by Kent Sterling Always trying to be the clever guy who doesn’t have the wait in line, I ran over to the AT&T Store this morning to pick up a new iPhone 6. Why not the Apple Store at the Fashion Mall? Because I thought the rabble would head there, and who would think to […]
by Kent Sterling Bad news for NFL commissioner Roger Goodell rolled in again yesterday as Heisman Trophy winning quarterback Jameis Winston was suspended by Florida State for the first half of Saturday’s game against Clemson for jumping on a table and screaming “F**k her right in the p***y!” Goodell is hiding under his desk while […]
Dear Roger – Hey, it could be worse! At least you didn’t knock your wife unconscious or make your son’s scrotum bleed. Feel better? You seemed like a good guy in the beginning – someone willing to hold people accountable for their behavior because it was the right thing to do. Sadly, you have been […]

by Kent Sterling First, the good news – veteran broadcaster Steve Simpson has been hired to inform and inspire Minnesotans at heritage news/talk WCCO in the Twin Cities. The bad news for Indianapolis radio listeners is that Simpson will be doing the thing in Minnesota that he has done so well here for the last […]
by Kent Sterling What in the hell goes on in the minds of young men with 895,000 twitter followers when they decide to tweet whatever idiocy pops into their minds early in the morning. Indiana Pacers forward Paul George decided to weigh in on the Ray Rice issue this morning, has pulled the offensive tweets, […]
by Kent Sterling When people are comfortable telling only part of the truth, trouble ensues. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell went seriously old school politician yesterday during an interview with CBS News Norah O’Donnell, who did a more than credible job in asking the right questions. Goodell tried to appear earnest while dodging, dipping, and ducking. […]
by Kent Sterling The video was horrifying. Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice throws a left cross, and Janay Palmer is knocked unconscious. Rice waits patiently for the elevator to open, drags her limp body into the lobby, and retrieves her shoe. We have all seen it – or should, and those who saw the […]
