Well jeez, we literally just got done defending the honor of “The U,” when this popped up in our inbox.Last time the Miami Hurricanes pulled off a shut out it resulted in an on-the-field brawl with cross town opponents FIU. Well, apparently during last night’s blow out of FAMU there…
The USC Trojans are currently under harsh sanctions (much to the ‘Canes benefit), and ironically Butch Davis, who once was charged with picking up the pieces of Miami’s sanction shattered program, is now feeling the fall out of an NCAA investigation at UNC. Sports oddsmakers are already wondering which program…
If Florida A&M’s goal was to come out and get completely annihilated in the most humbling way imaginable, then mission accomplished because The U came out and crushed the Rattlers 45-0 last night. The defense recorded eight sacks, Jacory Harris tossed three touchdowns, Leonard Hankerson caught six passes for 115…
They grow their boys a little bigger here in Georgia. But as our mother always told us, size doesn’t matter. Right? The speedy Miami Central Rockets start their season tonight against the heavy (hitting) Camden County Wildcats in Kingsland, Georgia. A loss would cost either team valuable momentum as well…
Say what you will about the LeBron to Miami soap opera, but from the Mistake on the Lake to the Magic City, it’s inspired some of the finest trash talking since some guy in Brooklyn invented the “Yo Mama” joke. The best insultologists among us aren’t content with simply talking…
More often than not, baseball brawls are lame. A pitcher plunks a batter, the batter charges the mound, the pitcher readies himself for the fight and then the players start aimlessly swinging like two preteen girls fighting over a Justin Bieber t-shirt at the mall. Arms flailing, hands flapping, heads…
The NFL season hasn’t even begun yet, and the Dolphins are already embarrassing themselves on the field. Defensive end Kendall Langford lost a 2.5 caret diamond earring (honey, those must be fierce) and had about nine fellow Fins searching the ground for the bling.If only the Fins would work so…
ESPN’s Monday Night Football analysts Ron Jaworski and Jon Gruden held a conference call today to preview the upcoming season and both think the Miami Dolphins are going to beat the odds and play well into January. While pretty much the rest of the planet thinks Miami will finish third…
Never mind Danielle, Earl and Fionna. Miami’s real Hurricane season kicks off tomorrow as the University of Miami takes on FAMU. Though, a day before the kickoff there’s two interesting tidbits of Hurricanes news. At an event earlier today in NYC, Nike unveiled a new special edition uniform that, at…
The stereotype goes that men are afraid of commitment and dread the idea of marriage. For one sports writer that stereotype holds so true that he’s literally begging Chris Bosh to not get married after proposing to his girlfriend this weekend in an article titled “Chris Bosh Wedding: Why It…
It’s 7 p.m. on a Thursday, and Traz Powell Stadium is buzzing. Helmets crunch and penalty flags fly as two local high school teams — the Northwestern Bulls and the Norland Vikings — slug out a preseason game. In the stands, a thousand fans are fixated on Northwestern quarterback Teddy…
LeBron James tore a hole in the fabric of the universe when he announced on live television he was joining the Miami Heat. And wow, did people say some really dumb/crazy things about it. Here’s our compendium, in roughly chronological form, of the looniest and most mind-melting quotes from the…
The goal of Dwyane Wade, LeBron James, and Chris Bosh’s unholy Heat trinity was, quite simply, rings. But they’ll have to wait until the postseason for their first shot at a championship. Bosh’s girlfriend, Adrienne Williams, didn’t have to wait so long for her ring. The player’s rep has confirmed that he…
Remember all of that rain that’s been following the Miami Dolphins around throughout the preseason? Well, they finally caught a break from Mother Nature for their third preseason game against the Falcons this past Friday night. And then they scored a whopping six points in a 16-6 loss. It’s always…
The starting squad for your Miami Dolphins has not been able to catch a break with the all the rain during the first two pre-season games. Against the Buccaneers two weeks ago, a rainstorm created a quagmire in Sun Life Stadium. Last week, the foul weather followed them up to…
On Tuesday, we sized up Dwyane Wade’s acting ability based on his latest commercial for Gatorade’s G Series. Well, Men’s Health saw the post and happened to have Wade swoop by their offices yesterday. Apparently, they think we said LeBron James is a better actor than Wade (which is not exactly…
Like countries in a Middle East arms race, Miami-area high school football teams have spent the last nine months developing top-secret weapons to unload on their unsuspecting opponents.Trick plays, revamped offenses, and last-minute transfer students will all be on display tonight as the high school football season begins.For local title-hopeful…
The reaction across the board has been pretty universal after Florida Marlins owner Jeffery Loria and team president David Samson were exposed for lying about the team’s finances earlier this week: People are pissed. Miami-Dade County Commissioner Rebecca Sosa has even requested the team give more money than they originally pledged…

Hanley Ramirez showed up at the Mets’ Citi Field last night with a splotchy reddish dye job that made him look like the deranged love child of Sisqo and Ronald McDonald. But he had four hits in the Marlins’ win, so we’re guessing he’ll stay with the look. Turns out…
Adopting an alter ego for a commercial is a time-honored tradition among NBA players. There was Larry Johnson’s Grandma Ma, Penny Hardaway’s Lil Penny, and of course LeBron James’s multi-personality turn in Nike’s “The LeBrons” commercials. Now Dwyane Wade has joined the tradition, shilling for Gatorade as a sports store clerk…
According to multiple reports, the Miami Dolphins have traded popular wide receiver Greg Camarillo to the Minnesota Vikings. While the move helps open roster spots for younger, faster (and healthier) receivers like Marlon Moore and Patrick Turner to make the final 53-man roster, the news still tugs at the heartstrings…
