From Michigan to MLS // Detroit's big for NFL talent // Do Tigers City Connect jerseys connect?

Show notes

Today's show has a special guest in Michigan native Steve Clark, goalkeeper for the Houston Dynamo in MLS.

Before that, there's a lot to talk about this Monday around sports and Metro Detroit, and Fletcher Sharpe is in to help do it.

02:58 - Do the new Tigers City Connect jerseys connect? Or are they a miss?
