Saying goodbye to Anthony Bennett (Monday Show Thread)
By now, I’m sure you’ve heard Anthony Bennett is staying out west. The nation’s top uncommitted recruit dropped Kentucky and Florida from contention, leaving only UNLV and Oregon as potential college destinations. The news stung at first, but it could end up being a blessing in disguise if some of the talk around his eligibility and attitude are true. Matt will talk about those issues and many other topics from around the world of Kentucky on this morning’s radio show on Talk Radio 1080 AM in Louisville and 630 AM in Lexington. Give him a call at (502) 571-1080 or send a text to the TEXTING MACHINE at (317) 385-5148
Topics include:
— Where do we go from here?
— Cal’s top priority
— Random celebrities at the KY Derby
— It was hot outside over the weekend

…not for everyone.
Did UK and UF get used by UNLV via AB to manufacture some hype around their program?
I’d venture to say yes. Yes they did.
Churchill Downs: Come for the Derby. Stay because someone murdered you.
First- of many to say we didn’t want him anyway. Too much trouble. He didn’t want to play team ball. He couldn’t make it at UK anyway. UK’s not for everyone (oops sorry #1). Recruiting violation waiting to happen. He’s not that good anyway. Shall I continue. Howie Lindsey’s belly is smiling.
I think that Bennett would have been a good fit. Just like with Shabazz, we shouldn’t have a sour grapes mentality just because we didn’t get him, because the majority of us wanted him. I wish him well, but just as #1 states, UK isn’t for everyone.
I hope Mr. Bennett has made a good decision for himself. Playing at Ore. or UNLV is not going to be on a stage like UK, or even UF for that matter. But if he is happy we should all support him and his decision.
Upon signing Bennett at OU, Oregon just moved passed UK to #2 in the ESPN Recruiting Rankings.
Bennett would be playing in the SEC if he could qualify academically.
8) DOH!! I forgot one!! Thanks Buddie!
I ran into Gillispie mid-conversation at the bar during The Derby, talking to the bartender About The Triple Crown, but they both looked at me like i had poop in my teeth when I brought horse racing up into the conversation. SMH!!
#GLovesTheCrown
Billy Gillespie won $500 by accidentally betting on I’ll Have Another (He thought the betting window was the bar) which he quickly turned around and lost after investing it in a Ponzi scheme.
Check out Ryan Lemond getting dumped in the mud from the infield from WLEX-18 back in the 90’s http://digitalprimetime.com/bloop12.htm
Guess that guy can’t do that now.
7- The same recruiting service that had John Wall at #5? I’ll hang up and listen , thanks.
Matt, how are you not inside in the Turf Club or Turf Club Lounge?
7 – Rivals currently has Oregon ranked #31. I dont see Bennett jumping them from 31 to 1.
Bennett heard Ryan Lemond was on a diet and they couldnt go to golden corral together.
13,15) Try not to take everything on message boards literally.
If KSR owned a horse what would it be named? My ideas; #5 Youdon’tknowme! (courtesy of Nate) #4 Character Assassination (also courtesy of Nate) #3 Cherubic #2 OMD (Old Man Dong) #1 Poop Tooth
What a wienie.
Here’s the thing…when a recruit wants to take an official visit, they have to produce a transcript. The fact that Bennett hasn’t taken an official at this stage in the process, combined with the fact that the major programs (UK and UF) have been “eliminated” (i.e., backed off), is very telling with regard to his chance of being eligible.
Best of luck to Bennett. I have the utmost confidence in Calipari to put together another tremendous team this upcoming season.
UK_JB – oh my! where did you get that? did it come from PUnk?
We were up at 6 am and stayed at Churchill for 12 hours in direct sunlight, over on Backside. You are so beta.
Bennett hasn’t signed yet?
Ehhh…Bennett was just someone that I used to know…goodbye to him and let’s move on!!
UK_JB – that was my first derby in 1996. we never saw it coming. he dumped me on my a$$! messed up my back for months
&18. Curly Turd.
