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, our topics include: Insanity in Ann Arbor! The Wolverines fired head coach Sherrone Moore with cause. The cause? He was a married man getting it on with his assistant in the athletic department. After getting the ziggy, a reportedly already unstable Moore had a mental break, entering the home of his mistress and threatening suicide. He now faces charges of stalking, breaking, and entering and felony home invasion. One of the best jobs in college football is in flux, with very few...

We held off recording a new episode for a few days, waiting on the Detroit Tigers - Seattle Mariners ALDS to come to a conclusion or reach game 5.

With the Detroit Pistons having clinched (at worst) the sixth playoff seed in the Eastern Conference, we think it's a great time to preview the playoffs with our favorite NBA stats guru, Siddy Hall.
We also talk ethical hoopers vs foul merchants, who wins the league MVP and coach of the year, and Siddy has another Pistons quiz!
In the second half of the show, we dive into the latest in Detroit sports. Topics include:
Detroit Tigers assistant GM Sam Menzin resigned last week to "spend more time with family." But that was BS. This week The Athletic reported Menzin quit before he was fired, as he was channeling his inner Bret Favre by sending unsolicited lewd pictures to female Tigers employees. And doing so since 2017!
On the field, the Tigers bounced back from a sweep by the LA Dodgers to win their series against the Mariners and White Sox,
Positive surprises to start the season include Spencer Torkelson, Casey Mize and Javy Baez, who has willingly accepted a platoon/super utility role.
Torpedo bats are the latest silly rule controversy.
The Pirates insult their fans by replacing a Roberto Clemente logo in right field with a beer ad.
Vlad Guerrero Jr inked a 14 year, $500 million extension with the Blue Jays. That contract is going to look horrible when it hits the back half.
Alex Ovechkin passed Wayne Gretsky as the NHL's top goal scorer with 895. Ovechkin still has a way to go to catch Gordie Howe's overall profession record, which includes his years in the WHL. But is Ovechkin's accomplishment more impressive, being the WHL was clearly a lower tier league?
We also play Greg's Birthday game and name our respective Jerk of the Week!
Programming note: Al will be on the road for the next few weeks, so our next podcast will go live on May 5.
