Calvin Johnson says Lions had pieces to win a Super Bowl
The Detroit Lions are one of four current NFL teams to never appear in a Super Bowl. In the mind of Calvin Johnson, though, that should've ended in 2014. On Thursday afternoon, the now-Pro Football Hall of Famer appeared on Big D Energy to discuss his career, his cannabis company, Primitiv, and his former quarterback, Matthew Stafford. When discussing his tenure with the Lions, Johnson spoke about the 2014 team
Keep Miguel Cabrera around even after reaching his milestones
The Detroit Tigers honored slugger Miguel Cabrera Friday night during a hug-fest that celebrated 500 career home runs and a great run for the Tigers. Next year comes with another celebration, as Cabrera guns for his 3,000th career hit. My initial thought was for the Tigers to send Cabrera packing as soon as he reached that milestone. Because Miggy is not what he used to be. And
Western Kentucky Passing Game Could Pose an Issue For Michigan State Defense
"The opponent changes, but the standard remains the same." That was the message Michigan State Head Coach Mel Tucker gave his players while preparing to play Youngstown State two weeks ago. His football team would end up winning by four touchdowns en route to becoming 2-0. That mantra will likely remain the same as the Spartans welcome another, somewhat weaker team, to East Lansing in the form
Dan Campbell believes in his roster despite 0-3 start to the season
The beginning of the Dan Campbell tenure with the Detroit Lions has gotten off to a rough start. Firstly, key players are inactive as they are battling injuries. Taylor Decker, Ifeatu Melifonwu, Tyrell Williams, and Trey Flowers have all missed at least one game. Not to forget, Jeff Okudah suffered an Achilles injury during Week 1 that will sideline him for the entire season. Secondly, the Lions
Michigan State Overcomes Sluggish Second Half, Beats Nebraska in Overtime
"We haven't played our best football yet this season, but we remain in the left hand column." Mel Tucker had a lot of praise for his football team in his postgame press conference. Despite what was for the most part an ugly, blood-bath style Big Ten game, Michigan State and Nebraska came down to an exciting finish. If you were told pregame that the only Spartan first
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson misses practice with sore hip
There's an interesting development brewing before the Lions vs. Ravens game on Sunday. And it's surrounding the health of Lamar Jackson. Jonas Shaffer from The Baltimore Sun reports that Jackson was one of five players not present Thursday at Ravens practice. He said his hip was sore on Wednesday after his flip into the endzone during the Ravens' 36-35 victory over the Chiefs. The other four players
How Jayden Reed is Bringing Michigan States Offense to the Next Level
This past week, Michigan State Spartan Vision released a feature piece on MSU wide receiver, Jayden Reed. Spartan Vision is a highly decorated, media production company for Michigan State Athletics They produce a weekly documentary series called "Spartans All-Access."

Ford Field will never catch the lore of Lambeau Field
Monday afternoon was my first time visiting Lambeau Field. I was in town covering the Lions vs. Packers Monday Night Football game for Woodward Sports. After hearing so many crazy stories about Packers fans, I didn't know what to expect about my trip. Are they rude? How do people from Green Bay treat Detroiters? And even though I am a Lions beat writer, would these cheese heads still give me
Report: Lions will look to trade Jamie Collins
Dan Campbell has a quick trigger. If he sees something he doesn't like, he addresses it immediately. Proof of that is the latest news surrounding Lions linebacker Jamie Collins. According to his sources, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport is reporting that the Lions are exploring trade options for the ten-year vet. It should come as no surprise following Campbell's Tuesday press conference. After a poor showing in the
Mike’s Tigers vs White Sox Series Recap [Video]
The Detroit Tigers had their homestand with the Chicago White Sox cut short today due to rain - so I gave my recap of what's technically a series win for Detroit - until the makeup game on Monday
Anthony Gose is Back in the Big Leagues
Occasionally, I'll think of Anthony Gose. It usually goes something like this in my brain: He was that guy who got shipped to Toronto for Devon Travis, right? I would've loved Devon Travis on this team. Good hitter - got hurt a lot, though. Gose was supposed to be the next Austin Jackson. He hit super bad but was kind of fast. I literally cannot remember a
Aaron Jones, Packers demolish the Lions defense in epic fashion
"When it rains, it pours" is the best quote to describe how the Lions lost to the Packers on Monday night. For three-quarters, Dan Campbell's team resembled one that fans could get behind. They appeared to have some fight left in the tank after their finish against the 49ers. Whether it was a great week of practice or feeling themselves in the new all-white uniforms, the Lions
