graph of Okamists.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Big summer here, Matt.
Speaker 3 (00:05):
That's right, Jack.
Speaker 4 (00:05):

Graft Nissan and Graft Chevy of Okamists, great deals. We're
offering zero percent financing and select vehicles up to sixty months.
If you're a Casto member. We got extra rebates for that.
We're getting fresh inventory every day. It's been a great summer.
We got great deals for you.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Zero percent.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
Can't get much lower than that.
Speaker 5 (00:26):
That's exactly right.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Topacy mat in the gang here on West Grand River, Okamiz.
Speaker 6 (00:30):
They're making friends.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
It's back.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
It is the Drive with Jack Spotlight Radio Network.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Jack Kablin here with my producer Boston rob Or reminder,
Tigers hosting the Kansas City Royals tonight, the first in
a three game set. Tigers nine and a half up
over the second place Royals in the American League Central Division.
All right, one week from tonight. We've said this a
couple times during the show. We're going to repeat it
(01:08):
in Michigan State opening the twenty twenty five football seasons
against the Western Michigan Broncos at Spartan Stadium. I want
to welcome in a guy who doesn't miss many Michigan
State games and sees a lot of other games too,
and that is Spartan. Mike Sterner, Doctor Sterner, How you doing, Doc?
Speaker 7 (01:29):
Good? Thanks for having me on, Jack, I'm doing well.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Are you at McLaren?
Speaker 7 (01:36):
Now?
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Where are you as we speak?
Speaker 3 (01:39):
I just got out of McLaren.
Speaker 7 (01:40):
I'm no longer there, but I was there all day
today otherwise, and it was a busy day.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Okay, you say you just got out of McLaren, You
mean you left the hospital.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
You haven't stopped working there.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
No, I haven't stopped working there.
Speaker 7 (01:55):
No, I'm under contract for a couple more years at least.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
I got you. I got you. Okay.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Well, you're also under an emotional contract with Michigan State
and the Detroit Lions and a lot of other teams
that you follow around the country. What do you make
of this Spartan team.
Speaker 7 (02:16):
I think that the thing I keep seeing is like
familiarity and depth. I mean, with Jonathan Smith and his
staff being here for another year, I see the depth
that they've added through the portal. But just a lot
of young guys that are coming back to the program
this year, and they know the system and people are familiar.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
You know, as you go from Aiden Child's.
Speaker 7 (02:38):
Down, everybody's really getting used to us lancing. They're matured,
they're growing, and I expect them to have a better
year this year, and I'm pretty confident that they will.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Is there a position or position group that you feel
particularly confident in things can match up with the best
in the Big Ten? And there's are one that really
concerns you.
Speaker 7 (03:01):
I would say that wide receiver. I don't think it
can just match up with anyone in the Big Ten.
I think you can match up with anybody in the country.
You have Nick Marsho's one of the best young receivers
in the country, and then you had one like Omari
Kelly and Krashan McCrae, and I think, you know, you
have a really good group there. I think the group
that I'm probably most worried about is probably the offensive
(03:25):
line because those skilled players and the quarterback and the
running game all rely on that. And you know, we've
had some pretty inconsistent offensive line play really over the
last decade, so we need to get that figured out.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Yeah, I would agree with you about the wide out.
So I think Michigan State has six six wide receivers
who could have played for them in most years and
many of their most successful years. And I would have
agreed with you heading into the preseason camp about the
offensive line.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I think my doubts there have been.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Smoothed over to some degree because of the depth, the
number of players, some experience that's been added, not going
to be subject injuries quite the way they were a
year ago. But I'm really concerned about the place kicking
on this team. And I could see that making a
difference of two wins.
Speaker 7 (04:26):
Yeah, we saw it make a difference in in the
Indiana game where we could have made a bowl game
a few years back, and so you know, we didn't
really have a kicker, and then Gonath and Kim came
and blessed us the next year and he's no longer
here here.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Yeah, they're gonna miss Jonathan Kim. I think even though
he had the one kick against Michigan on the first drive,
the twenty five yard or he missed, but he didn't
miss many others. He made a lot of long onesime.
I guess I don't know what his combined distance was.
I should add it up against Iowa, but I think
it was a big ten record for the most yards
(05:07):
on field goals in one game.
Speaker 7 (05:09):
Well, he had the big ten record on an individual kick.
I was at the same so I remember that.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
Yeah, they Kinnick Stadium record.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
I'm sorry, yeah, Kinnick Stadium. Yeah, yeah, you know.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
I saw a couple of transoceanic kicks for a Michigan
State mic one with Morton Anderson, and you know, at
sixty was no big deal to him. He would try
to make field goals on kickoffs. And then I saw
(05:43):
a game against Purdue. This was Georgia's first year nineteen
eighty three, and Spartans had to try a fifty nine
yard field goal to tie, and Ralph Mosienko drilled that
and it was twenty nine to twenty nine at the
end of the game, so no overtime, that was just it.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
They both both walked away frustrated.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Do you think the big difference is going to be
for Jonathan Smith in year two.
Speaker 7 (06:13):
I think he's honestly understands Michigan State now. I think
he understands the culture here. I think that was probably
one of my big concerns when he came here, has
come here from the West Coast team, and you know,
does he really understand the rivalry between Michigan, does he
understand the region? And I think he's hired some guys
like Joe Rossi and other guy like Courtney Hawkins, guys
(06:35):
on the staff that do understand Big Ten culture, Michigan
State culture, and I think he's fully adapted and now
he's bought in, and I think he's really reflected on
things he would have did differently in.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
His first year. I mean it's his first year.
