Detroit sports, argued at the family table.
Two brothers and a dad, weekly(ish) since 2023, and Dad will absolutely mispronounce a name.
Five teams. One family. Zero consensus.
Where we stand right now, straight from the latest episodes.
Lions
"Where is the grit in this team?" The defense once again didn't show up, so is MCDC the problem? (Ep 83)
Tigers
Skubal is gone (Ep 79) and the season is "essentially over." Is this a Chris Ilitch problem? (Ep 80)
Pistons
"Easily our best team right now." Jalen Duren re-signed, and we like where this is going. (Ep 83)
Red Wings
"Continue to be a clown show," and the season starts without a GM. (Ep 83)
Michigan
Bryce or Jason Beck: who is more to blame for the offense? Can Whittingham dig himself out? (Ep 83)
Episode 84: A change always helps
The Lions came out fired up against the Cardinals last week, is this a sign of positive progress or just a bad opponent? Will having Cade Mays and potentially Brian Branch back make a huge impact? Should Sam LaPorta...

Meet the family.
Two brothers, Dad, and more and more often, Mom. Special appearance: Uncle Bruce (Ep 31).
Dad
The tagline's promise: he will absolutely mispronounce a name. Names "a bunch of old guys no one has heard of" (Ep 10) and won the family fantasy league (Ep 45).
Mom
First joined in Parents Know Best (Ep 13). Knits and talks sports movies (Ep 14), and has stumped the boys at 20 Questions (Ep 58).
Brett
A secret Swiftie, who knew (Ep 10). Almost got his brother to drink the Honolulu Blue Kool-Aid (Ep 15) and invented Leaders, Dawgs, and Duds (Ep 20).
Craig
Runs the feed and writes the show notes. Keeps the pessimistic Lions takes coming (Ep 8) and goes full "get off my lawn" when the mood strikes (Ep 5).
