Welcome, everybody. It is the KSR pre-show. It's Thursday, July 31st, August coming tomorrow.

Shannon, the dude, hanging out here with you in Louisville, and you can give us a call on the Clark's Puppet Shop phone line at 859-2-80-2-827.

The Or Whiskey Thief Call of the Day. KSR Pre-show is always being brought to you by Atalix, Fine Italian Dining

in Lexington. You can also send us a text at 502-2-265-66-5-6. I'm being joined this morning as always

by my good buddy, Billy R Sports in Rutledge, in Lexington, Billy Rutledge in Lexington. Billy and

Rutledge, that's right. Billy the Rutledge joining meington. And Ruttledge. Yeah, Billy and Ruttledge. That's right.

Billy the Ruttledge joining me this morning. You know, I think Matt thought that you and I maybe were a little combative yesterday, but I just want to put that rumor to rest.

So he says that he was trying to throw as hard as he could. That's not a good enough excuse. You need to have a little bit of throwing it as hard as you can and technique. But, Shannon, you're right.
