Kentucky Sports Radio

[Moderated by Matt Jones, Drew Franklin and Tyler Thompson]
Ok, now it is time for the Kentucky Sports Radio folks to come out in full support. Thanks to a nice reader’s (who may be delusional) suggestion, I was nominated for an “Attractive Sports Blogger” bracket at another sports blog (the very funny Ladies Sports Blog. Now of course we know that is silly and the hottest blogger on this here blog is of course Hubby, but now that I am in it….I am in it to win it…..and also show the world that Kentucky Sports Radio can bring the funk in terms of support. In the 88 blogger field, I am in an 11-12 matchup, which according to the rankings is the equivalent of an 8-9 game in the NCAA. Now of course, that means it should be close….but it looks as if I am going up against a guy who is from the very popular “With Leather” blog (which is great) and is a friend of the ladies creating the bracket (which at this point I am not…but you never know….). So I need your help. Click below and cast a vote….even if you dont think I am particularly attractive (although the females know different)…..if you do so, the power of Kentucky Sports can be shown…..it even can take me to a winning promised land…..
And yes, I do think it is funny that complete strangers picked a blog about Patrick Patterson and Jai Lucas as a “representative” post of this site….very smart young ladies…..

John Feinstein is a sexy mother……That fat hairy pig…
June 6th, 2007 at 10:53 am
I voted for you Matt, but you are losing big right now! GO CATS. Thanks again for this great FREE Board!
June 6th, 2007 at 11:02 am
Looks like it is tied up now….hoping for the late returns from the whiskey giveaways
June 6th, 2007 at 11:03 am
72 – 73 Matts up.
June 6th, 2007 at 11:05 am
Matt is ahead…79-74
June 6th, 2007 at 11:05 am
Total farce since I am not in it.
June 6th, 2007 at 11:07 am
Good Luck Matt!!
June 6th, 2007 at 11:09 am
i’m still debating if my man love for you is high enough to vote for you in a “looks” contest.
June 6th, 2007 at 11:10 am
go matt go
June 6th, 2007 at 11:11 am
Matt over 100 votes now!!! KSR deserves this win!
June 6th, 2007 at 11:14 am
go matt
June 6th, 2007 at 11:14 am
ok, i voted, but seriously a Brewers shirt. At least your hair was somewhat cut.
)
June 6th, 2007 at 11:15 am
Matts up 118-81
June 6th, 2007 at 11:19 am
Maybe I could vote for the girl who answers the phone on the radio show. She sounds cute. But I feel werid voting for a guy in a looks poll. Will have to get the girl at the next desk to come over and click the vote.
June 6th, 2007 at 11:22 am
I felt really gay voting. Oh well, Matt is now up 147-86.
June 6th, 2007 at 11:24 am
i gotcha Matt…u are in the lead not to jinx ya…haha…but what do u think about that Clarke guy we offered…willie warrens teammate…is he gonna be a package deal with willie….id take that, with darius miller(maybe)…..and another stud athlete…
June 6th, 2007 at 11:25 am
I voted, you are up pretty big!
June 6th, 2007 at 11:26 am
I feel like a Village Person, but I voted too. Matt’s up like 163-83 or something right now.
June 6th, 2007 at 11:28 am
I like it how Matt is in the same situation that UK was in the NCAA: If he wins the first round, he should go up against the number one seed. Coincidence? I think not! But I can’t tell if the bracket’s actually set up properly like that….
June 6th, 2007 at 11:28 am
To “seal” the deal, all Matt needs now is his picture on the front of SI. Oh wait, that’s a jinx, isn’t it?
June 6th, 2007 at 11:28 am
I vote for and with Matt, but props is due: http://withleather.com/post.phtml?pk=3042
June 6th, 2007 at 11:31 am
#23….I love that blog….but the guy I am against is not the main guy on that site I dont think.
But it, Deadspin, The Big Lead, Kissing Suzy Kolber, etc are the best
June 6th, 2007 at 11:44 am
I got neg burns, BACK OFF!
