• Weekend Football: Any Given Friday Afternoon Post

  Every weekend the local professional and college level football player-type people assemble on the field to play their games. Every weekend we write things about it, because it is an easy Friday afternoon post. We also post something dumb holding a football. This week is no exception. Anyway, we are feeling good after the Canes win last night. Let's hope the good cheer continues.

• Weekend Football: The Big Rematch

  Ugh, it is football post time again. After the Canes' face plant last night, we're a bit down on the sport. Seriously they had it all before them - a return to national prominence and the ACC title and what do they do? Give up more rushing yards than they have since 1944! 1944! America was in WWII! We Re-elected FDR! Pippi Longstocking was written! The Calculate was invented! 1944! Wha-ha-ha-ha-hat ever, Canes. Cheer us up, Fins. We need it. New England Patriots @ Miami Dolphins, Sunday 1pm o

• Crosstown Rivals: FIU @ UM

  Oh, no! Your Miami Hurricanes basketball team has fallen out of the AP's Top 25 poll! They're currently 5-2, and both of those losses were to unbeaten teams, so there's not that much shame and a good chance for a resurgence. But tonight they get the chance to let off some steam and build up some confidence against cross-town rivals, the FIU Golden Panthers. The Panthers are currently 4-5, and Miami will get the home-court advantage. Tip-off is at 7:30 p.m. Don't expect a brawl, unless underdog F

• Isiah Thomas Already Acting Like a Bit of a Dick

  Just a couple of weeks into his new gig as Florida International University basketball coach, Isiah Thomas is already beginning to exhibit his world-famous people-person charm.High school forward and Jacksonville native Chris Rozier had been offered a b-ball scholarship to FIU before Thomas got there.
