by Kent Sterling The lesson: I’m young enough to continue to challenge my body, but too old to do it without consequence. Just spent four days in Clearwater, Florida with friends and their family. I was hard not to learn on our little trip, which was little because Julie and I realized a long time ago […]
by Kent Sterling Phil Mickelson has everything figured out, but winning a U.S. Open continues to elude him. He has finished second six times since 1999, but those losses won’t define him. Jack Nicklaus holds the record for winning majors with 18, but he was also the runner up in 19 more. Nicklaus is known […]
by Kent Sterling The Indiana vs. Kentucky all star series has become an afterthought on the sports calendar – not because their is a lack of interest from Indiana fans, but because of the quality of play by Kentucky.

by Kent Sterling Okay, so this photo gallery has only two pictures, but that’s alright. A picture is worth 1,000 words, so these two shots of Chicago Cubs head fan/owner are worth more than three times the words in this post. I’m tired of Ricketts act, and it is an act. If he doesn’t want […]
Indianapolis Colts Minicamp Concludes on High Note – Chuck Pagano Video
by Kent Sterling The Indianapolis Colts got done what they came to town for, according to coach Chuck Pagano, although we won’t know exactly what that is until the season starts. Whether they are going to take a step forward or back is for keener eyes than mine to decide because until the players are […]
by Kent Sterling Gregg Popovich is an Indiana guy who coaches a style of basketball I love, so I should like him, and I would like to. But he makes it impossible because he has no interest in treating people like human beings. ESPN has worked hard during the NBA Finals trying to make him […]
by Kent Sterling Honesty is powerful – especially today as so few people bother to tell the truth. Yesterday, the assistant director of the center for student success and academic counseling at the University of North Carolina told some truth.
