| 0:00.0 | All right, so we're asking the simple question. |
| 0:03.9 | Has the Detroit Lions and the love that you have for them taken away your love for college football, whether it's Michigan or Michigan State? |
| 0:12.6 | You want another one? |
| 0:13.7 | Yeah. |
| 0:14.1 | Evan just said something. |
| 0:15.1 | So what do we have to hide? |
| 0:18.4 | There are two other factors. |
| 0:20.5 | And you can be a fan of this team or a hater of them. |
| 0:23.4 | I think it plays in. |
| 0:25.4 | Michigan's cheating, impacted people. |
| 0:28.2 | I have friends who like Michigan. |
| 0:29.8 | They don't like them the same way. |
| 0:32.0 | I didn't get a single text about the game this year. |
| 0:34.6 | And if you're a Michigan State fan, well, when your team... |
| 0:37.6 | So self-induced. Right. The best play MSU runs is the one where they forcefully try to shove their head up their own ass. Interesting. So when you... Yeah, can you bet on that? You can. You can. It's called every third down. But no, like, those two factors hurt college football locally too. Who are we kidding? If you're a state fan, you watch Michigan get away with it. You're a Michigan fan. Everything you staked your fake reputation on, that's all gone. You're not holier than now. You're not better than anybody. You're not the leaders and best. You're cheating and filth. Which is, I mean, if you're not cheating, you're not trying. I get that. But my whole point is that impacts people. With the Lions, we don't have to worry about any of that crap. It is pay to play. And they play real well. No, you're right. So, yeah, with the two college teams kind of shooting themselves in the foot for various reasons, that could have taken away from a minute. I just wonder, but I do think when you have a great NFL team, it is very hard. If you have that block of time once a week, you're busting your ass, you've got a couple of kids, you're paying your mortgage. Yeah, you know what's getting left at the roadside? College football. I'm going to watch the lines. At least I know what I'm getting. |
| 1:44.6 | Maybe that's why it just means more in the SEC. Well, I'm telling you. I don't think a lot of people are big Falcons fans. Tell Gretch, we need her to talk about Jonathan Smith, like the Louisiana governor. Yeah, Falcons, Panthers, yeah. 2, 4-8, 53977. let's go to Matt 971. |
| 2:01.8 | Maddie, what's going on, buddy? |
| 2:03.9 | Yeah, I think you guys... Yeah. 248, 5, 3997.97. Let's go to Matt 971. |
| 2:01.8 | Maddie, what's going on, buddy? |
| 2:03.8 | Yeah, I think you guys have hit on a lot of stuff, but I think it started earlier than the Lions getting good. |
| 2:08.5 | I mean, the Lions getting good really helped out, but I think the NIL killed the biggest continuity we used to have in the state, which was our head coaches. |
