    2025/12/04

    Detroit sports podcasters Greg Eno, Big Al Beaton and Nick Milanovich are The Knee Jerks! Al is snowbound, as Michiganders say, up north, so today's show will be shorter, and the audio version will be bare-bones.

    This week, we'll discuss the Thanksgiving week from Hell that was Detroit sports. including:

    The rash of fake death notices posted online, the latest being Hall of Fame CB Lem Barney.

    The Lions losing to the Packers as their playoff chances took a big hit.

    The Pistons' 13 game win streak came to an end.

    Also, the Red Wings lost 4 straight, Ohio St compellingly beat Michigan, and MSU fired their head football coach, replacing him with a very questionable hire in Pat Fitzgerald.

    We also play Greg's Birthday game and name our respective Jerk of the Week!

  • The Knee Jerks Podcast - October 21 2025
    2025/10/21

    Detroit sports podcasters Greg Eno, Big Al Beaton and Nick Milanovich are The Knee Jerks! Al is still in the Michigan wilderness, so today's show will be shorter, and the audio version will be bare bones.

    Greg is on vacation this week. But not to worry, we have a replacement! Wally Pipping Eno is Chris Pomay. Chris is a Canadian podcaster, host of the Chris Pomay with CDP Talk Show.

    You can find Chris at the following links:

    We'll touch on several topics, including:

    The Lions bounced back from a tough vs the Chiefs (filled with controversial ref shenanigans) with a 24-9 victory over the Bucs on Monday Night Football. The win was all the more impressive thanks to The Legion of Whom, aka a defensive backfield led by career backups and recent waiver wire pickups. After facing the 5th toughest schedule in the NFL to date, the Lions enter the bye week at 5-2.

    In 15 excruciating innings, the longest post season game in MLB history, the Tigers lost to the Mariners in game 5 of the ALDS, ending their season. A few days later, POBO Scott Harris announced AJ Hinch received a long rumored contract extension during his end of the season presser.

    The Mariners remain the only team to have never reached a World Series, losing to the Blue Jays in game 7 of the ALCS, Thus, we have a Jays - Dodgers World Series. The Dodgers are led by Shohei Ohtani, who may have had the greatest game ever in game 4 of the NLCS - 6 IP, 10 K, 3-3 with 3 HR.

    Thanks to knee surgery, the Pistons lost Jaden Ivey for at least 4 weeks on the eve of the NBA regular season. Media reports also claim the franchise will not offer extensions to Ivey or Jalen Duren, which will make them restricted free agents after this season.

    The Red Wings are off to a surprisingly good start at 5-1, the best record in the East. This is even more surprising after their AWFUL opening night loss to the Habs. And, of course, they followed up that loss by sweeping a home and home with the Maple Leafs.

  • The Knee Jerks Podcast - October 8 2025
    2025/10/08

    Detroit sports podcasters Greg Eno, Big Al Beaton, and Nick Milanovich are The Knee Jerks!

    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. Also, Al is still in the Michigan wilderness, so today's show will be shorter than usual, and the audio version will be bare bones.

    This week, our topics include:

    The Tigers' offense continues its weeks-long slumber, dropping ALDS games two (a loss despite Tarik Skubal allowing just two runs) and three (Jack "Jekyll and Hyde" Flaherty was Dr Jekyll). This has left the Tigers in a hit the damn ball or the season is over situation.

    Meanwhile, the Detroit Lions continue to roll, winners of four straight. Their latest game was a relatively workman-like 37-24 road win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Coming up are the surprisingly under .500 Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday Night Football. Unfortunately, injuries are taking a toll on the defense AGAIN. This year, it's the cornerback room that is being decimated.

    The Detroit Red Wings start their season this week, with a possible youth movement as three rookies made the roster. When it comes to team building, here are similarities between the Tigers' POBO Scott Harris and Wings GM Steve Yzerman.

    We also play Greg's Birthday Game and name our respective Jerk of the Week.

    Detroit sports podcasters Greg Eno, Big Al Beaton and Nick Milanovich are The Knee Jerks!

    This week's show is a wide ranging discussion covering the rise of the Detroit Lions, who looked for all the world like a Super Bowl contender in beating the Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football, and the Detroit Tigers, who are on the verge of a historic collapse.

  • The Knee Jerks Podcast - Back from summer vacation with Ken Kal
    2025/09/09
    Detroit sports podcasters Greg Eno, Big Al Beaton and Nick Milanovich are The Knee Jerks! We're back from our extended summer vacation. Our special guest is also ready to return to broadcasting after a summer off - Detroit Red Wings radio play-by-play man Ken Kal! Ken makes his annual appearance to preview the coming Red Wings season, discussing roster moves, trades, free agency, prospects, Sergei Fedorov's jersey being retired, and the late Alex Delvecchio. In the second half of the show, our topics include: The Detroit Lions' loss to the Green Bay Packers was concerning, to say the very least. It shouldn't be a shock that a team with so much coaching upheaval did not get off to a good start. The Lions' offense looked nothing like the dynamic force we saw in 2024. The pitchforks and torches are already out for OC John Morton. Za'Darius Smith will not be the reason the Lions win or lose. But when Dan Campbell told 97.1 The Ticket, "We're good" when asked about not signing Smith, the internet fans lost their minds. Jameson Williams got paid. Who's left for the Lions to extend? Tarik Skubal will win the Cy Young again. Unfortunately, due to injuries and ineffectiveness with the rest of the staff, the Detroit Tigers will revert to "Pitching chaos" in the postseason. Did POBO Scott Harris do enough at the trade deadline? He has fallen in love with his prospects, which likely played into their not making any trades that truly moved the needle. What does the future hold for former (maybe future) Detroit Pistons guard Malik Beasley? The feds have not yet fully cleared him of gambling allegations. As for the NBA, we just don't know how hard they may come down on him. We also play Greg's Birthday game and name our respective Jerk of the Week!

  • The Knee Jerks Podcast - Keith Gave returns
    2025/05/06
    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.

  • The Knee Jerks Podcast - Pistons and NBA playoff preview with Siddy Hall
    2025/04/08
    Detroit sports podcasters Greg Eno, Big Al Beaton and Nick Milanovich are The Knee Jerks! 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.
