Are we really going to do this? Are we really going to all post and watch a video of young Oklahoma City Thunder fan crying and screaming after the Heat beat his beloved team in Game 3? We guess his weird parents decided it would be cool to upload it…
The Miami Heat shot 37 percent from the field last night. They turned the ball over nine times in the fourth quarter. Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook both shot over 50 percent. Dwyane Wade’s performance was once again pure ass. Chris Bosh finished 3-for-12 from the field. LeBron James failed…
Are you excited to take a behind the scenes look at the Miami Dolphins on HBO’s Hard Knocks? Because the players sure aren’t. Tight end Anthony Fasano says groans echoed through the locker room when the team was informed they’d be pulling double duty as reality TV stars…
OK, it’s not just A-Rod in LeBron’s corner anymore. None other than Michael Jordan thinks the Heat are going to win the championship this year. The legend didn’t make any sort of public pronouncement, but apparently that’s what was overheard last night when he took in the game at Haven…
Tickets for game 5 of the NBA Finals here in Miami next Thursday went on sale online at noon today. By 12:01 p.m., the only tickets available were standing-room. By 12:04, even those spots — which started at $150 each — were gone.Finals tickets at American Airlines Arena aren’t easy…
Holy assballs it almost happened again.After the Miami Heat held the lead from the opening tip, just like in Game 1, and held a double-digit lead, just like in Game 1, the Oklahoma City Thunder almost rallied back to steal Game 2, just like Game 1.But thanks to LeBron James…
Don’t worry guys, a beloved sports figure of the utmost integrity has finally spoken up and lent his support to our perhaps unfairly vilified LeBron James. Oh, wait, just kidding, it’s Alex Rodriguez.”Sometimes I feel so bad for him,” Rodriguez said this morning on ESPN New York’s The Michael Kay…
Much like Rodney Dangerfield, Ozzie Guillen gets no respect. A recent poll of 100 current MLB players by Men’s Journal reveals that the Venezuelan loud mouth is the least respected baseball manager currently in the league. He ran away with the dishonor by a wide margin…
Last year, we made some rather foolhardy predictions about the NBA finals and ended up with a tattoo of Jason Terry indelibly inked on our pale white ass. So this year, we are avoiding any claims of clairvoyance and appealing to a baser emotion: pure, unbridled hatred.Yes, the Miami Heat…
From being part of one big three to backing up another?Boston Celtics shooting guard Ray Allen’s contract is up. If he doesn’t end up back in green, ESPN New York reports that the ten-time All Star would heavily consider signing with the Heat. Apparently there aren’t hard feelings that his…
Last night the Oklahoma City Thunder’s staff introduced the Miami Heat to the sounds of Star Wars’ “Imperial March.” They intended it as some sort of cheap swipe. I couldn’t help but chuckle. After all, I’ve been rooting for a team that’s incorporated Darth Vader’s theme music into their game…
Game 1 of the 2012 NBA Finals was a tale of two halves.The Miami Heat shot out of the gate strong, hitting shots, making threes and getting a huge game from *record scratch* Shane Battier!But the second half was a whole other bag of salted cock n’ balls as Kevin…
In a serious bid to bolster their Hard Knocks reality show ratings — and an outside chance to firm up the wide receiver position a little — the Miami Dolphins reportedly signed hometown class clown Chad Ochocinco last night. Ochocinco celebrated the best way he knew how: updating his Twitter…
You don’t get much different than Seattle and Miami. The differences are as big as Northwest and Southeast, orcas and alligators, Starbucks and cafecitos, and, very literally, apples and oranges. Yet, might Seattle be the only city in America, outside of South Florida, that will be rooting for the Heat…
Chad Ochocinco was born in Miami and played for Miami Beach Senior High. His career may be about to come full circle, as the Dolphins are seriously exploring the possibility of signing the most interesting man in the NFL. Based solely on potential blog post fodder, Riptide approves of this…
On Saturday, Danell Leyva lost the men’s national gymnastics championship by a mere .05 percentage points, but the 20-year-old Cuban American gymnast is pretty much a lock for a spot on the United States Olympic men’s team. Leyva was edged out by John Orozco, a 19-year-old from the Bronx who…
After blowing up the Boston Celtics Big Three Era (for the second straight season) in last night’s 101-88 Game 7 triumph, the Miami Heat are headed to their second-straight NBA Finals.The Big Three known as LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh scored Miami’s final 31 points, including all 28…
Tonight, at last, it ends: Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals starts at 8:30 p.m., and it may well destroy the world as we know it. Okay, the game may only result in the destruction of a few TV sets and cars in the greater Boston and Miami areas,…
Like the band playing on as the Titanic sank, what remained of the rapidly dissipating crowd last night at TD Garden took to their feet and chanted “Let’s Go Celtics.” A display that will probably be twisted as proof positive that Boston fans are superior in every way to Miami…

On Sunday, The New York Times Magazine published a Q&A and photo spread with Dwyane Wade entitled, “Dwyane Wade Loves His Jordans and His Body Lotion”. That title tells you everything you need to know about this story, in which Wade speaks on his love for baby wipes, “the powders…
Today, Miami gymnast Danell Leyva begins defense of his national championship title as the country’s best gymnast as he inches closer toward his quest of becoming the first Cuban American member of the USA team at the Summer Olympics in London. This 20-year-old is a beast.He is the reigning 2011…