Please don’t start saying we “didn’t want to kid anyways.” We wanted him, but he didn’t want to (or couldn’t) come here so let’s not act like “attitude issues” are the reason we aren’t pursuing him any longer. If it’s an academic issue so be it, but UK fans acting like we didn’t want him anyways are kidding themselves. We want anyone that can play ball at the highest level and it didn’t work out. Good luck to him and UK will be fine.
Amile Jefferson will sign with Duke at 12pm today, per a source.
Matt you went to The Brian Long School of Appreciation
The people that were waiting in line for the infield were first timers. If you walked around to the front of the line or the other side, you could get right in. But don’t say this on air because you’ll give away my secret.
17- Hard to tell sarcasm from being a troll these days. But I see what you did there
Calipari was warning BCG that Alan Cutler was still chasing him..
Matt: you are such a wimp…couldn’t take the heat! We love you anyway…
#18 – ‘Line 4’ would by my pick for a KSR horse name
Hey, guys, about AD’s shirt……It had running horses on the chest. I thought maybe the Derby people gave it to him to wear for the occasion? Pretty sure it was an “official” deal.
going to oregon tells me that anthony bennett wants free tix to football games and then an NIT ring
7 – Also, Right now Oregons class is made up of one 4 start, and three 3 stars. Bennett isnt making those 3 stars disappear
Clyde’s key to beating the heat is… HYDRATION
The beer is cheaper when you watch the Derby on tv!
Anthony Bennett is a UNLV lean. Mark it.
east ky. cat – ha! thought the lure of a spalding burger and biscuits & gravy at meadowthorpe cafe would be best recruiting way to get him here
Matt, I would have given you a tip to make you include “I’ll have another one” in your Superfecta, all I asked for was a t-shirt. Your loss.
There is a picture of Matt Jones and Drew Franklin singing with Terry Mieners and the Louisville Crashers on the Courier-Journal website. What song were you singing?
Don’t be silly #37 Oregon isn’t going to win the NIT, they won’t even make the NIT.
32) I should have expected it after mentioning Howie Lindsey’s Belly earlier.
Was Joanne Pitino there to enjoy the Derby or to kill Batman?? She made a better Joker than Jack!! Yikes!
it to hot i cant take the heat boo who
Matt and Ryan…came home a winner Saturday…Conchita gave me $20 to place bets on Derby…stuck it in my pocket and came home a winner! How’s that for handicapping?
The fact that Jefferson postponed his announcement shows he is entertaining the idea of coming to UK. Class winds up looking like this
GOODWIN
POYTHRESS
HARROW
NOEL
JEFFERSON
CAULEY
MAYS
WILTJER
Morning Hot Dog would be a good name for a KSR horse
We need some players! Hood and tawny inch blades will not get it done
Goober…Judy,Judy,Judy…
UofL fans must have not seen Pitino? They actually made him THE honorary restroom attendant for THE Millionaires Row restroom. Hè offered me à warm towel And complementory squirt of Curve after plunging my toilet. Nice Guy
I had the chance to meet Goober at OpryLand about 15 years ago. Heck of a nice guy. Threw out some autographs and posed for some pictures with us. RIP Goober.
When I come across someone who is a pathetic, arrogant, jerk… I call them a ‘Clyde’
I am friends with nathan on xbox live.
“Hello Mister President”
The deputy was named Warren
Malcolm Merriweather was the British Cop on the Any Griffth show
38) It was a joke- give it a rest.
Best episode of Andy Griffith is the one where Floyd and Barney get kidnapped by the three escaped female convicts. Close second is the exploding goat.
Isn’t there still eligibilty concerns on Bennett? I am not sure it would have been good on him coming to UK even though it would have been nice. Seems the NCAA already has hawkeyes on us as it is. I say Jefferson is the man to concentrate on now. Without either I think we still have a Final Four team as it is.
they could still get Montrezl Harrell isnt he a big guy
Will Johnny Short’s head explode when there are no seniors on the team?
Amile Jefferson is only ranked a few spots ahead of Cauley-Stein on most of the recruiting sites. If they aren’t going to be elite, I don’t think they’ll be elite even with Jefferson.
When I come acrosss someone who doesn’t suck… I call them a “John short”
Another KSR horse name in honor of John Short- ‘Okey Dokey’
The show was always better with me on it.
Please guys, John Short isn’t funny. Please stop.
