The Knee Jerks Podcast - Eno, Nick and Big Al
Detroit sports podcasters Greg Eno, Big Al Beaton and Nick Milanovich are The Knee Jerks! This week The Knee Jerks discuss all four Detroit teams, Topics include: The Detroit Red Wings are dealing with their third consecutive March swoon, losing five straight games. The Ides of March, indeed. The Wings will need at least 95 points to make the post season. It ain't happening. GM Steve Yzerman made one trade deadline deal, which was little more than shuffling deck chairs. Yzerman drafts well, but his roster construction is greatly lacking. As in Troy Weaver style...

The Knee Jerks Podcast - The airing of grievances
The Knee Jerks Podcast - Eno, Nick and Big Al
Detroit sports podcasters Greg Eno, Big Al Beaton and Nick Milanovich are The Knee Jerks! Unfortunately, we had to reschedule our special guest, Bob Page. Bob will return to the show very, very soon.

The Knee Jerks Podcast - Eno, Nick and Big Al
Detroit sports podcasters Greg Eno, Big Al Beaton and Nick Milanovich are The Knee Jerks! This week we discuss all things Detroit sports. Topics include: The 11-1 Detroit Lions have won 10 consecutive games despite their defense being ravaged by injury. But the Vikings, Eagles and Packers are nipping at the Lions' heels, as all refuse to lose. The Lions finally ended their Thanksgiving losing steak, much helped by coaching malpractice and clock butchery committed by the now fired Bears HC Matt Eberflus. Jameson Williams continues to do Jamo things, both good and bad. Unranked 6-5 Michigan...

Keith is a former Detroit Red Wings beat writer for the Detroit Free Press and an author of several books about hockey.

The Knee Jerks Podcast with Eno Nick and Big Al - September 23 2024
The Knee Jerks Podcast - Eno, Nick and Big Al
Detroit sports podcasters Greg Eno, Big Al Beaton and Nick Milanovich are The Knee Jerks! This week's topics include: The Detroit Tigers historic late season run has them on the verge of making the playoffs, which was a pipe dream 6 weeks ago. The Tigers' bullpen has been lights out, but lacks an arm that misses bats. To fix that, top pitching prospect Jackson Jobe (MLBs #6 overall prospect who posted 9.9 K/9 at AA Erie) has been called up to pitch out of the pen. Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell sells his home due to harassment from idiot fans. The Lions beat the Arizona Cardinals 20-13...

We welcome the new year with a new episode of The Knee Jerks!
Upcoming guests: Our NBA stats guru Siddy Hall joins us on 01/30. One of our favorite guests, Eastern Michigan head football coach Chris Creighton, is also on the schedule.
This weeks topics include:
The Detroit Lions clinched the NFC North and are in the playoffs! It's their first division title since winning the no longer in existence NFC Central in 1993.
The Lions were screwed by NFL refs....again.
Who's to blame for the 2 point conversion snafu which cost the Lions a win and a shot at the 1 or 2 seed? You'd think it was referee Brad Allen, the NFL's version of Angel Hernandez. According to the NFL, it's the Lions fault for attempting to deceive. But isn't that the point of a TRICK PLAY?
The shield never, ever admits to a mistake. EVER.
Was Dan Campbell overly aggressive in going for the win, attempting the 2 point conversion, not just once, or twice, but three times?
Campbell says he's going to play his starters in their final regular season game, despite it being meaningless.
The Michigan Wolverines knocked off the Alabama Crimson Tide in a thrilling OT game, and will play the Washington Huskies for the national title.
J.J. McCarthy and Blake Corum finally got their signature win.
What's next for the ever mercurial Jim Harbaugh? Does he sign a reportedly massive, long-term contract extension to remain at Michigan? Or is he prowling on an NFL sideline next fall?
Georgia Bulldogs head coach Kirby Smart calls out the bowl system after the majority of the Florida State Seminoles starting lineup opted out of the glorified exhibition that was the Orange Bowl.
The Detroit Pistons made the wrong kind of history, setting a new single season NBA record with a 28 game losing streak.
As GM Troy Weaver remains MIA, owner Tom Gores did a video Q & A with a handful of Pistons beat writers. It was held late Friday night on December 23rd, the definition of a holiday news dump.
Gores came off as completely out of touch, saying, “Other than winning, we do everything to bring the best to Detroit.”
We also play Greg's Birthday Game and name our respective Jerk of the Week!
