Hi Big Al here!  Yes, the same Big Al who appeared for :14 seconds on an episode of “Detroit 1-8-7” a couple of Tuesdays ago.  But hey, it’s not about ME today!…  

By popular demand (actually, nobody demanded it, we just thought it was a good idea), and as promised, we now present an encore presentation of “Good Morning Ferndale” with our friend, the Dean of Ferndale broadcasters – Howard Binkpaltonakowski.  Several years ago Howard interviewed Eric Jordan, one of our brightest and best interns, regarding the rock group Weezer.  Well, Weezer is back in the news!

Former Weezer fan James Burns has started an online fundraiser at ThePoint.com to raise $10 million to pay the indie rockers to break up.  He claims that Weezer hasn’t made a good album since their second and he’s not going to take it anymore!  James pleads:  “I beg you, Weezer, take our money and disappear.” 

Weezer drummer Patrick Wilson said if he’ll make it $20 million, “we’ll do the deluxe breakup.”  But so far, the site’s raised only $194.  

Frankly, I think people would rather donate their money to a really worthwhile cause, like paying Lady GaGa not to make any more records.  

And why donate to this cause when the Village People are still out there singing somewhere? 

To be honest, we’re STILL WEEZER FANS!  And after this walk down Memory Lane with Howard a and his in-depth look at “Weezer”, you too will be back in the WEEZER CAMP!!!

Good Morning Ferndale and Weezer!  

THANKS HOWARD!  

And now, on to the  BIG GAME at the BIG HOUSE at 3:30 this Saturday in Ann Arbor! MICHIGAN versus MICHIGAN STATE!  And this time around there’s a lot more on the line than just some territorial pride. 

Both teams are undefeated at 5-0 and want to remain atop the Big 10 standings.  Can Kirk Cousins lead the Spartans to a third straight win over MSU’s biggest rival?  Will Wolverine’s QB Denard Robinson run through Michigan State faster than a bad burrito? Click on the fight song of your choice and get ready for some FOOTBALL!!!   (In the interest of fairness, I flipped a coin to see which fight song would be listed first.  I gave the Wolverines “heads”.  And the coin flip winner was…