Speaker 7 (06:48):
I think everybody, I just finished my first year at
McLaren Lanton and there's things I would have did differently there.
So I understand that notion. And I think he's learned
and growed and I think he's been a successful coach.
And I think his players really buy in, so I
think adding that and then he's really embracing the transfer
(07:08):
portal Nil culture that we have along with our new
ad and I think you know that those two as
a team are going to become a stronger group for
our football program.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Mike You and doctor Tom Jamison, longtime area family physician
and athletic physician, probably talk to more Michigan State fans
than any docs. I know, what do you think the
fan expectations are this year and what would be satisfactory
in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 7 (07:44):
I think the floor expectation is we have to make
a Bowl game this year, no questions ask, And I
think you know, the ceiling kind of expectation is looking
at eight or nine wins.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Rico Beer, you probably are familiar with on our television show,
has twice said that not only does Jonathan Smith have
to win eight games this year, but he and his
staff also have to beat Michigan. That seems like a
pretty heavy expectation, a big lift for a second year's staff.
(08:22):
Do you think there's one game that is going to
be a litmus test or do you think that if
Michigan State can get an upset or two along the way,
it won't come down to a one game season.
Speaker 7 (08:35):
I don't think you can put anything on one game.
As much as I'd love to win the Michigan game,
you know, I think winning eight games in total over
winning five and winning the Michigan games matters more. But
I think that, you know, having a school like Boston College,
a power conference school, come into Michigan State and Week two,
(08:57):
and you know, I felt like that was a really
big turning point for the season last year. And if
we would have won that game, who has been to
a Bowl game and a bunch of other things, we
might have even gotten another win with confidence and such.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
So I think that one.
Speaker 7 (09:12):
You know, it's not the first one you think of,
but I think because it's so early and it's at home,
you got to get it done.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
You've heard all of the height.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
About Bryce Underwood and the question about does he win
one Heisman or two, and all of the talk about
the money that he got to play in an arbor
after first committing to LSU.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Takes a lot to buy a player away from LSU.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
But when you think about how good Underwood can be,
and if you saw him in high school, you know
that he's more than just flip service. Would you rather
have Aiden Hiles or Bryce Underwood this year?
Speaker 7 (09:52):
I think I'd rather have Aiden Giles just because I
think he's kind of been through the lumps, and he's
also you know, he doesn't like and talent himself, but
he had to go through that maturity year behind you know,
a beat up offensive line, and he had to learn
a lot about himself, and you know, maybe Bryce under
would will have to go through some of that himself
this year, maybe to the to the enjoyment of the
(10:15):
Spartans when Michigan comes here. But I think I'd rather
have the seasoned, more veteran type guy.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
All Right.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
I know your habit of showing up at games and
unusual places, not just games here in East Lansing or
in Detroit. I don't know exactly how you do that
with your work shifts, but you managed to do it.
Do you know which road games Michigan State plays?
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Five of them? Where will you be?
Speaker 7 (10:45):
I'll one hundred percent be back in LA where I
was a month ago for that game. I'm ninety nine
percent sure I'm going to go to Indiana. I'm thinking
about Minnesota, and then one of the Nebraska, Iowa, so
almost all of them.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Okay, Okay, Well, I will see you or pass you
at some form in LA.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
And I'm going with Jay Green and.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
Someone else going to Bloomington and flying to Minnesota. So
if it turns out you're at those three places, maybe
we can grab a meal or something there.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
What about the Lions.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
I know you've been to Green Bay show up other
places for important games for Detroit. Looking at the schedule,
are you going to see any Lions road games?
Speaker 7 (11:34):
I am going to every Lions road game, and I
have flights book for every Lions road game except to
One of my goals is to see the Lions win
in every NFL stadium, not just a tend a game there,
but see them win. I've already been to Kansas City.
I watched them win that game a couple of years
ago on Sunday night or on the opening day game.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
And then Baltimore is the weekend.
Speaker 7 (11:56):
Of the USC game, so it's a Monday night game.
But I don't know if I want to be that
crazy that Hey.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Rob, When you hear Spartan Mike talk about being at
all of these road games and getting to every game,
I mean there will be players on the team who
won't be at every game. Some of them will be
home getting treatment for injuries. Can you imagine having that
kind of dedication and having games be that much a
(12:26):
part of your life.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
That's great to hear. I want to frequent fire miles,
That's what I want.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
I just want to make sure that he's as good
in the operating room or that he is when he's
dealing with patients as he is getting to these games.
Speaker 7 (12:44):
Well, I will say Jack, I don't go with the
operating room. Thankfully, I'm not assurgent, but I think my
patient care is okay at least okay.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
All right, So when you're talking to patients and let's
say you have one come in and they have a
big Michigan tattoo, or they are resplendent from head to
toe in scarlet and gray, do you close your eyes
a little bit? Or do you do you suggest to
(13:15):
them that they'd feel better if they change their garb
or their logo.
Speaker 7 (13:20):
You know, if they are a new patient, you really
got to read the room. You can't abset people too much,
but if you think they can take it, you throw
some jabs at them, but all in good fun.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
And if I know them long enough, I will definitely
throw some jabs at them.
