Oh it is.

Oh it is.

It is like the Willy Wonka chocolate factory. I went over there a couple of weeks ago and they've got like one section over here where people are, you knowing it up, and then over here they're putting the sugar on it, and over here they're doing it's a whole thing.

Yeah, all the moving and shaking that Cornbread Hemp has done. I mean, they were a small company that took a shot on KSR and now look at all the big things that they're doing. So cannot wait to see them tomorrow. It was an odd night in the SEC last night, Shandon. I'm sure we'll talk about all that. But I was enjoying your video of Ryan Lemon that you posted this morning.

Oh yeah, well, young Ryan Mario actually posted that. I just shared that. I don't know where they got that, I guess off of a VHS tape somewhere of a young Ryan Lemon doing an interview with a young Mark Pope. And Mark Pope was begging people to send socks, begging. I think that Mark Pope, with his salary these days, can afford all the socks that he needs. But that was quite a video. I always love the old Ryan Lemon on the news videos that surface.

There's quite a few of them. There's some bloopers.

There's one video in which his co host is co anchor, pushes him out of his seat and knocks them backwards at the end of the broadcast. There's another of film singing the lyrics to Baby Got Back.

Have you seen that one?

Have you seen that one?

No?

No?

I haven't seen that.

I haven't seen that.

No.

No.

Oh God, I got to share that with you in the break. But Ryan Lemon, you know he's a National Treasurer, But apparently he was a National Treasurer along before KSR because some of those broadcasts, I don't even know what the point of the broadcast was, like, what was the point of the interview with Mark Pope?

Obviously it was sarcasm.

Obviously it was sarcasm.

I guess it was a slow news day, so they just wanted to fill some time with Mark Pope begging for socks.

Well one, you know, around Derby time every year we share the video of Ryan getting slammed in the infield at the Kentucky Derby and ruining his clothes. I think that's my all time favorite video and also that video of Ryan and Mark Pope really shows you how far we've come when it comes to college athletes. Right, Mark Pope is begging for socks. He's begging for that cheese on his hamburger, shanding we can't even have cheese on our hamburgers anymore, so please send single slices of cheese. And now, I mean, how many guys are going to college now with million dollar nil deals or if not millions, hundreds of thousands of dollars to play the sports that you know goosegivings and Mark Pope would have to go around looking for free buffets just to continue playing, right, I mean, it's unbelievable how much has changed. But I had heard that story before from Pope. I think he shared it that, you know, they just didn't issue any more socks, and so after a while, shit, and you you know, you start to grind down the ones you have, and I'm sure that gets pretty uncomfortable.

You think maybe after that video kind of gone, you know, goes out there and goes viral, that maybe next game people will bring socks to hand to Mark Pope in exchange for an autograph, because we know Pope likes to hang around and sign everybody's autograph.

Maybe you could.

Maybe you could.

Yeah, I feel like that's a fair exchange. I'll sign your basketball if you give me a pair of socks.

Yeah, I feel like that's a fair exchange. I'll sign your basketball if you give me a pair of socks.

If we had any more games left a rupt this year, I am certain that somebody would have brought some socks for Mark Pope to sign.

If we had any more games left a rupt this year, I am certain that somebody would have brought some socks for Mark Pope to sign.

And believe me, he would have sign right.

And believe me, he would have sign right.

I mean, he would have stayed at Rup until the very last person was there. And I think that's an endearing quality about him, him going up to, you know, people in wheelchairs and giving them the time of day. I mean, no matter who it is or what affliction they have, he is he does have that kind of synem.

But anyway, that was a great video of a young Ryan Lemon and a young Mark Pope. I definitely go check that out on social media if you haven't already done so. You know, the good thing about radio though, that I love, Billy, is that it kind of keeps all of us young, young at heart, young in my young in your mind. Doing this job, you know, it's almost like it's not even a real job. But I gotta tell you, as I'm getting older, I had a moment last night at the gym. You know, I'm on this health kick where I'm going to the gym as many days as i can throughout the week, and at some point I strike up a conversation with this kid next to me, and he's talking about how he is a bullet Eese baseball player, and I go, you know, I was a Boldies baseball player. Yeah, And I started talking to I go, what year are you? He's like, I'm a sophomore. I go, well, how old are you?

