5:21 am
house. so it was rejected. now, he is appealing. >> you want to shake somebody's lap el and say get real. of all the things we have to worry about is the county bureaucracy. so as he did with building the tree house, mark grapin is looking at the battle with bureaucrats as another lesson for his boy. he says he will follow the law to try to make this work legally but he is going to put up a fight. >> it is a hard breaker. you hope that, at the end of the day, this is a happy end to this movie and john wayne gets to step up and kiss the girl, or at least go down the slide. >> the appeal hearing is november 30th, if the county says it has to come down, he says he will hire day laborers to take a saw to it. a classroom becomes an animal attraction but it is one that sends teachers screaming and puts the building on lockdown. find out what this is all about

morning news and put the comment under lisa's lovely photo. dramatic win for the caps. the lions make it five in a row on monday night football and the nba officially losing some games now. the sports junkies join us from 106.7 the fan. >> h., steve. >> let's talk a little nba. these guys are not getting along. >> they are miles apart. i guess after the failed negotiations over last day or so, they decided to cancel the first two weeks and it is funny because nobody cares. with the nfl, they chance eled the hall of fame game and people were panic stricken. they canceled two weeks of the regular season and nobody cares. >> you have games canceled through november 14th. i would guess you won't see games until mid, maybe even late december right around christmas time unless they can get something done in the next few days. david stern is talking tough. he said every day that goes by, means we'll shorten more of the season. so it is not looking good. >> it could go bound beyond that.

i heard doug fisher who i guess is the president of the union say the players are prepared to miss the entire season so they're digging in. >> hopefully, they can help them to survive the season without getting paid. >> the nba players are historically so good with their money especially whether this is noncumming in. >> financial management, upper level class there. something that you don't expect is the detroit lions to be 5-0. to me, this means finally a reason to watch football on thanksgiving. >> and they play. you know who they play? green bay. >> the green bay packers. that is an amazing match-up for thanksgiving day. so all these people who have been complaining i have to watch the lions on thanksgiving, it finally pays off. >> there is the potential, i know it is way early, for both of those teams to be 10-0 when they meet. >> the year that calvin johnson is having. he now has nine touchdowns in five games.
5:56 am
he'll have over 20 touch downs at this pace. >> you have the lions at 5-0. and the bills at 4-0 and the redskins at 3-1. are they at an equal level of the bills and lions. >> i don't think they are in that class quite yet. i think defensively they might be. offensively, rex is still there. we know he is a jekyll and hyde kind of character. defensively, we are third in the heying in points allowed. i think that will be our calling card. the redskins will have to rely on the running game and they had you had shod do this this sunday against an eagles team who is 30th worst in the league against stopping a run. -- and they should do that this sunday against an eagles team who is 30th worst in the league against topping a run.
5:57 am
>> the washington capitals 2-2 in the overtime thrillers. off to a great start. >> we thought we would bring in the new goalie, he would be fantastic. very shaky through the first periods. very solid in overtime. >> he was shaky in the first three shows. one, opening night jitters is what i have to hope and two, this is probablyity first meaningful game he has played in his entire nhl career considering he played for the florida panthers and the national predators before they became a playoff team. now, they actually count. hopefully, he steadies himself after last night and is better going forward. >> he said after the game that he felt bad for his performance. the thing about it, i think we're microanalyzing it. it is a nice start but ultimately with the capitals team, it is all about how they do in the post-season. >> the first 82 games don't matter that much.
5:58 am
>> they get the penguins with next. the dirty awful pittsburgh penguins. >> i know how much you love them. we'll see you again tomorrow morning. >> we'll be right back.
