Speaker 1 (00:00):
Right, how about an ass whipping of the Cleveland Browns.
How about playoff baseball starting tomorrow. Hey, things don't suck,
and that's a positive. It's always good when things don't suck.
Other things that don't suck. Awesome turnout. Awesome job everybody
(00:22):
for bringing out bikes on Saturday afternoon, Saturday morning, Saturday
afternoon for the free Bikes for Kids event we did.
I don't have the total number yet, and I'm sure
Casey will give it to me at some point, but
just from our location, I feel like there were probably
three or four hundred bikes dropped off, unbelievable, and they
(00:42):
had other locations around town on Saturday. There's gonna be
a lot of bikes that were donated. So you guys
are wonderful. Thank you. Credit to you. Awesome job. Thanks
to everybody with free Bikes for kids, Bob and everybody
with free bikes for kids, all the volunteers, the band
whole shot was great as well. They're good dudes, so
a really awesome thing on Saturday. Thank you guys for
(01:05):
making that possible. Coming up in the seven o'clock hour,
I am going to let you know how you just
might win tickets to see Monday night football when Tampa
comes to town. That's gonna be a hot ticket. I
know that Tampa lost yesterday, but that's a good football
(01:25):
team and they're gonna come to town here in a
few weeks to take on our boys, and I'm gonna
have a chance for you to go. I'm gonna give
you all the details on that coming up a little
after seven o'clock, so be listening for that. We had
(01:47):
a lot to get into today. We'll have sports here
in just a few minutes. You'll hear from Dan Campbell,
you'll hear from aj Hinch. So I brought up the
free bikes for Kids event and I met a listener
named Joe. Joe's with eighty four lumber, and he handed
me a piece of paper. It says, can you remember
to play this song for me when we get rocked
(02:10):
and loaded at six o'clock. I was shocked that anybody
even knew that I did that. The guy goes, hey,
you play you know, you play a fun song every morning,
some sort of up tempo, energetic song, something to get
us going in the morning, and go wow, I didn't
know anyone listened. Thank you, Joe. Joe from eighty four
lumber says, hey, can you play seven Marry three Cumbersome
(02:33):
to kick things off on Monday? I said, Joe, since
you're quite literally the only person listening, I'll play a
whole damn day's worth of music for you. But it's
the least I can do to play seven Mary three.
Sports coming up in a few and cumbersome. Now we
are Detroit's Wheels, one of six forty seven Detroit's Wheels.
(02:54):
Josh and is show time for sports. Lion's got a yesterday,
they kind of it felt like they slept walk through
a lot of the game, and then when they needed
to turn it on at the end they did. There
was a stretch where I went to the station Facebook
page and I posted like, come on wake up. Of
course I got all these people angry, because people are dopes,
(03:15):
But I felt like they should have been dominating that game,
and they just kind of let the Browns hang around.
Third quarter. It was only a ten point game, but
then you got the big Khalif Raymond punt return touchdown
and they pulled away and won thirty four to ten.
And now the Lions are three and one. Now, Dan
Campbell talked with the team after the game in the
(03:37):
locker room and they said it was a nice win,
but look, it could have been a whole lot better.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
It wasn't good enough. If I'm being totally honest with you,
I'm just it wasn't good enough. There's so many areas
where we sought ourselves in the foot and we cannot
do that. Okay, I'm just being honest. Now, it's not
gonna ruin on Sunday for the rest of the week.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
I can promise you that three and one is the
Lions record right now. Now, a team that would have
killed have gone three and one over the last four
games as the Tigers, it might have won them the
division and might have gotten them home Baseball. Instead, the
Tigers finished the month of September seven and seventeen. Here's
a little stat from Bob Nightingale at USA today that
(04:18):
seven and seventeen record for the Tigers in September is
the worst record in the final month of a season
by a playoff team since the World Series began in
nineteen oh three. And after playing three games against Cleveland,
after playing an entire season's worth of games against Cleveland,
now it's the Tigers in Cleveland again in Cleveland, and
(04:43):
aj Hinch says it actually kind of helps to know
your enemy, and playing against Cleveland so many times gives
you kind of an advantage.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
You ever play somebody in your division, you're gonna have
seen them a ton, usually in September, at least the
way the old.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Schedule used to be.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
So it'll get we'll get to Cleveland, and we have
plenty of time to get ready for a team we
know well.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Well, Trek Scooble's gonna get the ball in Game one. Now,
there was some debate about whether or not the Tigers
should throw Scooble to try to win the division, but
I think that debate may have had more merit had
it been a win and you guarantee the division type
of thing, which obviously wasn't the case. They would have
had to have won the game Cleveland would have had
(05:22):
to have lost. Cleveland actually won their game in extra innings.
They were down eight to five going into the bottom
of the tenth and extra innings, hit a three run
walk off home run and ended up winning that game,
so it wouldn't have maddened either way. Cleveland wins the
division and the Tigers capped off their historic collapse again.
They had a fifteen and a half game lead at
one point in the division. But hey, you're in the dance,
(05:45):
and you got Schooble going in game one, and if
you can get a dominant Schooble performance, you just need
to win one of the next two games. All of
those games, the first two were at one oh eight,
and if it's necessary, game three also at one oh eight.
All those games will be played in Cleveland. Last night,
while you were sleeping, the Cowboys and Packers fought to
(06:11):
a forty to forty tie. How do we have NFL
games ending in ties? Baseball games don't end in ties.
College football games don't end in tie. Basketball games don't
end in ties. Hockey technically ends in a tie. It
doesn't end in a tie. But in the NFL you
play seventy minutes of football forty to forty and oh,
(06:33):
by the way, it's a tie. Very lame. I stayed
up until the well past my bedtime last night to
watch a tie. AnyWho, All right, coming up just after
seven o'clock, I'm gonna give you the details on how
you might be seeing our boys take on Tampa on
Monday Night football in a few weeks, all those details
(06:54):
coming up. Just after seven o'clock. We are locked, we
are loaded, We're ready to go. It's the Josh Ennis
Show and we are Detroit's Wheels.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
This is the Josh Ennis Show on one OHO six
point seven Dollz.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Well of six point seven Detroit's Wheels, Josh and a show.
I am Josh. Hello, what's going on now? Some of
you message me or I met some of you even
out at the free Bikes for Kids event over the weekend.
And when I talk with people, they say, Josh, I
enjoy the show. Are you ever going to add anything
to the show? Will there be new people on the show?
Will it become a full on show and not just you?
(07:31):
Nothing against you, Josh, but will it ever have other
people involved in the show? And the answer is yes.
In fact, from what I understand, we might have a
new piece added to the show next week, from what
I understand, and that will not be the last piece
that will be added to this show. We got a
couple of spots to fill and we're still in the
process of doing that. But I'd like to fill you
(07:53):
guys in on this, so you guys know other things
people ask, like, why do you talk about sports so much? Well,
because sports are awesome. Sports are big in Detroit, and
the teams are really good. Well, the Tigers were good.
Now maybe they can all change our minds and motor
through this series against the guard Indians and be back
in the home playoff game. World will feel really good.
Or maybe they lose in this wild card series to
(08:15):
the guard Indians and it just puts a cap on
what was a big poop sandwich over the last month
and a half or so of the season. But I mean,
how are you not going to talk about a red
hot football team that's rattled off three wins in a row,
all of which have been dominating by the way, Like
I understand the Ravens game was relatively close, but statistically
that game was dominated by the Lions. They mauled the
(08:36):
Bears before that, and then yesterday they easily disposed of
the Browns. So like, these are the things that people
in the city are talking about. So when people are
critical or people say I don't want to hear about sports,
well most people do because it's a damn good sports
town and people are passionate about sports. And this show
is a show about what is happening locally for the
(08:57):
most part. Now, there will be national stories obviously, like
every radio show, there will be big stories that happen
that aren't here. Of course that's the case. But when
it comes to what the core of this show is,
it is about Detroit. It is for Detroit, for people
from Detroit. Like, that is what this is. This is
not a radio show that's worried about programming for the
(09:19):
five other radio stations we're on. I'm here. This is
live and local, and we're doing a show for you.
So if the Lions are what we're talking about because
they've won three games in a row, we're talking about
the freaking lives. We're talking about how the Tigers have
Schooble going tomorrow, and all of the bad that's been
done over the last month and a half can essentially
be reversed with two good games over about twenty eight hours.
(09:43):
It can really wipe a lot of nasty taste out
of our mouth if Scooble can go out and pitch
really well and get a w on Tuesday, and then
they go on to win that series and then we
get home playoff Baseball. So like those are the things
that people are talking about. Those are the things that
people find interesting, and that's what we're gonna talk about here.
They're gonna be when there's nothing in sports and we're
talking about a thousand other things. Then there will be
(10:04):
Mondays after the freaking Lions, mall the Browns, and that
the Tigers are in the playoffs, then we're gonna talk
a lot about that. But I like to tell you
guys this every now and then, in case you're new
to the show, in case you're wondering, like, why does
this guy talk so much about this? That's what we're
gonna do here. If it's not for you, it's not,
I hope it is. I hope you dig it. I
hope you really dig it. But that's how we're gonna
(10:24):
do things. We're supposed to have a new person added
to the show next week, and then later on down
the line we're gonna add somebody else, so there will
be fresh voices, new voices on the show, and it's
gonna be a great show, and we're gonna continue our
quest to destroy everybody. That's the goal. We need you,
We love you, thank.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
You, you know and improved Illyard Radio.
Speaker 1 (10:45):

Should be a hell of a game too. Tampa lost yesterday,
(12:51):
but once they get healthy, once they get Mike Evans
back and they get rolling offensively, they are really good.

it again yesterday against the Eagles, who I hate watching
play because they are terrible offensively. Anyway, we'll get a

and you get fifty bucks to Kroger, just cause we'll
do it again tomorrow right around this time, about seven
h five is seven ten ish. Make sure you're listening
every day at that time. Now to the sports. So
(15:49):
the Lions got the win yesterday and they pretty much dominated.