Then?

Then?

What?

What?

Sixteen? Yeah? Sixteen?

Sixteen? Yeah? Sixteen?

And then it dawned on me, as I'm having this conversation about to tell him my days of being a Bulletese baseball player, it dawned on me, Billy that when I was playing baseball for Bulleties, this kid wasn't even alive. And I go, oh my god, I feel so old right now. Like I felt embarrassed, and I quickly shut down the conversation and moved on to my next set, because I go, I can't believe, like I know, Like you know, you have these moments when you get older, you start talking to the people and you realize, man, like I know I'm older, but I don't I don't feel like it until I start having conversations with somebody who wasn't even alive when I was in high school. And it just it just it hit me hard man, and I kind of felt bad about it. I go, my god, all right, let me just uh, let me move away from this as quickly as possible.

You felt like the old timer at the gym.

You felt like the old timer at the gym.

Oh, I mean, I don't, I gotta.

Oh, I mean, I don't, I gotta.

I feel like I don't look like I'm an old person. I don't feel old, but I did in that moment. So what I want to know from our listeners today, call in, give me the moment that you realized you were old. Give me the moment that you realize you were the old guy in the room. Because I had that experience last night and I didn't like it. And he kept calling me sir, and I'm like, will you stop? Don't call me sir.

It makes me feel even older. I don't like that. It was just a really uncomfortable situation, and I don't like it.

It makes me feel even older. I don't like that. It was just a really uncomfortable situation, and I don't like it.

I mean, I guess getting old is better than the alternative, which would be dying. You got either one, you got two choices in this world. You either get old or you die. But it's not good when you realize that you're climbing that hill, well hill.

The only person that's undefeated is father time. That's right, right, Chan, We've talked about that, and you know, I think you've slowly merged into an old man getting up to watch the Today Show every morning and and swapping stories with kids that are sixteen year old.

Sixteen years old and still in high school. I'm sure that that hits you hard.

Sixteen years old and still in high school. I'm sure that that hits you hard.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I you know, when did I feel old? Well when the lingo goes right, because I feel like I was up on the lingo for a while, and then you go on TikTok, and then you know, they're just saying these words that you've never heard before and you've got no idea what they mean. And then also, I think waking up early and going to bed early is a big part of me feeling old. I thought I'd stay up till two am every night for the rest of my life. Shannon, I was like, I mean, what's the big deal. I mean, who I can get, you know, five four hours of sleep and be fine. But now if I don't Shannon, and I don't have my coffee in the morning, I just feel like a completely different person. And my back starts to ache and I'm like Andrew Carr on The Bitch.

I'm still young though you're still in your twenties, I don't know that you even have, you know, a moment to share when you realize.

I'm still young though you're still in your twenties, I don't know that you even have, you know, a moment to share when you realize.

You were Do I not qualify I turned thirty.

You were Do I not qualify I turned thirty.

I feel like you've got to be like at least mid thirties before you get to that point, Like, you know, the first the very first one that I had was I've told the story before, you know.

I was a part of like active modern rock radio.

I was a part of like active modern rock radio.

And then they flip me over to QMF, which is the classic rock station, and they started playing like all the bands that I grew up listening to. I'm going, wait a minute, Pearl Jam's not classic rock. What are we doing playing that over here? Then I go, oh, yeah, that's been out for like twenty years. I guess it is classic rock. So that was like the very first moment that at that was a long time ago. But now I feel like more and more, I'm just getting subtle reminders of being the old guy in the room. And I don't like it, Billy, I just don't like it. So I'd love to hear from some of you out there at Billy our Sports, at Shannon the Dude. You can also let us know on Twitter if you can't call in eighty five nine two eight oho twenty two eighty seven. Last night Billy Kentucky got a little help and Ole Miss beat Tennessee. So I believe that now takes Kentucky out of the scenario of playing on Wednesday. Is I understand it is that correct? Is there any other scenario now that can happen that would still place Kentucky on a Wednesday, Because I think last night, with Ole Miss beating Tennessee, that now at least gives Kentucky the eight seed, which means they'd be playing on Thursday, at least at worst case scenario.