June 6th, 2007 at 11:45 am
I fear I’m one of the few female regulars to this site, so I gave you some love on their board, matt! I think a lot of these guys might be questioning themselves right now…
June 6th, 2007 at 11:45 am
Hmmm. Maybe it’s a phobic thing, but I think it’s a bit gay to vote for which guy is more attractive. I applaud the guys here in touch with their anima (female side).
Reminds me of 40 year old virgin…”you know how I know you’re gay….”
June 6th, 2007 at 11:46 am
Up pretty big now. It’s like 3-1
June 6th, 2007 at 11:47 am
I know where Matt has tons of fans who would vote for him…TCP!
*pauses for the boos and hisses*
June 6th, 2007 at 11:48 am
#26 thanks…..need all the female love we can get around here….it is a very testosterone dominated site
June 6th, 2007 at 11:50 am
Do what!
June 6th, 2007 at 11:52 am
Matt has substantially more votes than the number one seed.
June 6th, 2007 at 11:55 am
Matt your obviously a talented, intelligent guy but you’ve been hit with the ugly stick my friend. Its a good thing you cant see the other guys face.
Hopefully all of us handsomely challenged guys can set aside any phobia’s and vote you all the way to victory!
June 6th, 2007 at 11:58 am
Is that the only picture of you? Might want to upgrade… need to borrow my polaroid?
June 6th, 2007 at 12:00 pm
#33 still laughing…thanks
June 6th, 2007 at 12:01 pm
Matt from what I noticed about the other match ups was the guys with girls in their photos were wining hand over fist so change your pick to include yourself and some female friends
June 6th, 2007 at 12:02 pm
Yes, I’ve noticed that (the testosterone). I like your attitude 33. What’s wrong with the rest of yall anything to win, nothing but the best Cats fans? Show some pride…get over your insecurities and vote for your boy!
June 6th, 2007 at 12:04 pm
ok Matt you now owe me.
June 6th, 2007 at 12:06 pm
279-97 matt. we have no life.
June 6th, 2007 at 12:08 pm
Think you are going to wrap that up pretty easily. There was about a 5 vote increase just in the time I voted and checked it 30 seconds later. Good luck!
June 6th, 2007 at 12:09 pm
the pic does need to be updated but the only other two online are the one where I look 12 and my famous chest hair shot….neither of those were going up
and even if you 33 think I was hit by the ugly stick….your wife doesn’t
June 6th, 2007 at 12:11 pm
Thanks for not answering my question…i think i will cHANGE MY VOTE NOW…PEACE..
June 6th, 2007 at 12:12 pm
I’m in 11-12 matchup too, over in the Mid-Atlantic Conference (a.k.a The Shanoff Division), and it’s a close one. So you know, if you feel like showing your love for an 11 seed…
June 6th, 2007 at 12:14 pm
sorry 42….love Clarke…get he and Warren and we are set on the perimeter for the next few years….
June 6th, 2007 at 12:19 pm
I voted for you, but now I feel gay. Someone hold me…..
Good thing you had just had a haircut. You should save the clippings and put them on E-bay.
June 6th, 2007 at 12:21 pm
Maybe so, but Matt just doesn’t lay there like you do.
June 6th, 2007 at 12:23 pm
I voted for you 5 times and the other guy only once. I think I owed him a vote based on the post comparison. The guy was talking about competitive kite flying……frickin kite flying man with broken glass coated strings! Patterson and Jai are old news, but competitive kite flying…..now thats news!!
June 6th, 2007 at 12:26 pm
Matt I went to the site and put my mouse over your name to vote but just felt too gay and this kept me from clicking. Sorry.
June 6th, 2007 at 12:26 pm
I voted, sorry dad…
June 6th, 2007 at 12:27 pm
36) Read an article a while back that said when looking at pictures of men, women find them more attractive if there are smiling women in the photo (makes them think it’s a good guy). Men, while looking at the same picture, label the guy as less attractive (out of subconscious jealousy).
Given that this is a poll for women voting on attractive male bloggers, it would probably help, as you suggested.
June 6th, 2007 at 12:30 pm
This is off the PRETTY BOY subject… Does anyone know when the Schedule will be out?
