The Knee Jerks - Talking Detroit Lions with Mike Schottey

The Knee Jerks

On tonight's show: We'll talk about the Lions' first win of the season with one of our favorite guests, Mike Schottey of Bleacher Report (http://bleacherreport.com/users/111184-michael-schottey), DraftTek.com, BlueAndSilverPride.com. Mike can also be found on Twitter as @Schottey. Along with the Rams game, we'll look back on the first quarter of the season, and what we can expect next week in the Meadowlands against the Giants, and beyond. After we cover the Lions, we'll move on to the latest in Detroit sports. First, we'll talk Mike Ilich buying the Detroit Pistons. I'm sure we'll have plenty to say about Ilitch possibly stretched too thin, the future of the Palace, and the odds we'll see a new arena, holding both the Red Wings and Pistons, in downtown Detroit. We'll also talk more about the Red Wings and Pistons, but about their on court/ice activities. Topics will include: Pistons: The team lost SF/PF Jonas Jerebko for the season in their 1st exhibition game, we'll discuss the fallout. Red Wings: Off to a 2-0 start, what the future holds for Kirk Maltby, and Mike Babcock agreeing to a 4 year contract extension. Time permitting, we'll discuss the whipping MSU game U of M in Ann Arbor Saturday, and what the rest of the season may hold for the state's pair of Big 10 teams. At the end of the podcast, we'll also name our respective Jerk of the Week! Be here at 7PM every Monday night for the latest and greatest in sports talk...sports talk with a Detroit attitude!