They kind of screwed around a little bit and kept
it close, but the fourth quarter they dominated and they
won by twenty four. They held I say they held
the Browns to ten points. I mean, the Browns offense
is terrible. Joe Flacco is terrible. Their offense is terrible.
Even in the game they won, they scored like thirteen points.
(16:09):
They're not a good offense. But Dan Campbell, talking with
the team in the locker room after the game, said,
we've dominated defensively.
Speaker 5 (16:15):
All right.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
And here's what we said going into this game. We
needed our defense to show up and we needed special teams.
Speaker 5 (16:20):
Man.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
That was the beginning of it. And then we played
smart football. We work ourselves in all that good stuff. Man,
We did that, all right. We did that. Big listen
defense man. Three takeaways, two interceptions, one fumble, punch out
and recovery are allowed. Only seventy nine rushing yards, three sacks,
and there were three or fourteen on third down. That's
defense how you played defense.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Track we did, in fact dominating. Then the offense took
over special teams of Khalif Raymond. Punt return for a
touchdown was also part of the equation that kind of
busted the game open. It was a little tens a
little too tight for our liking, but then Khalif Raymond
blew the whole thing open and that changed things baseball wise.
Game one tomorrow it is the guard Indians and the
(17:02):
Tigers live from Cleveland. One away to his first pitch.
In fact, one away will be first pitch in every game.
There will be at least two, there might be three.
And I feel good about our chances in Game one
because we've got Schooble going. In fact, the Tigers are
relatively heavy favorites in Game one because of Schooble. Now
it feels like they're doing nothing but playing Cleveland all
(17:24):
the time. And is aj Hinch worried about familiarity? Is
he concerned with how often these two teams play that
we know him well?
Speaker 3 (17:31):
I think the biggest, The biggest concern when you play
a division opponent, Boston's gonna have it with New York
is familiarity can be a blessing or a curse depending
on how you look at it, from being a little
bit too comfortable. So we're gonna have to turn over
every rock and make sure we're prepared and our guys
will be.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Ready for what it's worth. The World Series odds are
out and the Tigers are a very long shot to
win the whole thing. They are plus fifteen hundred. There
are only two teams with worse odds. Means you bet
one hundred bucks, you'd win fifteen hundred bucks. Okay, the
only teams with worse odds are the Red Sox, who
are plus twenty two hundred and the Reds who are
(18:09):
plus thirty five hundred. The favorite that this can't be right. Actually,
I think that there's a typo in this thing I'm
looking at. There's no way the guard Indians are the
favorite to win the whole thing. So somebody type this
out wrong. But the Guardians are also a very low
chance of winning the whole thing. The Phillies are actually
the favorite to win the whole thing. They are plus
(18:30):
four to twenty five. There is no way Cleveland is
plus three hundred to win the World Series. So somebody
typed out the wrong info. And if they are plus
three hundred, that means that the Tigers should be like
plus four hundred. So again that's gambling parlance for those
of you who are uninitiated. The bigger that number goes,
the less likely is they've put a plus in front
of it. In a bigger number, that means you're a
(18:52):
heavy underdog and the Tigers are highly unlikely to win
the World Series. But hey, stranger things have happened. I mean,
who would have thought that they would have blown fifteen
and a half game lead, So you never know. Green
Day on one of six point seven Detroit's wheels. Hi,
I'm Josh. I was reading a story about this, this
guy that shot up the church, the LDS church, And
(19:14):
obviously that was the biggest story in the state yesterday.
It was all over the place, And I was reading
a story about this that said it was a targeted attack.
Like I think we knew that, Like, I think that's
pretty obvious, right, Like when you hear like a guy
drove into a church then opened fire, in the church
that he drove into, and then he set the church
(19:36):
on fire. I mean that seems like a targeted attack.
Like I could almost believe that guy accidentally drives into church,
you know, like oops, made a wrong turn, took the
curve too sharp, going too fast, and oh, I ended
up in a house. In fact, one night, I was
asleep in my townhouse when I lived in Houston, and
there was this loud noise that woke us all up.
(19:58):
A dude had driven into the house across the street
from us, Like we were living in a townhouse, and
this guy drove right through the living room, like took
the curve and just drove right through it. So if
you tell me, hey, a guy accidentally drove into a building,
I can go all right, that's believable. Once you get
a guy that drives into the church, then opens fire
(20:20):
on people in the church and then sets it on fire,
I don't know that there's any other option other than oh,
that was a targeted attack. So the terrible story and
more details of that are coming out throughout the day,
and the guy is dead. The cops plugged his ass,
which good on them. But yeah, just a crappy story,
all around. But anyway, we'll let you know if anything
(20:42):
new comes of that story. But I mean, it's pretty
obvious it was a targeted attack. I appreciate the insight,
but that was pretty clear. All right. So we've got
a super Bowl halftime show. It is Bad Bunny, Bad Bunny.
And when I heard that, I go, someone's setting us
up here. Someone just wants old white guys to be
pissed on Facebook. We'll get into that coven up. Did
(21:04):
Josh in his show six point seven w l.
Speaker 4 (21:08):
Z Detroit's Wheels, Well of six point seven Detroit's Wheels,
Josh in a show so bad Bunny is going to
be the halftime show of the super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
If you don't know Bad Bunny, let me give you
a little taste of what he offers. Here you go,
that is a sample here of Bad Bunny. You'll be
hearing him. Maybe you'll hear this during the super Bowl.
I don't know. I think at this point the NFL
(21:51):
is just screwing with us, right, So I know who
Bad Bunny is. I couldn't tell you much of his music, okay,
but I know who he is. In fact, I know
him or from his appearance on Wrestling he was in
like a storyline in the WWE. I know more about
that that I know about his actual music. Here's my issue, right,
and this is an issue with the NFL. First of all,
(22:12):
Bad Bunny is Puerto Rican. He's a gigantic Latin star.
He's a global star. It is not debatable that he
has a gigantic audience. He is huge. Okay, I'm not
debating that. But my issue is the super Bowl is
an American event. It is a giant American event. I
know that a bunch of people watch it in like
Mexico and probably Brazil and a bunch of other places,
(22:34):
but it is American football. It is the super Bowl, right.
I have an issue when the super Bowl has a
dude who's like the vast majority of his music is
in Spanish. I'm not against the idea of Spanish music,
nor am I against the idea of Bad Bunny in
general or anything like that. My issue is in your
quest to globalize your sport, you're basically telling your main consumer,
(22:58):
the American football consumer, to go after yourself. And you
do this on a regular basis. That is why you
have a game at nine thirty in the morning yesterday
in Dublin, Ireland. That's why the Chiefs open the season
in Brazil. You're on this quest to turn football into
this giant global sport. Look, I get it, there's more
money in it for you. There's a lot in it
(23:20):
for the NFL to expand. I get that. But what
they are doing now in their quest to expand, which,
by the way, the commissioner this weekend said their goal
is to play one game a week in a different country.
They're just throwing up double birds to everybody who's been
the consumer of this sport in America forever. So then
you've got a super Bowl halftime show, and the super
(23:41):
Bowl halftime show is a dude who's most of his
music is in Spanish, and he's a dude that, like,
I consider myself someone who knows about music stuff, right,
Like I know Top forty stuff, I know the pop hits,
I know all that kind of stuff. My wife's worked
in it before. I like a lot of it, so
I know it and I follow it. We're at a
point where you're going with a guy that like people
(24:03):
like my wife and people like me, people who work
in it are like, I don't know anything this guy does.
That's a problem. Now, maybe they're just getting everybody turning
them down, like allegedly Taylor Swift turned them down, which
she doesn't need the super Bowl. They need her more
than she needs them, So like, fine, Taylor Swipt didn't
want to do it, but are you just running out
(24:24):
of people?
Speaker 5 (24:25):
Like?
Speaker 1 (24:25):
I know, we just played ACDC. There is no way
in hell they'd ever have ac DC play the super Bowl,
but your American audience, and the options are ac DC
and Bad Bunny. Who do you think they're going with?
Or at Metallica and Bad Bunny. And the reason I
think this is the setup though, is I just think
they want to see old white dudes run to social
(24:45):
media and cry about this so then they can all
point at white dudes and be like, see, they're horrible people.
They're terrible.
Speaker 5 (24:52):
No.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
I have nothing against the concept of Bad Bunny or
any Hispanic singer Hell Shakira was up there a couple
of years ago, but Shakira had hit that I knew.
I knew Shakira songs, I knew some Kendrick Lamar stuff.
I would know Beyonce stuff, I knew Rihanna stuff, I
knew Lady Gaga stuff. These were giant artists with a
ton of hits. This is a dude who the vast
(25:14):
majority of his music is in Spanish. I don't know
any of it. And this is like the biggest American
sporting event on the planet. This is our biggest thing.
And it's like, ah, I forget it. We got the
dude from Puerto Rico who has like a thousand songs
in Spanish, Like, what are we doing here? And I'm
fully aware that he's a gigantic global superstar. I'm not
(25:36):
a moron. I get that, and I'm not someone that's
pounding my chest saying, my god, we've got to have
metallicaar ac DC. Why can't we do rock shows? They
will never do another rock show. Just heads up, there
will never be another classic rock super Bowl halftime show.
There's not gonna be a Springsteen, there's not gonna be Aerosmith.
They've all done it. Tom Petty's obviously dead, Prince is dead,
(25:59):
like the people that have done it have done it,
Paul McCartney, they will never bring them back again. And
usually I don't bitch about this stuff, but the super
Bowl halftime show has a dude that the majority of
his music isn't even in English. Who are you doing
the halftime show for at this point? If you want
to in eight seven seven nine eight eight one oh
(26:20):
six seven eight seven seven nine eight eight one oh
six seven, that is the number. If you want to call,
you want to text, text the word Josh and your
message to five nine five seven zero. How you feeling
about di O on on one of six point seven
Detroit's wheels. I'm I'm still uh. I might still be drunk.