June 6th, 2007 at 12:31 pm
Matt is crushing everyone else in the contest by about 245 votes.
June 6th, 2007 at 12:31 pm
The schedule probably wont be out till August or later.
June 6th, 2007 at 12:32 pm
Voted for you Matt you have more votes I believe then any one else period…around 350…not shabby…how often can you vote?
June 6th, 2007 at 12:33 pm
Has this turned in to a funny boy site?
June 6th, 2007 at 12:33 pm
53 Thanks. Looks like we’ve lost our focus.
June 6th, 2007 at 12:34 pm
Well, when getting my weekly manicure, I overheard some hotties chattering ’bout how sexy a man is in a Brewers sweatshirt.
June 6th, 2007 at 12:36 pm
Matt,
Looks like you’ve got an incredible support cast working behind you!!
June 6th, 2007 at 12:37 pm
you’ve got over 370 votes so far Matt!
June 6th, 2007 at 12:40 pm
Doing well matt, i predict at least a run into the third or fourth round!
June 6th, 2007 at 12:40 pm
Matt, when I voted you were up 76% to his 24%. Poor guy, never saw the KSR/BBN coming….
June 6th, 2007 at 12:40 pm
Tennessee is going to be fierce next season. BP is petitioning the NCAA to waive Tyler Smith’s transfer year and let him play this season on account of his dad having cancer. CL will probably spend a lot more time at point this year and Duke Crews will be playing away from the basket more.
IMO we all just want to win this contest because we see KSR as a part of Kentucky. We arent voting for Matt because we think he looks good we are voting because we want to win everything even a blogger beauty contest.
June 6th, 2007 at 12:41 pm
Seems like you should be wearing a UK sweatshirt AT LEAST. This is KENTUCKY sports radio.
June 6th, 2007 at 12:42 pm
Wow!! Matt, I think its safe to say you’ll get past round 1 ….. and probably every other round with all the votes already cast
Isn’t it great to be a KY fan — we all look out for each other !! LMAO
June 6th, 2007 at 12:43 pm
62) So true, we always want to win no matter the contest. Can you competitive????
June 6th, 2007 at 12:43 pm
** Can you SAY competitive?**
June 6th, 2007 at 12:45 pm
Hey Matt, is it just me or is COACH BCG offering all the top players, and saying first come, first serve. If you can’t commit, then find another ship. Cats are off and sailing! I want players who like Scott Padgett when he was offered said “If you are offering me a scholarship, I am taking it!” Gotta love the excitement surrounding the program right now. Hope that translates to W’s on the court next season!
June 6th, 2007 at 12:47 pm
should we start voting for ugliest guys in the other match ups so that Matt looks like george clooney when he matches up with them in the next round
June 6th, 2007 at 12:49 pm
Good idea Barney, Lets all vote for the underdogs, and take out some of the contenders!!!
June 6th, 2007 at 12:49 pm
Matt is beating the 1 and 2 seeds combined. Looks like he was trucked by the seeding committee! Oh well, rock on JONES, you handsome devil!
June 6th, 2007 at 12:50 pm
ha! Matt has about twice the number of votes for just him than any other of the combined match-up totals.
June 6th, 2007 at 12:51 pm
Let’s vote for Stan Gable, and take Deadspin out first!!!
June 6th, 2007 at 12:54 pm
well, i’m not a girl, but i voted for ya anyway matt!
you are ahead with 77% of the vote, ppl must like you a lot dude!
June 6th, 2007 at 1:02 pm
I really think we need the thoughts of Jai Lucas and Patrick Patterson on Matt’s chances, specifically are they willing to commit to voting for him.
June 6th, 2007 at 1:06 pm
haha! I’m sure Jai’s father and Pat’s mom would be willing to release a statement regarding this issue. i love how competitive we all are! I say we dont vote for any one else…that way matt’s numbers will just blow everyone out of the water!
June 6th, 2007 at 1:06 pm
66)/bcgobsession…I see you had a lot of support last night..
(and Hi)
Yeah Matt is going to win with all the “man-crushes” lol
June 6th, 2007 at 1:07 pm
I’d bet it would take Lucas a couple of months to decide if & who he was going to vote for; I’ll go out on a limb & say that Matt is in his top 3 choices
June 6th, 2007 at 1:08 pm
76) Hey VinK– I read that a minute ago, what are you talking about???