Speaker 7 (13:34):
And sometimes they know me even when they're in Michigan
panc before they even come see me.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
So you're living in mid Michigan now, right, You were
not when you were going through your residency and.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
All these things.
Speaker 7 (13:49):
Correct. I am in East Lancing now. Previously I had
done my training at MacLaren, McComb and Mount Clemons. And
I was living in Hazel Park where I grew up.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
So how long did it take you to get from
Hazel Park up here for the coaches shows? You're such
a fixture over at One North, used to be over
at Reno's every show. A lot easier for you right now.
You're saving a lot of gas mileage for that.
Speaker 7 (14:20):
Yeah, I'm one hundred percent taking a lot of gas mileage.
It would take, depending on you know what, the traffic
that we have in the construction, sometimes two hours, so
I'd get in right when the show started. Sometimes and
you know, I'm leaving from the east Side as they
call it in McCombe, where I was doing my training,
so I'd get right in the car.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
I'd have a change of clothes, a change that go.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
You know what I'm thinking here, Rob, Let me ask
you first, who do you think as more devotion? I mean,
we're talking about the extreme of the extreme super fans
right spartan mic with Michigan State and what you just
heard about being at every Lion's game home and away
(15:08):
or the fabulous flying nesses.
Speaker 5 (15:11):
You just got to combine, just combine them all, Yes,
just have them all, just have them gold all together.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
I mean, these guys perfect look.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Like a casual fan and that's so so you know
what I think we ought to do. Rob, hold me
to this so I don't forget. Okay, I think at
some point after the basketball season we ought to have
a special event and I can probably pick out five
of the ten. But since we're talking about the Big
(15:44):
ten all year, let's have a deal with the ten
greatest super fans and bring them over to One North
and we'll have a hell of a party.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
What do you think.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
It sounds like fun? Jack?
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Yeah, there's still some openings on this list, folks, So
if you think you belong and I know some people
be clubbing each other to get spots eight, nine and
ten on this list, but I think we ought to
do that, and we'll mention again throughout the year. But
you have to let us know why you belong here.
(16:19):
I mean not just a fan, not just a devoted
fan or a diehard fan or a super fan. I'm
talking about almost an insane level of passion and loyalty
to follow the team, and frankly, frankly, a lot of
people can't do it. But Mike, you were doing this
before you were making doctor dough right, Yeah, yeah, Jack.
Speaker 7 (16:42):
You know I always told people, you know, I'm not
I'm not in the gambling, I'm not really into drinking.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
I'm not into any of that stuff.
Speaker 7 (16:49):
So I saved a lot of money with that, and
then I prioritize it because a lot of my colleagues
in medicine asked me, how are you able to do this?
Speaker 3 (16:57):
And I mean, one thing, I don't have kids or
anything like that. I do I have a fiance.
Speaker 7 (17:00):
But uh, on top of that, you know, I prioritized it.
I got vice in medical school that if you want
to do stuff, you got to do it. Prioritize it
now because if you keep saying you're not going to
do it now, you're never going to do it.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
So I took that to heart and I've always prioritized it.
Speaker 7 (17:17):
I always tell people there's twenty four hours in every day,
and if you're you really want to do something, you
can figure it out.
Speaker 5 (17:23):
I'll your this is your addiction, right like, this is
your addiction?
Speaker 7 (17:27):
Yes, that is That is a very fair way to
put it.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Is there any kind of treatment or therapy for this?
Speaker 1 (17:37):
If you knew someone else who had the same situation,
anything you would prescribe, Mike.
Speaker 7 (17:44):
Honestly, I don't know any ill side effects of it,
other than like you don't truly have the money for it.
So I don't think I need to prescribe. I honestly,
I actually try to prescribe this lifestyle the more people.
Speaker 5 (17:58):
Yeah, work hard, play right now, gotcha? Okay, yes, work hard,
you're playing hard.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
You mentioned your fiance. You might as well give her
a plug. You may need it at some point. What's
her name?
Speaker 7 (18:10):
Her name is Angelie, but I call her Jelly. She's
She's actually from Nepal and she she came here on
what they called the Green Card lottery. It's underrepresented countries
in the US. They try to get more people from
there so that people literally put their name in the
(18:31):
hat for a lottery, and she won it.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
And it's really funny because.
Speaker 7 (18:35):
She plays scratch card lottery all the time and she
wins probably every time.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
She does it.
Speaker 7 (18:40):
So I always joked her life spent a lottery, But
I'm really proud of her to go through that process.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
How long has she been in the country.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Going on, I want to say eight years.
Speaker 7 (18:52):
I've known her for a solid six years, and she
got her citizenship five years into that time. So she's
a full US citizen.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
And now I was going to say, so you don't
have to worry about coming back from a road trip
and finding her gone.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
She's an American citizen.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
No, No, she's good.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
What does she say about this? Have you converted her?
Does she just think?
Speaker 2 (19:15):
Okay, well, that's the one thing weird about my guy.
Speaker 7 (19:19):
So I always tell people I could never date somebody
who is as big of a fan as me, because
it would be like dating myself and I'd get sick
of it. Yeah, and so she doesn't care about sports
at all, but she has definitely started to come around,
and she's come to me with some games. She definitely
(19:39):
thinks I'm insane. She laughs at me and calls me crazy,
but yeah, she loves me.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
That's so cool.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
I say that as someone who is celebrating the wedding
anniversary number fifty tomorrow.
