Bears fans and Chicagoans need to look south two hours to find a new team – Da Colts – and hometown
October 27, 2020
October 27, 2020
Being a Bears fan was tough back in the day. Every year, it was the same old thing – I would talk about Bobby Douglass, Wally Chambers, and Cecil Turner, and Dad would shake his head like I was a dopey little kid. He was right. I was a dopey, pie-eyed loon who bought into […]
Top eight truths about sports, media, and the unholy convergence of the two
June 1, 2016
June 1, 2016
One of my favorite axioms is that all people are idiots. Sad, but true. None of us knows enough about life to understand what the hell we are doing here. Some people achieve financial wealth, some experience a spiritual awakening, and others know that being nice to everyone they meet provides more happiness than any […]

April 19, 2016
April 19, 2016
Indianapolis Colts general manager Ryan Grigson takes a lot of heat over the 2013 trade for running back Trent Richardson, and rightly so. The deal was a complete bust. That’s looking at it through the rearview mirror, which is a luxury afforded to critics. On the front end, this appeared to be a pretty good […]
NFL Combine – What Did We Learn – and Does It Mean a Damn Thing?
February 25, 2014
February 25, 2014
by Kent Sterling The NFL Scouting Combine continues to exist, I suspect, because it always has existed and the coaches enjoy eating shrimp at St. Elmo’s and dancing at Ike and Jonesy’s. Players come to town to run and cut, throw and catch, and answer some very personal questions to gauge their ability to handle […]
Mixed Bag of Sports: Thawing Out From the Week
January 25, 2014
by Bert Beiswanger I’ve got various sports topics from this week in-hand. It’s time to address them before they melt in my clutch (a nod to the creative geniuses Rankin and Bass and their popular character, Heat Mizer -and a wish that warmer days were ahead). It’s Miller George Time! Yes, I somehow stayed up […]
Indianapolis Colts 2013 Preview – Six Questions Must Be Answered for Colts to Return to Playoffs

by Kent Sterling The Colts have added a lot of pieces to their roster, so GM Ryan Grigson didn’t make the mistake of falling in love with the magical 11-5 record posted in 2012. Click here to follow Kent on Twitter Prior to the Colts doing it in 2012, no team in NFL history won […]
Tim Tebow Released; Jets Figure Out What Merril Hoge Always Knew
April 29, 2013
April 29, 2013
by Kent Sterling Only one back-up quarterback in NFL history could claim a breaking news alert on ESPN for his release, and it happened today with Tim Tebow. The New York Jets cut ties with Tebow this morning, and the coverage is just short of the death of a former president. The Jets drafted Geno […]
NFL Draft – St. Louis Rams Kill Day One – Get the Right Guys at the Right Spots
April 26, 2013
April 26, 2013
by Kent Sterling One thing Rams fans know for sure is that Rams GM Les Snead and coach Jeff Fisher aren’t concerned with where the NFL decides they should choose in the first round. Last year, they traded down twice to wind up at #14 where they took DT Michael Brockers, and this year they […]

by Kent Sterling For seven weeks, I’ve been a St. Louisan as the program director of 101 ESPN – one of the best sportstalk radio stations in America. This is the first move my family has made in 18 years, and the first time as bona fide adults. There is a lot to know, and […]
