by Kent Sterling Here is what super-selfish super agent Scott Boras said to the media about the Chicago Cubs at the annual baseball general managers meeting that I found super annoying. “You’re (the Cubs) developing the infrastructure, but fans don’t come to see seats, grass, cement. They come to see players. They’ve done a great […]
by Kent Sterling When I have a question about football, I ask Rick Venturi, who . I had a lot of questions this morning on “Ahead of the Curve” on 1070 the Fan. The Colts seem incapable of playing good football in the first half, but somehow continue to win because the brief periods of […]
by Kent Sterling Indiana Pacers power forward David West is a thoughtful guy. He thinks before he speaks, and answers questions without using cliches. I love interviewing him because the quality of the questions drives the quality of the answers. You do not walk up to West, shove a micrpone in his face, and say, […]
by Kent Sterling My God, could there be a more compelling guest list in sports radio? Indiana Pacers forward David West, Coach Rick Venturi, and IU guard Austin Etherington will share their insights with Fox 59 Sports Director Chris Hagan and me.

by Kent Sterling There was a time before Mike Pence was Indiana’s governor, a time before he was a congressman, a time when he was a talk radio host on Network Indiana and WIBC in Indianapolis. And he was one of the hosts with whom I had the most fun working with. When I had […]
by Kent Sterling Last week, the Indianapolis Colts faced an opponent coming off three straight losses forced to start a backup quarterback. Tavon Austin ran wild, and the St. Louis Rams trounced the Colts 38-8. The Tennessee Titans, who have lost their last three home games and four of five overall will trot out backup […]
by Kent Sterling Adversity is a wonderful thing. It allows us to examine, plot, and re-invent. Many of us are too fearful to cause ourselves adversity, so when it is delivered to us on a silver platter, it should be embraced. Some friends of mine were fired last week in St. Louis. It happens. A […]
by Kent Sterling My allegiance is not hard to win. I’ll never sell my version of the truth to anyone, but if a coach wants me to like him personally, buying me a sandwich or beer paves a straight and smooth route to my heart. Lousiville women’s basketball coach Jeff Walz is not buying me […]
