I guess Forde was at the game, and for whatever reason, Jones was on the loudspeaker afterwards and fired some shots at our favorite writer. It's supposed to be on KSR later.

It was awesome. to the tune of we're 31-0 and just 1 year ago 'there was a writer who said you made your bed Cal, lay in it'. It was amazing.

Awesome!

We've had quite a run since those words were printed.

Gotta give MJ credit.

That was juvenile and dumb if you ask me.

Whether we like Forde or not, he's has a national platform, how do you think he's gonna view the cats now? Think he'll be as apt to bite his tongue after that?

Who cares how he views UK? Last time he wrote a negative piece on UK and Cal it backfired on him big time.

He's a total UK hater. Nothing anyone can do to make him hate UK more than he already does so I say let him have it with both barrels.

I think think Cal loves it when Jones does that stuff. I'm pretty sure I've heard Cal talk about Not Jerry Tipton too.

A national platform? Really? In what nation?

Did you give your milk money to the bully in school? I like it. About time we stood up to these guys and call them out. Good job MJ. He never bit his tongue anyway.

That was Mr. Jones giving a UK hater his just desserts. Forde needs to be called out at every opportunity, because he is a butt-hurt Pitino lover. He will continue to dog UK and Cal every chance he gets whether Matt calls him out or not. So I say expose him for the no-nothing hack he is!!

It is a bit juvenile. Those guys do need to be called out when excessive with their negativity and criticism. I'm just not sure of the best way to do it.

Good job Matt!! Glad to see someone blast a hater that has that kind of opportunity, bill derington, you need to get over yourself. As much crap as he, Tipton, & goodman say/write, they deserve more than what Matt did.

What you are saying is Forde is such a low life POS that he is going to punish UK over words some media person says? Is that the way it works?

Let him hate because once you fall to the hatred he has expressed over the years you can't hate anymore. He was not at Rupp to say nice things about Kentucky.

My question is, how did he get in the door? I hope he bought his ticket.

Bill, I love ya buddy, but Matt Jones has a world wide platform. A phone call on his show trended number one world wide on Twitter. He has such a bigger voice than Pat Forde.

Forde is nothing more than a hack with an agenda, he deserves all the doo doo that may rain upon him.

One jackass embarrassing himself in public trying to call out another jackass. Sounds about right.

Sounds pretty unnecessary to me. No reason to acknowledge Forde or anybody like him on a day like today, in that setting. Matt is just a negative person.

that's the beauty of Matt's position - he doesn't have to be professional - he's signed up to be a UK homer and plays it to the hilt

I bet Bill and Bobby are a real joy to hang out with! Give me a break. Forde deserves every bit of criticism that comes his way. People like him who spew ignorance need to be called out. Maybe it will help stop that ish. I hope to hear a sound bite of what Matt said. If anybody has a link to it, please post it!

The next time you and Patrick are cuddling, make sure you tell him that we hope he has learned his lesson.

I don't get it why is it ok for a national writer like Forde spew negative junk about UK and Cal but when some one like Matt Jones (like him or not) calls them out and rubs it in a little UK fans are supposed to be respectful. Matt Jones is not an unbiased reporter doesn't pretend to be. He is a UK guy and proud to support his chosen team and tell everyone else to kiss it. You may not like Matt Jones and that's ok to each is own but I say Matt Jones pour it on him!

I'm just saying if we are the best basketball program, which we are then who gives a crap what someone like Forde says, enjoy the moment and act like the best. Just makes himself and the fan base look like we are content with 31-0. Wait until we win something to act like that if you're going to. We are Kentucky.

Who cares, except the Louisville butthurt? Forde is an idiot for even showing up to Rupp Arena. Too many of his unrelated missives have reached desperately for random tie-ins just for the purpose of taking jabs at the University of Kentucky when his primary subject was at best scarcely related (I'm being generous). It is as if every assignment he receives he welcomes for it's potential to do just that. This isn't even a general summary of how Forde has pursued his unresolved issues against UK at the expense of his career and personal reputation. So screw him. Literally, I wish somebody would have done something much more "unprofessional" to Pat Forde before he left the building today. That's just how classless I am. Hate me.

If this was on the post game show, Matt is at Country Boy Brewery not Rupp. Unless Forde was tuned in he probably didn't hear it.

2 unprofessional types....I say let 'em go at it.

But, and I assume I'm reading this wrong, the PA system at Rupp shouldn't be used to do so.

Maybe they can get their own reality TV show? If people like to watch the Kardashian's, why not?
