Being a Miami Heat fan is like spending a day off work at the beach — even on the rainiest days, it doesn’t suck. A Heat fan’s floor for basketball enjoyment throughout a season is most NBA fans’ ceiling. The team’s hot start this season once again proves something fans could have told everyone a long time ago: The Miami Heat is the greatest organization in the NBA.
While fans cheered the Miami Heat during yesterday’s home game against the Houston Rockets, a group of demonstrators filled three rows inside the American Airlines Arena in support of Hong Kong protesters and their demands for democracy.
Saturday afternoon, the Miami Hurricanes went to Tallahassee and demolished the Florida State Seminoles 27-10. Nine sacks against FSU and some well-timed dime passes from UM quarterback Jarren Williams sealed a third straight win over Miami’s biggest rival. Much fun was had in the state capital at the Seminoles’ expense.
Bad takes — they happen to the best of us. There is literally an entire Twitter account dedicated to getting a good chuckle at how wrong we all are when it comes to sports opinions. Sometimes, though, a take is so predictably bad, so outrageously hideous, that when said take inevitably fires backward we must, by Twitter law, gather together to point it out.
Dolphins fans have to be asking themselves where this franchise went wrong. Not so much why the team is 0-7 this season — because it’s rather obvious that was the plan — but more so, how it’s come to this.
When the Miami Dolphins face the Pittsburgh Steelers tonight, much airtime will likely be dedicated to the fact that the matchup marks be the first time Minkah Fitzpatrick, the Dolphins’ 2018 first-round pick, will face his former team since forcing a trade earlier this season.
Wednesday night, fans were introduced to the 2019-20 Miami Heat. There were T-shirt cannons, a pre-tip Justise Winslow speech, a new introduction video, and, uh, holy shit, like an entire roster of new-ish players who are apparently all going to win Rookie of the Year.
Whomever you pray to or worship, thank it/he/she/they for the many blessings that have arrived today: The Miami Heat is officially back in our lives.
The Dolphins lost another football game yesterday, this time 31-21 to the Buffalo Bills. Rather than boring you with all of the statistics and takes about whether it’s good the Dolphins moved to 0-6 this season, we’ll just present video evidence of how Miami bookended the game with two of the worst football plays you’ll ever see.
Perhaps you’ve seen it in the newspapers, but for those who just returned from a backpacking trip through the Amazon, we have some very sad and unfortunate news: The 2019 Miami Dolphins are a hideous football team with which you should under no circumstances make eye contact.
Perhaps those hundred or so games Dwyane Wade played with the Chicago Bulls and Cleveland Cavaliers from 2016 to 2018 have prepared Miami Heat fans for life without the franchise’s greatest star. Maybe Wade’s incredible farewell season and the fact he had nothing left to prove or accomplish will lessen the sting a bit.
Yesterday the Miami Dolphins played arguably the most important game at Hard Rock Stadium since, well, when was El Clásico? Fans were treated to a textbook showdown between two winless teams that were maybe, probably, arguably trying to out-suck each other in what can only be referred to as the 2019 Tank Bowl.
Outside of his family, friends, and Miami Heat fans, there is no one on Earth who loves Dwyane Wade more than his former coworkers. Wade is adored by just about everyone who came into contact with him during his 15 seasons with the Heat, from longtime teammates to the coaching staff to the broadcast team.
Perhaps you have heard the news — the Miami Dolphins are *not* having a superfantastic football season. They are not the greatest football team, and they most definitely are not moving the ball from goal to goal like no one has ever seen.
The greyhound industry isn’t taking defeat well. After unsuccessfully suing to keep a measure banning dog racing off the Florida ballot last year, greyhound breeders and trainers are headed back to court. This time, they’re arguing that the ban — approved by 69 percent of state voters in the 2018 election — strips their dogs of their earning potential.
We now interrupt your regularly scheduled column about the Miami Dolphins for some urgent, breaking, and exclusive sports-related content. A Dolphins fan has done a thing, and you should know about it.
In 2019, a grand total of 6,776 home runs were hit during the Major League Baseball season, an astounding 671 more than the previous record set in 2017. Fifteen teams in MLB broke their all-time franchise for dingers…
It’s time to call it: Miami is a basketball town. No ifs, ands, or buts about it — it’s clear the Miami Heat is the darling of the Dade County sports world.
The good news is that on Sunday, the Miami Dolphins looked better than they have all season. They even had a lead at one point! The bad news is the Miami Dolphins have been so bad this season that getting quietly thumped by the San Diego Chargers 30-10 qualifies as progress.
Miami sports fans have some unfortunate recent experience with ranking near last. Between the Marlins losing 100 games, the Heat missing the playoffs, and the Dolphins doing their damnedest to ensure they don’t win a game again until next season, rooting on the local teams has been quite the chore lately.
Everyone is mad that the Miami Dolphins are bad. The fans are mad. The players are mad. And the national media, most flamboyantly, is mad.
If the NFL counted style points, the Dolphins might have earned themselves a few yesterday. Unfortunately, the NFL doesn’t keep track of how pretty you looked in a 31-6 loss, so the Dolphins are just your normal, everyday 0-3 after their latest loss to the Dallas Cowboys.