I don't know. I'm kidding sort of. I was up
(26:41):
late last night because I was watching that football game
that win until like well after midnight, seemingly an overtime
game that that ended in a tie. There should never
come a time where a football game ends in a tie.
That should never be the case. There's no reason why
you should have played seventy minutes of football and it
(27:03):
should end with neither team winning. Like, I know, they
talk about player safety and stuff like that, but like
these dudes are playing football, they already know the risks.
What's another five minutes of football? What's another ten minutes
of football? It's tied. No team wants to tie. And
by the way, Green Bay tried like hell to blow
the opportunity to tie it by throwing it in the
end zone, and somehow there was still one second left
(27:25):
on the clock. That was a miracle for them to
even have a chance to tie it. But that's a
that is a tie. By the way, green Bay might
actually not be as good as we thought. After they
beat the hell out of the Lions to start the season.
They started out two to zero and they were smoking.
Then they go out and lose to the same Browns
team that you just pummeled yesterday, and then last night
(27:48):
they tie the Cowboys. By the way, the Cowboys have
one of the worst defenses in the NFL, which was
apparent last night. They gave up forty points in like
three hundred and fifty passing yards to Jordan Love. But
the game should never end in a tie. There should
never come a situation where we dedicate seventy minutes of
game time, in like four hours of television watching time
(28:10):
for a game to not have a resolution. That should
never be the case. We should never find ourselves going, oh,
it's a tie, like hockey has ties, but someone still wins.
Like technically you get a point in hockey whatever, you
get a point for this. But in football, there should
never come a situation where it's like, I guess that's it.
No other sport does that. What if baseball games just
(28:31):
ended in ties, like, oh, well, we play the tenth
then and if nobody scores, it's a tie. Doesn't work
that way other than soccer. Soccer is the only sport
where you can tie a game. Shouldn't be. Football shouldn't be.
It's dumb, is all I'm saying. All Right, we got
to do sports. We'll do that here. Coming up in
just a few minutes, is there a chance that aj
(28:52):
Hinch could be leaving the Tigers? He has a suitor
allegedly maybe possibly a suitor. Will see what happens. We'll
talk about that in sports. It's coming up on wheels.
Speaker 6 (29:03):
It's a Josh Innis show on one of six point
seven WLLZ Detroit's Wheels.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
WLLZ God Smack on one of six point seven Detroit's Wheels.
I'm Josh, what's going on?
Speaker 5 (29:16):
So?
Speaker 1 (29:16):
I've been getting text messages from people about the super
Bowl halftime show. Josh, I agree with you. I've given
up on a rock or metal act for the super
Bowl halftime. Now, if you haven't heard Bad Bunny is
going to be the halftime show at the super Bowl
this year. There will never be another rock act unless
you count somebody like I don't know jelly Roll. Maybe
(29:37):
jelly Roll would be part of a halftime show if
you want to consider jelly Roll a rock act. But
what's fascinating to me is how the NFL hates the
idea of these old classic rock acts. They never used to.
They were totally fine with The Who, and with Arrowsmith
and with Bruce Springsteen, and they were totally fine with
all of these acts. Somewhere along the way they just
(29:58):
decided these acts were too and you couldn't put them
up on stage. They can't do it. Yet when you
go into an NFL stadium, what music do you hear
in the stadium? Like ninety nine point nine percent of
the music in a football stadium is rock heavy rock
ac DC. So ac DC is okay to play in
the stadium. And every time you hear Thunderstruck and TNT
(30:22):
and all of those songs from ac DC. Yet they're
not good enough to play halftime even though they were
just out touring. Now they may sound like crap. I
don't know, I didn't see them, so there could be
a reason that they're not playing. But my point is
they're fine to play all of that music in the
stadium because people get jacked up to that music in
the stadium. Yet they can't play Metallica. Like every other
(30:44):
damn song in a football game is either Guns n'
Roses or Metallica. Yet there's no Guns n' Roses for
halftime and there is no Metallica. Guns n' Roses is
one of the biggest rock bands ever. Guns n' Roses
right now if they toured would fill up football stadiums.
They played football stadiums a couple of years ago, so
gn R would do that. Metallica plays two or three
(31:05):
nights in a football stadium in a city. Hell green Day,
although Green Day probably can't be trusted, and we're being fair,
I don't think you'd trust Green Day on stage at
the super Bowl, would you? But Hell Nickelback somebody like that,
you know what I'm saying. Like I hate getting into
the discussion of who should play halftime who shouldn't, but
like the idea is that rock will never be seen
(31:26):
on the Super Bowl halftime show again. They would rather
put Spanish speaking music up in the Super Bowl halftime
show than put in Metallica or ac DC or any
of these other acts. And it's wild because when you
walk into these stadiums, that is all you hear. Last
time I checked, when I go to a football game,
when I go to the Lions game, I'm not hearing
(31:47):
thirteen Bad Bunny songs. You know what. I'm hearing Thunderstruck,
I'm hearing Welcome to the Jungle. I'm hearing tn T,
I'm hearing Nickelback. I'm hearing all of this stuff. So
it's fine to get people hyped up, and it's great
for your stadiums, but it's not good enough for your
halftime show. And that is say what if Journey played
the halftime show? Say that'd be something. I get that
(32:12):
they never will and I get that it's not even
real Journey. It's essentially a cover band now. But still
Journey could do it. You want to tell me that
people more people would know Journey than No Bad Bunny,
at least the American audience would look. I consider myself
someone that knows a good bit about music and Top
forty and pop music and all that Bad Bunny ain't
(32:32):
on top forty. I don't even know what the hell
the guy does. I know he wrestled once and won
a championship in wrestling back before they took the wrestling
and put it on ESPN. And I can't watch it anymore. Boy,
I've got issues today, don't I what's your issue today?
But you want to tell me that if they got
up there and did, if they did any way you
(32:53):
want it, and did, don't stop believing. You want to
tell me if Journey did, don't stop believing at the
super Bowl, it wouldn't kill. Of course it would kill.
You know what's not gonna kill. I'll tell you what
it's not gonna kill. Whatever this is again, no offense,
no offense. Your existence doesn't bother me. You're a gigantic
(33:14):
global icon. Totally, I get it. I don't know what
the hell this is. I feel like to play the
super Bowl halftime show, you have to have something that
people know why I'm hyping now the super Bowl halftime show.
(33:35):
They could have Metallica doing Inner Sandman. Can't get that, No, sir,
whatever this is. So there's that. All right, let's get
to sports, shall we. All right, So the Lions won
(33:57):
yesterday they are three and one. They won by twenty
four points. Dan Campbell, when talking to the team after
the game, said, hey, it was a nice win, but
we could have done better. It wasn't good enough.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
If I'm being totally honest with you, I'm just it
wasn't good enough. There's so many areas where we sought
ourselves in the foot and we cannot do that. Okay,
I'm just being honest. Now, it's not gonna ruin our
Sunday or the rest of the week.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
I can promise you that. Now, our Sunday was not
ruined because we got to watch a w three and one.
It was also nice to watch Green Bay tie, I guess.
But it's also interesting because you watch the way the
Lions dominated the Ravens, and then you watch the way
the Ravens just got slapped by a Chiefs team that
I don't think is very good, and you're like, who
(34:40):
the hell is good? Who is good in the NFL?
Right now, I'll tell you who is the damn Lions though?
All right, So you have got the guard Indians hosting
the Tigers tomorrow one O eight Scooble on the mound.
They're favored in that game. By the way, AJ Hinch says, Hey,
I know we've played Cleveland a lot, but it helps
(35:02):
to know these guys.
Speaker 3 (35:02):
You ever play somebody in your division, you're gonna have
seen them a ton, usually in September, at least the way.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
The old schedule used to be.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
So it'll get We'll get to Cleveland and we have
plenty of time to get ready for a team we know.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
Well, say, there you go. They played Themorrow, bright and early.
I really hate the way the baseball playoffs work out, though.
I hate it because you play one hundred and sixty
two games to get to the postseason and your season
could be over in like twenty eight hours. You guys
saw it last year. We saw it last year whenever
(35:34):
the Astros took on the Tigers and their season ended
like twenty eight hours. Didn't feel bad for them, but
still like it sucks that you play six and a
half months of baseball and then it could be over
in a day and a half. And it sucks that
you play six months of baseball to make the playoffs
and your home fans are not guaranteed a home playoff game.
(35:54):
That's bogus. Now, speaking of the Tigers, AJ Hinch. I
saw this story yesterday. Nowinch used to manage the Houston Astros.
You know this well. According to Bob Nightingale of USA Today,
he says that the Astros may be seeking a reunion
with aj Hinch in the event the Tigers don't finalize
(36:14):
a contract extension with Hinch. The Tigers plan to give
aj Hinch a contract extension. The deal was close to
being finalized a few weeks ago, but with the Tigers collapse,
the timing simply wasn't right. The deal should be consummated
after the postseason. That means they have sex on top
of a contract. But in the meantime, if the Astros
indeed are looking for a manager, they could touch base
(36:36):
for a possible reunion. That's could. There's no real concrete information.
This is a clickbaity type story. And we don't even
know if they're gonna fire the manager in Houston. His
name is Joe Aspata. We don't even know if he's
gonna get fired or not. And we don't even know
that the Astros are truly interested in aj Hinch. We
don't know if the Tigers are not going to give
him a contract extension. It looks like they are, so
(36:56):
you know, we're gonna just trumble this with us. This
is a garbage story and nothing to pay attention to.
But now you know, all right, it's the Josh Ennis Show,
Red Hot Chili Peppers under the Bridge, It's Josh how
are you so? Today? On this day, September twenty ninth,
(37:17):
nineteen ninety six, So what was that? Twenty nine years ago?
On this day, the Nintendo sixty four video game system
debuted in the US that, my friends, is the greatest
video gaming console of all time and the greatest video
game that has ever existed, at bar none. The greatest
(37:37):
video game that has ever been played by anyone is
a game called GoldenEye Double O seven. It is the
greatest video game ever and the Nintendo sixty four. When
I saw the Nintendo sixty four for the first time,
It's funny how this happens, because things evolve over time,
you know, and there's always something new in some new
technology that ends up being better than the previous one.