Speaker 7 (19:53):
So congratulating Jack, thank you, thank you.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
If you and Jelly get to fifty.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Boston rob show up, I won't be around, but I
hope that hope that you have that kind of longevity.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
One more thing, Mike, I may have asked you this before.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
But you are very well known for that outsized hat
that you have with you often, that Spartan hat. And
I've seen that put on doctor Johnson. You know, he's
in his nineties. He looked great in it. Is there
one person you would most like to see wearing that hat?
Speaker 7 (20:32):
Honestly, I think I need to and you suggested this,
but I do think I need to put it on Tom.
I don't know how he would react to it. I
know he thinks I already. He knows who I am,
and he thinks I'm insane. But I don't know how
he would react.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
I think you got to pick the right moment for.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Well. I'll tell you what. I can make this happen
for you.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
If you can get Michigan State to win a national championship,
I can get that hat on his head.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
I'll try my best.
Speaker 7 (21:02):
Jack.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
I thought maybe Rob that sparty Mike would say, I've
got to see this on Desmond Howard's head.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Or Edwards or Edwards?
Speaker 5 (21:16):
How about that?
Speaker 7 (21:17):
You know what, Jack, I truly would not want that
because I feel like.
Speaker 4 (21:20):
My hat it'd be tainted forever.
Speaker 5 (21:23):
Mike, you don't want it. I got to ask you
do you do you show the hat to some of
your patients?
Speaker 8 (21:30):
Right?
Speaker 5 (21:31):
Do you tell them the story?
Speaker 7 (21:33):
You know what? So I part of why I have
a big following is I have like a Facebook page
that my friend started and there's a big following on it.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
He did a lot of the lag report.
Speaker 7 (21:43):
But I have patients that come into the clinic and
they'll see my because I teach residents, and so a
lot of times I'll go in the room after the
residents are done seeing the patient and wrap up the visit,
and a lot there's been times where.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
They they know who I am, they say are you?
Speaker 7 (21:59):
Are you Mike? So it's especially now living in this
East Lanting Lancing area. It's a lot more common than
it was down in the Detroit area. But it happens
probably twice a week. I'm not even kidding.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
That's cool.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
So you are pretty new to the medical profession. It's
not like you have a ton of money set aside yet.
But yeah, in terms of what this costs you in
a year, do you have an estimate.
Speaker 7 (22:32):
It? Honestly, I don't know. I would say probably in
the twenty to thirty thousand dollars range. I'm really pretty
I think I'm you know, I come from a you know,
my father is kind of a frugal man, and so
I've learned some kind of frugal Like I don't need
the fanciest hotel and I don't need the I find
out all the deals, like I use McLaren's company company
(22:55):
corporate deal for the rental cars and all that kind
of cool stuff.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
So it's a lot to do it.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
You know, you do it on not on the cheap,
but you know how to save money doing it.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Yes, great, that's great.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
So when you get a nice nest egg, are you
the kind of person who would be donating to name,
image and likeness? Would you be donating to facilities? Would
you be donating to personal upgrades for your hotel rooms?
Speaker 2 (23:25):
What would you do?
Speaker 7 (23:28):
You know, I really do like to kind of give
to the players directly, and you know, so I don't
know if it's truly nil, but I'm really big and
like doing if they do any kind of an autograph session,
especially now that they.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Can truly get paid for it, I will.
Speaker 7 (23:43):
If I see it, I'm going to go to it
as long as they can attend it. So that's where
a lot of that goes to, but I probably wouldn't
put it past myself to donate a little bit of
money towards it too.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
I don't need a hotel upcrase.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
Do you have a favorite autograph that you have received
or a favorite collectible.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
That's really hard. I do have.
Speaker 7 (24:07):
One of the pro combat helmets from the like twenty
fourteen twenty fifteen era that I had Coach D'Antonio sign here.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
It's a game used helmet.
Speaker 7 (24:18):
I got it from one of the spring games at
MSU they were selling it, so that that's pretty high
up there for me. I have. In terms of my
lion stuff, I have a couple of Jared Goff issue jerseys.
I actually have one of his jerseys from when he
was at CAL, So that's cool. I like to call
(24:39):
it like game use stuff, like I got a Kerry
Carpenter game use jersey. So that's that's the other side
of me that I probably don't talk as much about.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
All Right, well, what would you pay it? We'll end
it right here. What would you pay for a game?
Warn Jared Goff super Bowl jersey?
Speaker 7 (24:58):
We would I pay it?
Speaker 3 (25:00):
Slipped me on the spot.
Speaker 7 (25:02):
I don't know. It wouldn't tell for this cheap, but
I probably would put like ten grand on that.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
We won't tell Jelly. We won't tell her what you're doing.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
She might hear this later, but that's okay.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
Yeah, all right, all right, Mike, thanks so much for
your time. I appreciate it. And how busy you are.
I'm sure I'll see you out at One North for
the Jonathan Smith Show, and I'll see you at.

because I don't think I'm going to Nebraska game, and
I I don't know about Iowa. I'm headed to Greece
over Thanksgivings.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
We'll enjoy that.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Yeah, it's funny when Michigan State plays Maryland at Ford Field.
When the Spartans are playing, I'm actually going to be
in Sparta, believe it or not.

