You all are good at it's 32 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 3: not like quite an insult, but it's like a subtle insult, 33 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 3: but it's also a compliment a little bit. I'll tell 34 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 3: you what I mean. When I did the show live 35 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 3: last week, a woman said to me, Hey, now that 36 00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 3: I met you in person, it's clear why you were 37 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 3: never a basketball star. Was calling me short. She was 38 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 3: calling me short, I think, you know, but but cool, right, 39 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 3: she didn't say you're short, but she said, it's clear 40 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 3: you want a basketball star. Somebody else there was like, wow, Sprinter, 41 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 3: I thought you might be a discusser shot putter based 42 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 3: on what you. 43 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 5: So. 44 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 3: I think what he was saying is you're a bit 45 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 3: thicker than I realized. Maybe you were. Listen, listen KSR community. 46 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 3: I've been to like four family reunions. Okay, I'm still 47 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,519 Speaker 3: trying to work off some of that family reunion weight, 48 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 3: so you know, be patient with me.

Now, what 51 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 3: I've learned working with Matt Jones is if Matt Jones 52 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 3: says all due respect, or if he starts something by saying, 53 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 3: you know, I love you something behind that is going 54 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 3: to be like, all right, I don't know how I 55 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 3: feel about that.

I don't know, but 60 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 3: I'm learning that Kentucky insults they kind of they drop 61 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 3: you a little bit, but then they lift you up 62 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 3: at the same time they don't want you to fall 63 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 3: too far.

Kill the bill. And that 130 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 3: could have been a T shirt a theme. I mean, 131 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 3: that could have been something. Right. 132 00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a little too late. You can't kill what's 133 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 6: already dead and Louisville's been dead for about four years. 134 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 3: I am, I wasn't done that opportunity. 135 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 6: It has been nice with the TVT to bring that 136 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 6: rivalry back. We've missed that a little bit. I almost 137 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 6: if we didn't have such a busy day. I thought 138 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 6: about bringing back a Louisville hate Day to our website, 139 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,359 Speaker 6: which is an old tradition. But again, they're just so 140 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 6: far down you feel like you're picking on them a 141 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 6: little bit with these jokes. 142 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 3: I gotta remember where I'm at. I wasn't trying to 143 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,919 Speaker 3: set you up, but you know, when you're in this rivalry, 144 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 3: I guess everything can become a hit on that team. 145 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,919 Speaker 3: My first experience with the rivalry was in twenty twelve. 146 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 3: I had worked for ESPN as my first year. Didn't 147 00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 3: know anybody even at ESPN. They sent me to the 148 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 3: Final four. I mean this was back in the big 149 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 3: money days. Whereever, like one hundred people from ESPN at 150 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 3: the Final four. They basically rented out this hotel on 151 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 3: Bourbon Street. So we're everywhere at this hotel and I 152 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 3: go across the street to a little convenience store in 153 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 3: New Orleans to get, you know, I don't know, some 154 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 3: mike and ikes and some candy or whatever, and there's 155 00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 3: a crowd of people kind of gathered around the front, 156 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 3: and I'm going, what are they watching? It's like, is 157 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 3: there is someone okay, did someone get hurt? Is there 158 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 3: a fight? And there's this young Kentucky fan, probably early twenties, 159 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:41,560 Speaker 3: and this like fifty something in Louisville fan, and they 160 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 3: are screaming at each other about the game that's getting 161 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 3: ready to happen. I believe that Saturday. Now, mind you. 162 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 3: I got to New Orleans on Wednesday, so this is 163 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 3: like Wednesday night. This is four days before the actual game. 164 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 3: And my introduction to this rivalry is too fans from 165 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 3: those opposing fan bases screaming at each other in a 166 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 3: convenience store right by the register, so like you can't 167 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 3: get to the register because they're arguing with each other. 168 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 3: And they were surrounded by Kentucky and Louisville fans who 169 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 3: were just nodding their heads like yeah, this is normal. 170 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 3: And I was the only outsider who was like, well, 171 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 3: wait a minute, this is okay, Like you all are 172 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 3: good with this. And I almost felt like they were like, listen, 173 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 3: this is just what we do. Stay out of it. 174 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 3: Just observe. We don't need your two cents. And that 175 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 3: was my introduction to that rivalry. Four days before that game, 176 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 3: two guys in a screen match at a convenience store, 177 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 3: and I thought to myself, I've never seen anything. 