That's correct, Okay, at least in my understanding, that Kentucky has successfully avoided Wednesday. And I think we can all just pause and clap slightly for chich Turnkey, because that was going to be a disaster, right with the general admission seating and maybe not even most of Big Blue Nation being down there for Wednesday. So glad that they were able to get by that, and always happy to see Tennessee lose at the Buzzer like that on a missed layup. But now we turn towards Saturday, and if Kentucky's able to beat Missouri, Shannon an Ole, miss loses to Florida, which is very possible, right, and I'm number five team in the country Florida who just beat Alabama last night. I believe you will hold the tie breaker and go all the way up to a sixth seed. But if you were to lose to Missouri, I think you are settled in as the eight seed.

So a possibility of.

So a possibility of.

Playing the first game on Thursday or the last game on Thursday, but I believe those are the two possible scenarios for Kentucky.

Playing the first game on Thursday or the last game on Thursday, but I believe those are the two possible scenarios for Kentucky.

Right, So as somebody who has to produce that, I would say you probably, Billy, are you pulling for Missouri now so you don't have to be in the studio late at night?

Right, So as somebody who has to produce that, I would say you probably, Billy, are you pulling for Missouri now so you don't have to be in the studio late at night?

Well Thursday, that is a great question, because if they were to win Thursday, you got to get back up and do it all over again Friday.

Well Thursday, that is a great question, because if they were to win Thursday, you got to get back up and do it all over again Friday.

Right.

Right.

Yeah, of course we're doing our ten roof show on Thursday, by the way, That is right Thursday morning. But we just we're still gonna be back on the air for KOSR the next day. We just won't be at ten roof on Friday. It's Thursday this year.

Yeah, of course we're doing our ten roof show on Thursday, by the way, That is right Thursday morning. But we just we're still gonna be back on the air for KOSR the next day. We just won't be at ten roof on Friday. It's Thursday this year.

Instead, I think I would rather have Kentucky play at the night session. And that may not be what you think I would like, and that's but that's because it would be a disaster trying to get our affiliates all in line for KSR pregame show starting in the middle of KASR. Yeah, so I mean that there is like a lot of things that have to go into that. So just to give me at least work amount possible.

See, you're not the night You're now choosing whether or not you pull for Kentucky based on the scenario and how much work you have to do.

See, you're not the night You're now choosing whether or not you pull for Kentucky based on the scenario and how much work you have to do.

But hey, I mean that means I'm pulling for Kentucky to win, right. I don't think you can poo poo me in this situab.

But hey, I mean that means I'm pulling for Kentucky to win, right. I don't think you can poo poo me in this situab.

Not, I'm not. You know, Missouri is a tough team to figure out.

Not, I'm not. You know, Missouri is a tough team to figure out.

I mean when they played Alabama, they them of course at home, they came out and looked like one of the best teams in college basketball. Then they turn around they lose to Arkansas Vandy, and then last night was Oklahoma. All those games were on the road. Missouri is just a completely different team when they're on the road. They're eighteen and one this year at home. Unfortunately, the game on Saturday is at Missouri. So I really don't know what to expect from this Missouri team. I mean, obviously, if you look at the trends, they're gonna be playing better on Saturday than they have in the games they've been on the road. I just don't know how how close of a game it's going to be. You know, do you think Kentucky Jerry sneak? Yeah, somebody just hit me in the back Jerry's shoulder.

Yeah, just walking in here.

Yeah, just walking in here.

Whisper in your ear a little bit, Jerry. I know he's your favorite Louisville cardinal, isn't.

Whisper in your ear a little bit, Jerry. I know he's your favorite Louisville cardinal, isn't.

He He is? Yeah, he is just walking in here interrupting the show. Anyway.

He He is? Yeah, he is just walking in here interrupting the show. Anyway.

I don't know what point I was trying to make other than it's gonna be gonna be tough on the ro Yeah.

I don't know what point I was trying to make other than it's gonna be gonna be tough on the ro Yeah.

So what do you think is going to happen on Saturday?

So what do you think is going to happen on Saturday?

Man?

Man?

