A recent GQ profile of once-high-flying NFL star Terrell Owens — who’s now close to broke despite earning more than $80 million — has shined a national spotlight this month on his South Florida agent, Drew Rosenhaus, and financial advisor, Jeff Rubin. T.O. has lambasted Rosenhaus’s management and sued over…
Riptide has a now established tradition of mathematically (in the loosest sense of the word) deciding which team Miamians should root for the in the Super Bowl. This year the answer seems obvious: F*ck the Pats! But should we really f*ck the Pats? Lets run both the New England Patriots…
It sure sounds like Peyton Manning is going to end up in Miami eventually one way or another. The only question is whether it will be in a Dolphins jersey or a pair of board shorts lounging at his condo at the Continuum in the South of Fifth area of…
Khalilah Camacho-Ali remembers the first time she walked into 5th Street Gym in Miami Beach was during the summer of 1967. Back then she was known as Belinda, the 17-year-old second bride of the man who would go on to become the greatest boxer of all time: Muhammad Ali. At…
Forget the new logo, uniforms, coach, roster or shady funding for the new stadium — by fair the most despair-inducing feature of the Miami Marlin’s recent makeover is what we originally termed the “insanely ugly animatronic home-run sculpture.” The thing looks like a Mardi Gras float impregnated a Guy Harvey…
Former Miami Hurricane and current Washington Redskin Rocky McIntosh was a guest on D.C.-area sports radio show this morning, and on the day after national signing day the hosts had recruiting on their mind. They started throwing questions at McIntosh about what part strip clubs and hot girls may have…
It’s easy to forget now, but Miami Beach was once the nexus of the world boxing scene thanks mostly to Angelo Dundee, the Hall of Fame trainer who opened the legendary 5th Street Gym with his brother Chris. Dundee trained dozens of elite fighters at the SoBe gym — most…
The Miami Heat looked like they were on their way to demolishing the entire Milwaukee Bucks franchise into a fine powder after scoring a season-high 40 points in the opening quarter of last night’s game. And then?Deercocks.For what seemed like the 30 billionth time this season, the Heat couldn’t close…
National signing day started out with a bang for Al Golden and his Miami Hurricanes. Tracy Howard, the number one cover cornerback in the nation and a Miramar High star, surprisingly picked the U over both FSU and UF after only making his first official visit to the school last…
We might have been a bit hyperbolic in calling LeBron James’ crazy over-the-head-of-an-opponent drunk the “most awesome dunk ever.” Sure, it was awesome, but it’s not even LeBron James’ favorite dunk of his career. He told ESPN’s Brian Windhorst his favorite five dunks. Here’s video of each…
Somewhere in the world exists a person who has decided that it would be a good idea to upload 2,600 YouTube videos in which he mispronounces various names in a strange inflection. As part of this person’s RunTheCube YouTube channel he has uploaded videos mispronouncing the name of every single…
FIU fans recently breathed a sigh of relief when Mario Cristobal was passed over for the head coaching job at Pitt, but fans are tense again this morning as several reports indicate that Cristobal is close to be being named the new head coach at Rutgers…
There’s a reason the Miami Dolphins pay Brandon Marshall all that money. He’s a damn good wide receiver. That’s a fact he reminded everyone of with his MVP performance in yesterday’s Pro Bowl; the kind of performance we see far too little of when he’s actually in a Dolphins jersey.After…
Everybody likes to talk about how LeBron James can’t get it done in the fourth quarter, that he isn’t clutch, that he’s a righteous ass-wrecking machine for the first three quarters of games but then inexplicably turns into a little old Chinese woman in the fourth quarter, costing his team…
The Miami Heat seemed to have been sleepwalking through the first three quarters of last night’s game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. And all that dicking around might have cost them the game if not for Chris Bosh blowing up with his 17 fourth-quarter points.Miami was able to sustain some furious…
So, apparently LeBron James isn’t exactly a big fan of Miami Heat prez Pat Riley’s management style. And unless Riley heads into retirement soon, James is supposedly thinking about packing up and taking his talents back to Cleveland. That’s according to FoxSportsOhio.com columnist Sam Amico, anyway…
In remarks to the media today, Miami Dolphins General Manager Jeff Ireland said, “We need a quarterback that can get us over the hump.” Though he praised Matt Moore’s solid and reliable mediocrity, he said the Dolphins “have to do better.”Ireland is clearly a man with a singular vision and…
Below is a picture of Miami Marlins outfielder Bryan Petersen and left fielder Logan Morrison together in a very small bathtub, wearing no visible clothing, while drinking red wine, as tweeted by Amy K. Nelson of SBNation…
Jeffrey Loria’s shopping spree isn’t over. Several reports indicate the Marlins are committed to outbidding anyone who stands in their way of landing recently defected Cuban star Yoennis Cespedes once the MLB declares him a free agent. It makes sense. Not only would Cespedes be the cherry atop the Marlins’…
The Miami Dolphins have not had a consistent quarterback since Dan Marino, who retired at 38. Twelve years later, the Dolphins are still fumbling around trying to land a franchise quarterback even half as good as he was. Signing a 35-year-old injured player probably won’t to help much, but don’t…
The Heat won’t stop the little fact that they didn’t become a franchise until the late ’80s get in their way of having a little 1970’s throwback uniform fun. The Heat will be wearing uniforms inspired by the old pink, err, excuse us, “magenta” and orange of the ABA’s Floridians…
LeBron James told the flu to go fuck itself, and then promptly became a righteous wrecker of ass, as he led the Miami Heat to their 98-87 beatdown of the L.A. Lakers last night. James, who dropped 31 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists, killed a baseball team owner, and made…
