Detroit sports podcasters Greg Eno, Big Al Beaton, and Nick Milanovich are The Knee Jerks! With the NBA Playoffs in full swing, our NBA stats guru Siddy Hall joins us to talk all things Detroit Pistons and the postseason. The #1-seed Pistons dropped game one to the #8-seed Magic, 112-101. They came out sloppy and slow, gave the Magic life, and were forced to play from behind the entire game. PANIC IN MOTOWN? To say a fan base that hasn’t witnessed a home playoff game win in over a generation isn’t taking the loss well is an understatement. The Magic out-Pistoned the Pistons in...

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.

This week, our topics include:
After two weeks of Sherrone Moore driven embarrassment and coaching search drama, the University of Michigan fell ass backwards into a quality coaching hire. Former Utah head football coach Kyle Whittingham is the new man running the Wolverines.
The Detroit Lions quite possibly played their worst game of the Dan Campbell era in a 23-10 Christmas Day loss to the Minnesota Vikings. The loss ended the Lions' postseason hopes and exposed several issues that will need to be addressed in the offseason.
The Detroit Pistons are currently playing one of their toughest stretches of the season - 8 road games (including a West Coast swing of 5 games in 8 days) in a 10-game stretch. Despite the difficult schedule, the Pistons remain at the top of the East with a 24-8 record, holding a 1.5-game advantage over the NY Knicks.
We also play Greg's Birthday game and name our respective Jerk of the Week!
