Episode 44: I'm basically Mike McDaniels

Author: Craig Hutcheon August 29, 2024 Duration: 1:16:19

We discus the last Lions preseason game and what we think overall about the state of the Detroit Lions heading into the regular season.


We talk about what time of coach you'd rather be coached by.

The Tigers have started having a but of success, how do we feel about the trajectory they're on and Brett asks who our Tiger will be in 3 years.

And Ohio State sucks, that is all.

The Motown Family Sports Rant is a weekly dose of Detroit sports conversation straight from the living room. Hosted by Craig Hutcheon alongside his two sons, this podcast captures the unfiltered, often hilarious dynamic of a family deeply invested in the fortunes-and frequent misfortunes-of their hometown teams. You’ll hear three generations dissect the Lions, Tigers, Red Wings, and Pistons with a mix of passionate analysis, generational perspectives, and the kind of heated debate that only relatives can have. The tone is less polished sports radio and more like eavesdropping on a kitchen table argument after a tough loss or an unexpected win. While knowledge and strong opinions are plentiful, so is the inevitable good-natured ribbing, especially when dad confidently butchers a player’s name. It’s this authentic, chaotic, and heartfelt family chemistry that defines every episode. Tune in for the sports talk, but stay for the relatable family moments, the shared history of Michigan fandom, and the genuine laughter that comes from knowing your co-hosts will never let you forget a bad take. This is a podcast for anyone who understands that sports are as much about the people you watch them with as the games themselves.
