1:23:46
  Speaker 2: But it felt like that every single year before, too.
• 1:23:49
  Speaker 2: And now that just, I don't know. Oh, it's an
• 1:23:52
  Speaker 2: afterthought even to the head coach. It seems like it's
• 1:23:55
  Speaker 2: a bit of a problem.
• 1:23:56
  Speaker 1: So, I don't know.
• 1:24:00
  Speaker 2: I have tried to stay positive about Mark Pope in
• 1:24:02
  Speaker 2: the basketball program. This year, I might not be that way.
• 1:24:06
  Speaker 2: I might be kind of neutral. And if people want
• 1:24:09
  Speaker 2: to complain about Mark Pope, if people want to be
• 1:24:12
  Speaker 2: positive about Mark Pope, I'm going to let them do
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 2: either way and let it play out how it's going
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 2: to play out. I just don't have a good feeling
• 1:24:19
  Speaker 2: about this.
• 1:24:20
  Speaker 1: I just don't.
• 1:24:21
  Speaker 2: So I don't have a good feeling how Mark Pope's
• 1:24:24
  Speaker 2: feeling about this team either.
• 1:24:26
  Speaker 1: But we'll see. He may not either. Exactly.
• 1:24:28
  Speaker 2: That's what bothers me. So we'll see how it pans out.
• 1:24:32
  Speaker 2: And if things turn out great, I'm going to be
• 1:24:35
  Speaker 2: happy for him. But if things don't turn out great,
• 1:24:38
  Speaker 2: I'm hoping Jay Bett can make a decision that, you know,
• 1:24:41
  Speaker 2: even though it's my first year, I might have to
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 2: make a tough decision to go after somebody else. And
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 2: I hope Jay Bett is that way. So I'm sorry
• 1:24:49
  Speaker 2: for Mark Pope if it doesn't work out because, yeah.
• 1:24:51
  Speaker 1: He's one of our own. Well, let's cross that bridge
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 1: when we get there.
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 1:24:54
  Speaker 1: I know. I just kind of set the tone.
• 1:24:56
  Speaker 2: And that was a bit of a negative tone.
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 1: It was. Sorry about that. All right.
• 1:25:00
  Speaker 2: We got to take our last break. When we come back, yeah,
• 1:25:02
  Speaker 2: we'll talk a little bit about the thing that happened
• 1:25:05
  Speaker 2: yesterday with the government.
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 1: Whatever.
• 1:25:07
  Speaker 2: But also, how did LeBron decide where he's going with
• 1:25:11
  Speaker 2: the 76ers? I thought it was kind of an interesting story.
• 1:25:14
  Speaker 2: We'll talk about that, too. Stay right there.
• 1:25:15
  Speaker 1: One more segment just gets coming right up. All right,
• 1:26:00
  Speaker 1: before we go today, there's a couple things I definitely
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 1: want to talk about. First of all, your Steelers team. Yeah.
• 1:26:07
  Speaker 2: I'm surprised you didn't see this, and I'm surprised you
• 1:26:09
  Speaker 2: haven't talked about it. But their national anthem was sung
• 1:26:14
  Speaker 2: by somebody, not even from America, but none other than
• 1:26:20
  Speaker 2: Iron Maiden's lead singer, Bruce Dickinson.
• 1:26:23
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 2: He sung it acapella. And I thought he did an
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 2: absolutely phenomenal job. He's in the Iron or the Steel City,
• 1:26:31
  Speaker 2: so it makes sense.
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's right. I didn't even think about that. Yes.
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 2: But it was hilarious to see the responses that this
• 1:26:39
  Speaker 2: was not the real Bruce Dickinson. You remember that was
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 2: the Bruce Dickinson that was on the SNL sketch where
• 1:26:46
  Speaker 2: they did the cowbell?
• 1:26:47
  Speaker 1: Not familiar. Oh, come on. I did see the cowbell skit,
• 1:26:51
  Speaker 1: but I don't know who Bruce Dickinson. Okay, well, that
• 1:26:53
  Speaker 1: was the guy that played the producer there. That was
• 1:26:58
  Speaker 1: Bruce Dickinson played by, oh, the actor. I can't think
• 1:27:00
  Speaker 1: of his name, but yeah. Oh, yeah. He went by
• 1:27:03
  Speaker 1: Bruce Dickinson. Gotcha. Yeah. Christopher Walken.
• 1:27:06
  Speaker 2: Christopher Walken, that's right. So he played Bruce Dickinson. Yeah,
• 1:27:09
  Speaker 2: that's me, Bruce Dickinson. I mean, before y'all be wearing gold-plated,
• 1:27:15
  Speaker 2: what was it, gold-plated diapers or something? Oh, yeah, it
• 1:27:18
  Speaker 2: was just awesome.