Speaker 1 (00:46):
Jack Kablin here with my producer Boston rob Or reminder,
Tigers hosting the Kansas City Royals tonight, the first in
a three game set. Tigers nine and a half up
over the second place Royals in the American League Central Division.
All right, one week from tonight. We've said this a
couple times during the show. We're going to repeat it
(01:08):
in Michigan State opening the twenty twenty five football seasons
against the Western Michigan Broncos at Spartan Stadium. I want
to welcome in a guy who doesn't miss many Michigan
State games and sees a lot of other games too,
and that is Spartan. Mike Sterner, Doctor Sterner, How you doing, Doc?
Speaker 7 (01:29):
Good? Thanks for having me on, Jack, I'm doing well.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Are you at McLaren?
Speaker 7 (01:36):
Now?
Speaker 2 (01:36):
Where are you as we speak?
Speaker 3 (01:39):
I just got out of McLaren.
Speaker 7 (01:40):
I'm no longer there, but I was there all day
today otherwise, and it was a busy day.
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Okay, you say you just got out of McLaren, You
mean you left the hospital.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
You haven't stopped working there.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
No, I haven't stopped working there.
Speaker 7 (01:55):
No, I'm under contract for a couple more years at least.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
I got you. I got you. Okay.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
Well, you're also under an emotional contract with Michigan State
and the Detroit Lions and a lot of other teams
that you follow around the country. What do you make
of this Spartan team.
Speaker 7 (02:16):
I think that the thing I keep seeing is like
familiarity and depth. I mean, with Jonathan Smith and his
staff being here for another year, I see the depth
that they've added through the portal. But just a lot
of young guys that are coming back to the program
this year, and they know the system and people are familiar.
Speaker 3 (02:36):
You know, as you go from Aiden Child's.
Speaker 7 (02:38):
Down, everybody's really getting used to us lancing. They're matured,
they're growing, and I expect them to have a better
year this year, and I'm pretty confident that they will.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Is there a position or position group that you feel
particularly confident in things can match up with the best
in the Big Ten? And there's are one that really
concerns you.
Speaker 7 (03:01):
I would say that wide receiver. I don't think it
can just match up with anyone in the Big Ten.
I think you can match up with anybody in the country.
You have Nick Marsho's one of the best young receivers
in the country, and then you had one like Omari
Kelly and Krashan McCrae, and I think, you know, you
have a really good group there. I think the group
that I'm probably most worried about is probably the offensive
(03:25):
line because those skilled players and the quarterback and the
running game all rely on that. And you know, we've
had some pretty inconsistent offensive line play really over the
last decade, so we need to get that figured out.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
Yeah, I would agree with you about the wide out.
So I think Michigan State has six six wide receivers
who could have played for them in most years and
many of their most successful years. And I would have
agreed with you heading into the preseason camp about the
offensive line.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I think my doubts there have been.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Smoothed over to some degree because of the depth, the
number of players, some experience that's been added, not going
to be subject injuries quite the way they were a
year ago. But I'm really concerned about the place kicking
on this team. And I could see that making a
difference of two wins.
Speaker 7 (04:26):
Yeah, we saw it make a difference in in the
Indiana game where we could have made a bowl game
a few years back, and so you know, we didn't
really have a kicker, and then Gonath and Kim came
and blessed us the next year and he's no longer
here here.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Yeah, they're gonna miss Jonathan Kim. I think even though
he had the one kick against Michigan on the first drive,
the twenty five yard or he missed, but he didn't
miss many others. He made a lot of long onesime.
I guess I don't know what his combined distance was.
I should add it up against Iowa, but I think
it was a big ten record for the most yards
(05:07):
on field goals in one game.
Speaker 7 (05:09):
Well, he had the big ten record on an individual kick.
I was at the same so I remember that.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
Yeah, they Kinnick Stadium record.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
I'm sorry, yeah, Kinnick Stadium. Yeah, yeah, you know.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
I saw a couple of transoceanic kicks for a Michigan
State mic one with Morton Anderson, and you know, at
sixty was no big deal to him. He would try
to make field goals on kickoffs. And then I saw
(05:43):
a game against Purdue. This was Georgia's first year nineteen
eighty three, and Spartans had to try a fifty nine
yard field goal to tie, and Ralph Mosienko drilled that
and it was twenty nine to twenty nine at the
end of the game, so no overtime, that was just it.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
They both both walked away frustrated.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Do you think the big difference is going to be
for Jonathan Smith in year two.
Speaker 7 (06:13):
I think he's honestly understands Michigan State now. I think
he understands the culture here. I think that was probably
one of my big concerns when he came here, has
come here from the West Coast team, and you know,
does he really understand the rivalry between Michigan, does he
understand the region? And I think he's hired some guys
like Joe Rossi and other guy like Courtney Hawkins, guys
(06:35):
on the staff that do understand Big Ten culture, Michigan
State culture, and I think he's fully adapted and now
he's bought in, and I think he's really reflected on
things he would have did differently in.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
His first year. I mean it's his first year.
Speaker 7 (06:48):
I think everybody, I just finished my first year at
McLaren Lanton and there's things I would have did differently there.
So I understand that notion. And I think he's learned
and growed and I think he's been a successful coach.