Mays and Harrow were never on NC State together. Mays played his FR and SO years, then sat out a year transferring before playing a year at Wichita State.
Why can’t we all be like John Short
UK will be fine without Bennett. Heard his chubbiness would have had been a bad influence on Ryan Lemond anyways. So its a good thing he isn’t coming.
BREAKING NEWS: Young African-American men were excited to meet Barack Obama.
Matt, at this point I don’t think UK gets enough recruits to be as good next season as they were this past season. However, that has nothing to do with whether or not they are an “elite” team in the 2013 tournament. They only have to be better than the other teams in the 2013 tournament and if UL and IU are the best you can offer up then the chances of UK being “elite” are very good. We still have great players coming in and Calipari is the coach. That is a proven combination.
Obama better be glad he didn’t put up a shot[faked one] after catching Eloy’s pass…Anthony would have BLOCKED IT!!!
50. I don’t think Wiltjer will count towards this years class since he was on the team last year. Same for Harrow.
i will never forget George bush trying to bounce that under inflated basketball.
Someone needs to explain to Matt that “The fastest 2 minutes in sports” refers to the actual race … not to attendance!
Is she driving an ice cream truck?
I surprised Johnny Short didn’t give the results of the Derby by starting with Daddy Longs Legs (last place) and work his way up to I’ll Have Another!
Did you show any footage on your TV show of Cal and the trophy going to the Northern part of the state?
Is there a photo anywhere of the ring that was given to Obama other than the blurry one from BWeems’ twitter?
Didn’t turn out = we didn’t shoot it #WesternKYdoesntExist?
Darius should name Brian Long as his running mate for governor. I’m sure he’d appreciate it!
68…Big Uns…would also work…
Joggin’-in-a-Jug
Get some.
Apple Cider Vinegar makes you $hit like crazy. It cleanses your system. Thats why you lose weight.
I love the other horse names…How about “Brasssoooowww!” or Egg Sucking Dog.
Amish doctors can also raise some good barns.
Always Ernest T Bass who always liked to throw a rocks threw windows. Best episode with him was when Andy lined up Mrs. Wiley to teach him manners so he could find a girl to date. There was a big dance one night and no matter what anyone said to him he would respond “How do you do Mrs. Wiley”
Apple Cider Vinegar is great idea. I might try that after I get back in from my rain dance and Shaman prayers.
If you get the Apple Cider vinegar at Romony Rd Kroger, you can get the John Short discount.
90- shame, too, b/c I hear the Amish women don’t raise too many tents
If UT had a Derby horse a good name would be “Low Down Dirty Snitches”
I would like for everyone to please stop using my name and Mr. Bennett’s name in the same sentence. AND, for the record, I am NOT as dumb as Mr. Bennett.
Apple Cider Vinegar cures a LOT of ailments. It is very popular among the homeopathic crowd. It’s almost as useful as snake oil.
79. Rick Pitino already has dibs on the “fastest 15 seconds!”
WAR NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE BRIAN LONG BEHIND THE PRESIDENT!!
99 – wrong show tough guy
91…love Ernest T…”don’t ask me no questions and I’ll tell you no lies”…Classic!
BCG was drinking apple cider vinegar that famous night he didnt’ remember where he played golf.
I think Matt was referring to wind chimes earlier. It would have complimented the Trophy Tour video.
Can we get a picture of Ryan??
97- When Sonny Smith and Wimp Sanderson had their radio show back in the 90’s, every Wednesday, Wimp would give a new home remedy for apple cider vinegar. He had a book that he claimed was over 3″ thick that was full of uses for vinegar.
Radney Foster is awesome. Shannon can you play “Texas in 1880” for the next Bump.
I would also like for people to stop using my name an that Obama fella’s name in the same sentense. Did ya see him struggle without his teleprompter at the ‘UK day at the White House.’ At least I can give a 5 minute talk without a teleprompter and without reminding people that my college transcript is missing for a reason.
Matt,
I was at the WH when the Cats came in. Watching Anthony Davis walk through the magnetometer was classic. Also, I’ve never seen a television crew (ESPN) follow anyone else around the WH besides POTUS and FLOTUS. The power of the BBN!