I mean, can anybody tell me what's going to happen in the sec from night to I'd like to know. I'd like to ask you a couple of questions about my future. But man, I mean I got I gotta commend Missouri a little bit. You know, they Dennis Gates and that team is it's really had quite the turnaround, and this is a team that is it can make some noise. But you're right, I mean, seems a little odd that they can't win on the road, but at the same time, who can at this point. So this is gonna be a tough environment. But if anything encourages me, it's that I think this Kentucky team is starting to define their roles. They know what's expected out of each player now, and with Jackson Robinson and Kirk Cries out for the year, these guys know what they need to do to step up. And it seems like Andrew carrs getting healthier man and Lamont Butler too. So those are all optimistic things. But this is gonna be a tough one, Shannon, I no doubt. I think Kentucky will be underdog in this game.

Maybe you get a little extra from Colin Chandler, who's you know, is coming off his his best game.

Maybe you get a little extra from Colin Chandler, who's you know, is coming off his his best game.

Maybe you get him rolling.

Maybe you get him rolling.

If you can do that, I feel good about this team going into the SEC Tournament. In the NC DOUAA tournament. Yeah, you know, you got to get some people that will step up. I didn't really expect much at all from Colin Chandler, but then after seeing the last game him getting into double digits, it shows me that that potential is there. I didn't really know what we had in Colin Chandler, and then you see the game just a few days ago, he gets into double digits. Looks good out there. All of a sudden, I'm thinking, all right, maybe we got a little something here. Maybe we can get him rolling and he could be a big part of this team coming up for the tournament.

Yeah, no doubt.

I mean, when you take two years off of basketball, maybe it just takes a little time to ramp up getting back into game action. But he played with a confidence on the offensive end that really served this team well. So if he can continue to do that, that'd be great. You know, you guys were talking about teams you would want to avoid in the NCAA Tournament. I one hundred percent agree. Florida is on that list for me. And Alabama, I mean two teams that played each other last night. I mean they I think are a tier above I would rather play Auburn instead of those two teams, Shannon, is that crazy?

You know, you guys were talking about teams you would want to avoid in the NCAA Tournament. I one hundred percent agree. Florida is on that list for me. And Alabama, I mean two teams that played each other last night. I mean they I think are a tier above I would rather play Auburn instead of those two teams, Shannon, is that crazy?

No?

No?

No, But I mean, like, I don't really want to see any of the teams in the in the NCAA tournament if I can avoid it, because I think that's tougher than just about any other team that's left.

No, But I mean, like, I don't really want to see any of the teams in the in the NCAA tournament if I can avoid it, because I think that's tougher than just about any other team that's left.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, So I mean you're going to be battle tested. You'll be ready to go by the time the NCAA Tournament starts, right.

Yeah, So I mean you're going to be battle tested. You'll be ready to go by the time the NCAA Tournament starts, right.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And you know, if you can avoid a weird NCAA committee selection, you know, first two round games like a Louisville or a Saint John's or something like that, then you know what. Then I do think Kentucky has the firepower to win a couple games in the tournament, but you know, with the injuries, I think their ceiling has gone down a little bit.

Then I do think Kentucky has the firepower to win a couple games in the tournament, but you know, with the injuries, I think their ceiling has gone down a little bit.

Yeah, And that was my answer yet yesterday on ksaw the team. I don't want to see a Saint John's. I just don't want to see that team because they are rolling right now. I know they don't shoot the ball, defense that they are very good defensively, and you know, if they can shut down like let's say they played and they were able to limit Kentucky's three point attempts. That's that's kind of the recipe for Kentucky to lose games. You know, when you have a game, you're only taking seventeen eighteen three point shots. So that's one of those teams I don't want to run into in the tournament if we can avoid them. But you got to play somebody.

Yeah, And that was my answer yet yesterday on ksaw the team. I don't want to see a Saint John's. I just don't want to see that team because they are rolling right now.

So that's one of those teams I don't want to run into in the tournament if we can avoid them. But you got to play somebody.