And I think his players really buy in, so I
think adding that and then he's really embracing the transfer
(07:08):
portal Nil culture that we have along with our new
ad and I think you know that those two as
a team are going to become a stronger group for
our football program.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
Mike You and doctor Tom Jamison, longtime area family physician
and athletic physician, probably talk to more Michigan State fans
than any docs. I know, what do you think the
fan expectations are this year and what would be satisfactory
in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 7 (07:44):
I think the floor expectation is we have to make
a Bowl game this year, no questions ask, And I
think you know, the ceiling kind of expectation is looking
at eight or nine wins.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Rico Beer, you probably are familiar with on our television show,
has twice said that not only does Jonathan Smith have
to win eight games this year, but he and his
staff also have to beat Michigan. That seems like a
pretty heavy expectation, a big lift for a second year's staff.
(08:22):
Do you think there's one game that is going to
be a litmus test or do you think that if
Michigan State can get an upset or two along the way,
it won't come down to a one game season.
Speaker 7 (08:35):
I don't think you can put anything on one game.
As much as I'd love to win the Michigan game,
you know, I think winning eight games in total over
winning five and winning the Michigan games matters more. But
I think that, you know, having a school like Boston College,
a power conference school, come into Michigan State and Week two,
(08:57):
and you know, I felt like that was a really
big turning point for the season last year. And if
we would have won that game, who has been to
a Bowl game and a bunch of other things, we
might have even gotten another win with confidence and such.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
So I think that one.
Speaker 7 (09:12):
You know, it's not the first one you think of,
but I think because it's so early and it's at home,
you got to get it done.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
You've heard all of the height.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
About Bryce Underwood and the question about does he win
one Heisman or two, and all of the talk about
the money that he got to play in an arbor
after first committing to LSU.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Takes a lot to buy a player away from LSU.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
But when you think about how good Underwood can be,
and if you saw him in high school, you know
that he's more than just flip service. Would you rather
have Aiden Hiles or Bryce Underwood this year?
Speaker 7 (09:52):
I think I'd rather have Aiden Giles just because I
think he's kind of been through the lumps, and he's
also you know, he doesn't like and talent himself, but
he had to go through that maturity year behind you know,
a beat up offensive line, and he had to learn
a lot about himself, and you know, maybe Bryce under
would will have to go through some of that himself
this year, maybe to the to the enjoyment of the
(10:15):
Spartans when Michigan comes here. But I think I'd rather
have the seasoned, more veteran type guy.
Speaker 2 (10:23):
All Right.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
I know your habit of showing up at games and
unusual places, not just games here in East Lansing or
in Detroit. I don't know exactly how you do that
with your work shifts, but you managed to do it.
Do you know which road games Michigan State plays?
Speaker 2 (10:42):
Five of them? Where will you be?
Speaker 7 (10:45):
I'll one hundred percent be back in LA where I
was a month ago for that game. I'm ninety nine
percent sure I'm going to go to Indiana. I'm thinking
about Minnesota, and then one of the Nebraska, Iowa, so
almost all of them.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
Okay, Okay, Well, I will see you or pass you
at some form in LA.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
And I'm going with Jay Green and.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
Someone else going to Bloomington and flying to Minnesota. So
if it turns out you're at those three places, maybe
we can grab a meal or something there.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
What about the Lions.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
I know you've been to Green Bay show up other
places for important games for Detroit. Looking at the schedule,
are you going to see any Lions road games?
Speaker 7 (11:34):
I am going to every Lions road game, and I
have flights book for every Lions road game except to
One of my goals is to see the Lions win
in every NFL stadium, not just a tend a game there,
but see them win. I've already been to Kansas City.
I watched them win that game a couple of years
ago on Sunday night or on the opening day game.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
And then Baltimore is the weekend.
Speaker 7 (11:56):
Of the USC game, so it's a Monday night game.
But I don't know if I want to be that
crazy that Hey.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
Rob, When you hear Spartan Mike talk about being at
all of these road games and getting to every game,
I mean there will be players on the team who
won't be at every game. Some of them will be
home getting treatment for injuries. Can you imagine having that
kind of dedication and having games be that much a
(12:26):
part of your life.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
That's great to hear. I want to frequent fire miles,
That's what I want.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
I just want to make sure that he's as good
in the operating room or that he is when he's
dealing with patients as he is getting to these games.
Speaker 7 (12:44):
Well, I will say Jack, I don't go with the
operating room. Thankfully, I'm not assurgent, but I think my
patient care is okay at least okay.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
All right, So when you're talking to patients and let's
say you have one come in and they have a
big Michigan tattoo, or they are resplendent from head to
toe in scarlet and gray, do you close your eyes
a little bit? Or do you do you suggest to
(13:15):
them that they'd feel better if they change their garb
or their logo.
Speaker 7 (13:20):
You know, if they are a new patient, you really
got to read the room. You can't abset people too much,
but if you think they can take it, you throw
some jabs at them, but all in good fun.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
And if I know them long enough, I will definitely
throw some jabs at them.
Speaker 7 (13:34):
And sometimes they know me even when they're in Michigan
panc before they even come see me.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
So you're living in mid Michigan now, right, You were
not when you were going through your residency and.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
All these things.
Speaker 7 (13:49):
Correct. I am in East Lancing now. Previously I had
done my training at MacLaren, McComb and Mount Clemons. And
I was living in Hazel Park where I grew up.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
So how long did it take you to get from
Hazel Park up here for the coaches shows? You're such
a fixture over at One North, used to be over
at Reno's every show. A lot easier for you right now.