June 6th, 2007 at 1:11 pm
78) Just all the male support you were getting (just messin with ya…you are so loved in the blog)
June 6th, 2007 at 1:14 pm
79) You’re funny. Females need thier egos stroked too! JUST KIDDING!!!
Matt, you’re up by a large margin, its in the (Cats) bag.
June 6th, 2007 at 1:16 pm
79) I’d like my support in the form of UK b-ball tickets please.
June 6th, 2007 at 1:17 pm
OK this cracks me up. We refuse to lose anything. And now that Smarty Jones is our horse. I figure we will ride his ugly face all the way to the championship.
June 6th, 2007 at 1:21 pm
So…it looks like Donovan will get to go back to the gaytors with the no compete for five years in the NBA clause in his exiting contract)He is such a bitch
June 6th, 2007 at 1:21 pm
Matt, OK, I will vote for you. But if you run for a political
office, then that is a different matter.
June 6th, 2007 at 1:23 pm
81) Same here…but hey I am sure you could get a few…seems you had an offer to go to Rupp Yesterday! (although I do not know if the offers were clean and free lol/j/k) I think they (the offerers) know more than I do… haha
June 6th, 2007 at 1:26 pm
Other guy just threw in towel. Victory. You should talk to the tournament committee. You were screwed on that seed! Did you have a bad regular season blog? What was your RPI. Maybe it was your strength of schedule. Throw in a pic of Gidel…that’ll seal the 15-21 female demographic.
June 6th, 2007 at 1:26 pm
I don’t know how I feel about voting for a dude in a “beauty” contest..Matt, if you win this contest what do you win or will you just advance to another level and enter another “beauty” contest for dudes?
June 6th, 2007 at 1:29 pm
Speaking of tickets when does camping out for Madness tickets officially start or maybe it’s better to ask when tickets become available?
June 6th, 2007 at 1:29 pm
Yeah Matt, with that poor seeding…was Tubby coaching ya? (sorry)
June 6th, 2007 at 1:32 pm
85) Highly doubt those were free offers, for all I know they could be dirty old men!! LOL Again, J/K!!!
Freaking donovan, this is just working out in his favor, yes, now recruits know he’ll be around another 5 years. Of course, he could opt to go to a different college team, although we know its not likely to happen. But I have to agree with somebody who posted earlier that he can always breach the contract. I mean who’s to say that he can’t be bought out of this non compete clause?
June 6th, 2007 at 1:34 pm
88) Ask Wally, he was always out about 5 days prior, well until some other guy with nothing to do beat him that one year. Tickets shouldn’t be available until Oct 15, the day of, right? Or has it changed?
June 6th, 2007 at 1:36 pm
This whole Donovan situation worked out better for him in the long run..not only did he back out of a contract which I thought would hurt his rep with recruits, but now recruits now know for at least 5 years he will be at the University of Florida and will not go to the NBA, terminating any doubt..it also gives an opportunity for the talking heads at ESPN to blow Donovan even more about how he LOVES the college game so much and how he couldn’t give that up and how his decision to come back will not harm him in any way because it was the “right” thing to do..well played Mr. Donovan, well played
June 6th, 2007 at 1:37 pm
“Females need thier egos stroked too!”
Is that what we’re calling them now?
June 6th, 2007 at 1:37 pm
You mean as a poster on this blog we don’t get offered midnight madness tickets? ( J/K had to say it)
June 6th, 2007 at 1:39 pm
Matt, your kicking his ass!
June 6th, 2007 at 1:40 pm
Stop stealing my work.
June 6th, 2007 at 1:45 pm
I dont know the exact day but its ususally sometime in october and there are new rules about camping. I think you can only camp out a couple days in advance instead of weeks now.
June 6th, 2007 at 1:46 pm
#91..the last time I went to Midnight Madness (2002) I had the tix before the day of I believe..I like Midnight Madness but it had become a little stale..this year’s should be crazy!!
