Hey, local media: KSR challenges YOU to a 4x100 relay

ksr-relay If you listened to today's show, you may have heard Matt throw down the gauntlet to our colleagues that cover Kentucky sports. In true "Anchorman" style, Matt challenged the local media to a 4x100 relay, betting that he, Shannon, Drew, and Ryan could beat any foursome of sports reporters in the state. "We will challenge any media outlet in a 4x100 race, anytime. I throw the gauntlet down. If you're a media outlet in the state of Kentucky, let's go," Matt said, noting that each outlet has to use their primary reporters, not their interns. "You pick your four and we've got our four and we'll roll." There is some debate over who would be on KSR's team, but we'll let you, the readers, pick the best foursome from our vastly talented squad:
  • Matt (history of back problems)
  • Drew (history of shin splints)
  • Ryan (claims he can beat anyone)
  • Shannon (former baseball player)
  • Tyler (actual runner, albeit long distance)
  • Nick (former football player)
  • Freddie (former football player)
  • Maria (former college athlete)
Or, maybe we'll just have two teams in the race. Let's look at the rest of the field:

LEX18 True Blue Team

  • Alan Cutler
  • Keith Farmer
  • Dorian Craft
  • Jonathan Dunn

WKYT News Team

  • Dave Baker
  • Rob Bromley
  • Lee K. Howard
  • Brian Milam

Sunday Morning Sports Talk Team

  • Larry Vaught
  • Anthony White
  • Mark Buerger
  • Curtis Burch

KSTV Team

  • Bradley "B-Roll" McKee
  • TJ Beisner
  • Garrett Moore
  • Clayton Abernathy

93.9 The Ville Team 

  • Mike Rutherford
  • John Ramsey, aka "Captain Suntan"
  • Drew Deener
  • Mark Ennis

Sports Radio 790/WHAS Team

  • Tony Vanetti
  • David Jennings
  • Terry Meiners
  • Leland Conway

Herald-Leader Team

  • Jerry Tipton
  • John Clay
  • Mark Story
  • Ben Roberts

Cats Illustrated Team

  • Justin Rowland
  • TJ Walker
  • Derek Terry
  • Josh Ellis

Here's my projected order of finish:

1. KSR 2. KSTV 3. Sunday AM Sports Talk (Larry and Mark are runners, Anthony White is still more athletic than any of us) 4. LEX 18 True Blue Team (As he proved during the Gillispie chase, Cutler can run) 5. Cats Illustrated 6. 93.9 The Ville Team (Ramsey does GTL) 7. WKYT News Team 8. Sports Radio 790/WHAS Team 9. Herald-Leader Team
