Detroit sports podcasters Greg Eno, Big Al Beaton and Nick Milanovich are The Knee Jerks!
This week, our guest is a long-time
friend of the show: Author and former Detroit Free Press beat
writer Keith Gave.
Keith returns to discuss all things
Detroit Red Wings, including the late-season collapse that sent the
franchise back into the draft lottery for a ninth consecutive year,
team captain Dylan Larkin voicing his disappointment regarding the
organization not making a major moveat the trade deadline, GM Steve
Yzerman's response to Larkin in what was a somewhat contentious
end-of-season press conference, the current state of the NHL
playoffs and reminices about his days as the Wings beat writer.
We also discuss the Detroit Pistons' hard-fought six-game
first-round playoff loss to the New York Knicks and the Detroit
Tigers' red-hot opening month, entering May with the best record in
the AL (22-13, .629) and top run differential (+63) in all of
MLB.
We also play Greg's Birthday Game and name our respective Jerk of
the Week.
Programming note: Al is in northern Michigan working with limited bandwidth, so this week's podcast upload is the raw, unedited audio.
