Independent Journalism in Miami Needs You
We need to raise $10,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
Local
- A man jumped in front of a Metrorail train in South Miami this morning. He is dead now. [Herald]
- The homosexuals cannot get married or adopt children, but now they can fly a flag without having to get a permit. Small steps! [NBCMiami]
- Miami Commissioner Angel Gonzalez was questioned by the State Attorney’s Office because he didn’t disclose rental income. [Herald]
Sports
- There are not a lot of Americans left playing in the Sony Ericsson, so it falls again to the Williams sisters to make an entire country proud on the tennis courts. [TSN]
- Oh, and Andy Roddick too. What would happen if he and the Williams sisters decided to take a road trip together one summer and their van crashed, resulting in career-ending injuries? Would tennis cease to exist in the U.S. of A.? [UPI]
- UM baseball at least won one of its games in its series against GaTech, so it’s not that embarassing. [Herald]
- The Heat beat the Bucks. [AP]
Flotsam
- The prosecution rests in the Castroneves tax evasion trial. We will get you, Castroneves. You need to pay for your share of the bailout like the rest of us. [AP]
