Pregame Ritual Radio show: bringing the michigan love

Submitted by touchdown chad henne on

Hey guys,

I'm a michigan grad who cohosts a sports talk show out here in San Francisco called the Pregame Ritual. My associate Winston and I go through the sports headlines every Tuesday morning (and even though it's San Francisco, I still end up bringing everything back to Michigan, as you'll hear).

We had a great episode today where I rip a little bit into the Izzo love , so I thought you guys might want to hear it. You can check it out here: http://bit.ly/bK0RKD.

Let me know what you think!

P.S. The first five minutes is boring news, so skip forward to when the music kicks in.

I'll listen later, but I'm very curious as to how you'll be ripping Izzo. Not much to rip on the guy about.

Can we please ban those 4 letters from this site now

I Z Z O?

Pirate radio is nice; it means no complying with FCC regs—but yes, also not sounding like a real station sometimes.

There was an Anthony Bourdain episode about it a little while back that you might recognize.

You can grab the other podcasts through there too, if you like. Go to DJ Schedule and click on Pregame Ritual. This was probably one of our strongest episodes so far. Sometimes we get a little too stoned.

you want to rip on Izzo, the (currently) most successful Division 1 football/B-Ball in the whole state?

There are people who deserve your scorn and then there are people who deserve your respect.

Izzo sucks! He's only been to the Final Four 6 out of the last 12 years and lost to Michigan twice in a decade! Fire him now! See how dumb that sounds. I can only imagine how you ripped him.

You rip Izzo the same way they ripped Bo. Bo got to the Rose Bowl quite a few times, but won few. Izzo's been to the Final Four 6 times and won once. What's that for a percentage?

guys, i'll own up. I introduced this the wrong way.

first of all, i'm from michigan, not san francisco. I'm not some cali DB ripping on the great midwest. i went to michigan, graduated in '08, and try to consider myself a michigan homer but not a DB about it.

second, i really just rip on the izzo love, but it's all in fun. part of it of course is being motivated by my love for michigan and how i feel the residual effects of sparty's success will hurt us. the other part is because i, like you, find it just detestable when ANYONE says something good about Sparty.

in sum, i just wanted to clue this board into my radio show. i introduced it in a stupid, sensationalistic manner that was unwise, and i apologize for that. there's no touching the guy.

trust me, you will probably like the show, though. winston and i are legit. i plan to move back to michigan and hope to bring a simi;ar vibe to a michigan radio station (if they'll have me).

i can see your tl;dr responses now.
