Episode 49: Goff is perfect and the Tigers are back!

Author: Craig Hutcheon October 4, 2024 Duration: 1:28:48

The Tigers swept the Texans (Astros)!

We start by giving out thoughts on the series, and what this means for the Tigers moving forward. Will Chris Ilitch finally open his checkbook now?

The Lions had an exciting win against the Seahawks on MNF. Are we concerned about the lack of consistency on offense and defense?

Michigan snuck past Minnesota and QB continues to be an issue. How do we think they will fare for the rest of the season, and how is Sherrone Moore doing as a coach after 5 games.


I pick the athlete for 20 questions.

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.
