by Kent Sterling Dan Dakich is one of my favorite sportsradio hosts because he says interesting things and is able to back them up with an impressive litany of reasons. The only national media person to say that the Pacers are the better team, you disagree with Dan at your own peril. He’s not always […]
by Kent Sterling Today is Carb Day. It features the final practice prior to the running of the 97th Indianapolis 500. RVs and tents pop up in the Coke Lot and at the corner of Camp and Brew. A middling rock band plays for thousands of way overserved knuckleheads – this year it’s Poison. And […]
by Kent Sterling Seven game series are great fun. Today, Pacers fans are saying that tonight’s game is a must win, and so are Heat fans. A loss at home, and the Pacers have their opening. The Heat sweep the first two, and the Pacers must be perfect at home. With a win in tonight’s […]
by Bert Beiswanger When you watch the television broadcast (or re-broadcast) of this year’s Indianapolis 500 on ABC, you’re sure to be entertained and educated by the knowledge and experience of 1998 Indianapolis 500 winner Eddie Cheever. Cheever is fairly direct and passionate about everything he has to say about open wheel racing. When you […]
by Kent Sterling My expectations for the third installment of the mischief four very different guys get into when the going gets weird were incredibly high. The writing for the first “Hangover” was clever as hell. Surprises came so quickly that the movie seemed as randomly constructed as real life. The second has less laughs, […]
by Bert Beiswanger Not long after the Indiana Pacers lost Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals to the Miami Heat on a last second layup by LeBron James, much of the post-game criticism turned to coach Frank Vogel’s decision not to have Roy Hibbert on the floor during the last possession. The moment I […]
by Kent Sterling The 32 NFL general managers can breathe easy this morning. Finally, actor Chuck Norris has provided his much sought after and invaluable evaluation of Tim Tebow as a quarterback. Tebow’s detractors thought that the NFL’s reluctance to employ Tebow had something to do with his mechanics that lead to inaccuracy. His supporters […]
by Kent Sterling All you can do is all you can do, and by all accounts that’s what Indiana Men’s Basketball Coach Tom Crean did in his pursuit to snare five-star recruit Theo Pinson. The 6’6″, 180 lbs. wing committed to North Carolina today. He’s similar to Michael Jordan in more than appearance, although a […]
Coach Rick Venturi Calls the NFC West the Best Division in the NFL
by Kent Sterling There is no doubt that the St. Louis Rams have taken a quantum leap forward from where they were less than 18 months ago, but the 49ers and Seahawks haven’t been sitting on their hands either. Improving compared to yourself doesn’t win you games. You have to get better compared to your […]
Theo Pinson Commitment Day – Highlight Reels Show Combination of Magic Johnson and Michael Jordan
by Kent Sterling You can never trust highlight reels. If you could, a Wesleyan Christian Academy (NC) class of 2014 player scheduled to announce today at 12:15p whether he’ll attend North Carolina, Duke, Georgetown, Louisville, or Indiana today would get fans of those schools really excited. Theo Pinson does things on the videos below that […]