I think Borel’s horse was DQ’ed (hence 19th. there were 2 DQ’ed)
Is there an amish medical school?
Another horse name- ‘Vasectomy Madness’
Hey Fatty Ryan,
Apple Cider Vinegar will just make you pee alot. Fish oil is great for your heart, but will not cause you lose weight…the only thing is good diet and excercise…quit eating bread and pasta (carbs a plenty)…eat low carb (less than 80 day), stay under 1800 cal…quit eating so much fruit, high carbs….and get off your lazy Hoosier Ass!
UKSCOTTY
Watching on TV they kept showing a group people with 2 extremely pale blonde ladies who looked like Karen Sypher…was weird.
Who needs Lt Jones from the Police Academy movies when you have Ryan Lemond.
Let this guy know that the show is only on 10-12 so he isn’t calling for 5 months.
I’ve always wondered if Ryan knows if he’s on a radio show?
I said out loud…”my gosh there are a lot of blind listeners”. Then it occurred to me…
“Alternative Medicine Practitioner” = I have a license to sell weed
110- yes, but they can only attend during Rumspringa.
LJ is a very chatty, hippy, blind massage therapist who enjoys very slow, deliberat, dog lead walks on the beach.
I can’t wait for Ryan to ask LJ if he ever saw Junior Seau play.
113…saw that too…possible time off for good behavior?
I’m getting sleepy. THis blind jesus dude should look into a career in hypnotism.
Matt, Gary Parrish is about to tweet you concerning your Junior Seau theories.
L.J. is a pansey who couldn’t cut it playing football.
LOL at Matt rendering the hippie speechless with his comment!!
What à coincidence… I give free weekend Mammograms, thats à type of massage? Im not blind though. 🙁
“Uhhhh…okay.” LJ
Classic Monday quote.
I wanted to hear what he had to say…
douche bag move matt
I think LJ looked up to Eeyore as a kid.
Ryan can quit being a lazy news report. Good genetics help as well but he obviously can’t fix that.
I love how Mr. Alternative Medicine has a neurosurgeon…
Way to go Matt, you just lost your long haired blend hippy demographic… LOL, ratings will surly suffer…
133 – spot on!
Yeah… That was pretty low Matt
I keep waiting for Wayne to channel his inner Eli Manning. “Red 25, Red 25, OMAHA, OMAHA”
Bennett looks like a complete moron anyways…and he’s greasy. Gross.
ukscotty – that’s the kind of advice i need right there brother! it’s gonna happen…or my wife is gonna start holding out
Matt!!! Big liberal boy can’t even listen to any alternative medicine talk. Very progressive.
127…are you the guy I met in Mexico a few years ago that called himself the “Spermanator”? His practice involved the same services…
L1C10%
Connor Tucker ‘s looking really good now, ain’t hè? Could’ve been à senior this year!!! WE COULD’VE HAD HIM!!!!! FAR CAL!!!!!!!
Jax Teller – i just like doing the buzzer to get matt mad at me
119) RUMSPRINGA!! WHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Can ONE UL fan that calls in, not fit the UL stereotype. This dude thinks that fast talk is going to cover up his ignorance. THEY WILL NOT WIN.
Guess you have to have short hair to be heard on KSR.
Well, I really believe in Santa Claus, so I bet I’m finally going to get that GameBoy I wanted but never got in 1994.
Yip.. That was me Jimi!! Lol
I must say without ryan I don’t listen to this show.
“It’s unfortunate what we find pleasing to the touch and pleasing to the eye is seldom the same.”
I was going to make a joke about how wayne can’t call in until about 10:45 b/c it takes him a few hours to get his line beard straight until he complimented Ryan.
I believe LJ was the one giving free massages at Richies AG summit at Griffin Gate
What is the story with the “L1C4” comments. I am relatively new to the KSR site and I don’t know the back story…
hes blowed away
So that guy can qualify academically, but Anthony Bennett and others are having trouble? Wow.
Archie sounds like he’s been hanging with Darnell Dodson and Rekalin Sims.
This guy has listened to ‘The Carter’ one too many times.
You guys are so white.
mw wildcatking – you speak the truth! the vaughn side of my family have the belly!!!
