NBA Opening Day, World Series Game One, Trey Burke, University of Michigan Basketball, Dan Boggan, MHSAA Playoffs and Detroit Pistons Basketball.

Were you watching baseball or basketball last night? Either way, Current Sports has you covered. Al hits on both, giving his takeaways from day one of the NBA and day one of the World Series. Then, Al and engineer Isaac Constans are seriously talking about University of Michigan's cafeteria food, but only because former guard Trey Burke complained about it first. Extending his grievances to the larger issue of student-athlete treatment, the topic swells into bigger matters. Then, head coach of the Lansing Sexton football team Dan Boggan  is in the studio to discuss his team's playoff chances and the responsibility that he bears as the only Lansing team in this year's playoffs. Finally, Al and Isaac use the ending minutes to predict the upcoming Detroit Pistons' season.
