Elián González knows no life outside of being a pawn of propaganda. His media appearances, seemingly orchestrated by the Cuban government, have become quite common over the past few months to mark the tenth anniversary of his return to Cuba. Now, the Latin American Herald Tribune reports González gave an…
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…
Remember Doug Giles? He’s the father of “ACORN ho” Hannah Giles, an aspiring conservative talking head, and senior pastor of Aventura’s Clash Church. Giles has always been unhinged, but his latest video is a bigoted, ignorant hate fest that attacks Muslims and undermines America’s freedom of religion. And, oh, yeah,…

According to multiple reports, the Miami Dolphins have traded popular wide receiver Greg Camarillo to the Minnesota Vikings.

Liberty City-native Chad Ochocinco failed to find love with his own VH1 reality show, but as luck would have it he’s apparently found love another star from the channel’s reality TV line-up: Basketball Wives’ Evelyn Lozada, the ex-fiancé of former Heat player Antoine Walker and owner of a shoe boutique on…
Liberty City native Chad Ochocinco was fined $25,000 this weekend for using Twitter during the Bengal’s pre-season game against the Eagles. Apparently, using social media or electronic devices during games or practices is banned by the NFL. Now Dolphins running back Ricky Williams is in hot water after updates appeared…
Rick Scott, now the official Republican nominee for Governor, has made Arizona-style immigration laws a main issue in the election. The controversial laws are none-too-popular amongst Hispanic voters (in fact, some are theorizing that Bill McCollum’s hard right flip-flop in favor of them may have cost him the election), so…
We all know how hard it is to quit an addiction. You know, like that daily ice cream indulgence mid-afternoon (that used to be mine), or that nasty pack-a-day habit. But can social media giant Twitter really help with that? The New York Times seems to think so. Earlier this…

Kendrick Meek will not miss Jeff Greene. Like that guy at your party who shows up uninvited, plays Kelly Clarkson so loud the cops come, and then bolts before you’re handed a noise violation, Greene has been a major headache.But Meek will miss Greene’s money. That’s because now that Meek…
Prediction: Next election, silly hats are in. Rival school board candidates will rock diamond-studded mitres and Budweiser-stocked beer helmets. Marco Rubio will demolish Charlie Crist after finding a totally sweet plaid Tam O’Shanter at a garage sale and wearing it on Fox. The arms race is on!All because of Frederica…
Efraim Diveroli, the irrepressible 24-year-old arms trafficker and Miami Beach felon, was arrested Friday for attempting to sell large quantities of ammunition to undercover federal agents in central Florida. He’s been detained without bond in Orange County and charged with “possession of firearms as a convicted felon” and “possession of…
Today Florida went to the polls for the 2010 primary election. While tonight’s big theme involved controversial, self-funded billionaire outsiders taking on establishment career politicians in both the Republican primary for Governor and Democratic primary for Senate, there’s still lots of ballot action to watch. Both parties have contested primaries…