(37:58):
But when I saw Nintendo sixty four for the first time,
I thought, well, this is it. I guess it doesn't
get any better than this. This is the greatest gaming
console ever. Now mind you we're coming out of like Sega.
I used to love the Sega. I was a big
Saga guy, not a super Nintendo guy. When I was
a kid, I had a sega. So you play Sonic
and you play like Madden ninety four, NBA Live ninety six.
(38:20):
I really enjoyed the Sega, But when the Nintendo sixty
four came out, I said, no, this is it. It's
never gonna get any better. Then, of course, you know,
PlayStation is there, then PlayStation two. I will say, the
first time I played Madden on PlayStation two, I was
blown away, Like it was like voodoo. It's like I
was like Marty and I went into the future. And
of course now everything looks super realistic. And you'd look
(38:42):
back at these games from even twenty years ago and
you'd go, that's lame. But man, back in the day,
when you would play Nintendo sixty four and you would
play Goldeneyed Double O seven, or you would play NFL Blintz,
or you would play WCW versus nWo like the then
Tendo sixty four was just a special console. I think
(39:04):
everybody's connected to the console. They played like when they
were like ten years old. So that came out when
I was ten, So I started playing that ten eleven,
twelve years old, Like that was it. PlayStation never meant
all that much to me. PlayStation two never meant all
that much to me, because those are more when I
was in adult years, right, But as a kid, the
Nintendo sixty four was the ultimate gaming console. And it's
(39:26):
now twenty nine years old. It was released on this
day back in nineteen ninety six. What is the greatest
video game ever? What is the definitive video game? Now,
it could be something current. You might say Grand Theft
Auto or something like that, or some more current game.
But for me, in my youth, the one that sticks
in my mind, the one that I am just in
(39:46):
love with, the one that I think the most about
is Golden nine O seven. He got the James Bond
music DNA d DNA Da da dah, and then you
got like what happens when you run out of your weapons?
You have to like Judo chop. People like it's great.
It's just I'd love that game so damn much, But
I don't game as much as I used to. I
(40:06):
used to really be into it, and then like as
I got older, I like once everybody got like the
PlayStation five or whatever it is, I'm like, yeah, I
guess I'm I'm I'm not priced out. I just don't
feel like buying one. And then my then my PlayStation
three got hacked, like my PlayStation Sony account got hacked,
and then I couldn't even log in, and then I
gave up. I quit right before they re released the
(40:28):
college Football game. I have not played the New College
Football video game, and I hate it because that was
my favorite game really on PlayStation ever, was you know
NCAA football? Anyway, all right, we're gonna have some more
rock and roll coming up. If you think things are
bad for well, really things are really good right now
for our teams. But if you think you had it
bad at one point, I'll let you hear from the
(40:49):
quarterback of the Tennessee Titans. His name is cam Ward,
and he was very, very blunt with how bad his
team is. I'll have that for you coming up on
a wheel. Well six point seven, we are all right,
Detroit's wheels. That's twisted, sisters. So the quarterback, the number
one overall draft pick in this past year's draft was
cam Ward. You may not know that because no one
talked about him because they were obsessed with Dion's kid,
(41:11):
and he got all the press. Well, the number one
overall pick was cam Ward and he's had a miserable
start to his career. The Titans are the worst team
in the NFL. They are in nept offensively, they are
a tragedy. Okay now. He was asked about this in
the press conference after their most recent beatdown, which was
a shutout loss to the Texans, who previously were like
the worst scoring team in the NFL. They hung twenty
(41:34):
six on these guys, and he was pretty blunt about
how bad this team is.
Speaker 6 (41:40):
I mean, we're keeping a book right now. We ass so,
we owned four, we have this one. We got none
to lose. We dropped the court of our games, and
we've yet to do anything.
Speaker 1 (41:49):
I enjoyed the fact that he starts it with, listen,
if we're going to keep it buck.
Speaker 5 (41:53):
I mean, we're keeping a book right now.
Speaker 6 (41:54):
We ass so, we owned four, we have this one,
we got none to lose, we dropped the quart of
our games, and we've yet to do anything.
Speaker 1 (42:02):
Isn't it great that we're not in that era anymore?
We're not in the era where the starting quarterbacks starts
a press conference with listen, if we're keeping it buck here,
we're asked.
Speaker 5 (42:12):
I mean, we're keeping a book run, No we as.
Speaker 1 (42:14):
See it's good that we're not in that situation right now.
You know, we watch a football team that's three and
one that just beat the hell out of the Browns,
and if we're keeping it buck, the Browns.
Speaker 5 (42:22):
Are ass I mean we're keeping a book run, no
we as.
Speaker 1 (42:24):
I mean, there's a lot of teams that could probably
fit into that category. I mean, I mean, for being honest,
the Tigers of the month of September, I mean.
Speaker 5 (42:31):
We're keeping a book run, No we as.
Speaker 1 (42:33):
But see that doesn't matter though, because yes, September was terrible.
By the way, the September that was just seen by
the Tigers is the worst September ever for a team
that made the playoffs since the World Series began in
nineteen oh three. The Tigers were seven and seventeen in September.
That is the worst record in the final month of
(42:54):
a season by a playoff team since nineteen oh three.
Speaker 5 (42:58):
Maybe we keeping a book run, no we as.
Speaker 1 (43:00):
But see the beauty is you're in the dance. Yes,
the Tigers blew the division league. That sucks. That is
an all timer, okay, and it would seem even worse
had they not made the playoffs at all. The good
news is the Astros, if we're keeping it buck, they
were also ass in September. I mean, we're keeping a
book run no we as, And since we are keeping
it buck, the Astros sucked just a little bit more
(43:20):
than the Tigers did. And now the Tigers are in
the playoffs, and talk about how things work out. You
get one of the best pitchers in the game pitching
Game one in the best two out of three series.
That doesn't suck. R We keeping a book as maybe,
but maybe not. What happens if we take the two
game series and then boom? You never know. There have
been times that these things have happened, teams that just
(43:42):
suck going into the playoffs and somehow things work out.
Look at the team that beat the Tigers in the
two thousand and six World Series. That would be the
Saint Louis Cardinals. They collapsed in September and only won
eighty three games. Yet they got into the playoffs and
motored right through the playoffs and ended up winning the
World Series. I'm not saying that's what's gonna happen to
(44:03):
this team. Maybe if we're keeping it buck, maybe the
Tigers just are ass.
Speaker 5 (44:06):
I may we keeping a book right now, we ass.
Speaker 1 (44:08):
But maybe they're not. Maybe they're gonna find their groove.
Speaker 5 (44:11):
Who knows.
Speaker 1 (44:12):
But tomorrow you get school. You like your chances, right,
you like your chances to take Game one with Scooble
on the mound. So let's see, let's rock. Let us
not forget that, like a month or so ago, if
we're keeping it buck. The guard Indians were asked too.
Speaker 5 (44:27):
I mean, we're keeping a book right now, we.
Speaker 1 (44:28):
Ass, And wouldn't that just be so great? That they're
all hyped up. They're all talking trash, they're all giddy
about the fact that they're the hot team in baseball
right now, and in a matter of twenty eight hours
it could all be over. You are one good start
away from basically winning that series. So again, don't give
up hope on that one. I get it. So the
Kmart sub, and this is something I don't remember because
(44:49):
I never had the Kmart sub. When I think of
the eateries inside like a Walmart or a Kmart, I
think of the radio grill which used to be in
the wall, and then eventually you just started seeing McDonald's
or Subways or Burger Kings or whatever inside. But back
in the day, Walmart had the radio grill and it
was bad ass. But apparently Kmart. I just don't remember
(45:12):
the Kmart subs. But the Kmart sub has baloney, ham, salami,
American cheese, shredded lettuce, tomato, white onion and mustard, and
the bakery out in Garden City. They have a giant
Facebook following like thirty thousand people. So the owner teas
that they would bring back these Kmart style subs earlier
(45:34):
this week, and they had a line around the building
and they sold one thousand subs by eleven thirty am,
and they went for five ninety nine apiece. So people
were really feeling the nostalgia of these. See what I
think of bygone era fast food items that I miss.
There's a couple that really come to mind. I'd actually
(45:55):
like your feedback on this. If you want, I'd like
to hear from you, Text the word Josh and your
message to five nine seven zero. The og chicken tenders
from Burger King. The Burger King chicken tenders are elite.
The current stuff and like they're shaped like stars and
dinosaurs and all that. That's nothing. The old school chicken
(46:16):
tenders from Burger King eight piece fries. Dip it in
some barbecue elite. The other item that needs to make
a return is the chicken selects from McDonald's. Like they've
got tenders now, they've brought back some form of some
chicken tinder. It is not the chicken select. I can
(46:36):
taste the chicken select right now, and you would dip
it in the barbecue sauce because the barbecue McDonald's is great,
and you would dip the chicken selects in there, and
then you get like a large fry and a giant
coke and you would just wallow in your own obesity
and it was beautiful. Now, if you have any others
that you would like to throw out there, items that
are no longer on fast food menus that you miss,
(46:58):
the mixed salad shape. I know it sounds ridiculous to go, hey,
there was a salad at McDonald's and it was delicious.
Oh when you'd get that caesar salad in the cup
and then you would shake it up like you're making
a martini and you would just sit there and shake
this bad boy up. There was nothing healthy about the
mcsalad shaker. It was probably just poison.
Speaker 5 (47:19):
It was just it was.
Speaker 1 (47:20):
It was fat, just masquerading as a healthy option. But
damn was it delicious. So now I need you text
the word Josh and your message to five nine five
seven zero bygone era fast food items that you miss
and you wish would come back. Let's get that. And
now a man that's never going to play the half
Right, how about an ass whipping of the Cleveland Browns.