178 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 6: Like this, if I'm not mistaken. Around that same time 179 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 6: here in Lexia, maybe Georgetown, two elderly men gotten to 180 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 6: fight at like a dialysis cinema one off, that's right. 181 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:55,839 Speaker 6: I think there was even a punch thrown. I mean 182 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 6: this was like seven year old men where in UK 183 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 6: and louisvigear and the lobby just getting their check up 184 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 6: in there and they came to blows. That's it was 185 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 6: intense there for a while before Louisville quit participating in 186 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:06,880 Speaker 6: the sport of college basketball and left us with nothing 187 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:07,120 Speaker 6: to do. 188 00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:11,719 Speaker 3: Oh woa see, I knew something else was coming. I knew. 189 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,199 Speaker 3: I gotta remember that. I gotta remember that. Yeah, I 190 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 3: heard about the thing that at the dialysis center. My 191 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 3: most imposing or maybe intimidating Louisville Kentucky moment twenty fifteen. 192 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 3: I want to say the twenty fourteen to fifteen game. 193 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 3: I believe that was the Karl Anthony Towns team they 194 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,720 Speaker 3: played on the road. I just randomly stayed at the 195 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 3: same hotel as the team, not like on purpose. It 196 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 3: just booked a hotel and they happen to be at 197 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 3: that hotel. So I go downstairs for like breakfast right 198 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 3: to just go like the little lobby breakfast place, it 199 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,640 Speaker 3: was a restaurant or whatever it is. On every single 200 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 3: floor there are two State troopers. And then when you 201 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 3: go down to the lobby no joke, I'm not making 202 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 3: this up. When you go down to the lobby right 203 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 3: of the hotel in Louisville, there is a line of 204 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 3: State troopers and Willie Cauley Stein and Carl Town's and 205 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:14,079 Speaker 3: these guys are all being escorted to the team bus 206 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 3: through this line of State troopers. I've never seen, to 207 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 3: this day anything like it. I've been everywhere, I've been 208 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 3: all over this country for some of the biggest games 209 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 3: that you can go to. I have never seen a 210 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 3: security presence like that at a team hotel the way 211 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 3: you had one for that Kentucky team. I mean it 212 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 3: was we were two blocks away from the arena, I think, 213 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 3: but State troopers on every floor lining the lobby of 214 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 3: the hotel, and I'm going, what on earth is this? 215 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 3: You know what I mean? It was. It was wild 216 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 3: to see that kind of a security detail. 217 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: And to be honest, there have been times that Drew 218 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: and Drew and Jeff Shannon and I have been scared 219 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: for Matt's safety walking into a you know, in Louisville, 220 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 1: or when they meet in the NCAA tournament up in Indianapolis, 221 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 1: and there was an incident where they did a Louisville 222 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: pregame show, turned the mics off. We stepped in, turned 223 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,319 Speaker 1: the mics on while the place was still full of 224 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,480 Speaker 1: Louisville fans, and I thought they were gonna come over 225 00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 1: the table at him because he was like just pointing 226 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 1: them out. And then he had to walk to the 227 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 1: arena with these I mean, there have been times I've 228 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:23,959 Speaker 1: been a little scared for his safety. 229 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 6: The best ever was to walk in Indianapolis from after 230 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,559 Speaker 6: the game where lois or Louisville lost in the sweet sixteen, 231 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:32,719 Speaker 6: and we just had to walk through all of them 232 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 6: and they were yelling everything, and it just felt so 233 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 6: good because you didn't have to saynything back. They were 234 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 6: going home and Kentucky was moving on to the lead eight. 235 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 6: But they were so mad because they thought that was 236 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,680 Speaker 6: their one time, that was their game yep. And I 237 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 6: was Kentucky fans celebrating and moving on that night in Indianapolis. 238 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 3: I mean, that's the other thing about your rivalry games 239 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 3: is like that's the only time I've been to the 240 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 3: NCAA tournament, and people without tickets will flood the city 241 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 3: by the thousands. I mean, that's a unique thing. Just 242 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 3: to be in the city, just to be at like 243 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:07,199 Speaker 3: a local sports bar, people will go and flood the city. 244 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 3: Back to twenty twelve, I'm in New Orleans again for 245 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 3: that Final four. I'm sitting front row. Man, what a scene. 