Yeah, and then they shot, you know, over thirty three pointers in their last game, and everybody was thrilled with that, and so Saint John's would be the exact opposite of what you want for that reason. But you know what I mean, you look back up the season so far, and you got these marquee wins against the teams that you want to beat every year. And now, if you can make a little noise here in March, I think most people would be satisfied with this season. It's just been weird, though, because you've seen this Kentucky team lose to some pretty mediocre teams this year.

Billy, I want your take on that. Got some football.

Billy, I want your take on that. Got some football.

News to talk about, and if you got a moment that you want to share with us when you realize you were the old person in the room eight five, nine and two eight oh twenty two eighty seven, will be right back on the ksrpre Show. It is the KSR Pre showp. Nine two eightho twenty two eighty seven. Billy are sports and old man dude here with you? Give us a call. Let me let me ask you about this, Billy. Mark Pope said he was talking to the media yesterday. He said he would be in favor of going to forty games, a forty game regular season, and what like, what do you think about that?

Like, or would you be in favor of.

Like, or would you be in favor of.

Going to forty games or do you want to keep it at what is it thirty one?

Going to forty games or do you want to keep it at what is it thirty one?

Now?

Now?

Thirty one?

Thirty one?

Yeah?

Yeah?

Yeah, I mean I don't have a yearning to get more games in. I think that it would be fun to have more non conference games, right. You know, there's the possibility of more exhibition games now that D one teams can play each other, so maybe they explore that a little bit. But look, I mean this is probably a money move, right like this.

Yeah, I mean I don't have a yearning to get more games in. I think that it would be fun to have more non conference games, right. You know, there's the possibility of more exhibition games now that D one teams can play each other, so maybe they explore that a little bit. But look, I mean this is probably a money move, right like this.

Of course it is.

Of course it is.

It's always about money, more opportunity to make money, to pay to more nil to players. So I get that, and that's a smart, savvy move by a coach that's looking ahead, right, But I think there's a there's an obvious drawback of it, and that's more opportunities for players to get injured. Now, you can't play the sports scared, right, You can't go into games thinking that maybe somebody might get injured, so maybe we shouldn't do something.

Now, you can't play the sports scared, right, You can't go into games thinking that maybe somebody might get injured, so maybe we shouldn't do something.

I could use that argument against you, just though, and say, Okay, if anybody is injured, it extends the season. Maybe a gal at kerk criesa could still get some playing time if he had, say ten more games left.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Sure.

Sure.

So I don't know. I don't know that it ever will go to that.

So I don't know. I don't know that it ever will go to that.

But you know, if there's a way for the NC DOUBLEA to make more money, you know that's probably.

But you know, if there's a way for the NC DOUBLEA to make more money, you know that's probably.

Going to happen, right what they're doing.

Going to happen, right what they're doing.

We've talked about expanding the NC DOUBLEA tournament. Now we're talking about, you know, having conversations expanding the regular season. Do you get paid by the game, by the way, when you produce those I know Tom Leech does too, So there you go, more money for you.

Why wouldn't you want to do that.

Why wouldn't you want to do that.

Yeah, I.

Yeah, I.

Personally am not opposed. Now I do not want to move March Madness more out of March either.

Personally am not opposed. Now I do not want to move March Madness more out of March either.

That's another thing. I've heard people saying, like, oh, we could play it in May or eighty.

That's another thing. I've heard people saying, like, oh, we could play it in May or eighty.

We're going to expand the tournament.

We're going to expand the tournament.

I don't want. I don't want May. I don't want May Madness.

I don't want. I don't want May. I don't want May Madness.

Like what you got going on right now is the best thing in sports.

Like what you got going on right now is the best thing in sports.

I don't even think it's close. You can have the.

I don't even think it's close. You can have the.

Super Bowl, the World Series, the NBA Finals, all of it. There's nothing that compares to March Madness. Now, you start messing with it too much, all of a sudden, you're going to dilute it. You're going to change you know what it is, and you start adding teams, and all of a sudden, then it doesn't mean as much when you make the NCAA tournament. I mean, I know that they keep adding teams to Division one.

I mean, I know that they keep adding teams to Division one.

I get that.

I get that.