How about playoff baseball starting tomorrow. Hey, things don't suck,
and that's a positive. It's always good when things don't suck.
Other things that don't suck. Awesome turnout. Awesome job everybody
(00:22):
for bringing out bikes on Saturday afternoon, Saturday morning, Saturday
afternoon for the free Bikes for Kids event we did.
I don't have the total number yet, and I'm sure
Casey will give it to me at some point, but
just from our location, I feel like there were probably
three or four hundred bikes dropped off, unbelievable, and they
(00:42):
had other locations around town on Saturday. There's gonna be
a lot of bikes that were donated. So you guys
are wonderful. Thank you. Credit to you. Awesome job. Thanks
to everybody with free Bikes for kids, Bob and everybody
with free bikes for kids, all the volunteers, the band
whole shot was great as well. They're good dudes, so
a really awesome thing on Saturday. Thank you guys for
(01:05):
making that possible. Coming up in the seven o'clock hour,
I am going to let you know how you just
might win tickets to see Monday night football when Tampa
comes to town. That's gonna be a hot ticket. I
know that Tampa lost yesterday, but that's a good football
(01:25):
team and they're gonna come to town here in a
few weeks to take on our boys, and I'm gonna
have a chance for you to go. I'm gonna give
you all the details on that coming up a little
after seven o'clock, so be listening for that. We had
(01:47):
a lot to get into today. We'll have sports here
in just a few minutes. You'll hear from Dan Campbell,
you'll hear from aj Hinch. So I brought up the
free bikes for Kids event and I met a listener
named Joe. Joe's with eighty four lumber, and he handed
me a piece of paper. It says, can you remember
to play this song for me when we get rocked
(02:10):
and loaded at six o'clock. I was shocked that anybody
even knew that I did that. The guy goes, hey,
you play you know, you play a fun song every morning,
some sort of up tempo, energetic song, something to get
us going in the morning, and go wow, I didn't
know anyone listened. Thank you, Joe. Joe from eighty four
lumber says, hey, can you play seven Marry three Cumbersome
(02:33):
to kick things off on Monday? I said, Joe, since
you're quite literally the only person listening, I'll play a
whole damn day's worth of music for you. But it's
the least I can do to play seven Mary three.
Sports coming up in a few and cumbersome. Now we
are Detroit's Wheels, one of six forty seven Detroit's Wheels.
(02:54):
Josh and is show time for sports. Lion's got a yesterday,
they kind of it felt like they slept walk through
a lot of the game, and then when they needed
to turn it on at the end they did. There
was a stretch where I went to the station Facebook
page and I posted like, come on wake up. Of
course I got all these people angry, because people are dopes,
(03:15):
But I felt like they should have been dominating that game,
and they just kind of let the Browns hang around.
Third quarter. It was only a ten point game, but
then you got the big Khalif Raymond punt return touchdown
and they pulled away and won thirty four to ten.
And now the Lions are three and one. Now, Dan
Campbell talked with the team after the game in the
(03:37):
locker room and they said it was a nice win,
but look, it could have been a whole lot better.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
It wasn't good enough. If I'm being totally honest with you,
I'm just it wasn't good enough. There's so many areas
where we sought ourselves in the foot and we cannot
do that. Okay, I'm just being honest. Now, it's not
gonna ruin on Sunday for the rest of the week.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
I can promise you that three and one is the
Lions record right now. Now, a team that would have
killed have gone three and one over the last four
games as the Tigers, it might have won them the
division and might have gotten them home Baseball. Instead, the
Tigers finished the month of September seven and seventeen. Here's
a little stat from Bob Nightingale at USA today that
(04:18):
seven and seventeen record for the Tigers in September is
the worst record in the final month of a season
by a playoff team since the World Series began in
nineteen oh three. And after playing three games against Cleveland,
after playing an entire season's worth of games against Cleveland,
now it's the Tigers in Cleveland again in Cleveland, and
(04:43):
aj Hinch says it actually kind of helps to know
your enemy, and playing against Cleveland so many times gives
you kind of an advantage.
Speaker 3 (04:50):
You ever play somebody in your division, you're gonna have
seen them a ton, usually in September, at least the
way the old.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Schedule used to be.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
So it'll get we'll get to Cleveland, and we have
plenty of time to get ready for a team we
know well.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Well, Trek Scooble's gonna get the ball in Game one. Now,
there was some debate about whether or not the Tigers
should throw Scooble to try to win the division, but
I think that debate may have had more merit had
it been a win and you guarantee the division type
of thing, which obviously wasn't the case. They would have
had to have won the game Cleveland would have had
(05:22):
to have lost. Cleveland actually won their game in extra innings.
They were down eight to five going into the bottom
of the tenth and extra innings, hit a three run
walk off home run and ended up winning that game,
so it wouldn't have maddened either way. Cleveland wins the
division and the Tigers capped off their historic collapse again.
They had a fifteen and a half game lead at
one point in the division. But hey, you're in the dance,
(05:45):
and you got Schooble going in game one, and if
you can get a dominant Schooble performance, you just need
to win one of the next two games. All of
those games, the first two were at one oh eight,
and if it's necessary, game three also at one oh eight.
All those games will be played in Cleveland. Last night,
while you were sleeping, the Cowboys and Packers fought to
(06:11):
a forty to forty tie. How do we have NFL
games ending in ties? Baseball games don't end in ties.
College football games don't end in tie. Basketball games don't
end in ties. Hockey technically ends in a tie. It
doesn't end in a tie. But in the NFL you
play seventy minutes of football forty to forty and oh,
(06:33):
by the way, it's a tie. Very lame. I stayed
up until the well past my bedtime last night to
watch a tie. AnyWho, All right, coming up just after
seven o'clock, I'm gonna give you the details on how
you might be seeing our boys take on Tampa on
Monday Night football in a few weeks, all those details
(06:54):
coming up. Just after seven o'clock. We are locked, we
are loaded, We're ready to go. It's the Josh Ennis
Show and we are Detroit's Wheels.
Speaker 4 (07:02):
This is the Josh Ennis Show on one OHO six
point seven Dollz.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Well of six point seven Detroit's Wheels, Josh and a show.
I am Josh. Hello, what's going on now? Some of
you message me or I met some of you even
out at the free Bikes for Kids event over the weekend.
And when I talk with people, they say, Josh, I
enjoy the show. Are you ever going to add anything
to the show? Will there be new people on the show?
Will it become a full on show and not just you?
(07:31):
Nothing against you, Josh, but will it ever have other
people involved in the show? And the answer is yes.
In fact, from what I understand, we might have a
new piece added to the show next week, from what
I understand, and that will not be the last piece
that will be added to this show. We got a
couple of spots to fill and we're still in the
process of doing that. But I'd like to fill you
(07:53):
guys in on this, so you guys know other things
people ask, like, why do you talk about sports so much? Well,
because sports are awesome. Sports are big in Detroit, and
the teams are really good. Well, the Tigers were good.
Now maybe they can all change our minds and motor
through this series against the guard Indians and be back
in the home playoff game. World will feel really good.
Or maybe they lose in this wild card series to
(08:15):
the guard Indians and it just puts a cap on
what was a big poop sandwich over the last month
and a half or so of the season. But I mean,
how are you not going to talk about a red
hot football team that's rattled off three wins in a row,
all of which have been dominating by the way, Like
I understand the Ravens game was relatively close, but statistically
that game was dominated by the Lions. They mauled the
(08:36):
Bears before that, and then yesterday they easily disposed of
the Browns. So like, these are the things that people
in the city are talking about. So when people are
critical or people say I don't want to hear about sports,
well most people do because it's a damn good sports
town and people are passionate about sports. And this show
is a show about what is happening locally for the
(08:57):
most part. Now, there will be national stories obviously, like
every radio show, there will be big stories that happen
that aren't here. Of course that's the case. But when
it comes to what the core of this show is,
it is about Detroit. It is for Detroit, for people
from Detroit. Like, that is what this is. This is
not a radio show that's worried about programming for the
(09:19):
five other radio stations we're on. I'm here. This is
live and local, and we're doing a show for you.
So if the Lions are what we're talking about because
they've won three games in a row, we're talking about
the freaking lives. We're talking about how the Tigers have
Schooble going tomorrow, and all of the bad that's been
done over the last month and a half can essentially
be reversed with two good games over about twenty eight hours.
(09:43):
It can really wipe a lot of nasty taste out
of our mouth if Scooble can go out and pitch
really well and get a w on Tuesday, and then
they go on to win that series and then we
get home playoff Baseball. So like those are the things
that people are talking about. Those are the things that
people find interesting, and that's what we're gonna talk about here.
They're gonna be when there's nothing in sports and we're
talking about a thousand other things. Then there will be
(10:04):
Mondays after the freaking Lions, mall the Browns, and that
the Tigers are in the playoffs, then we're gonna talk
a lot about that. But I like to tell you
guys this every now and then, in case you're new
to the show, in case you're wondering, like, why does
this guy talk so much about this? That's what we're
gonna do here. If it's not for you, it's not,
I hope it is. I hope you dig it. I
hope you really dig it. But that's how we're gonna
(10:24):
do things. We're supposed to have a new person added
to the show next week, and then later on down
the line we're gonna add somebody else, so there will
be fresh voices, new voices on the show, and it's
gonna be a great show, and we're gonna continue our
quest to destroy everybody. That's the goal. We need you,
We love you, thank.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
You, you know and improved Illyard Radio.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
App listen for all your music radio and podcasts. Freeing

Should be a hell of a game too. Tampa lost yesterday,
(12:51):
but once they get healthy, once they get Mike Evans
back and they get rolling offensively, they are really good.
And I love watching Baker Mayfield play. He almost did
it again yesterday against the Eagles, who I hate watching
play because they are terrible offensively. Anyway, we'll get a
qualifier here in just a second. We'll do sports as well.

and you get fifty bucks to Kroger, just cause we'll
do it again tomorrow right around this time, about seven
h five is seven ten ish. Make sure you're listening
every day at that time. Now to the sports. So
(15:49):
the Lions got the win yesterday and they pretty much dominated.
