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

“How to be Miserable on $39 Million a Year.” If that’s not the title of JAMES HARDEN’s book someday, it SHOULD be!
The NBA’s chief malcontent engineers his own trade. Now he gets to play with K.D. AND the NBA’s chief knucklehead.
So many games canceled, so many Draconian new rules leave one NBA player asking, “Why even bother?”
COVID comes to Michigan sports as the Pistons miss out on another loss and MSU misses out on a likely butt-kicking!
“Butt-kicking?” Is there a term that goes beyond that? If so, you’d use it to describe the U of M’s ROUT of Wisconsin.
College football: The boys offer some thoughts on Monday night’s national title game in our first show since then.
Get ready to clean up because Denny’s gonna make his NFL playoff predictions. YOU’LL bet the other way, of course!
URBAN MEYER leaving his cushy broadcast gig and moving to the NFL? Bob has only one question: WHY?!

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

“Get Back Up!” The title of a book by BILLY TAYLOR and, boy, did he ever! The great U-M running back is our guest.
For ONCE — and hopefully the last time ever needed here — the boys DO do politics on the show.
The NFL Playoffs kick off this weekend. Our producer Brandon McAfee has a bold prediction for you!
Meanwhile, Tom Brady had a bold — and stupid — challenge from one of the league’s top young stars.
Did the Eagles actually tank that game against Washington Sunday? One thing’s sure: their players did not.
Michigan basketball is ROLLIN’ and fun to watch — so what a bad time to have to SIT thanks to COVID.
Of COURSE MSU alum Bob loves our former guest, Tom Izzo — but he still drives Bob nuts at times.
Is there potentially big news for Michigan State football? MAYBE.
The late, great Detroit sportscaster Al Ackerman was right: Detroit’s NBA team is indeed “The PP’s.”
The Tigers have landed free agent Robbie Grossman! FYI: he is NOT Jewish. FYI: he is NOT the answer.
And, desperate for revenue, can the Wings and the NHL be blamed much for what they’re about to do?
Those stories, YOUR mailbag and much more right here!
