Sting is in studio! (Monday Show Thread)
Good morning and welcome to a very special edition of Kentucky Sports Radio. Today, Matt is back in the studio for the first time in two weeks after his road trip across the country, and what better way to celebrate his return than an interview with former WCW Champ STING? Sting, the father of new UK TE Steven Borden, will join Matt and Ryan to talk about his son, his new career in the TNA, and hopefully any stories our wrestling geeks ask for.
Join in on the fun by calling (502) 571-1080.

Finally! Matt Jones, has comeback to K.R.S.! Glad to see Sting finally getting on the show, maybe he can help us get Ric Flair on the show? Also, Matt what was Fake David Beckham talking about the last time you were on the show about you and Chris Cross?
Welcome back Uncle Matt! It’s story time! I want to hear some great stories.
I finally got to hold my daughter for the first time! Very cool! pic.twitter.com/Z2miMXtnf7
Welcome back Matthew!!! How many egg white McMuffins did you have on your trip?
Welcome back Matt and we all missed you very much 🙂
TT, Sting is actually in Studio for the interview or over the phone?
Welcome back Matt, will their be another best of show this Friday to make it 3weeks in a row?
JB, awesome pic! I hope everything is going well. I’ll keep saying a little prayer for your little girl.
has Matt been gone?
nice photoshop on that sign Matty Boy! #FAKE
Would be interested to have Matt recap his thoughts on the 7 shows while he was gone, ie. Chris from Richmond
Who is Matt Jones? I’ve never heard of him. That’s my point of view.
1. He was talking about Matts apology to CC and trying to get him to say something
UK_JB, I’m sure that was an awesome moment!
Aww!! The gang is all here!!
2 – Very cool. Hope things keep working out and she keeps gaining weight and staying healthy.
In all honesty how many average Americans can take a 2week vacation?
10) haha Chris from Richmond, and Clay Travis… I feel like Dave Baker has some splain’ to do…
You should come to Knoxville on your tour…I’m certain that you would have a great showing. I see UK stuff down here a lot more than I ever thought I would.
Matt i go to Sedona every year did you enjoy it what sites did you visit there, (cathedral rock, slide rock, how long did it take you to get the red dust off your shoes
Matt went to Royals game? I thought he hated baseball, and the Royals haven’t played what could be called baseball in a long time!
Matt, Forget something? It might be appropriate to thank all of those who hosted or co-hosted the show while you were gone.
oh man. i hate IU fans but i live in Indianapolis and it’s not bad!
See, this is why a GPS is important.
Shannon thinks Green tea is not better than soda. This is why he’s doing radio and not in the medical field.
Man, I have missed neurotic Matt!
You should have used the Seinfeld excuse!
In 8 more miles or so, there’s a nice Pilot AND a Flying J after that Poseyville exit.
UofL Fans would have gone crazy with that if you actually got arrested for public urination.
Frame it!
Seinfeld = “uromysitisis”

I can’t imagine a bigger wimp than Matt.
Somebody must have peed on a combine!
How come you didn’t drop a “Don’t you know who I am?” on the cop, Matt?
I guess the call someone was peeing on a mailbox… more important!
A t-shirt with Matt’s mugshot would probably be KSR SHOP’s best seller of all time!
“No sir, this is your lucky day. Do you know who I am?”
Matt,
Is this the spot?

PS — I moved to Indy from Louisville four years ago. No doubt it’s the worst city in America.
The scene of the crime, with tractor is on the Internet….

A couple officers pulled this stuff on me at Keeneland a few years back on Bluegrass Stakes day. We were in the bus lot and they had 1 port o pot within a half mile radius and were shocked that I walked INTO a grouping of bushes/small trees that was far away from all crowds (they were about 10 ft high) to relieve myself.
Officer said, well what if that family has kids and they are out playing and see you relieving yourself here. I looked over, the house was easily a mile away.
31, you’re right, he should of punched that cop in the face… dumbass.
Aye boy, better watch where you point that thing
“Now here at the Rock we have two rules. Rule number one: obey all rules. Rule number two: no peeing on our tractors.”
Buzz was a bad boy!!
Can we please work on getting a KSR affiliate in Owensboro? I want to listen to the show!!!
I really enjoyed Gregg Doyle’s show.
He had Chris Rock and Peyton Manning to. Big line up
But Ricky P pulled out!!
Watermelon makes you pee so they should be used to people peeing everywhere.
Jurich sold his soul to the devil that is why they are winning everything!
Posey County Cantaloupe’s are some of the best in America, they are the ones with the big rinds on them
Thanks all!
