The Knee Jerks - Michael Zuidema of the Grand Rapids Press

The Knee Jerks, Greg Eno and Big Al Beaton, welcome Michael Zuidema of the Grand Rapids Press, who also writes The Benchwarmer blog for Mlive.com. With Michael we'll discuss the University of Michigan's hiring of Brady Hoke as their new head football coach and the fan/media fallout that followed.

At 7:30, Matt Hutter makes his bi-weekly visit to the podcast to talk all things Red Wings. (Matt's Red Wings Bleacher Report columns can be found here and is @MaHutter12 on Twitter.) Michael and Matt will spend the next half hour breaking down the latest Red Wings news, from the crazy rash of injuries, Nick Lidstrom being the only Wing to make the All-Star team and give their mid-season grades.

After the Red Wings roundtable, Eno and Al will move on the latest in Detroit sports, including the Tigers signing Brad Penny and Joel Zumaya, and the craziness going on with the Pistons, with Rip Hamilton's string of DNP-CD and Tayshaun Prince calling John Kuester's benching of Hamilton "buffoonery."

At the end of the podcast we'll also name our respective Jerk of the Week! Be here at 7PM every Monday night for the latest and greatest in sports talk...sports talk with a Detroit attitude!
