If you want to you can provide a custom sort model, it's a pretty
simple interface.
Alternatively, if all you want to do is start with sort descending
then you could just do this:
_grid.getSortModel().updateSort("entered"); // sorts ascending
_grid.getSortModel().updateSort("entered"); // now sorts descending
ugly, but effective.