246 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 3: I'm sitting in front row and Anthony Davis does that 247 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 3: this is my you can't say on the radio, like 248 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:23,679 Speaker 3: I'm right there at really incredible moment. But like before 249 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 3: the game, I'm walking Bourbon Street again. Nobody knows who 250 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 3: I am. I was a newspaper reporter who gets a 251 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 3: job at ESPN and it's my first year and I'm 252 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 3: walking down the street on Bourbon Street, just taking it 253 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 3: all in and from across the street, some Kentucky fans 254 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 3: yell Mad Calf, and I'm like, what, it can't be me. 255 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 3: There's gotta be somebody else named Metcalf here or something. 256 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 3: So i just keep walking and then I hear it again, 257 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 3: Mad Calf, and I turn and look and they were 258 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,719 Speaker 3: like pointing at me, and I'm like, how do these 259 00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 3: people know who I am. I'm not on TV, I 260 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 3: wasn't on the radio at the time. I didn't have 261 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 3: some big social media presence. Nobody knew who I was. 262 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,680 Speaker 3: But some of these Kentucky fans who I saw obsessed 263 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 3: with the sport, they knew who I was. And that's 264 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 3: when I was like, Oh, these Kentucky fans are different, right, 265 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 3: because I experienced it way back in twenty twelve, between 266 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 3: the Convenience Stars screaming match them calling out my name, 267 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 3: the State Troopers at twenty fifteen. Man, I've seen some 268 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 3: moments where I'm like, yeah, there's not There aren't many 269 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:33,079 Speaker 3: rivalries like this in sports period, I would. 270 00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: Say, and you know there's Green Bay, maybe Alabama football. 271 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 2: There's not. I mean, it's a very special place for 272 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 2: the fan base. 273 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,200 Speaker 1: Louisville fans are as passions Kentucky fans, and when they're good, 274 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: this rivalry is the best it can be. But like 275 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: Drew said, I think at the last sixteen games in basketball, 276 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: Kentucky's beat them thirteen out of the last sixteen or 277 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 1: something like that. 278 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 3: One of those didn't even count. 279 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, one of them didn't even count. 280 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:57,960 Speaker 6: We have lost a lot of that fire lately due 281 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 6: to their extreme levels of suck. I mean last year 282 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 6: we went to downtown Louisville and was just Kentucky fans 283 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 6: everywhere in their own arena to win by nineteen. The 284 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 6: year before that, you win by twenty three in rop arena. 285 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 6: In football, there are six year olds walking the earth 286 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 6: who have never seen Louisville win a game about to 287 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 6: be seven years coming up. It's what used to be 288 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 6: a competitive rivalry has really lost a lot of it shines. 289 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 6: So that's why I think tonight, whether it's close, probably 290 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 6: won't be, but it' at least brought a little bit 291 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 6: of that back. 292 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, and let's be a clear for me. I want 293 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:30,080 Speaker 3: to see, you know, the rivalry's best when Louisville is competitive. 294 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 3: I mean when they're at that level like it was 295 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:34,640 Speaker 3: at its best. We hit two national championship contenders, yes 296 00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 3: you know what I mean, who were literally battling at 297 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 3: the highest stage. I mean that that twenty twelve stretch 298 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 3: was incredible because you had these two elite teams. Twenty 299 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 3: fifteen was incredible because you had two nashly ranked teams. 300 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 3: So I think the sport like from a selfish perspective, 301 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 3: College basketball is healthier. I think when both of those 302 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 3: teams are really good and both of those teams are 303 00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 3: national championship contenders, right, I think that's where and the 304 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 3: sport is really really shines on a national stage because 305 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 3: that's the that's one of the two games everybody watches. 306 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 3: They watch that they watched North Carolina. Do Like, if 307 00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 3: you're a fan of sports, whether you're a college basketball 308 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 3: fan or not, you know what happens in those two 309 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 3: rivalries and they're at their best when both of those 310 00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 3: teams on the teams on both sides are national championship caliber. 311 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 3: We got time for one more call. 312 00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 4: Let's do one more Let's go to Mark, Mark. 313 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 3: What say you on this Mary Monday? 314 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 5: Marin, I'm so happy to actually get through and be 315 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 5: able to talk to you. 316 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 8: Man. 317 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 5: It's it's nice that you have all summer stepped in 318 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 5: and reminded us to take take note of the good things. 319 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 5: And let's just throw all the way back to the 320 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 5: very first Mary Monday.

It's 378 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 3: like one second it's ping pong and it's volleyball and 379 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 3: it's rugby.

