The Knee Jerks - Eno and Big Al - Red Wings broadcaster Ken Kal
Long-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!\n\n\nThis week's podcast features a very special guest - Detroit Red Wings radio play-by-play man Ken Kal, the voice of hockey in Detroit for the past 2 decades. We talk to Ken about his life in broadcasting, the ins and outs of play-by-play and touch on the latest Red Wings news.\n\n\nIn the second half of the show, we deep dive into the latest Red Wings, Tigers and Lions news.\n\n\nTopics include:\nKen Holland and the Detroit Red Wings release their expansion draft protected list, raising questions about the future of their surprisingly unprotected number 1 goalie, Petr Mrazek.The Detroit Tigers have issues with their frustrated fan base and in the standings, while playing the victim in the media as Fox Sports Detroit adds to a toxic mix. Meanwhile, K-Rod complains to the media about his role (but can't back up his talk) and Victor Martinez is hospitalized.The Detroit Lions lose left tackle Taylor Decker 4-6 months due to a shoulder injury, and scramble to temporarily fill the position via the open market.\n\n\nAs always, Eno and Big Al also play The Birthday Game and name their Jerk of the Week!