You're saving a lot of gas mileage for that.
Speaker 7 (14:20):
Yeah, I'm one hundred percent taking a lot of gas mileage.
It would take, depending on you know what, the traffic
that we have in the construction, sometimes two hours, so
I'd get in right when the show started. Sometimes and
you know, I'm leaving from the east Side as they
call it in McCombe, where I was doing my training,
so I'd get right in the car.
Speaker 3 (14:41):
I'd have a change of clothes, a change that go.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
You know what I'm thinking here, Rob, Let me ask
you first, who do you think as more devotion? I mean,
we're talking about the extreme of the extreme super fans
right spartan mic with Michigan State and what you just
heard about being at every Lion's game home and away
(15:08):
or the fabulous flying nesses.
Speaker 5 (15:11):
You just got to combine, just combine them all, Yes,
just have them all, just have them gold all together.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
I mean, these guys perfect look.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Like a casual fan and that's so so you know
what I think we ought to do. Rob, hold me
to this so I don't forget. Okay, I think at
some point after the basketball season we ought to have
a special event and I can probably pick out five
of the ten. But since we're talking about the Big
(15:44):
ten all year, let's have a deal with the ten
greatest super fans and bring them over to One North
and we'll have a hell of a party.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
What do you think.
Speaker 3 (15:56):
It sounds like fun? Jack?
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Yeah, there's still some openings on this list, folks, So
if you think you belong and I know some people
be clubbing each other to get spots eight, nine and
ten on this list, but I think we ought to
do that, and we'll mention again throughout the year. But
you have to let us know why you belong here.
(16:19):
I mean not just a fan, not just a devoted
fan or a diehard fan or a super fan. I'm
talking about almost an insane level of passion and loyalty
to follow the team, and frankly, frankly, a lot of
people can't do it. But Mike, you were doing this
before you were making doctor dough right, Yeah, yeah, Jack.
Speaker 7 (16:42):
You know I always told people, you know, I'm not
I'm not in the gambling, I'm not really into drinking.
Speaker 3 (16:48):
I'm not into any of that stuff.
Speaker 7 (16:49):
So I saved a lot of money with that, and
then I prioritize it because a lot of my colleagues
in medicine asked me, how are you able to do this?
Speaker 3 (16:57):
And I mean, one thing, I don't have kids or
anything like that. I do I have a fiance.
Speaker 7 (17:00):
But uh, on top of that, you know, I prioritized it.
I got vice in medical school that if you want
to do stuff, you got to do it. Prioritize it
now because if you keep saying you're not going to
do it now, you're never going to do it.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
So I took that to heart and I've always prioritized it.
Speaker 7 (17:17):
I always tell people there's twenty four hours in every day,
and if you're you really want to do something, you
can figure it out.
Speaker 5 (17:23):
I'll your this is your addiction, right like, this is
your addiction?
Speaker 7 (17:27):
Yes, that is That is a very fair way to
put it.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Is there any kind of treatment or therapy for this?
Speaker 1 (17:37):
If you knew someone else who had the same situation,
anything you would prescribe, Mike.
Speaker 7 (17:44):
Honestly, I don't know any ill side effects of it,
other than like you don't truly have the money for it.
So I don't think I need to prescribe. I honestly,
I actually try to prescribe this lifestyle the more people.
Speaker 5 (17:58):
Yeah, work hard, play right now, gotcha? Okay, yes, work hard,
you're playing hard.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
You mentioned your fiance. You might as well give her
a plug. You may need it at some point. What's
her name?
Speaker 7 (18:10):
Her name is Angelie, but I call her Jelly. She's
She's actually from Nepal and she she came here on
what they called the Green Card lottery. It's underrepresented countries
in the US. They try to get more people from
there so that people literally put their name in the
(18:31):
hat for a lottery, and she won it.
Speaker 3 (18:33):
And it's really funny because.
Speaker 7 (18:35):
She plays scratch card lottery all the time and she
wins probably every time.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
She does it.
Speaker 7 (18:40):
So I always joked her life spent a lottery, But
I'm really proud of her to go through that process.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
How long has she been in the country.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Going on, I want to say eight years.
Speaker 7 (18:52):
I've known her for a solid six years, and she
got her citizenship five years into that time. So she's
a full US citizen.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
And now I was going to say, so you don't
have to worry about coming back from a road trip
and finding her gone.
Speaker 2 (19:05):
She's an American citizen.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
No, No, she's good.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
What does she say about this? Have you converted her?
Does she just think?
Speaker 2 (19:15):
Okay, well, that's the one thing weird about my guy.
Speaker 7 (19:19):
So I always tell people I could never date somebody
who is as big of a fan as me, because
it would be like dating myself and I'd get sick
of it. Yeah, and so she doesn't care about sports
at all, but she has definitely started to come around,
and she's come to me with some games. She definitely
(19:39):
thinks I'm insane. She laughs at me and calls me crazy,
but yeah, she loves me.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
That's so cool.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
I say that as someone who is celebrating the wedding
anniversary number fifty tomorrow.
Speaker 7 (19:53):
So congratulating Jack, thank you, thank you.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
If you and Jelly get to fifty.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Boston rob show up, I won't be around, but I
hope that hope that you have that kind of longevity.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
One more thing, Mike, I may have asked you this before.