I wonder if Archie knows or has spoken with LJ, the caller with predictably long hair?
its Gucci Man. Burr!
He said “we’re in here, we eatin.” It means that we in here and we’re thriving and succeeding.
We eatin means we are getting ours, we are doing well, we are doing our thing, etc.
He’s saying “BURR” at the end..like Gucci Mane
Hire me Matt… I get your jokes, i won’t mess up your intro’s. It’s obvious from that clip that hes been haging out with Darnell Dodson, And that ‘s not à great thing. It does explain his eating munchies though.
Can we get a video of a convo b/w Archie and Bookie and have Matt break it down?
Luther the OC — original caller
Matt…did you expect Archie to end his video with “keep cool in the Kentucky breeze.”
149…Cool,thought I recognized the MO…
People hang up when they’re on hold too long.
The Big Blue Needle – i feel the same way. i was done with him until he actually sounded sincere about my health!
This guy is too violent…is he a football player?
“we eating” means we hungry… As in we ready to play… We ready for Noth of title…and burr is a way of saying bye…
Archie is saying “Burrrr” at the end of the video. “Burrr” is a rap add-lib that Gucci Mane uses in his songs. Gucci Mane also has a stage name that he goes by that is “Gucci Mane La Flare” hence his Twitter name.
Burrrr as in it’s cold
I understand the neutral site games and reasons for it, but what about the crappy home schedule for season ticket holders?
Show topics for the Afternoon Underdogs:
-Why they hate UK
-Why Swopshire looks like Bobby Perry
-How Can Pitino have success like he did at UK
-Telling people that they don’t talk about UK as much as everyone says.
Ryan could supply some beef next year…just kidding Ryan…
We eatin means… Gettin ours
What ever happened to speaking in plain English? Isn’t it easier to just say, “Hello Kentucky fans! This is Archie. I’m doing good! Can’t wait for next year! See you then! Goodbye!”
Can we get Matt to start referencing Gucci Mane lyrics a la Jay Bilas with Jeezy?
Archie heard about the contest and was mocking Ryan when he said ‘We eatin’
I’m callin it … This year is the end of the reign of the SEC in college football…. USC. Will win national championship with 75 players… Mark my words… NO SEC DEFENCE HAS PLAYED AGAINST A SUPERIOR OFFENCE THAT USC POSSESSES!
Now I’m cool with ebonics and all, but saying “burr” and other such nonsense is just stupid. The power some of these “rappers” have over their fans — to get them to say things like “burr” and act like that is cool — is just ridiculous.
How can you worry about Anthony Bennett after Goober has died? “Judy, Judy, Judy”
its in the work for Michael waltrip to drive a ky championship car at ky speedway http://annistonstar.com/view/full_story/18468990/article-Bowyer-to-drive-Alabama-National-Championship-Toyota?instance=sports_top
we eatin’: we’ve gathered and prepared aliment and are currently masticating it for digestion.
185…WORD…wink,wink,nudge,nudge…
188 — Excellent work
“BBN, ya lake dags?” Should have been in Jefferson’s post.
Head Bussa- Booyah!
185) Saying things like “that is cool” like it’s something trendy and popular to say is just ridiculous.
188…AKA taking vittles…
great point with the comment about where the UK/IU games would be played and how that debunks the “Cal is scared” thoughts.
ummmmmmmmm……
Al with no filter. hahaha
I love Charro
Maybe IU thinks they can go undefeated if they don’t have to play the CATS.
I used to yell Rock N’ Roll, stick out my tongue and make the Ronny James Dio sign of the horns…that doesn’t seem too ridiculous.
Can one have hootchie without the cootchie?
The cuchee cuchee chick? That Charro?
Today is the first show in KSR history to feature both “Burrr” & “coochie.”
what happened to devonta pollard/!??!!??!
Does the chick in the “singles” banner ad showing really live 2.8 miles from me?
Archie Goodwin:
“We eatin’ coochie…”
Shooting has to be the priority for next year’s team. Love the idea of Mays because they wouldn’t be tied to him for more than a year, and he shot the lights out last year, albeit at Wright St. Shooters are shooters, get him.
If you had “coochie” in words you can say on KSR bingo, please cross it off. I’m still holding out hope for “cooter” or “va-jay-jay”.