Absolutely? 382 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:50,840 Speaker 1: I would sleep in it, I'd take a shower in it. 383 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 1: Yeah absolutely, I'm not. 384 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:53,399 Speaker 2: Taking that thing off. 385 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 1: You work all those years, your whole life. I'm keeping 386 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 1: it on the whole time. 387 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Drew, would you wear yours forever? Where would 388 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 3: you where would you take it off? Like where would 389 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,120 Speaker 3: you feel like, okay, it's not appropriate maybe to wear 390 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 3: it there. 391 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:06,440 Speaker 6: I can't think of a scenario where I wouldn't have 392 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 6: it on. I mean, I'm wearing that everything. 393 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:09,480 Speaker 3: You know what. 394 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 6: We have a gold coming to Lexington. Yes, we had 395 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 6: a Lexington, Kentucky native win gold and women's foil fencing yesterday. 396 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 2: League Keifer's Lee Keifer. 397 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, she went back to back. She won last year 398 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,439 Speaker 6: and then she's bringing it home to Lexington again. So 399 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 6: maybe we'll just see her around town wearing both of 400 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:26,120 Speaker 6: them for the next several years. 401 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 3: I watched fencing. Kudos to her. That's incredible, man. Yeah 402 00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 3: to me, Once you win a gold medal, like I 403 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 3: was trying to rank it in terms of like what 404 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 3: you would want to win if your goal was to 405 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 3: never pay for something again another day in your life. Right, 406 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 3: I think there are a couple of things you win 407 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 3: where it's like, Okay, you're you're a hero. Like my 408 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 3: list is super Bowl ring and you're back in your hometown, 409 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,440 Speaker 3: living in your hometown. Right, that's big. Right, If you 410 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 3: want a Super Bowl ring and then you go back 411 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 3: and settle in your hometown, you're probably gonna be set 412 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:01,639 Speaker 3: for life, no matter what happens. I think Heisman Trophy, 413 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 3: no matter where you live if you went a Heisman. 414 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 3: Like literally all the dudes who've won Heisman's their job 415 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 3: is that they want a Heisman. I went to a 416 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 3: Wisconsin football game. I'm from Wisconsin, my parents went to Wisconsin. 417 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:18,639 Speaker 3: Ron Daine was my favorite player growing up. Ron Dayne 418 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 3: works for the University of Wisconsin. You know what his 419 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:25,919 Speaker 3: job is. His job is to be Ron Dayne. Like legitimately, 420 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 3: they just bring him out like before games. He shakes hands, 421 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 3: holds babies, he high fives people, and that is his 422 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 3: entire job. His job is to be Ron Dayne Like 423 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 3: that is the power of a Heisman trophy. So there 424 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 3: aren't many things like that. Also on that list, to 425 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 3: be I think the star the star quarterback of a 426 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:54,879 Speaker 3: state championship football team in high school. Big like that dude, 427 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,960 Speaker 3: no matter what he does, that's gonna be maybe his 428 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:02,399 Speaker 3: biggest achievement. Like to be like the dude who beat 429 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:07,199 Speaker 3: Johnson High School in the state championship game, Like that 430 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 3: dude's gonna be cool forever like that, that's still you know, 431 00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 3: that's still don that's still magic, don you know what 432 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:17,359 Speaker 3: I mean? Fifty two years old, he's still that guy, right. 433 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 3: And then also on that list, to me clearly is 434 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 3: a gold medal, and I think all four of those. 435 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 3: If you win one of those fellas, I don't think 436 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 3: you're paying for a meal, probably for the rest of 437 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,080 Speaker 3: your life, especially if you're back in your hometown. 438 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:34,439 Speaker 1: You know the thirty for thirty on Steve Spurri or 439 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 1: they did on the SEC network. You know, he's won 440 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,160 Speaker 1: national championships, he's had all these great accolades. He won 441 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: the Heisman and they asked him what his greatest achievement 442 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 1: in sports was, and he said, we won like the 443 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 1: state championship my high school baseball team, and that was 444 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 1: he had the game ball. That was his most prized possession, 445 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,200 Speaker 1: was that game ball from that game in high school. 446 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 1: There's something about if you win something in high school, 447 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:56,359 Speaker 1: it just means more to you. 448 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 3: I think you could poll every professional athlete across sports. 449 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 3: You could say, okay, give me your number one achievement. Now, 450 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 3: if they wont a Super Bowl or a Stanley Cup 451 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 3: or a World Series or something like that, that's probably 452 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 3: number one. I'd be willing to bet the vast majority 453 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 3: of those athletes number one or two on that list 454 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:19,640 Speaker 3: is gonna be something to happen in high school. 455 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, like, yep, I. 456 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 3: Mean there's no because that to me, high school is 457 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:27,480 Speaker 3: where you know, it's just pure. You know, not as 458 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:29,679 Speaker 3: much anymore because guys are kind of going to these loaded 459 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:32,479 Speaker 3: high schools and you know, there's stacking teams. But I mean, 460 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:35,120 Speaker 3: if you played it like the high school in your 461 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 3: neighborhood or your city and you wouldn't beat another city 462 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 3: or town in. 463 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 2: A big moment, yeah, you're you're. 464 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 3: I mean that lasts forever, no matter what happens the 465 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,159 Speaker 3: rest of your life. So I think for a lot 466 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 3: of us, high school, no matter what you've achieved in life, 467 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:53,640 Speaker 3: still the biggest sports achievement that I think most people 468 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 3: have had, you know what I mean. 469 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's you know, in most cases, it's a hometown 470 00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 6: you grew up with, the it grew up in your 471 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 6: teammates or people you've known since you were little, So 472 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:03,920 Speaker 6: it just means so much more. It's one thing to 473 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,159 Speaker 6: get drafted by big city helped them out. It's the 474 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 6: other thing to bring a little trophy home to where 475 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 6: you grew up.