Speaker 1 (20:10):
But you are very well known for that outsized hat
that you have with you often, that Spartan hat. And
I've seen that put on doctor Johnson. You know, he's
in his nineties. He looked great in it. Is there
one person you would most like to see wearing that hat?
Speaker 7 (20:32):
Honestly, I think I need to and you suggested this,
but I do think I need to put it on Tom.
I don't know how he would react to it. I
know he thinks I already. He knows who I am,
and he thinks I'm insane. But I don't know how
he would react.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
I think you got to pick the right moment for.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
Well. I'll tell you what. I can make this happen
for you.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
If you can get Michigan State to win a national championship,
I can get that hat on his head.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
I'll try my best.
Speaker 7 (21:02):
Jack.
Speaker 1 (21:04):
I thought maybe Rob that sparty Mike would say, I've
got to see this on Desmond Howard's head.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Or Edwards or Edwards?
Speaker 5 (21:16):
How about that?
Speaker 7 (21:17):
You know what, Jack, I truly would not want that
because I feel like.
Speaker 4 (21:20):
My hat it'd be tainted forever.
Speaker 5 (21:23):
Mike, you don't want it. I got to ask you
do you do you show the hat to some of
your patients?
Speaker 8 (21:30):
Right?
Speaker 5 (21:31):
Do you tell them the story?
Speaker 7 (21:33):
You know what? So I part of why I have
a big following is I have like a Facebook page
that my friend started and there's a big following on it.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
He did a lot of the lag report.
Speaker 7 (21:43):
But I have patients that come into the clinic and
they'll see my because I teach residents, and so a
lot of times I'll go in the room after the
residents are done seeing the patient and wrap up the visit,
and a lot there's been times where.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
They they know who I am, they say are you?
Speaker 7 (21:59):
Are you Mike? So it's especially now living in this
East Lanting Lancing area. It's a lot more common than
it was down in the Detroit area. But it happens
probably twice a week. I'm not even kidding.
Speaker 3 (22:11):
That's cool.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
So you are pretty new to the medical profession. It's
not like you have a ton of money set aside yet.
But yeah, in terms of what this costs you in
a year, do you have an estimate.
Speaker 7 (22:32):
It? Honestly, I don't know. I would say probably in
the twenty to thirty thousand dollars range. I'm really pretty
I think I'm you know, I come from a you know,
my father is kind of a frugal man, and so
I've learned some kind of frugal Like I don't need
the fanciest hotel and I don't need the I find
out all the deals, like I use McLaren's company company
(22:55):
corporate deal for the rental cars and all that kind
of cool stuff.
Speaker 3 (22:59):
So it's a lot to do it.
Speaker 1 (23:02):
You know, you do it on not on the cheap,
but you know how to save money doing it.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
Yes, great, that's great.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
So when you get a nice nest egg, are you
the kind of person who would be donating to name,
image and likeness? Would you be donating to facilities? Would
you be donating to personal upgrades for your hotel rooms?
Speaker 2 (23:25):
What would you do?
Speaker 7 (23:28):
You know, I really do like to kind of give
to the players directly, and you know, so I don't
know if it's truly nil, but I'm really big and
like doing if they do any kind of an autograph session,
especially now that they.
Speaker 3 (23:41):
Can truly get paid for it, I will.
Speaker 7 (23:43):
If I see it, I'm going to go to it
as long as they can attend it. So that's where
a lot of that goes to, but I probably wouldn't
put it past myself to donate a little bit of
money towards it too.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
I don't need a hotel upcrase.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
Do you have a favorite autograph that you have received
or a favorite collectible.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
That's really hard. I do have.
Speaker 7 (24:07):
One of the pro combat helmets from the like twenty
fourteen twenty fifteen era that I had Coach D'Antonio sign here.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
It's a game used helmet.
Speaker 7 (24:18):
I got it from one of the spring games at
MSU they were selling it, so that that's pretty high
up there for me. I have. In terms of my
lion stuff, I have a couple of Jared Goff issue jerseys.
I actually have one of his jerseys from when he
was at CAL, So that's cool. I like to call
(24:39):
it like game use stuff, like I got a Kerry
Carpenter game use jersey. So that's that's the other side
of me that I probably don't talk as much about.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
All Right, well, what would you pay it? We'll end
it right here. What would you pay for a game?
Warn Jared Goff super Bowl jersey?
Speaker 7 (24:58):
We would I pay it?
Speaker 3 (25:00):
Slipped me on the spot.
Speaker 7 (25:02):
I don't know. It wouldn't tell for this cheap, but
I probably would put like ten grand on that.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
We won't tell Jelly. We won't tell her what you're doing.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
She might hear this later, but that's okay.
Speaker 1 (25:14):
Yeah, all right, all right, Mike, thanks so much for
your time. I appreciate it. And how busy you are.
I'm sure I'll see you out at One North for
the Jonathan Smith Show, and I'll see you at.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
Games, lots of games this year.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
You might actually be at more games than I will,
because I don't think I'm going to Nebraska game, and
I I don't know about Iowa. I'm headed to Greece
over Thanksgivings.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
We'll enjoy that.
Speaker 1 (25:42):
Yeah, it's funny when Michigan State plays Maryland at Ford Field.
When the Spartans are playing, I'm actually going to be
in Sparta, believe it or not.
