Bears Week, Lions Reality Check & Detroit Sports Firestorms

About this episode

Sean Baligian goes all in on Bears Week, explaining why his hatred for Chicago runs deep and why Lions fans need to calm down after a tough opener. From the irreplaceable loss of Frank Ragnow to the questions around Jared Goff, Sean lays out why this season was always going to be more arduous—and why 12-5 is still on the table.

Along the way, he takes shots at Scott Harris for his “privilege” comments about the Tigers, revisits childhood jealousy of the ’85 Bears, and sparks debates over the greatest quarterbacks of all time. Plus, stories of neighborhood “Team B” fandom, the unwritten rules of foul balls, and why Billy Sims deserves more love in Detroit history.

It’s a passionate, unfiltered mix of football, baseball, and nostalgia—topped off with Sean’s trademark humor and plenty of “F the Bears.”