June 6th, 2007 at 1:48 pm
OK the dude Matt is up agianst is a joker it’s not a talk to the hand contest!You cant even see his face.I need to start my own blog cause them are some retarted pics.Keep voting it’s a blow out!
June 6th, 2007 at 1:48 pm
I really cant stand the girls part of the hour. I know we have to be fair but Id rather see the guys play more.
June 6th, 2007 at 1:51 pm
Last time I went I got my tickets from a season ticket holder (apparently their’s got mailed out). This years will be GREAT!!! I’m planning on flying in for it, should be a great weekend, Midnight Madness, Keeneland…. I’m sooooo excited!!!
93)Feeling the blond right now, but what are you saying?
June 6th, 2007 at 1:51 pm
If wee keep up the good voting Matt will win. He said he will take us all out for PIZZA~!
June 6th, 2007 at 1:53 pm
That made me terribly uncomfortable, but I voted for you Matt.
June 6th, 2007 at 1:53 pm
I voted. KSR is slammin….
June 6th, 2007 at 1:54 pm
Go Matt Jones

104 you need what I got dazed and confusing
June 6th, 2007 at 1:56 pm
101) Make sure you wear a shirt with your blog screenname on it…(at the madness) how else will would I recognize ya!
June 6th, 2007 at 1:58 pm
100) If all you’re going to do is whine, go to another site.
June 6th, 2007 at 2:01 pm
I see Matt is approaching the 600 vote mark! It would be interesting tho to see how many females voted for ya….guess we will never know…
June 6th, 2007 at 2:01 pm
Matt u hae it in the bank
June 6th, 2007 at 2:06 pm
106 Hope they didn’t print more than 25 of those. What dude would wear that nonsense? Seriously. I hope they hang a banner of his face in their rafters. Because it looks like having a coach whose name rhymes with chubby is all they can celebrate.
June 6th, 2007 at 2:08 pm
We need shirts that say “G Spot” (for Gillispie)– at least it would be funny, chubby for tubby??? Sounds kinda mean.
101) Great idea– I’d die before wearing a shirt that says that! I love him & all, but don’t want to scare him off…. LOL
June 6th, 2007 at 2:09 pm
I voted and now I feel like a whore…
June 6th, 2007 at 2:11 pm
Just voted. Good luck Matt!
http://www.wildcatheaven.net
June 6th, 2007 at 2:13 pm
I missed yesterday’s broadcast. Anyone remember the full top 10 list of the best multi sport Kentucky HS athlets? I’m curious because I played ball back in the day with a guy who I think should be on the list.
June 6th, 2007 at 2:15 pm
#116..who was that?
June 6th, 2007 at 2:15 pm
113) You are funny!! 101 is your post by the way. lol
June 6th, 2007 at 2:31 pm
118) OOPS! That should have been 108, but I guess you got that! I’m having a bit of a blond day– for some reason I’m a little dingy today!
June 6th, 2007 at 2:40 pm
How gay is this board!
June 6th, 2007 at 2:42 pm
119) tiz cool…you always make me grin…lol
June 6th, 2007 at 2:44 pm
@ 41 – Matt, your right. My wife does like the tall guys with dark hair but she hates lawyers…..sorry. ;o)
June 6th, 2007 at 2:53 pm
The shirtless guy in the contest needs a tan. ICK
June 6th, 2007 at 3:05 pm
123) Looks like he need some lipo too…hahaha
June 6th, 2007 at 5:28 pm
Let’s vote Matt into the final, then once he reaches the final everyone switch their votes to the other guy and let Matt lose by like 4 million votes in humiliating fasion thus prematurely ending his beauty pagent career and saving him from a Jon Benet-esque fate having pimped himself out before his life had ever really began.
June 6th, 2007 at 5:32 pm
Yeah, I just voted for you twice. If you reload, you can vote again and again. If someone cared enough (Matt) you could spend the rest of the day racking up 20,000 votes.
June 6th, 2007 at 6:48 pm
I voted for you too, Matt. Hope you make it to the finals!
June 6th, 2007 at 9:34 pm
I just cast my vote (for you). You lead 1040-406.