In twenty nineteen, my friend Ed Ashoff 820 00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:13,960 Speaker 3: worked at ESPN incredible human being passed away due to cancer, right, 821 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 3: and it was a sudden thing, and you know, he 822 00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:19,360 Speaker 3: thought it maybe it was like a flu bug or something, 823 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,560 Speaker 3: and then all of a sudden things just turn and 824 00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:23,880 Speaker 3: then it was over right, one of the most devastating 825 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:26,840 Speaker 3: things that have ever happened to me. And the months 826 00:40:26,880 --> 00:40:29,839 Speaker 3: that followed were really really challenging because it went from 827 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 3: that to the pandemic and it's all the chaos that 828 00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 3: was happening everywhere, and it was just really hard for 829 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 3: all of us, right, not just me. I'm not unique, 830 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 3: but I think there were certainly moments where I realized 831 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:45,960 Speaker 3: sometimes you gotta fight to find that joy, right, Like, 832 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,279 Speaker 3: sometimes you got to really fight to acknowledge the things 833 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 3: that are good and that are worth acknowledging, and that 834 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,960 Speaker 3: our bright moments even on the dark days. And I 835 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 3: had to do that. And after a while, after losing 836 00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:00,760 Speaker 3: one of my best friends in a sudden way, I decided, 837 00:41:01,160 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 3: you know what, maybe I can be that for somebody else, 838 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,400 Speaker 3: Like maybe I can be just a teaspoon of joy 839 00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:09,880 Speaker 3: and energy and spice, even if it's for a moment. 840 00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:12,839 Speaker 3: And that's been the cool thing about radio and working 841 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:16,040 Speaker 3: with Matt Is. We're not sports guys. We're just too 842 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 3: dude to do a show, and our goal is maybe 843 00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:22,759 Speaker 3: somebody will laugh or smile and just have a better 844 00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:25,799 Speaker 3: day after listening to us for a moment. And I've 845 00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 3: had the same experience here on these Merry Mondays, So 846 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 3: I really appreciate it because I've just committed myself to 847 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:34,920 Speaker 3: the idea of, you know what, life's bigger than you. 848 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 3: Everybody's going through something. A lot of people have different challenges, 849 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:41,880 Speaker 3: and I think everybody just kind of hopes that maybe 850 00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:44,759 Speaker 3: today and if not today, maybe this week, and not 851 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 3: this week, maybe this month. And some people are having 852 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:50,200 Speaker 3: a really hard time. Maybe they're saying, hopefully this year 853 00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:53,360 Speaker 3: I can find something to smile about, to laugh about. 854 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,399 Speaker 3: And if you can be that for somebody else, it's 855 00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:58,960 Speaker 3: a really great thing because we all need it. And 856 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:01,239 Speaker 3: since we all need it, make sure you try to 857 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:04,240 Speaker 3: be that for other people in your lives as well, 858 00:42:04,360 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 3: because that goes further than you might realize. So Mary 859 00:42:08,160 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 3: Mondays for me is a real thing. It's something that 860 00:42:11,640 --> 00:42:14,280 Speaker 3: I had to create in my own life after losing 861 00:42:14,680 --> 00:42:17,239 Speaker 3: a really important person to me. And I said, you 862 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,160 Speaker 3: know what, I'm going to fight to find a reason 863 00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:23,080 Speaker 3: to smile and to laugh, and I'm also going to 864 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:25,960 Speaker 3: try to do that for somebody else. And I hope 865 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 3: that everybody can take Marry Monday's to heart and you 866 00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:30,440 Speaker 3: do it every Monday, and you get up with the 867 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 3: right attitude, the right spirit, the right energy, and you 868 00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:35,680 Speaker 3: realize that I have a right to be happy and 869 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 3: I got a right to smile even on the cloudiest 870 00:42:39,160 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 3: of days.
