Michigan State Men's Basketball; University of Michigan Men's Basketball; Tom Izzo Press Conference; Tyler Parsons; General Manager of Lansing Lugnuts; Tiger Woods 

On today's "Current Sports with Al Martin" we continue conversation centered on the NCAA Tournament! Yes, bracketology is in full effect, as you strive to fill-out the perfect bracket in your respective pools. Al elaborates on what Tom Izzo, head coach of the Michigan State men's basketball team, had to say during his press conference at the Breslin Center. Izzo told of what makes the Bucknell Bison a dangerous first round matchup. We tell you who the three players are that you need to keep an eye on if MSU wants to pull out the victory. 

Next, we invite the General Manager of the Lansing Lugnuts to the show; Tyler Parsons. Parsons tells of the 13 new promotional giveaways, which include honoring late MSU football player Mike Sadler. Also, the Lugnuts have their own vodka that will be sold this season! How did the idea come about? 

The show ends with Al praising the play of Tiger Woods this past weekend at the Valspar Championship in Florida. He dares to say... "TIGER IS BACK!" 

That, and more, throughout this eventful hour.
