RIP Prince.

A melancholy atmosphere surrounds today's show, as musician Prince Rogers Nelson, better known by the stage name Prince, passed away at the age of 57. Al and engineer Isaac Constans mourn the loss of a great artist and provide their best remembrances of him. Onto sports, the Detroit Pistons game two loss is dissected. Who's to blame for the Pistons' collapse, and what can be done to fix it? Al and Isaac also both decide that although the series seems a foregone conclusion, there is a positive takeaway. Then, Terry Kildea, director of marketing for Hawk Hollow Golf Properties, joins the show to talk everything golf, from the Masters to local tournaments, as the weather becomes more permitting. Finally, "Throwback Thursday" closes out the show, along with final thoughts on Prince.
