in this episode: - they not like us - msu is now a true contender to be maryland’s most hated program - how is this group a top five defensive team in the country - bench talk, but not the players… new coach shout-outs - previewing the banner week ahead podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

This Michigan State team has me to the point of not watching to criticize their flaws, but to enjoy trusting that they have it in them to continue overcoming them

in this episode: - separating serious from unserious - Illini: gift that keeps on giving - Purdue a 2 man show, neither have gigantism - fun in Ann Arbor, looking forward to 1 (2? 3?!) more - terp & badger preview + adds to “teams we don’t wanna see” list podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Me, to my dog right before opening the backdoor so he can chase off rabbits

MSU women’s team goes up against two of the sport’s giants this week, one tipping off now vs (soon not to be) #1 UCLA. I’m very interested to see how far Robyn Fralick has to go in her build.

Carson Cooper always seems to be first to the floor for Michigan State. Thrilled with the effort but it shouldn’t be this way.

St. John’s is so back which is very cool as a John

Michigan State looks like the softer team today

Frankie Fidler minutes aka “grime time”

MSU’s young backcourt better adjust to the contact quickly because this is how it goes in big boy games

in this episode: - where does MSU fit in the “$20MM+ roster wins a nat” era - Wally the dog shares enthusiasm early and often - Illinois hoop fans unknowingly express exactly why they’re unserious - how far away is MSU from being “raise banner(s)” serious? podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

As a Lions fan, I want the Chiefs in the Super Bowl. I am seeking the smoke.

in this episode: - ranking our hate - moments of the CFP that made us laugh - reflecting on our Welsh-Ryan field trip - how many more hoops wins until we take them seriously - realistic ceiling and how they get there - B1G hoops hot sear szn is heating up podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Big thank you to the @vikings.social for being an elite pace setter for the @detroitlions.bsky.social through the first 20 miles of the marathon.

Feels like MSU will need to be 9-1 to position themselves for a Big Ten title run. 9/10 to finish the year against Quad 1 opponents.

MSU beat Ohio State without meaningful contributions from Richardson or Fidler. I think/hope they are able to adjust to B1G road environments as they get more experience and the Spartans can hit an even higher gear.

Kerby Joseph might be one of them ones

Jason Candle deserves the call up to the bigs this off-season

I wanna get hammered drunk and attempt to become the best in the world at something extremely specific Guinness employee: You’re never gonna believe this

Spent my Holiday party with the only other Lions fan at the company drink by drink talking ourselves back into winning the Super Bowl despite 22 guys on IR

I don’t think I’ve ever seen Jase Richardson make the “wrong” decision

Up 16 and yelling in the huddle, Michigan State hoops ARE SO BACK

Ben Johnson goes on yearly ayahuasca retreat to create new football plays

MSU men’s hoops will move up to ~#15 in polls tomorrow. Perfect timing for Izzo’s “fat and sassy” speech headed into the Holidays.

in this episode: - year zero ends and the honeymoon period is very over with Jonathan Smith - game by game CFP preview - enjoying that there are CFP coaches on the hot seat - hoops bounces back, but is the program back? Reasons to believe and reasons for concern podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

F*ck it. Carr down there somewhere.

MSU hoops should (needs to) be 11-2 going into full Big Ten play, and I’m still going to feel veeeery bubbly

Coen Carr is possessed

🚨 🚨 🚨 JADEN AKINS ATTACKING THR RIM NOT SETTLING AND GETTING FREE THROWS 🚨 🚨 🚨 THIS IS NOT A DRILL

in this episode: - naming names by game seven in hoops, a pod record - sad football wins are still football wins - preparing for a “program trajectory inflection point game” vs rutger - do we need a college football NIT for all the SEC teams to participate podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

I guess UConn just can’t handle these high profile tournaments 🤷‍♂️

Anthony Richardson will be sore for the first time in his life tomorrow.

Anthony Richardson is the strongest Quarterback of all time. Absolute unit.

David Montgomery YOU 🫵 have the Angry Run of the week

MSU fans like myself need to recalibrate and realize: - this team hit the over on vegas W/L - has a chance to extend the season - has QB with the physical attributes to succeed AND has grown to “zero backbreaking mistakes” per game - we know which position coaches need to go Things are on schedule.
