Detroit sports podcasters Greg Eno, Big Al Beaton and Nick Milanovich are The Knee Jerks!
We're back from our summer vacation with special guest. Making his annual appearance is Detroit Red Wings radio play-by-play man Ken Kal. Ken joins us to discuss the Red Wings' off season, the current roster, preview the coming year and give us insight into the life as a professional broadcaster. It's always a fun and informative discussion when Ken joins the show!
The second half of the show is all Detroit Lions and Detroit Tigers talk. Topics include:
The Lions are a damn good team. But it's hard for the fanbase to shake off decades of ineptitude.
The Lions are national media darlings. We truly are in uncharted territory.
The Lions didn't play at their best, but still beat a legitimate playoff quality team in the Rams.
This was the sort of game previous generations of Lions teams would have lost, then played the moral victory card.
Aidan Hutchinson was a defensive force of nature.
Was this game the coming out party for Jameson Williams?
The Lions winning the game in OT, imposing their will on the Rams' defense with pure smashmouth football, was a thing of beauty.
Were we too quick in writing off the Tigers? Despite seemingly waving the white flag by selling at the trade deadline and playing all the kids, the Tigers started winning.
The Tigers put themselves in the wild card hunt by playing .600 ball over the past several weeks. They are 3.5 GB of the Twins, but with just 18 games left, making the postseason remains a long shot.
Somehow the Tigers are winning games despite their rotation being Tarik Skubal and Keider Montero, then 3 games of an opener/bulk-relief pitching.
Skubal has become the overwhelming AL Cy Young favorite, leading the AL in pitching Triple Crown stats - Wins (16), ERA (2.53), strikeouts (208).
We also play Greg's Birthday Game and name our respective Jerk of the Week.
