by Kent Sterling The NCAA showed its hand today in meting out penalties to Oregon Football. Those penalties serve more as an affirmation for Oregon’s policies in violating NCAA rules than an admonition, so the question the begs to be asked is why did the punishment for Ohio State Football so badly outweigh that of […]
by Kent Sterling The punchline to the joke the NCAA just told isn’t funny. Two years of investigating, and nothing to show for it. Five years ago, Indiana University Basketball was eviscerated due to several impermissible phone calls, but Oregon Football somehow manages to avoid any meaningful penalties after making payments totaling $25,000 to a […]
by Kent Sterling New England Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez has been arrested by the North Attleboro Police and released by the New England Patriots. Many will say that the Patriots have acted prematurely, having released Hernandez without even knowing what charges are being brought against their tight end, but this the right move at […]
Wacky Brazilians Distract Viewers from Paying Attention to RTV6 Newscast
by Kent Sterling Depending upon you taste in newscasts, people leaping up and down with signs as they protest something or another can either be a nuisance of hilarious diversion.

by Kent Sterling Winning a championship is hard, and there is no shame in not winning one for a few seasons, but minus a few outliers, the City of Chicago has had some barren years minus the Blackhawks over the past half century. I would love for you to click here to follow Kent on […]
by Kent Sterling Two sports with their championship series that occur almost simultaneously. One thrives, and the other struggles. One has stars, the other has players with similar talents who minus their numbers appear identical. The differences between the NBA and NHL remind me of the difference between NASCAR and IndyCar. When I watched the […]
Why Victor Oladipo Should Be the #1 Overall Pick
by Kent Sterling That’s a clear-headed kid. Former Indiana University shooting guard Victor Oladipo will be taken in the top five picks in Thursday night’s NBA draft, but every team that passes on him will regret it. That’s because Victor is a man of goals, vision, and sacrifice. So many young men see draft night […]

At the minimum, tight end Aaron Hernandez apparently destroyed his cell phone and security recordings from his home that police wanted to audit as they compile a timeline in the murder of Odin Lloyd. The maximum is unimportant because a guy who […]
