Kavaun breaks down the Lions NFL Week 1 matchup with the LA Rams in the first episode of a series focused on the Detroit Lions 2024-2025 season. In addition to a solid breakdown of the overtime victory, Kavaun talks about why Aidan Hutchinson should be mic'd up on game day. It's no surprise that the father-son duo pledges once again to keep a regular podcast schedule aiming to highlight Lions games and provide an overview of select weekly NFL highlights.

Kavaun harkens back to the good ole days of Larry Bird's NBA and he admits that he is actually paying attention when his dad talks sports fandom of the 80's! Enjoy a segment called Cranky or Legit? as Nick shares five sports fan takes that he's not on board with and Kavaun gets to decide if he's just old and cranky or actually has a legit take. Nick almost gets Kavaun to admit that Spencer Torkelson is a bust for the Detroit Tigers.

See if you can beat Kavaun in the NCAA 2023 mascot challenge, and we're both confident you will agree with our analysis of some of the nation's worst mascots.

Kavaun educates his dad about the Lions NFL playoff chances and the two debate how success should be measured for the 2022 Lions. In this pod, I challenge Kavaun to EXPECT a Lions playoff berth as he sidesteps getting his hopes up too high. After winning five of the last six, It's no surprise that Kavaun defends Lions coach Dan Campbell and Nick continues to question his unconventional in-game decisions. Kavaun has been defending Lions coach Dan Campbell all season and after a 1-6 start he believed the Lions would be proven wise for sticking with him at least three seasons. Predictably, Nick...

Before we can break down Super Bowl LVI, we jump right into, who is not coaching in the NFL. We start with Jim Harbaugh (Vikings not interested) before digging in on our own learning about Brian Flores, the history of black coaches in professional sports, and all the questions we're left wondering. Kavaun picks his best NFL helmets and his dad has to step in and help him respect some classics. Of course, Kavaun and Baba made room for some MSU Spartan hoops and end with Kavaun off the Cuff.

We talk road wins, debate whether good losses exist and I challenge Kavaun to choose between two MSU Coaches for a dinner date - Coach Izzo or Coach Tucker. His answer might surprise you.