Hey Ryan did you ever find out what happened to Jarred Prickett last week?
you gotta let it develop a good story has a beginning a middle and an end
If this tractor was owned by a Tennessee fan, I don’t see a problem
Sources close to the situation say Polson had no say so just like Twanny had no say so in giving his #10 to Archie
Ramon Harris gave #34 to DeAndre Liggins. A few years ago.
I like Polson giving up his number. The twins will confuse opponents with the numbers 5,2. ” I thought he was my guy”
Welcome back Matt. Posey county has the best watermelons and cantaloupes.
Great story.
I lived in Indy for 7 yrs. For people that think it’s a terrible city have obviously not lived there or have no idea what they are doing while they are there.
56) Good point. The best player in history changed his number from 23 to 45, so why can’t Ramon Harris or Jarrod Polson?
http://goo.gl/maps/lHjkK
The honest truth will never come out about Polson and his jersey #
We’re talking about a former walk on getting preference over a lottery pick. Andrew Harrison gets the number he wants.
Matt, Did you realize you were peeing dangerously close to the Poseyville Police Department…. That little one room brick Building across the street 🙂
https://www.google.com/maps?q=poseyville,+In+police+department&hl=en&ll=38.171671,-87.77983&spn=0.000707,0.001399&sll=38.171671,-87.77983&sspn=0.000712,0.001399&t=h&hq=police+department&hnear=Poseyville,+Posey,+Indiana&fll=38.171593,-87.779756&fspn=0.000707,0.001399&z=20&layer=c&cbll=38.171617,-87.779977&panoid=iXKHcfgHqfxmaMEXYZ5rnQ&cbp=12,345.72,,0,0
I can’t even imagine a conversation between Lemond and Crazy Curtis. We would need a translator.
Paducah Patty – yes, jared was arrested in poseyvill for peeing on a tractor. just kidding. he just forgot that day
What if Harrison wore #15 or #22??? Does it make a difference?
I’m sure there will be a “price” paid for the number or at the very least some sort of trade off.
Truth be told, Chris from Richmond is actually from Winchester. As he said.
Matt, Polson should tell Harrison he can have the number only if all stats accumulated go toward Polson’s career stats
It’s okay to switch numbers… Cousin Ryan Lemond went from 18 to 27. It’s okay.
Taking up for Joker is laughable. He’s a complete failure who took a solidly mediocre program and ran into completely into the ground. I don’t care if he’s a former player or not, I don’t ever want him on campus again.
Hopefully Polson got a post-dated check for $10,000 for his trouble. Cash it after the twins get drafted.
This jersey thing is a made up controversy. I’ll bet you Polson couldn’t care less.
What if the #5 was retired and Andrew said he won’t come to UK unless we un-retire the number? Would we do that?
Matt my dad has a bed pan in his van and uses that in case of emergency then dumps it out usually next to a tractor.
When they hang Polson’s jersey in the rafters, what number will they use?
Once had to give up my helmet in a football game to a better player. Yes…it sucked.
Tell Polson that when he starts pooping ice cream he can have his number back. Just kidding I love Jared!
You can be glad Joker is gone without disparaging him. He didn’t cheat and his failure wasn’t malicious.
69 would be pretty random.
You have to ask for special permission to have digits greater than 5 in your number…
Can’t have digits 6-10 in your number in college basketball. 55 is the highest you can be.
POlson should Take 0 so we have a 00 and a 0.
basketball cant have a # greater than 55 or 5 in either digit due to refs having to indicate numbers on their hands
6-9*
Can’t have a number over 5 in basketball right?
College Jersey numbers don’t go over #55
They actually don’t have any numbers that include a 6, 7, 8 or 9 because of how the officials indicate players based on jersey numbers (one hand per digit)
You can’t be no. 99 or 73. In college each number can only be 0-5. This is done so the referees can use each hand to show the players number. Can’t believe you all didn’t know that.
Thought you couldn’t have a number > 55 NCAA basketball? Isn’t that why Jorts chose it?
84) right. I think 45 is pretty random
60-
I live in Indy. I have for the last 5 years. It’s a pathetic excuse for a city. For anyone considering moving to Indianapolis, please read this first.
http://www.city-data.com/forum/indianapolis/1672542-young-professional-looking-move-indy.html
You can’t be any number higher than 55 in college. No 6, 7, 8 or 9’s are allowed on jersey’s.
sean – you’re right. in the nfl or nba if a player gets traded to a new team, he’ll often “buy” his number from another player if it’s already taken. great idea you had!
Dennis Rodman wore 73 for a season.
Matt is feisty today. Though he’d be mellow after two damn weeks away!
In high school and college, the highest single number a player can have is 5. The highest 2 digit number is 55. Officials have to be able report numbers with 1 hand.
