by Kent Sterling On Sunday night, the Denver Broncos and Indianapolis Colts will actually play some football. The hyperbole and weirdness of this strange week will be over, and football skills will finally trump verbal clumsiness Bill Polian/Jim Irsay) or brilliance (Peyton Manning/Andrew Luck). There will be those who say that the toughest part of […]
by Kent Sterling Note to self – if you ever fire Bill Polian, give him a chace to vent in the office, so he doesn’t puke bile all over ESPN asked about previous managers. There is one thing that people in indianapolis learned from 1998 thru 2011 about Bill Polian – it does not take […]

Indiana Football – Kevin Wilson Prepping for Michigan After Tough Loss to Spartans
by Kent Sterling I keep waiting for Indiana football coach Kevin Wilson to react rather than build, but he never does. And I no longer believe he will.