• 1:27:19
  Speaker 1: Whatever happened, let's bring him back every week because we
• 1:27:22
  Speaker 1: stuck it to the bingle. Okay, thanks. Suck it.
• 1:27:25
  Speaker 2: Really appreciate that. And then people are going nuts because
• 1:27:29
  Speaker 2: last night, the Chicago Bears brought in a Mariacha band.
• 1:27:34
  Speaker 1: Wait, did they really? You didn't see that? I missed that. Oh,
• 1:27:37
  Speaker 1: you got to go back and watch that. Oh, that's fantastic. Oh,
• 1:27:39
  Speaker 1: they were.
• 1:27:40
  Speaker 2: And people are criticizing that. How can you criticize a mariachi?
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 2: Because they said, well, they're not from this country. It's like,
• 1:27:47
  Speaker 2: what difference does that matter? We are filled with people
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 2: that are from this country.
• 1:27:51
  Speaker 1: Exactly. America was built on foreigners. Exactly.
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 2: Personally, I loved it. I thought they did a phenomenal job. So, yes,
• 1:28:00
  Speaker 2: you need to go back and watch it. Only thing
• 1:28:02
  Speaker 2: I didn't like, the quarterback that's injured for the Chicago Bears,
• 1:28:06
  Speaker 2: he's walking around the sidelines. It's like, dude, stand still
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 2: while the national anthem is being played. It was almost
• 1:28:11
  Speaker 2: very disrespectful.
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 1: Gotcha.
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I did not like that. But I loved the
• 1:28:15
  Speaker 2: mariachi band. So, yeah, people are going nuts because ESPN
• 1:28:20
  Speaker 2: put it up on their social media. It's like, they're
• 1:28:22
  Speaker 2: not Americans. Well, this entire country is made of non-Americans, okay?
• 1:28:28
  Speaker 1: So, anyway. At some point.
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 2: I loved it. But I thought it was great. And
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 2: I hope they do more of stuff like this.
• 1:28:35
  Speaker 4: But.
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you saw it or not. The
• 1:28:39
  Speaker 2: Senate passes this. Protect the College Sports Act.
• 1:28:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I know.
• 1:28:43
  Speaker 3: I know.
• 1:28:45
  Speaker 1: Here's the thing.
• 1:28:46
  Speaker 2: The bill limits the power for or conferences that report
• 1:28:50
  Speaker 2: more than 700 million revenue to 20 members. Any power
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 2: four team wanting to move to a new league must
• 1:28:59
  Speaker 2: spend three years as an independent. That one line right
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 2: there just saved the ACC.
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 1: It did.
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 2: I mean, you can say whatever you want. I think
• 1:29:13
  Speaker 2: three years is a bit steep. What do you think?
• 1:29:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, two seems good. More reasonable. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 2: But three years is a long time. And they should
• 1:29:25
  Speaker 2: put in this, too, that every team should be a
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 2: part of a conference.
• 1:29:28
  Speaker 1: Okay?
• 1:29:29
  Speaker 2: And enough of this whole independent crap. And that if
• 1:29:32
  Speaker 2: we're in the top 12, we get to be in
• 1:29:34
  Speaker 2: the college football playoffs.
• 1:29:36
  Speaker 1: No, you don't.
• 1:29:37
  Speaker 2: Play a decent schedule, and we'll see how your schedule
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 2: is ranked with everyone else's. And then possibly you could
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 2: make the college football playoffs. Athletes are allowed to transfer
• 1:29:46
  Speaker 2: only once. I did like that. Players are able to
• 1:29:49
  Speaker 2: transfer if their head coach is a change. And the
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 2: legislation gives the NCAA antitrust protection to enforce transfer rules
• 1:29:58
  Speaker 2: and prevent tampering.
• 1:30:01
  Speaker 1: Like that. I mean, there are a lot of good things.
• 1:30:04
  Speaker 1: There are. But it's not going to pass. Why not?
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 1: It's already passed. Well, it passed the Senate. Now it
• 1:30:10
  Speaker 1: goes to the House of Representatives. You don't think it'll
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 1: pass there? Well, they can't vote until after election season.
• 1:30:16
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 1: And then if it's not passed by time, a new
• 1:30:20
  Speaker 1: Congress takes over, it has to start all over. Yeah.
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 2: So you think it'll start all over is what you're
• 1:30:25
  Speaker 2: telling me?
• 1:30:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:30:27
  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 1: All right, then.
