by Kent Sterling It’s pathetic. It’s ridiculous. It’s weak. And ultimately it’s unfair to LSU running back Jeremy Hill has been reinstated to the LSU football team because the lesson that could have been taught here was foregone in favor of serving the needs of a coach to continue to win at a program that […]
by Kent Sterling Riley Cooper did himself no favors when he threatened a black security guard while using the N-word at a Kenny Chesney concert in June, but the dialogue prompted by his idiocy is a very good thing. I’ve heard more intelligent dialogue about racism over the last 36 hours as a result of […]
by Kent Sterling Professional athletes are a bunch of pampered and self-indulgent rubes who rely on others to make decisions and provide them with a worry free life. That’s their reputation anyway. Click here to follow Kent on Twitter Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, San Francisco 49ers cornerback Tarell Brown, and former Indianapolis Colts […]
by Kent Sterling We had already spoken to a few people about the opening for Colts player/analyst prior to the 2000 season when center Jeff Saturday walked into program director Jon Quick’s office, but as soon as Jeff opened his mouth, it was clear he was our guy.

by Kent Sterling Dan Dakich is a great radio host because his genuine curiosity evokes answers that lead to unique opinions. I spent 90-minutes with Dan today in the 1070 the Fan studio, and he asked me about Rutgers. The most interesting part of the discussion dealt with journalistic weasels – my term, not Dan’s […]
by Kent Sterling I love Gregg Doyel as a writer. He’s angry, funny, and shares his version of the truth with enough hyperbole to make it interesting. I hope I’m half the writer he is when I grow up. His segments with Dan Dakich on 1070 The Fan in Indianapolis are some of the best […]
by Kent Sterling Be honest. If your job was to assemble a winning team in the NFL, would you sign currently unemployed quarterback Tim Tebow? Most GMs would sell their children for another win or two, so if Tebow was a guy who could provide that, he would have a gig. All else being equal […]
by Kent Sterling Parents are blinded by love for their children. They act like narcissistic idiots, only interested in viewing the world through the prism of what’s best for the child. It’s a given that parents will misbehave. If you ask 100 youth or high school sports coaches what they believe is the worst part […]
