The Knee Jerks: Eno and Big Al - Former Red Wing Bill Lochead

Published: Oct. 6, 2014, 11 p.m.

This week is a Detroit Red Wings-centric episode of The Knee Jerks, featuring an interview\xa0with former Wings forward\xa0Bill Lochead.\n\nBill spent four seasons with the Red Wings in the 1970's, best remembered for scoring two goals in Detroit's first round\xa0series deciding 3-2 game three victory over the Atlanta Flames at Olympia Stadium in 1977. His series winning goal is still fondly remembered by many Red Wing fans, including a young Eno and Big Al. Bill went on to play for the Rockies and Rangers before finishing his career in Europe, where he became a coach and eventually, a player agent.\n\nWe then dive into a Red Wings season preview with the 3rd Jerk,\xa0our Bleacher Report insider Matt Hutter. Matt gives his thoughts on the coming season, the team's ongoing youth movement and tells us if\xa0this team is playoff bound.\n\nIn the second half of the show, Eno and Big Al cover the Detroit Tigers getting swept out of the ALCS by the Baltimore Orioles, the mess that has become the University of Michigan football program, thanks to embattled AD Dave Brandon\xa0and struggling head coach Brady Hoke and discuss\xa0the Detroit Lions' loss to the Buffalo, thanks to three missed field goals.\n\nThere's all that and more, including "Whose Birthday Is It?" and our "Jerk of the Week!"\n\nLong-time Detroit sports bloggers and podcasters, Greg Eno(aka the man who knows a lot of things about a lot of things), and Big Al Beaton are The Knee Jerks! Eno and Big Al's podcast is released every Monday on the Sports Geeks Radio Network!