• 1:30:29
  Speaker 2: That would be my prediction. We'll see what happens. I
• 1:30:33
  Speaker 2: know a lot of the people are out there. Lastly,
• 1:30:36
  Speaker 2: the law would prevent any FBS coach from leaving for
• 1:30:39
  Speaker 2: a new head coaching job in season to a new school.
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 2: So they're calling that the Lane Kiffin rule.
• 1:30:46
  Speaker 1: The only issue I have is, I guess, with the
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 1: transfer rules only allowing to transfer once. Look, I think
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 1: you should be able, if kids want to transfer four
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 1: or five times, by all means, you can do that.
• 1:30:58
  Speaker 1: But only your first one's free. The other ones, you've
• 1:31:01
  Speaker 1: got to sit, we're going back to old rules, you've
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 1: got to sit out. Oh, sit out? Yeah.
• 1:31:05
  Speaker 2: So, in other words, you're enforcing the same rule, basically.
• 1:31:08
  Speaker 2: They're not going to transfer if they have to sit
• 1:31:10
  Speaker 2: out the entire year.
• 1:31:11
  Speaker 1: Well, then you can't transfer. Sorry. Well, then just keep
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 1: it how it is.
• 1:31:14
  Speaker 2: You can transfer one time. I think one time is enough.
• 1:31:17
  Speaker 2: Unless your coach takes another job or loses his job,
• 1:31:22
  Speaker 2: then you should be allowed. I agree with that. I
• 1:31:24
  Speaker 2: think one time transfer is enough. And enough said as
• 1:31:28
  Speaker 2: far as I'm concerned.
• 1:31:29
  Speaker 1: It should be. Yeah. Well, it's just been too much.
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 2: By the way, I don't know if you saw this story,
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 2: but LeBron James said he picked the 76ers because of
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 2: one player that he picked the brain of.
• 1:31:40
  Speaker 1: Did you see this? I didn't.
• 1:31:42
  Speaker 2: And it ended up being Tyrese Maxey. So he wanted
• 1:31:46
  Speaker 2: to sit down and pick the brain of Tyrese Maxey
• 1:31:49
  Speaker 2: before he made this decision. And that was predominantly the
• 1:31:51
  Speaker 2: decision he made to go to the 76ers because he
• 1:31:54
  Speaker 2: feels like he can build a team and win a
• 1:31:56
  Speaker 2: championship with Tyrese Maxey.
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 1: I thought that was cool. Shows the respect he has
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 1: for him. Exactly.
• 1:32:02
  Speaker 2: Now, they do share the same agent, too, which I
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 2: think kind of helps. So the same agent that Tyrese
• 1:32:09
  Speaker 2: Maxey has, the same agent LeBron James has.
• 1:32:11
  Speaker 1: Man, Tyrese is just living the life. He really is.
• 1:32:16
  Speaker 1: He must wake up every morning and pinch himself. Like,
• 1:32:18
  Speaker 1: what's happening? He should. He's got Rondo hitting him up
• 1:32:21
  Speaker 1: to work out his kid. He's got LeBron picking his
• 1:32:23
  Speaker 1: brain on where he should go for his next destination.
• 1:32:25
  Speaker 1: Isn't that great? Like, what a wildlife.
• 1:32:28
  Speaker 2: I love that. I mean, I think that's great. But
• 1:32:33
  Speaker 2: one thing, how much time we got?
• 1:32:34
  Speaker 1: About a minute. Okay.
• 1:32:36
  Speaker 2: I did want to talk about the Josh Allen thing.
• 1:32:39
  Speaker 2: Did you see that the other day?
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 1: I did, with the football.
• 1:32:40
  Speaker 2: With the Jaguars and the football.
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 1: Don't touch me.
• 1:32:43
  Speaker 2: The little football dude's going crazy. Now they found out
• 1:32:46
  Speaker 2: he's a Patriots fan.
• 1:32:47
  Speaker 1: No, that would check out.
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:32:49
  Speaker 1: He was getting his ass. You can't touch me. Don't
• 1:32:51
  Speaker 1: touch me. No, no.
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 2: I thought that was the dumbest thing. It's like, dude,
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 2: he wants the football because his teammate just made his
• 1:32:58
  Speaker 2: first interception in the NFL.
• 1:33:00
  Speaker 1: Just on a power trip. It was.
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 2: It was completely a power trip. So speaking of power,
• 1:33:06
  Speaker 2: tomorrow we're going to talk about Power K. Can't wait
• 1:33:09
  Speaker 2: to talk about that. So appreciate you listening. Everybody have
• 1:33:12
  Speaker 2: a great day. We'll see you tomorrow on Just the Cats.