They kind of screwed around a little bit and kept
it close, but the fourth quarter they dominated and they
won by twenty four. They held I say they held
the Browns to ten points. I mean, the Browns offense
is terrible. Joe Flacco is terrible. Their offense is terrible.
Even in the game they won, they scored like thirteen points.
(16:09):
They're not a good offense. But Dan Campbell, talking with
the team in the locker room after the game, said,
we've dominated defensively.
Speaker 5 (16:15):
All right.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
And here's what we said going into this game. We
needed our defense to show up and we needed special teams.
Speaker 5 (16:20):
Man.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
That was the beginning of it. And then we played
smart football. We work ourselves in all that good stuff. Man,
We did that, all right. We did that. Big listen
defense man. Three takeaways, two interceptions, one fumble, punch out
and recovery are allowed. Only seventy nine rushing yards, three sacks,
and there were three or fourteen on third down. That's
defense how you played defense.
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Track we did, in fact dominating. Then the offense took
over special teams of Khalif Raymond. Punt return for a
touchdown was also part of the equation that kind of
busted the game open. It was a little tens a
little too tight for our liking, but then Khalif Raymond
blew the whole thing open and that changed things baseball wise.
Game one tomorrow it is the guard Indians and the
(17:02):
Tigers live from Cleveland. One away to his first pitch.
In fact, one away will be first pitch in every game.
There will be at least two, there might be three.
And I feel good about our chances in Game one
because we've got Schooble going. In fact, the Tigers are
relatively heavy favorites in Game one because of Schooble. Now
it feels like they're doing nothing but playing Cleveland all
(17:24):
the time. And is aj Hinch worried about familiarity? Is
he concerned with how often these two teams play that
we know him well?
Speaker 3 (17:31):
I think the biggest, The biggest concern when you play
a division opponent, Boston's gonna have it with New York
is familiarity can be a blessing or a curse depending
on how you look at it, from being a little
bit too comfortable. So we're gonna have to turn over
every rock and make sure we're prepared and our guys
will be.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
Ready for what it's worth. The World Series odds are
out and the Tigers are a very long shot to
win the whole thing. They are plus fifteen hundred. There
are only two teams with worse odds. Means you bet
one hundred bucks, you'd win fifteen hundred bucks. Okay, the
only teams with worse odds are the Red Sox, who
are plus twenty two hundred and the Reds who are
(18:09):
plus thirty five hundred. The favorite that this can't be right. Actually,
I think that there's a typo in this thing I'm
looking at. There's no way the guard Indians are the
favorite to win the whole thing. So somebody type this
out wrong. But the Guardians are also a very low
chance of winning the whole thing. The Phillies are actually
the favorite to win the whole thing. They are plus
(18:30):
four to twenty five. There is no way Cleveland is
plus three hundred to win the World Series. So somebody
typed out the wrong info. And if they are plus
three hundred, that means that the Tigers should be like
plus four hundred. So again that's gambling parlance for those
of you who are uninitiated. The bigger that number goes,
the less likely is they've put a plus in front
of it. In a bigger number, that means you're a
(18:52):
heavy underdog and the Tigers are highly unlikely to win
the World Series. But hey, stranger things have happened. I mean,
who would have thought that they would have blown fifteen
and a half game lead, So you never know. Green
Day on one of six point seven Detroit's wheels. Hi,
I'm Josh. I was reading a story about this, this
guy that shot up the church, the LDS church, And
(19:14):
obviously that was the biggest story in the state yesterday.
It was all over the place, And I was reading
a story about this that said it was a targeted attack.
Like I think we knew that, Like, I think that's
pretty obvious, right, Like when you hear like a guy
drove into a church then opened fire, in the church
that he drove into, and then he set the church
(19:36):
on fire. I mean that seems like a targeted attack.
Like I could almost believe that guy accidentally drives into church,
you know, like oops, made a wrong turn, took the
curve too sharp, going too fast, and oh, I ended
up in a house. In fact, one night, I was
asleep in my townhouse when I lived in Houston, and
there was this loud noise that woke us all up.
(19:58):
A dude had driven into the house across the street
from us, Like we were living in a townhouse, and
this guy drove right through the living room, like took
the curve and just drove right through it. So if
you tell me, hey, a guy accidentally drove into a building,
I can go all right, that's believable. Once you get
a guy that drives into the church, then opens fire
(20:20):
on people in the church and then sets it on fire,
I don't know that there's any other option other than oh,
that was a targeted attack. So the terrible story and
more details of that are coming out throughout the day,
and the guy is dead. The cops plugged his ass,
which good on them. But yeah, just a crappy story,
all around. But anyway, we'll let you know if anything
(20:42):
new comes of that story. But I mean, it's pretty
obvious it was a targeted attack. I appreciate the insight,
but that was pretty clear. All right. So we've got
a super Bowl halftime show. It is Bad Bunny, Bad Bunny.
And when I heard that, I go, someone's setting us
up here. Someone just wants old white guys to be
pissed on Facebook. We'll get into that coven up. Did
(21:04):
Josh in his show six point seven w l.
Speaker 4 (21:08):
Z Detroit's Wheels, Well of six point seven Detroit's Wheels,
Josh in a show so bad Bunny is going to
be the halftime show of the super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
If you don't know Bad Bunny, let me give you
a little taste of what he offers. Here you go,
that is a sample here of Bad Bunny. You'll be
hearing him. Maybe you'll hear this during the super Bowl.
I don't know. I think at this point the NFL
(21:51):
is just screwing with us, right, So I know who
Bad Bunny is. I couldn't tell you much of his music, okay,
but I know who he is. In fact, I know
him or from his appearance on Wrestling he was in
like a storyline in the WWE. I know more about
that that I know about his actual music. Here's my issue, right,
and this is an issue with the NFL. First of all,
(22:12):
Bad Bunny is Puerto Rican. He's a gigantic Latin star.
He's a global star. It is not debatable that he
has a gigantic audience. He is huge. Okay, I'm not
debating that. But my issue is the super Bowl is
an American event. It is a giant American event. I
know that a bunch of people watch it in like
Mexico and probably Brazil and a bunch of other places,
(22:34):
but it is American football. It is the super Bowl, right.
I have an issue when the super Bowl has a
dude who's like the vast majority of his music is
in Spanish. I'm not against the idea of Spanish music,
nor am I against the idea of Bad Bunny in
general or anything like that. My issue is in your
quest to globalize your sport, you're basically telling your main consumer,
(22:58):
the American football consumer, to go after yourself. And you
do this on a regular basis. That is why you
have a game at nine thirty in the morning yesterday
in Dublin, Ireland. That's why the Chiefs open the season
in Brazil. You're on this quest to turn football into
this giant global sport. Look, I get it, there's more
money in it for you. There's a lot in it
(23:20):
for the NFL to expand. I get that. But what
they are doing now in their quest to expand, which,
by the way, the commissioner this weekend said their goal
is to play one game a week in a different country.
They're just throwing up double birds to everybody who's been
the consumer of this sport in America forever. So then
you've got a super Bowl halftime show, and the super
(23:41):
Bowl halftime show is a dude who's most of his
music is in Spanish, and he's a dude that, like,
I consider myself someone who knows about music stuff, right,
Like I know Top forty stuff, I know the pop hits,
I know all that kind of stuff. My wife's worked
in it before. I like a lot of it, so
I know it and I follow it. We're at a
point where you're going with a guy that like people
(24:03):
like my wife and people like me, people who work
in it are like, I don't know anything this guy does.
That's a problem. Now, maybe they're just getting everybody turning
them down, like allegedly Taylor Swift turned them down, which
she doesn't need the super Bowl. They need her more
than she needs them, So like, fine, Taylor Swipt didn't
want to do it, but are you just running out
(24:24):
of people?
Speaker 5 (24:25):
Like?
Speaker 1 (24:25):
I know, we just played ACDC. There is no way
in hell they'd ever have ac DC play the super Bowl,
but your American audience, and the options are ac DC
and Bad Bunny. Who do you think they're going with?
Or at Metallica and Bad Bunny. And the reason I
think this is the setup though, is I just think
they want to see old white dudes run to social
(24:45):
media and cry about this so then they can all
point at white dudes and be like, see, they're horrible people.
They're terrible.
Speaker 5 (24:52):
No.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
I have nothing against the concept of Bad Bunny or
any Hispanic singer Hell Shakira was up there a couple
of years ago, but Shakira had hit that I knew.
I knew Shakira songs, I knew some Kendrick Lamar stuff.
I would know Beyonce stuff, I knew Rihanna stuff, I
knew Lady Gaga stuff. These were giant artists with a
ton of hits. This is a dude who the vast
(25:14):
majority of his music is in Spanish. I don't know
any of it. And this is like the biggest American
sporting event on the planet. This is our biggest thing.
And it's like, ah, I forget it. We got the
dude from Puerto Rico who has like a thousand songs
in Spanish, Like, what are we doing here? And I'm
fully aware that he's a gigantic global superstar. I'm not
(25:36):
a moron. I get that, and I'm not someone that's
pounding my chest saying, my god, we've got to have
metallicaar ac DC. Why can't we do rock shows? They
will never do another rock show. Just heads up, there
will never be another classic rock super Bowl halftime show.
There's not gonna be a Springsteen, there's not gonna be Aerosmith.
They've all done it. Tom Petty's obviously dead, Prince is dead,
(25:59):
like the people that have done it have done it,
Paul McCartney, they will never bring them back again. And
usually I don't bitch about this stuff, but the super
Bowl halftime show has a dude that the majority of
his music isn't even in English. Who are you doing
the halftime show for at this point? If you want
to in eight seven seven nine eight eight one oh
(26:20):
six seven eight seven seven nine eight eight one oh
six seven, that is the number. If you want to call,
you want to text, text the word Josh and your
message to five nine five seven zero. How you feeling
about di O on on one of six point seven
Detroit's wheels. I'm I'm still uh. I might still be drunk.