Im listening to the show from Gary, Indiana. They evict you from hotels for smoking but they arrest you for peeing by tractors in Poseyville. Its a weird state
Why didn’t the cop walk over to the Pozyville police department to use the restroom. Is the gas station better than the police department bathroom?
Did Matt just say he watched him mom take it?
It’s not the point of being a jerk. The point of the “Do you know who I am?” argument is that it equals radio gold. Ten times more funny if that had happened.
On May 10, 2012, Denver NBC affiliate 9News reported that Andersen’s home was the target of an investigation of a suspected Internet criminal case by the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office Internet Crimes Against Children Unit. Andersen was not charged with any crimes. His lawyer said that Andersen was the victim of an extortion attempt, and that the case “had nothing to do with children”.
Extortion attempt. Was not charged with anything.
Chris Anderson was accused of statutory rape.

UL was the sponsor of the tatoo convention. I think the Birdman went to UL then Pitino told him to leave.
98….. Really? I hope that you are not serious
(While this joke is hack) – Ask Sting “In a match scheduled for one fall with a 15 second time limit, describe a fight against Rick Pitino”
Ask him if he is ever gonna wrestle undertaker!
Matt Jones puts the P in Poseyville
Pretty sure BaseBrawl is a house show and not PPV
Ask Sting about Slammiversary and does he like working with Hogan again?
Jarrod Polson non-controversy – yet another reason we miss Bill Keightley. What would Mr. Bill do?
93. I agree, you should all read that… It’s a joke of a forum. The post was made by a throw-away account created at the time of the post… What a joke man.
Matt ask Sting what’s the possibility he finishes his career with a run with WWE.
Ask him to hit Shannon the Dude with a steel chair.
Would Sting do a cage match with Za’Darius Smith for charity?
The Heat are getting a lot of praise for last night’s win, but I still expect the Spurs to win this series. Tony Parker was not able to get into a groove last night and the Spurs still had the lead midway thru the third quarter. They had a lead even though they were playing an ugly game and looked to be in no flow offensively as a team. Parker wasn’t playing great, but he will not play two bad games in a row and will come back strong in Game 3. The Spurs will be extremely hard to beat in these next two at games in San Antonio.
Ask Sting about tantric sex.
107. 98 is correct. I refed for 6 years. It has been about 7 years since my last game but then the largest number you could wear was 5 in each digit.
Ask Sting if life was different as a blonde?
I’ve got goosebumps listening to him… this is awesome!
What is the strength coach doing that is on “the cutting edge”?
122. I agree, Im pumped
Is he bringing the Bat to Base Brawl?
Michaels hasn’t wrestled since retirement. He has been on TV
Have to love the excitement in his voice talking about the coaches and the stuff they are doing. Selling the family is a huge part of recruiting. To sell a guy who’s job involves taking care of his body on the strength and conditioning program and have him rave about it is a testament to the staff.
#110 Good one!
Ask Sting how he felt performing with Bruno Mars at the Grammy’s.
For the love of god, ASK STING ABOUT THE SHOCKMASTER!!!!!! He’ll laugh and it’ll be a good story.
123 he is using electronics to monitor athletes and make sure they are working as hard as they should or not over working causing injuries.also have heard rumors of them using GPS to keep them out of fast food joints. they have adopted a dynamic warmup that has been doing wonders for pro athletes, which i have now adopted for youth football players.
Matt, Ive heard that Coach Cal Is very interested In bring In Dante Exum mid-season. Is there a chance Polson or Hood wont be on scholarship In order to make that happen?
My favorite Sting moment was when he got his Battle Bowl ring from Hank Aaron. Very cool moment.
It’s Whitaker Bank Ballpark now, that’s my point of view.
Louisville fans won’t mess with you!
Sting’s battles with Flair were EPIC! I remember when they went to a 60 minute draw at the first Clash of the Champions. Classic.
you have to get Sting to wear blue and white face paint for the tailgate
Lorenzon will be great on pregame show
Nice interview. Sting sounded very happy his son is at UK.
Sting is a good spokesman for UK football. Hype is what he does. I love the excitement and him at a pregame would be awesome.
I’m a little late to the show thread…But with Sting in the studio, has the Ryan/Sting/folding chair date been set? Would make for a good pre-game stunt to perhaps have Sting jump off the top of the gator and crush Ryan with a folding chair. Joking of course, we couldn’t risk Sting twisting an ankle over some silly stunt.
You’ll definitely need a bigger gator!
Jared lorenzen tailgating? Im sure john short and romney rd Kroger are very excited about this.
i would guess flo-ree-AHL
I love Matt’s inflection when he says that new guy’s name.
