All right, we're going to get to the phones, knock out these calls, move on from the Michigan, Michigan State thing. We've talked a little bit about the wings. I do have an update to the insanity of college sports at large. I just want to lob this out there for Rico and you guys at large to tell me I'm a boomer. I don't get it. And then five o'clock, we're going to bring up the Pistons because hope is over.

Expectations are here.

I want to know what yours are as they tip off tonight.

We'll go to Chris, though, next, 971.

Chris, what's going on, pal?

You know, doing all right here, O2 Spartan alum, so go green.

You know, I think that what it comes down to is the rivalry is always going to be there for me as an alum,

but like the game is not the rivalry anymore.

It used to be, but where we are right now in the state of things, that game is only going to be there

if both teams are competitive

and able to be good. And that is it. If they can't get there, then that rivalry isn't going

to be there. I'm not going to like you of them to beat me in anything because I'm a Spartan through

and through, but that game can't be what it should be because of the state of the game across the nation.

Yeah, you know, Chris, it's interesting.

Like, if you go back, I harken, Rico.

But, like, Chris, go back to Kirk Cousins.

You remember his speech at Big Ten, you know, after beating Michigan, and he's given

interviews on this?

Like, Kirk Cousins will never exist again, where he's homegrown and he developed

and he ends up, you know, beating Michigan multiple times, and it meant something to him.

The game doesn't mean anything to any of these people anymore.

No, and I think that we can even see that in the coach, which is why we need this change so bad,
