by Kent Sterling There are a bunch of reasons the Indiana Pacers lost a very entertaining game to the Miami Heat to start the Eastern Conference Finals with a bang. Had the Pacers won this overtime thriller, there would have been many reasons for that. Paul George did some things really well, and other things […]
by Kent Sterling The folks at ESPN treated the Indiana Pacers like carbuncles through the series against the New York Knicks. Every Knicks loss was due to the Knicks making mistakes, and every win was earn because of the Knicks superior play. The Pacers might have been on the floor, but the effect they had […]
by Kent Sterling All you can do is all you can do, and by all accounts that’s what Indiana Men’s Basketball Coach Tom Crean did in his pursuit to snare five-star recruit Theo Pinson. The 6’6″, 180 lbs. wing committed to North Carolina today. He’s similar to Michael Jordan in more than appearance, although a […]
Coach Rick Venturi Calls the NFC West the Best Division in the NFL
by Kent Sterling There is no doubt that the St. Louis Rams have taken a quantum leap forward from where they were less than 18 months ago, but the 49ers and Seahawks haven’t been sitting on their hands either.

Theo Pinson Commitment Day – Highlight Reels Show Combination of Magic Johnson and Michael Jordan

Theo Pinson does things on the videos below that […]

When asked last night whether Garcia would invite Woods to dinner during the U.S. Open week next month, […]
Donald Davidson Remembers Wilber Shaw – Three-Time Indy 500 Champ, and the Man Who Saved the Speedway

With Wilbur Shaw, it’s not so tough. Shaw was a native Hoosier […]
By Kent Sterling The NFL voted to approve the stadium under construction in Santa Clara, CA, and Reliant Stadium in Houston as the hosts of Super Bowl L and LI, and that sets the roster through 2017. The two cities most discussed for 2018 are Indianapolis and New Orleans. That’s a testament to the […]
Indiana Basketball – Theo Pinson to Announce Wednesday at 12:15p, and He’s Special
by Kent Sterling Normally, I don’t give a damn where a 17 -ear-old chooses to attend college. It’s the kid’s decision, and whether he decides to head to Indiana, Duke, Kentucky, or SIU-Edwardsville is meaningless. College basketball isn’t the pros, and kids should be able to make this call without fanfare. Once they get to […]
