Welcome to No Filter Sports Podcast with Bob Page and Denny McLain!

• “Write what you know:” the author’s mantra. And few know Detroit and its teams better than author TOM STANTON, our guest!
• Matthew Stafford TRADED! You’d expect the feckless Detroit sports media to love the FLs’ Big Deal — and BOB to be a skeptic.
• Can’t we please just play the damn game?! Still MORE Super Bowl hype all week for us. Are you Super BORED yet?
• In a crazy sports year few things could be crazier than Tom Izzo not making the NCAA Tournament field.
• Yet come to think of it, what could be crazier than MICHIGAN supplanting Tom’s MSU program so quickly?!
• NCAA basketball is “modern-day slavery,” huh? It isn’t if the “slaves” would only take advantage of a FREE education.
• The Wings’ LATEST skid is six games. Brandon McAfee says firing Jeff Blashill wouldn’t make a diff. Bob disagrees.
• Yet maybe our young producer is right about this too since Bob seems to be coming around on Bonds and Clemens as HOFers.
• Curt Schilling as well? Yes? Just think what this whacko might SAY standing on the podium at Cooperstown!
• Denny was off today. Wonder what he’d say about the Brewers hiring an ex-GIRLS SOFTBALL PLAYER as a hitting coach?
• Those stories, our necrology featuring a Detroit Tigers boyhood hero, YOUR mailbag and much more — right here!