We eating’ coochie…. BRRassow!!!
Somebody needs to tell Al to be the bottom for a while.
His belly will magically disappear that way.. just like her breasts do.
I hate that Bennett decided not to come but I’m glad Lyons went to Arizona. We didn’t need a player with anger issues.
Jimi,Garden of Eden – congrats on your derby win my friend. any time you walk out with money in your pocket that’s a big win!!!!
Sorry 206 you beat me to the punch
208- I need “Hoo Ha” for my cover all.
Doron Lamb was consistantly overlooked, even as he scored 22 in the NC game. Miller finally got some love, but both of them hit huge 3s in several NCAA tourney games that ended teams runs, or extended UK’s run. Gotta have at least two guys who can hit 40+% from behind the arc.
“Had a surgery on a vericose vein”…this story sounds made up.
Rondo has been in beast mode against the Hawks. Huge triple-double Friday night which was first NBA player in playoff history with 17 pts, 14 rbs, 12 assts and 4 steals and 20 pts & 16 assts last night in another win.
Destined to be one of the brightest bulbs on vegas’ marquee? I think not….
193 — Your point has no relevance. We’ll see if “burr” makes it into mainstream usage. I highly doubt it. But if you want to use it and look stupid then don’t let me stop you.
If alternative medicine really worked, it would be called ACTUAL medicine.
If we had to listen to the Art Carney story we should have heard what LJ had to say.
212…Thanks Ryan,that’s the way I look at it although Conchita was NOT amused! Go figure…
I missed the first hour, having surgery. Did we get the Lucas kid?
Bob Hook is at Churchill Downs right now waiting for the Derby to start
Run DMC
Pete Thamel will soon be on the scene to ensure Ethan is listening in Algebra 2 BEFORE he listens in Algebra 3. Pete is the algebra compliance needle.
219) So when 50 year old white dudes start saying it, then it’s okay with you? lol…I don’t use it, but I’m sure that when kids started saying “cool”, or “awesome”, it was called idiotic and stupid. So my point was completely relevant.
MGK (Machine Gun Kelly)
I can’t believe you didn’t include Bubba Sparxxx or Paul Wall in your white-guy rappers who get credit list.
Michael Waltrip has one 3 races 2 Daytona’s and 1 at Talladega.
Does steve get on anybody elses nerves
The sounds coming from the nearest double-wide says Kid Rock is one.
229- Snow, the informer, sold them out.
Let’s get our boy Derrike Cope to drive the UK car!
Ryan can name all the members of Salt N Peppa, list their birthdays and sing the lyrics to Shoop, but cannot name two Beastie Boys songs.
231…YES,most tarheels do…
Derrike Cope, lmao
Ego Trip is another white rapper that gets a lot of respect.
MATT CAN WE GET A DEVONTA P UPDATE?
Give em the GAS FACE!
Barney’s belly is green. IMPOSTER!!!!
travis – it was all about the salt! smokin hot
I hate Fake Barney…..
3rd Base is another great white hip hop group
Matt, bring Will Mapes to KY Speedway and I’ll grant you both use of the nicest restroom trailer / executive toilet you’ve ever seen. This ain’t no rest area.
No offense to Carolina Steve, But everytime I hear him talk it smothers me.
Matt is the anti-vanetti…love it!!!
UL are just miserably fixated on everything UK…word is UL fans will boycott college bball this year because the NCAA awarded UK the trophy last year
Yawnnnnnn
227- My initial post stated that I’m fine with ebonics or slang. It’s just the usage of a sound like “brr” that is silly. That’s like Master P saying “ughhhhhhhhh” and everybody in my old high school walking around going “ugggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!”. That is extremely laughable looking back. I’m pretty sure though that kids using the word “awesome” was proper usage of the adjective.
Any word on if Harrow’s made any improvements with his peremeter shooting? I think he shot 22% from behind the arc last year, and only 39% overall. I’d be happy with a really good ball distributor, but I would love it if he could manage hitting 3’s at even a Teague-like consistancy.
If LJ is coming back on the show then now is the time when I say “C u later”
Oh neat the Chris Cross show is on!
