by Kent Sterling I love talking to specialists. You want great answers, ask a kicker, punter, or long-snapper a question. Who’s a better talker for the Indianapolis Colts than punter Pat McAfee? Kicker Adam Vinatieri isn’t far behind, and long snapper Matt Overton is pretty damn good too. Click here to follow Kent on Twitter […]
by Kent Sterling The sheer tonnage of fascinating topics in sports will keep Fox 59 sports director Chris Hagan and me talking and listening all day, but only two of those hours will be spent of the radio today. Peyton Manning’s homecoming tomorrow night, Indiana’s challenge at the Big House at 3:30 today, the Pacers […]
by Kent Sterling Bill Polian ran the Colts, and they went to the playoffs 11 times in 14 years, traveled to Miami twice for two Super Bowls, and won one. He was a genius at building a roster behind the NFL’s best quarterback, and when the winning stopped, he was a goner – just like […]

After […]
by Kent Sterling Someone is going to accept the position as manager of the Chicago Cubs because team president Theo Epstein is going to offer enough money to make it difficult to refuse, but that person should know walking through the door that a promising career as a big league manager will end two years […]
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 […]
by Kent Sterling There is a challenge inherent in listening to or reading comments made by Colts owner Jim Irsay. He can make the mistake of assuming everyone knows what he’s talking about.