I don't know. I'm kidding sort of. I was up
(26:41):
late last night because I was watching that football game
that win until like well after midnight, seemingly an overtime
game that that ended in a tie. There should never
come a time where a football game ends in a tie.
That should never be the case. There's no reason why
you should have played seventy minutes of football and it
(27:03):
should end with neither team winning. Like, I know, they
talk about player safety and stuff like that, but like
these dudes are playing football, they already know the risks.
What's another five minutes of football? What's another ten minutes
of football? It's tied. No team wants to tie. And
by the way, Green Bay tried like hell to blow
the opportunity to tie it by throwing it in the
end zone, and somehow there was still one second left
(27:25):
on the clock. That was a miracle for them to
even have a chance to tie it. But that's a
that is a tie. By the way, green Bay might
actually not be as good as we thought. After they
beat the hell out of the Lions to start the season.
They started out two to zero and they were smoking.
Then they go out and lose to the same Browns
team that you just pummeled yesterday, and then last night
(27:48):
they tie the Cowboys. By the way, the Cowboys have
one of the worst defenses in the NFL, which was
apparent last night. They gave up forty points in like
three hundred and fifty passing yards to Jordan Love. But
the game should never end in a tie. There should
never come a situation where we dedicate seventy minutes of
game time, in like four hours of television watching time
(28:10):
for a game to not have a resolution. That should
never be the case. We should never find ourselves going, oh,
it's a tie, like hockey has ties, but someone still wins.
Like technically you get a point in hockey whatever, you
get a point for this. But in football, there should
never come a situation where it's like, I guess that's it.
No other sport does that. What if baseball games just
(28:31):
ended in ties, like, oh, well, we play the tenth
then and if nobody scores, it's a tie. Doesn't work
that way other than soccer. Soccer is the only sport
where you can tie a game. Shouldn't be. Football shouldn't be.
It's dumb, is all I'm saying. All Right, we got
to do sports. We'll do that here. Coming up in
just a few minutes, is there a chance that aj
(28:52):
Hinch could be leaving the Tigers? He has a suitor
allegedly maybe possibly a suitor. Will see what happens. We'll
talk about that in sports. It's coming up on wheels.
Speaker 6 (29:03):
It's a Josh Innis show on one of six point
seven WLLZ Detroit's Wheels.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
WLLZ God Smack on one of six point seven Detroit's Wheels.
I'm Josh, what's going on?
Speaker 5 (29:16):
So?
Speaker 1 (29:16):
I've been getting text messages from people about the super
Bowl halftime show. Josh, I agree with you. I've given
up on a rock or metal act for the super
Bowl halftime. Now, if you haven't heard Bad Bunny is
going to be the halftime show at the super Bowl
this year. There will never be another rock act unless
you count somebody like I don't know jelly Roll. Maybe
(29:37):
jelly Roll would be part of a halftime show if
you want to consider jelly Roll a rock act. But
what's fascinating to me is how the NFL hates the
idea of these old classic rock acts. They never used to.
They were totally fine with The Who, and with Arrowsmith
and with Bruce Springsteen, and they were totally fine with
all of these acts. Somewhere along the way they just
(29:58):
decided these acts were too and you couldn't put them
up on stage. They can't do it. Yet when you
go into an NFL stadium, what music do you hear
in the stadium? Like ninety nine point nine percent of
the music in a football stadium is rock heavy rock
ac DC. So ac DC is okay to play in
the stadium. And every time you hear Thunderstruck and TNT
(30:22):
and all of those songs from ac DC. Yet they're
not good enough to play halftime even though they were
just out touring. Now they may sound like crap. I
don't know, I didn't see them, so there could be
a reason that they're not playing. But my point is
they're fine to play all of that music in the
stadium because people get jacked up to that music in
the stadium. Yet they can't play Metallica. Like every other
(30:44):
damn song in a football game is either Guns n'
Roses or Metallica. Yet there's no Guns n' Roses for
halftime and there is no Metallica. Guns n' Roses is
one of the biggest rock bands ever. Guns n' Roses
right now if they toured would fill up football stadiums.
They played football stadiums a couple of years ago, so
gn R would do that. Metallica plays two or three
(31:05):
nights in a football stadium in a city. Hell green Day,
although Green Day probably can't be trusted, and we're being fair,
I don't think you'd trust Green Day on stage at
the super Bowl, would you? But Hell Nickelback somebody like that,
you know what I'm saying. Like I hate getting into
the discussion of who should play halftime who shouldn't, but
like the idea is that rock will never be seen
(31:26):
on the Super Bowl halftime show again. They would rather
put Spanish speaking music up in the Super Bowl halftime
show than put in Metallica or ac DC or any
of these other acts. And it's wild because when you
walk into these stadiums, that is all you hear. Last
time I checked, when I go to a football game,
when I go to the Lions game, I'm not hearing
(31:47):
thirteen Bad Bunny songs. You know what. I'm hearing Thunderstruck,
I'm hearing Welcome to the Jungle. I'm hearing tn T,
I'm hearing Nickelback. I'm hearing all of this stuff. So
it's fine to get people hyped up, and it's great
for your stadiums, but it's not good enough for your
halftime show. And that is say what if Journey played
the halftime show? Say that'd be something. I get that
(32:12):
they never will and I get that it's not even
real Journey. It's essentially a cover band now. But still
Journey could do it. You want to tell me that
people more people would know Journey than No Bad Bunny,
at least the American audience would look. I consider myself
someone that knows a good bit about music and Top
forty and pop music and all that Bad Bunny ain't
(32:32):
on top forty. I don't even know what the hell
the guy does. I know he wrestled once and won
a championship in wrestling back before they took the wrestling
and put it on ESPN. And I can't watch it anymore. Boy,
I've got issues today, don't I what's your issue today?
But you want to tell me that if they got
up there and did, if they did any way you
(32:53):
want it, and did, don't stop believing. You want to
tell me if Journey did, don't stop believing at the
super Bowl, it wouldn't kill. Of course it would kill.
You know what's not gonna kill. I'll tell you what
it's not gonna kill. Whatever this is again, no offense,
no offense. Your existence doesn't bother me. You're a gigantic
(33:14):
global icon. Totally, I get it. I don't know what
the hell this is. I feel like to play the
super Bowl halftime show, you have to have something that
people know why I'm hyping now the super Bowl halftime show.
(33:35):
They could have Metallica doing Inner Sandman. Can't get that, No, sir,
whatever this is. So there's that. All right, let's get
to sports, shall we. All right, So the Lions won
(33:57):
yesterday they are three and one. They won by twenty
four points. Dan Campbell, when talking to the team after
the game, said, hey, it was a nice win, but
we could have done better. It wasn't good enough.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
If I'm being totally honest with you, I'm just it
wasn't good enough. There's so many areas where we sought
ourselves in the foot and we cannot do that. Okay,
I'm just being honest. Now, it's not gonna ruin our
Sunday or the rest of the week.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
I can promise you that. Now, our Sunday was not
ruined because we got to watch a w three and one.
It was also nice to watch Green Bay tie, I guess.
But it's also interesting because you watch the way the
Lions dominated the Ravens, and then you watch the way
the Ravens just got slapped by a Chiefs team that
I don't think is very good, and you're like, who
(34:40):
the hell is good? Who is good in the NFL?
Right now, I'll tell you who is the damn Lions though?
All right, So you have got the guard Indians hosting
the Tigers tomorrow one O eight Scooble on the mound.
They're favored in that game. By the way, AJ Hinch says, Hey,
I know we've played Cleveland a lot, but it helps
(35:02):
to know these guys.
Speaker 3 (35:02):
You ever play somebody in your division, you're gonna have
seen them a ton, usually in September, at least the way.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
The old schedule used to be.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
So it'll get We'll get to Cleveland and we have
plenty of time to get ready for a team we know.
Speaker 1 (35:13):
Well, say, there you go. They played Themorrow, bright and early.
I really hate the way the baseball playoffs work out, though.
I hate it because you play one hundred and sixty
two games to get to the postseason and your season
could be over in like twenty eight hours. You guys
saw it last year. We saw it last year whenever
(35:34):
the Astros took on the Tigers and their season ended
like twenty eight hours. Didn't feel bad for them, but
still like it sucks that you play six and a
half months of baseball and then it could be over
in a day and a half. And it sucks that
you play six months of baseball to make the playoffs
and your home fans are not guaranteed a home playoff game.
(35:54):
That's bogus. Now, speaking of the Tigers, AJ Hinch. I
saw this story yesterday. Nowinch used to manage the Houston Astros.
You know this well. According to Bob Nightingale of USA Today,
he says that the Astros may be seeking a reunion
with aj Hinch in the event the Tigers don't finalize
(36:14):
a contract extension with Hinch. The Tigers plan to give
aj Hinch a contract extension. The deal was close to
being finalized a few weeks ago, but with the Tigers collapse,
the timing simply wasn't right. The deal should be consummated
after the postseason. That means they have sex on top
of a contract. But in the meantime, if the Astros
indeed are looking for a manager, they could touch base
(36:36):
for a possible reunion. That's could. There's no real concrete information.
This is a clickbaity type story. And we don't even
know if they're gonna fire the manager in Houston. His
name is Joe Aspata. We don't even know if he's
gonna get fired or not. And we don't even know
that the Astros are truly interested in aj Hinch. We
don't know if the Tigers are not going to give
him a contract extension. It looks like they are, so
(36:56):
you know, we're gonna just trumble this with us. This
is a garbage story and nothing to pay attention to.
But now you know, all right, it's the Josh Ennis Show,
Red Hot Chili Peppers under the Bridge, It's Josh how
are you so? Today? On this day, September twenty ninth,
(37:17):
nineteen ninety six, So what was that? Twenty nine years ago?