This dude smokes pot all day everyday
Fire that lettuce up LJ!
#243 How can you hate Fake Barney?
Haha…true! But we got to educate you on some new music, man. There’s more music out there than just Rascal Flats and 90’s boy/girl bands.
Fitting after the most exciting 2 minutes in sports we have…LJ and 2 minutes of kale.
You down wit MSOP?…..yeah you know me!!
Ryan I have a feeling if you start using LJ’s “alternative medicine” you are only going to be hungrier
I DID NOT KNOW HOW HOTT LANE KIFFINS WIFE WAS!!!! WOW!!!!!
243 — Agree. Not a big fan.
259- that really made me laugh
How in the hell does the holistic guy know he’s prescribing Kale to his clients? Couldn’t it just as easily be ice”buurrr”g lettuce? He’s freaking blind people.
Bobby Ann Mason, and That ain’t my truck
227) I gotcha- As you pointed out, we all did and said many things that were stupid when we were seniors in HS, but at the time we thought were cool. Whether its the influence of rappers, rockers, or Hollywood, we all imitate people/things we identify with. It’s just his way of expressing himself, and it’s peachy-keen with me.
Rick trevino-bobby ann mason
You could play early/mid 90’s country for hours and find…MAYBE…two songs that aren’t great.
Erin Andrews throwing up the 3-goggles at the Derby…yes, please.
http://bustedcoverage.com/2012/05/07/erin-andrews-trying-to-3-goggle-at-derby-but-that-stupid-hat-is-in-the-way-photos/
Tell Carolina Steve to get his facts straight before he calls into a radio show flapping his gums. Micheal Waltrip has 4 wins. 2 Daytona 500, 1 race at Talladega and 1 July race at Daytona. Oh and East Carolina sucks…
266- I hear ya. I developed Tourette’s in the mid 80’s as a Sam Kinison fan.
266 — Agreed.
Anthony Bennett would have done better in school but he didn’t have room in his backpack for all his books. It would only hold 3 packs of mini snickers if he wanted to keep his diabetes medicine too.
I agree with Ryan, we are KENTUCKY, and we should take on the best (hardest) schedule – Matt is starting to sound as arrogant as Cal is acting.
We don’t play tourney games at home…playing the better teams at neutral sites is much more valuable to younger teams if winning in the post-season is important to you as a fan…
IMO…best place to watch a game is the Garden of Eden…of course I’m biased…
Our 2012-13 HOME schedule was only going to have Indiana anyway. Replace that game with Michigan/Kansas/Ohio State/Arizona/UCLA and we’re fine.
I heard Tolly Ho had a new burger in anticipation of Anthony Bennett’s arrival. I guess we will never see it. Wonder what it would have been? Gigantic Ho?
J in Orlando – no doubt LJ meds would get you 10-20
256- First off I hate real Barney, But I in no way hate real Barney as much as I hate Fake Barney. Reasons? Maybe the nasially voice, the moaning, the fact that he calls so often. I mean come on, this makes our fan base looks even worse. I just don’t understand why a grown man feals the need to call a talk show in a fake Barney voice. Next call please, I have about quit listening because of this guy. Love John Short (he’s authentic), love Big Brother, Love Da truth (authentic). Please bring something to the show besides a bad nasilly purple dinosaur impression. Stop it…..
Matt, with the way you’re throwing around those free t-shirts, he could be on to something
LJ – you made me laugh on that one
These dudes don’t remember the Matt Jones / Rob Gidel days. Everyone of us (all six of us) knew the future of KSR then!
Terrible spelling on my last post. fml.
I loved Patrick Patterson’s comment to Matt over the weekend that KSR would not exist and Matt would be working at K-Mart if he didn’t commit to KY. Was the first site crash when Patterson committed to the Cats?
FAKE BARNEY > Truth…
Of course Ryan wouldn’t walk in a cemetery, he won’t walk further than his car.
YES 🙂
Plenty of people run through cemetaries. I do it all the time at the Zachary Taylor National Cemetary.
On Capitol Hill we’ve combined the cemetery and dog park.
My wife teaches Jazzercise. Honest truth.
No…its disrespectful
It’s kinda weird but I don’t see anything wrong with it. I vote yes.
