by Kent Sterling Bob Knight hasn’t been the head coach at Indiana in over 13 years. That means it’s unlikely any kid currently in high school can recall a time when the big man in the red sweater prowled the sidelines for the Hoosiers. But that doesn’t mean Knight isn’t still a figure looming over […]
Alex Rodriguez Might Be a Guilty Creep, But He’s Working the System Like a Pro – Just Like I Did
by Kent Sterling A-Rod has done what all guilty as hell reprobates should do, but many times don’t have the level of character bankruptcy necessary to pull off – he has taken complete control of the narrative. What he pulled yesterday in his arbitration hearing is eerily similar to Otter’s “Animal House” speech in front […]
by Kent Sterling Reporting on a story like the sexual assault investigation of Florida State quarterback and Heisman Trophy hopeful Jameis Winston is one of the many things the media does not do very well these days. We want the truth and we want it right the hell now! But the truth doesn’t always emerge […]
by Kent Sterling For almost 700 people who have built a career with the Tribune Company, yesterday was the day they and their families had dreaded. In sports, athletes get a visit from “the Turk” to tell them they have been cut. The deed in media is done by a manager accompanied by a human […]
by Kent Sterling Whether or not anyone on the rosters of the New York Knicks or Indiana Pacers remember the epic playoff battle these teams waged between 1994 and 2000, this regular season game harkened back to those days. It was impossible to turn away from, and equally difficult to avoid becoming emotionally attached to […]
by Kent Sterling The Colts all but won the AFC South when they beat Tennessee in a game where they rebounded from a terrible first half, and because of a hotly debated pass interference non-call in the Patriots vs. Panthers game, the Colts have a very tenuous hold on the #2 seed in the AFC. […]
by Kent Sterling Contrasting styles make fights, and that’s why I can’t wait to watch the Indiana Pacers play the New York Knicks tonight at 7p on Fox Sports Indiana. The Pacers have won nine of ten, while the Knicks are 3-7. The causes for both results are many, and vividly display the differences between […]
by Kent Sterling KentSterling.com tells the truth through the eyes of Kent Sterling, which makes it inherently unique. That’s pretty simple. That’s the brand, and everything posted here reinforces it. The drive to tell the truth isn’t a marketing position, but the only thing I believe to be worth my time and effort. Writing is […]
by Kent Sterling Not sure if I’m the only person in the media who wrestles with this, but I really don’t like to be critical of people who play collegiate athletics. They are amateurs, students, and barely out of high school. That should keep their behavior from being dissected under a high intensity microscope. Life […]
by Kent Sterling After beating their first four opponents by an average score of 93-69, fans have learned a little bit about the 2013-2014 Indiana Hoosiers. The highly touted freshman class has performed as advertised, and the sophomores have also responded to the challenge of replacing the 70+% of the offense that moved on through […]
