Chicago Cubs, The World Series, MSU Men's Basketball Opener, Todd Duckett, Rivalry Week and Dan Gilbert Donation.

The World Series is in full force currently, with the Chicago Cubs having evened up the tally to one game apiece following the 5-1 outlasting of the Cleveland Indians. Current Sports intern and the biggest local Cubs fan, David Greenberg, is in for a short breakdown of the series. Then, an unexpected visit from MSU legend Todd Duckett prompts Al and engineer Isaac Constans to discuss football a day early and unveil the plans for the first ever WKAR tailgate on Friday's show. Afterwards, Al and Isaac talk about the magnitude of MSU alumnus and Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert's donation of $15 million to the school and the athletic program. And before tomorrow's tailgate, it's a little MSU basketball preview to complete the show.