On this day, the Nintendo sixty four video game system
debuted in the US that, my friends, is the greatest
video gaming console of all time and the greatest video
game that has ever existed, at bar none. The greatest
(37:37):
video game that has ever been played by anyone is
a game called GoldenEye Double O seven. It is the
greatest video game ever and the Nintendo sixty four. When
I saw the Nintendo sixty four for the first time,
It's funny how this happens, because things evolve over time,
you know, and there's always something new in some new
technology that ends up being better than the previous one.
(37:58):
But when I saw Nintendo sixty four for the first time,
I thought, well, this is it. I guess it doesn't
get any better than this. This is the greatest gaming
console ever. Now mind you we're coming out of like Sega.
I used to love the Sega. I was a big
Saga guy, not a super Nintendo guy. When I was
a kid, I had a sega. So you play Sonic
and you play like Madden ninety four, NBA Live ninety six.
(38:20):
I really enjoyed the Sega, But when the Nintendo sixty
four came out, I said, no, this is it. It's
never gonna get any better. Then, of course, you know,
PlayStation is there, then PlayStation two. I will say, the
first time I played Madden on PlayStation two, I was
blown away, Like it was like voodoo. It's like I
was like Marty and I went into the future. And
of course now everything looks super realistic. And you'd look
(38:42):
back at these games from even twenty years ago and
you'd go, that's lame. But man, back in the day,
when you would play Nintendo sixty four and you would
play Goldeneyed Double O seven, or you would play NFL Blintz,
or you would play WCW versus nWo like the then
Tendo sixty four was just a special console. I think
(39:04):
everybody's connected to the console. They played like when they
were like ten years old. So that came out when
I was ten, So I started playing that ten eleven,
twelve years old, Like that was it. PlayStation never meant
all that much to me. PlayStation two never meant all
that much to me, because those are more when I
was in adult years, right, But as a kid, the
Nintendo sixty four was the ultimate gaming console. And it's
(39:26):
now twenty nine years old. It was released on this
day back in nineteen ninety six. What is the greatest
video game ever? What is the definitive video game? Now,
it could be something current. You might say Grand Theft
Auto or something like that, or some more current game.
But for me, in my youth, the one that sticks
in my mind, the one that I am just in
(39:46):
love with, the one that I think the most about
is Golden nine O seven. He got the James Bond
music DNA d DNA Da da dah, and then you
got like what happens when you run out of your weapons?
You have to like Judo chop. People like it's great.
It's just I'd love that game so damn much, But
I don't game as much as I used to. I
(40:06):
used to really be into it, and then like as
I got older, I like once everybody got like the
PlayStation five or whatever it is, I'm like, yeah, I
guess I'm I'm I'm not priced out. I just don't
feel like buying one. And then my then my PlayStation
three got hacked, like my PlayStation Sony account got hacked,
and then I couldn't even log in, and then I
gave up. I quit right before they re released the
(40:28):
college Football game. I have not played the New College
Football video game, and I hate it because that was
my favorite game really on PlayStation ever, was you know
NCAA football? Anyway, all right, we're gonna have some more
rock and roll coming up. If you think things are
bad for well, really things are really good right now
for our teams. But if you think you had it
bad at one point, I'll let you hear from the
(40:49):
quarterback of the Tennessee Titans. His name is cam Ward,
and he was very, very blunt with how bad his
team is. I'll have that for you coming up on
a wheel. Well six point seven, we are all right,
Detroit's wheels. That's twisted, sisters. So the quarterback, the number
one overall draft pick in this past year's draft was
cam Ward. You may not know that because no one
talked about him because they were obsessed with Dion's kid,
(41:11):
and he got all the press. Well, the number one
overall pick was cam Ward and he's had a miserable
start to his career. The Titans are the worst team
in the NFL. They are in nept offensively, they are
a tragedy. Okay now. He was asked about this in
the press conference after their most recent beatdown, which was
a shutout loss to the Texans, who previously were like
the worst scoring team in the NFL. They hung twenty
(41:34):
six on these guys, and he was pretty blunt about
how bad this team is.
Speaker 6 (41:40):
I mean, we're keeping a book right now. We ass so,
we owned four, we have this one. We got none
to lose. We dropped the court of our games, and
we've yet to do anything.
Speaker 1 (41:49):
I enjoyed the fact that he starts it with, listen,
if we're going to keep it buck.
Speaker 5 (41:53):
I mean, we're keeping a book right now.
Speaker 6 (41:54):
We ass so, we owned four, we have this one,
we got none to lose, we dropped the quart of
our games, and we've yet to do anything.
Speaker 1 (42:02):
Isn't it great that we're not in that era anymore?
We're not in the era where the starting quarterbacks starts
a press conference with listen, if we're keeping it buck here,
we're asked.
Speaker 5 (42:12):
I mean, we're keeping a book run, No we as.
Speaker 1 (42:14):
See it's good that we're not in that situation right now.
You know, we watch a football team that's three and
one that just beat the hell out of the Browns,
and if we're keeping it buck, the Browns.
Speaker 5 (42:22):
Are ass I mean we're keeping a book run, no
we as.
Speaker 1 (42:24):
I mean, there's a lot of teams that could probably
fit into that category. I mean, I mean, for being honest,
the Tigers of the month of September, I mean.
Speaker 5 (42:31):
We're keeping a book run, No we as.
Speaker 1 (42:33):
But see that doesn't matter though, because yes, September was terrible.
By the way, the September that was just seen by
the Tigers is the worst September ever for a team
that made the playoffs since the World Series began in
nineteen oh three. The Tigers were seven and seventeen in September.
That is the worst record in the final month of
(42:54):
a season by a playoff team since nineteen oh three.
Speaker 5 (42:58):
Maybe we keeping a book run, no we as.
Speaker 1 (43:00):
But see the beauty is you're in the dance. Yes,
the Tigers blew the division league. That sucks. That is
an all timer, okay, and it would seem even worse
had they not made the playoffs at all. The good
news is the Astros, if we're keeping it buck, they
were also ass in September. I mean, we're keeping a
book run no we as, And since we are keeping
it buck, the Astros sucked just a little bit more
(43:20):
than the Tigers did. And now the Tigers are in
the playoffs, and talk about how things work out. You
get one of the best pitchers in the game pitching
Game one in the best two out of three series.
That doesn't suck. R We keeping a book as maybe,
but maybe not. What happens if we take the two
game series and then boom? You never know. There have
been times that these things have happened, teams that just
(43:42):
suck going into the playoffs and somehow things work out.
Look at the team that beat the Tigers in the
two thousand and six World Series. That would be the
Saint Louis Cardinals. They collapsed in September and only won
eighty three games. Yet they got into the playoffs and
motored right through the playoffs and ended up winning the
World Series. I'm not saying that's what's gonna happen to
(44:03):
this team. Maybe if we're keeping it buck, maybe the
Tigers just are ass.
Speaker 5 (44:06):
I may we keeping a book right now, we ass.
Speaker 1 (44:08):
But maybe they're not. Maybe they're gonna find their groove.
Speaker 5 (44:11):
Who knows.
Speaker 1 (44:12):
But tomorrow you get school. You like your chances, right,
you like your chances to take Game one with Scooble
on the mound. So let's see, let's rock. Let us
not forget that, like a month or so ago, if
we're keeping it buck. The guard Indians were asked too.
Speaker 5 (44:27):
I mean, we're keeping a book right now, we.
Speaker 1 (44:28):
Ass, And wouldn't that just be so great? That they're
all hyped up. They're all talking trash, they're all giddy
about the fact that they're the hot team in baseball
right now, and in a matter of twenty eight hours
it could all be over. You are one good start
away from basically winning that series. So again, don't give
up hope on that one. I get it. So the
Kmart sub, and this is something I don't remember because
(44:49):
I never had the Kmart sub. When I think of
the eateries inside like a Walmart or a Kmart, I
think of the radio grill which used to be in
the wall, and then eventually you just started seeing McDonald's
or Subways or Burger Kings or whatever inside. But back
in the day, Walmart had the radio grill and it
was bad ass. But apparently Kmart. I just don't remember
(45:12):
the Kmart subs. But the Kmart sub has baloney, ham, salami,
American cheese, shredded lettuce, tomato, white onion and mustard, and
the bakery out in Garden City. They have a giant
Facebook following like thirty thousand people. So the owner teas
that they would bring back these Kmart style subs earlier
(45:34):
this week, and they had a line around the building
and they sold one thousand subs by eleven thirty am,
and they went for five ninety nine apiece. So people
were really feeling the nostalgia of these. See what I
think of bygone era fast food items that I miss.
There's a couple that really come to mind. I'd actually
(45:55):
like your feedback on this. If you want, I'd like
to hear from you, Text the word Josh and your
message to five nine seven zero. The og chicken tenders
from Burger King. The Burger King chicken tenders are elite.
The current stuff and like they're shaped like stars and
dinosaurs and all that. That's nothing. The old school chicken
(46:16):
tenders from Burger King eight piece fries. Dip it in
some barbecue elite. The other item that needs to make
a return is the chicken selects from McDonald's. Like they've
got tenders now, they've brought back some form of some
chicken tinder. It is not the chicken select. I can
(46:36):
taste the chicken select right now, and you would dip
it in the barbecue sauce because the barbecue McDonald's is great,
and you would dip the chicken selects in there, and
then you get like a large fry and a giant
coke and you would just wallow in your own obesity
and it was beautiful. Now, if you have any others
that you would like to throw out there, items that
are no longer on fast food menus that you miss,
(46:58):
the mixed salad shape. I know it sounds ridiculous to go, hey,
there was a salad at McDonald's and it was delicious.
Oh when you'd get that caesar salad in the cup
and then you would shake it up like you're making
a martini and you would just sit there and shake
this bad boy up. There was nothing healthy about the
mcsalad shaker. It was probably just poison.
Speaker 5 (47:19):
It was just it was.
Speaker 1 (47:20):
It was fat, just masquerading as a healthy option. But
damn was it delicious. So now I need you text
the word Josh and your message to five nine five
seven zero bygone era fast food items that you miss
and you wish would come back. Let's get that. And
now a man that's never going to play the half
