by Kent Sterling Ahh, Twitter. What would we write about in August without Indianapolis Colts Owner Jim Irsay explaining the inner workings of his team – from the dressing down his “commanders” received following the 24-point loss to the Buffalo Bills, and today’s effort to justify the pricing strategy for tickets, parking, and concessions.

by Kent Sterling Back and forth I go about the predicted fortunes of the Indianapolis Colts. They are projected to win anywhere from six to 12 games, and that’s an unusually huge swath between potential success and failure. Hard to imagine most NFL teams winning more than 12 or less than six (except for the […]
by Kent Sterling There was a different vibe a Colts Camp today. Nothing like a 24-point hammering by an expansion team-esque Buffalo Bills to get a full roster serious about football. The fun of last week was replaced by serious work. Second year tight end Coby Fleener watched from the sidelines with his sleeves rolled […]
by Kent Sterling There is an old saying in sports that the best teams have an owner who owns, a general manager who generally manages, and a coach who coaches. The Indianapolis Colts were a team like that for many years, most of them very successful. Click here to follow Kent on Twitter Owner Jim […]

Watching on TV, I could always see what was going on, and never understood how I could see what they couldn’t. Click here to follow Kent […]
Buffalo Bills Bury Colts 44-20 in Preseason Rehearsal
by Kent Sterling Just keep repeating, “It just doesn’t matter like Bill Murray and the other counselors in “Meatballs.” The Colts looked awful today against a Buffalo Bills team likely to be among the worth in the NFL Click here to follow Kent on Twitter What a difference a year makes. A year ago tomorrow, […]
by Kent Sterling The best two hours of my week are bearing down on me like the State Fair train headed toward fried treats. The guest list is massive, and the news could keep me talking for eight hours instead of two. I’m so damned mad at the self-indulgent whining about discipline from LSU football […]
by Kent Sterling If preseason games don’t do much to illuminate the level of play for any team (and they don’t), the workouts where attempts at comparative analysis is impossible are futile. The workouts are finished in preparation for the preseason opener Sunday against the Buffalo Bills at Lucas Oil Stadium, but the work isn’t […]
by Kent Sterling One of the only things I’ve learned at Indianapolis Colts Training Camp is that their quarterback, the 2012 #1 overall pick in the draft, is the real deal. Andrew Luck has all the traits of an exceptionally talented player in the NFL. I’ve stared at Luck during workouts in Anderson during training […]
by Kent Sterling The first seven or eight times, I found the statistical evaluations of the 2012 Colts season to be interesting and entertaining. As a team with a -30 point differential, it seems a mathematical anomaly to win 11 games in a 16 game season as the Colts did in 2012. True enough. Click […]
