The Miami Heat has been unstoppable at home since the All-Star break. On the road, however, the team has been a big, heaping pile of ass. And that was certainly the case yesterday during their 91-72 gag reflex of a loss to the Boston Celtics.Rajon Rondo recorded a triple-double against…
In an off-season filled with godawful personnel moves, add dissing former first-round pick Vernon Carey to the list of Miami Dolphins blunders. During eight seasons with the Dolphins, Carey started 105 of 112 regular-season games ping-ponging between the left tackle, right tackle, and right guard on the offensive line. Not…
When the Miami Marlins signed Jose Reyes, there was a lot of speculation as to how the speedy Dominican superstar shortstop would mesh with the team’s existing speedy Dominican superstar shortstop, Hanley Ramirez. The answer: They’re basically the Siegfried and Roy of America’s pastime…
Miami Marlins outfielder Logan Morrison, subject of this week’s feature story, “Tweeter in Chief”, is one of the most outspoken and freewheeling dudes in Major League Baseball. He tweets crazy shit, he speaks his mind when questioned by reporters, and goes all out when photographed for the cover of your…
So what was Dwyane Wade up to during his lockout free time? Apparently penning a memoir about his experiences as a child and as a father to his children. The book, A Father First: How My Life Became Bigger than Basketball, is expected to be released in September…
Is this a sign of a University of Miami football apocalypse? The Hurricanes are are posting fliers around the school Wellness Center, asking “any student that is at least 6’1 and 230+ pounds” to contact the team about becoming offensive linemen. We gotta say, this does not strike us as…
Oral histories are hot right now. Siskel and Ebert got one. Vanity Fair just did one on The Sopranos. Now Esquire has one about Baywatch. It seems the only proper way to pay tribute to a dearly departed program is to document its history with disembodied quotes from its actors…
Finally, Frank Martin has become the head basketball coach of… South Carolina? According to news reports, Martin is leaving Kansas State after five years to take over the struggling Gamecocks. The move brings Martin closer to his native Miami, where he coached high school ball for 15 years, but it’s…
Ah, remember the days when Kimbo Slice was making people go bazonkers for his vicious beatdown videos on YouTube? Today, after washing out as a professional mixed martial artist, Slice’s fighting career has reached a new low. Despite winning his fourth straight professional boxing match Saturday night, the sports Interwebs…
Remember when the Marlins announced the roster of local artists they’d hired to spruce up their new Little Havana ballpark and everyone was all, “Yay! No Britto! Nice work, team.” That enthusiasm was tempered as we got our first look at the iris-searing home run sculpture in left, a construction…
Venus Williams didn’t let a little Sjogren’s Syndrome get in her way at the first women’s singles match of the Sony Ericsson Open in Key Biscayne yesterday.No, no, she showed that disorder who was boss and whooped Japan’s Kimiko Date-Krumm in a 77 minute-long short match (6-0, 6-3).The 31 year-old…
For pretty much the entirety of last night’s game against the Phoenix Suns, the Miami Heat played basketball like old people fuck. Winners of their last four games, the Suns came in shooting lights-out and playing suffocating defense. Dwyane Wade was shut down by Grant Hill, while LeBron James was…
Oh man, have we ever missed Joey Porter and his big, fat, flapping mouth. He talked himself out of town back in 2010. Porter pretty much got fired after ripping the team’s management and then coach Tony Sparano. Rest assured, he still has words for Dolphins GM Jeff Ireland and…
I’m starting to think that Dolphins general manager Jeff Ireland is more incompetent than he is idiotic. If he was just plain stupid, he’d probably be hot in the chase of Tim Tebow right now, and, well, we told you how we feel about that yesterday. Thankfully, according to reports…
Last night, it wasn’t so great to be a Miami Hurricane. Both the University of Miami men’s and women’s basketball teams saw their seasons come to an end by being upset in their respective tournaments by much lower seeded teams…
So, Peyton Manning has chosen to play for the Denver Broncos, which officially ends the reign of Tebowmania in Colorado.What does that mean for the Dolphins? The sports media has already cued up the Tebow-to-Miami talks. We’d rather they hit the kill button. Nothing about that makes sense…
While most of America was belligerently chanting about the luck of the Irish this weekend, one Ireland was having what might have been the worst weekend of his professional life: Dolphins general manager Jeff Ireland. He officially lost Peyton Manning, and then he missed out on Matt Flynn too.Now, Steelers…
The hate hit Sarah Spiegel’s YouTube account early last week, calling her an idiot and a hack and suggesting that she join her favorite team, the Miami Marlins, in just going straight to hell. Spiegel’s crime? Taking almost two weeks out of her singing career to pen a new ode…
How pathetic are the Dolphins’ front office? They couldn’t even secure a meeting with Peyton Manning on their own and had to enlist the help of Dan Marino. Yep, despite not having played for the ‘Fins for 13 years and not having any official affiliation with the team, Marino continues…
Once again, the University of Miami’s women’s basketball team is a third seed in the NCAA tournament, and once again President Barack Obama has snubbed them. Just like last year, the president predicts the Lady Canes will make a second round exit against a sixth seed team, this time at…
Peyton Manning has officially told the Miami Dolphins he won’t be suiting up in aqua and orange next season. It’s another embarrassing failure for owner Stephen Ross and GM Jeff Ireland, and there’s even some suggestions that Manning only took the meeting with the Fins as a favor to Dan…
Apparently LeBron James isn’t the only Heat star with a sometimes embarrassing parent. Dwyane Wade’s father, Dwyane Wade Sr., was ejected from the United Arena last night during the Bulls-Heat game, reportedly for yelling obscenities. Jeez, what a big fucking bag of dicks. Updated. …