Jared…….my favorite guest/ co-host. He has more stories than the Empire State Building!
In Wolfe County, we made shirts that said NWO ( New Wolfe Order )
Less likely to eat at Canes
I LOVE ME SOME CANES!!!!!!!
Young will be #1 and Randle #30
Matt if we are getting rid of talking about the JP era can we PLEASE never hear another word about BG…That was a bigger disaster that JP.
STONE COLD WILLOW IS A DAD, LET THAT SET IN FOR A SECOND. There is hope for everyone.
Jared has always been a team player, I can see him giving it up voluntarily.
i think polson is very happy to have a scholarship dont think anything else matters to him
oh my lord u from lexington they the big blue
Theeey derk eeerr nummmmbers!!
Polson did the right thing giving up #5
Matt, if a kid says “I want such and such number if I come to your school” and we take it away from another player, THAT is the reason those young kids have a sense of entitlement. I know that’s how it works nowadays, but it’s pretty pathetic.
It was rght below Jim Mora’ interview when he was with the Falcon’s…. “Playoffs? Playoffs?”
158 who said thats what happened? pay attention
98.1 WBUL-FM plays a great verison of that song that includes Kentucky Wildcats
Sting could no excape my figure four leg lock
Given how Cal never makes promises about playing time, etc., I doubt he makes promises about a uniform number. I imagine he went to Polson to ask him how he felt about changing numbers and I bet Polson didn’t have to think about it more than 2 seconds.
Gene Mean Sting never excaped my camel clutch
Once again the single guy host, leaves out the other single people
Matt, do you handle divorce cases?
The comedian that did this on twitter has some hysterical responses.
Don’t do it, Ryan.
This would be so much better had this not been done already and has a million great responses already. I mean you should have at least personalized it or made it original.
Why not have it be a text that says “Listen, I’m thinking about becoming a UofL fan”
Cause this way it’s a KSR thing and hasn’t been done a million times before
… Someone is losing a relationship because of this…
Our pledge to you, loyal and devoted members of the BBN,
our football team will never be 2-10 again and our basketball team will never again get beat by Robert Morris in the first round of the NIT
Even lower arena tix to Big Blue Madness aren’t worth the craziness that would ensue from that text message. No thanks. Looking forward to seeing what person thinks so little of their significant other to try it tho!
Matt, what happened to you out West? What kind of contest is this?
where do we send this screen shot?
as a youth football coach i have been trained on how to coach football the right way its called the heads up approach most kids get head or neck injuries by hitting others with the top of their helmet if you can teach them to use their facemask instead it will reduce injuries also helmets are designed better and are readily available today
Matt, On the pregame shows each week we need a segment of Sting cutting a wrestling promo on the team we play
Let the filming begin in 5. 4. 3. 2. 1…
I just text messaged my son for the Big Blue Madness ticket challenge. He’s worried that the pre-game kisses have ended.
I’m going to cut the net off of his goal in the driveway to really drive it home.
The couples who listen to KRS together, stay together.
Here’s another one, change your facebook profile and pictures and your twitter picture to Lousiville and then see what happens. I did it on April Fools day, and I got like 20 responses from friends who thought that someone had hacked my account or that something was really wrong with me.
My wife just sent. I already know everything about you. I am slightly scared now.
Ryan’s been quiet…I think he’s probably putting out a fire.
again sorry about the arugement that me and my dad had
Ryan, are you crying? There’s no crying in baseball.
I work with my wife and she came over to my Cube, slapped the back of my head, got 3 inches from my face and simply said “what the hell?”
Excuse me, why are girlfriends different than wives? piece of paper? Really? Who the heck gets married to insecure women? It is a JOKE. Let it go people
Yeah,,,,right!!
My girlfriends responses so far…”Ok.” “And…” “AND???!!!” I’m not quitting until the 30 minute time limit. I want these tickets!
Had it typed up, didnt have the marbles to hit send
Tickets or Sanity…you decide
Ryan’s wife is over the top. After being married, you should trust the other person. Come on now
This was a bad, bad, BAD idea, Jones.
Tomorrow’s contest winner will be whichever listener creates a phony Coach Cal Twitter account and gets the most followers for tweeting: BBN, me and www haven’t been completely honest with you the past few years.
UK_JB, Congratulations and thank you for sharing that beautiful photo. I’m not gonna lie, I teared up. God bless.
I like it when you have Greg Doyle on the show. But I did not like him doing the show while you were gone. It’s a good thing he is a writer and should stick to it.
If you can do a friend a favor that don’t cost you anything,do it. You may need a favor yourself someday.
