The Lions made some drastic cuts right before showtime, so we talk the loss of Burleson and Delmas.  The Pistons also dropped the axe on Mo Cheeks, proving that they have no idea what's going on. We also yak about the Olympics, Derek Jeter retiring... oh, and pitchers and catchers have begun to report to spring training, so we preview the AL East.

It's the Super Bowl and you wouldn't believe the things that people can bet on in Vegas. Greg and I make our picks on some conventional, and otherwise, prop bets. We also pick who wins the game, as if it matters. Before all that, we talk baseball and the results of the most recent Harris Favorite Sport Poll.

The Winter Classic was a fantastic experience, something I will never forget. Pictures below. Greg would sit out in 0 degree weather for a playoff game at Lambeau, Sparty wins the Rose Bowl, and we narrow down candidates for the Lions newly found head coaching vacancy.

Winter Classic pictures:

 The outside of Michigan Stadium shortly before Spectator Plaza opened to the public.

The view from the Red Wings radio booth. My favorite part of the whole atmosphere was the  half blue, half red crowd. Coming in, I expected a fair amount of Leafs fans, but I wasn't expecting the 50/50 crowd split down the middle of the stadium. Made for an atmosphere that reminded me of a major college bowl game, but with hockey. So it was better than that.

The Wings radio booth was right next to the CBC set, so I had to creep on Don Cherry during Coach's Corner.

Greg said this was the coolest shot I took. This was about an hour after the game. I thought the blizzard added a nice touch.