Cemetery is good place to be alone with your thoughts. Jogging/walking in your spandex..not so much.
I think it’s OK to walk or run through a cemetery but I wouldn’t personally do it.
I want sweet, sweet revenge on Gardner Webb! Bring in Gardner Webb!!!!
No, I would think it is somewhat disrespectful. It would be weird to me too. There are many others place to walk or jog.
Yes, it’s OK.
they have an annual race in cincinnati that thousands of people participate called “run like hell” through a cemetary.
Matt, you can’t deny that your white castle eating contest brings in the 5 star kids.
Running in graveyard….KALE NO !!
Shows you how stupid he is! You would have to be the dumbest person on planet earth to not want to come to UK. Yo AB, you’re a turd in the wind buddy!
It’s ok to run through a cemetary only if you are passing out t-shirts to the deceased.
No running or walking in the cemetery. It is a solemn place. No running up and down church aisles either.
NO – Not OK to exercise there unless it’s completely empty. I know when visiting my brother, I’d feel a little put off by someone trouncing through (even on a path) disrespecting a personal, emotional, and private moment. There are plenty of places to run/ride bikes that are less invasive.
When I was a child, I used to ride my bike around the cemetery in Columbia. We always stayed on the path.
Yes, it’s okay. My babysitter took me when I was little. She was certainly God-fearing.
yeah its fine to walk in cemetary. I know people who had engagement pics taken at Lexington Cemetary
It’s OK to run through a cemetary when the zombie apocalypse begins.
If you think exercising in a cemetery is bad, what would you think about Washington, DC’s Congressional Cemetery being used as a dog park?
Mrs. Landingham would not want you running near her grave (a little West Wing reference for Matt).
thegoosewasgolden – i agree. i just think kentucky should play anybody, anywhere. i look down on programs that play a weak non-conference schedule. kentucky is better than that. we played a hell of a schedule last year and last year turned out ok
NOT!!!!
running etc in a cemetery? The residents don’t mind…
Run all you want, Matt. Cemetaries are some of our best public spaces (Lexington’s is especially nice), and going IN to do something that will ultimately keep you OUT seems like a great use. Appreciating the beauty of the landscape is respectful in and of itself.
As an update to my comment about riding my bike in the cemetery…
We would always stay away when there was a graveside service or something like that going on. It was really close to my grandmothers house and traffic was low/non existent so it was a safe place for us.
They walk in the cemetary because they do not have a walking track.
Sexn would say it’s not disrespectful to do the wild thing on a grave. So running is OK.
Then quit listening jackass
I understand the “logic” of Cal’s approach to scheduling but I would much rather we play a top notch schedule…even if it means a few losses
Mayor Gray is building downtown parks and creeks so you don’t have run through cemeteries.
Anyone that doesn’t like Fake Barney, I don’t want to know.
280-Looks like someone has on Grumpy Pants. HeeHooHoo 😉
I won’t run through a cemetery out of respect for the families of those in cemetery.
Run through the graveyard? Yes.
Whistle? Nope.
Mitch B. laying down the cash!
running in cemetery – yes.
The Door is what made KSR.
Running along the paths in a cemetary is fine
Those types of fans as well Matt. I don’t appreciate those fans either, but I do not hear these fans on KSR everyday or “twicw a week”. Ryan, He calls more than once or twice a week. I wish Anthony Bennett the best, I would ever do this to a 18 yr old kid and don’t want UK fans to either.
Fake Barney is awesome and is part of the show…deal with it.
Twice*
This is why I love this site and the people that hang out here.
Last week: “Once we get Bennett we’ll have the #1 class and on the way to #9!”
Today: “We really don’t need Bennett; he’s got an attitude problem and his transcript issues; we are better off without him.”
My guess is that his transcript and attitude really didn’t change too much in the last couple of months.
Here’s hoping he becomes a Beaver- that would fit him just fine. It was already time to move on.
Ha, i remember when it was a “sure” thing, that we were either getting Bennett, or Oriahki.
hope mj didnt get any cigar ashes on his cream puff suit. trie giving him a hug on way out gate 10 but couldnt get close, he is a fast walker. watch those dirty birds and go bbn
