On the eve of the 500th Current Sports with Al Martin, the 499th show is packed with two guests, and talk about the Tigers, University of Michigan, and the draft. First, Al and Isaac talk about whether the big bats of James McCann and Victor Martinez might have saved the Tigers' season. Then, Tyus Battle's decommitment from Michigan is discussed and Mark Snyder, Detroit Free Press reporter for U of M sports, weighs in on how the team looks for next year. Then, Tom Shanahan jumps in on the action to talk about his book, Raye of Light, about the 1965 champion MSU football team. Lastly, the show closes out to the tune of 'Weekend Winners'.