I get that, But if you, you know, add more teams, you're slotting the skill to being the same percentage of teams getting into the tournament. I understand that argument, but Billy, I don't know, like if we're going to expand it, I mean, maybe a couple of more teams, but at the end of the day, there's always going to be the one team that doesn't get in. It doesn't matter if you go to sixty eight or ninety six teams. There's always going to be a sixty ninth or on ninety seventh team. It doesn't matter. So some at some point, somebody's not going to get in.

So some at some point, somebody's not going to get in.

Yeah, yeah, and you're right, but it also devalues the regular season, right, I mean, if if it's going to lower, I mean, the worse teams are going to be getting in than when a you have a big matchup late in the year between two good teams, it probably just means a little less, right, So you know, and then if you were to move back the calendar, then you're getting into like baseball really getting into a full swing and be a playoffs. I mean, you just don't want to screw up the sports calendar that much. So I guess they would start earlier if they'd want to add in those games. Yeah, and you know, I'm all all for it, but if especially get me getting paid by the game.

We don't have a pre We we tried calling in a while ago, but I guess our numbers saved is our son. But yes, speaking of bricks, we got a chance to go to the uh the game on Tuesday night and had a chance to stay after and we were some of the last people there and just to shout out to Coach Pope. Literally, I mean it's two hours after the game and my son Brex, him and our oldest daughter she's eleven, Conley literally talked to him like we knew them. It was wild and so like they knew us our whole life. And then Brex asked if he could go out on the floor and dunk on the roperena floor and Coach Pope told him to go out there and dunk on it.

You know, heartbreak.

You know, heartbreak.

Heartbreak doesn't doesn't wait for anybody, waits for no man or cow. That was really cool though, that Mark Poe would let a kid go out on the rupperina floor, and that reminded me when I was a kid. You know, I talked about as a kid going to Nashville and going to Vanderbilt games. One of the things that like struck me as almost odd as that back in the nineties, if you went to a game in Vanderbilt at Memorial Gym, like before the game and like after the game, you could just walk on the floor like there was really not any really no security at all. And I remember, like, you know, I would go out and get the player's autographs and stuff before the games that would come out and you'd catch them and say, hey, will you sign this for me? I remember there was one game it was Vandy and Florida and the coach at the time was Jan Van Bredakoff, and you know, they have those benches on the end zones, and I remember it was like maybe five minutes before tip off, and I wanted to get his autograph and I literally.

Go up.

Go up.

And he's sitting on the bench and I walk up and I'd tap him on the shoulder and I go, coach, would you sign this for me?

And he's sitting on the bench and I walk up and I'd tap him on the shoulder and I go, coach, would you sign this for me?

And he was nice enough to do it.

But I'm looking back, going, I should not have done that like that.

That's how old was shon the dude back then.

That's how old was shon the dude back then.

Yeah, like twelve, maybe you know, thirteen, maybe something like that. But I'm going, man, and now that I think about it, that was a really, really, really bad thing.

Yeah, like twelve, maybe you know, thirteen, maybe something like that. But I'm going, man, and now that I think about it, that was a really, really, really bad thing.

I shouldn't have done that.

I shouldn't have done that.

Like I feel almost feel guilty about it now, all these years later, for going up and tapping the coach on the shoulder right before the game's about the start. You know, he's like in game mode and he's nice enough to sign it for me.

Like I feel almost feel guilty about it now, all these years later, for going up and tapping the coach on the shoulder right before the game's about the start. You know, he's like in game mode and he's nice enough to sign it for me.

But I'm going, what was I thinking?

Well, Ballsy moved by you to just think five minutes before tip, he's got nothing to do.

Well, Ballsy moved by you to just think five minutes before tip, he's got nothing to do.

Yeah, I mean Bara saw on this.

Yeah, I mean Bara saw on this.

Yeah, hey, I mean, look, he's available, he's not talking to anybody. I'll I'll just go up to him and goes to show you the difference between security at Kentucky and Bandy, Right, I mean, oh yeah, going up to Rick Patino or somebody back in the day five minutes before tip.

Yeah, hey, I mean, look, he's available, he's not talking to anybody. I'll I'll just go up to him and goes to show you the difference between security at Kentucky and Bandy, Right, I mean, oh yeah, going up to Rick Patino or somebody back in the day five minutes before tip.
