This week's episode: great chat with Ray Scott!!

In case you missed it, the Jerks had yet another spirited, informative discussion about the Pistons with former coach and player Ray Scott on Monday. But never fear; the beauty of podcasts is that you never really miss anything.

So here's the link to the episode with Coach Scott.

Eno and Big Al covered a lot with Coach---Andre Drummond/Greg Monroe; the importance of a full training camp this year; the roles of veterans like Tayshaun Prince, Rodney Stuckey and Jason Maxiell; the development of Brandon Knight; and much more.

After Coach, the Jerks talked Tigers and their disappointing World Series performance, and a little bit of hockey.

Of course, there was "Whose Birthday Is It?" and "Jerk of the Week."

Enjoy!!!

Tonight's show: Paula Pasche, Lions beat writer!


We're back after taking a week off due to Big Al's Bless You Boys duties taking precedence last week.

We have a terrific guest for you tonight: Paula Pasche, who is the Lions beat writer for the Oakland Press.

As an added bonus, during the interview Paula will also be answering four questions sent in by four lucky listeners, who will win a copy of her new book, 100 Things Lions Fans Should Know and Do Before They Die.

Those four listeners are: David Bark from Hamtramck; Daniel Welling from Chelsea; Prince Elia from West Bloomfield; and Tim Lillis from Kentwood. Congrats, guys! A copy of Paula's book is on its way to you this week!

After Paula's segment, the Jerks talk Tigers, and boy is there a lot to talk about! From the gut-wrenching ALDS to the sweep of the Yankees in the ALCS, and all the side stories that go with it, the Jerks are all over it!

There'll be a little U-M/MSU football talk, and of course, "Whose Birthday Is It?" and "Jerk of the Week."

It all starts at 7:00pm ET LIVE HERE.

Eno: It's been 25 years--forget John Smoltz already!




In his latest piece, Eno is frustrated with those who don't want the Tigers to trade prospect Nick Castellanos (above)---because of the John Smoltz/Doyle Alexander trade of 25 years ago.

Read why Eno feels the Tigers ought not be afraid to trade any prospect in the name of winning now, HERE.

Eno on Q: Let's not get carried away




Eno wrote what turned out to be a rather controversial piece over the weekend that ended up getting both praised and panned on Twitter and Bleacher Report (the panning mainly coming from the Twitter feed of Jeff Moss of the Detroit Sports Rag).

It's about Quintin Berry Mania, and why Eno feels the brakes need to be put on it. Keep in mind this was written BEFORE Berry's 5-for-5 day on Sunday!

Monday's Show: When to panic about the Tigers?

Monday night, Eno and Big Al went guest-less (in anticipation of next week's Anniversary Show Extravaganza) and tackled many issues.

First up was the Tigers and Big Al wondered: Is it time to panic? If not now, then when?

The Jerks ran the gamut, from Brandon Inge terrorizing his old teammates to the question of what to do with Ryan Raburn.

Then a couple of Detroit News columns got in the cross hairs: Terry Foster on the Tigers not having Placido Polanco, and Jerry Green crabbing about sabermetrics.

Big Al bemoaned the highly UNattractive Western Conference Finals in the NHL pitting Los Angeles against Phoenix.

For their Jerks of the Week, Big Al did a "reverse jerk" (listen to find out) and Eno went after a certain big-time university president.

Did Big Al correctly guess this week's Birthday Boy? Listen to find out!
