Mayor’s son offers hope.

As we near the end of 2018, it’s time to look back and reflect on the sports year that was. Although it hasn’t been the most memorable of years for Miami, there were a handful of stars worth singling out. These five 2018 sports people of the year made an otherwise unspectacular 2018…

Ross was visibly over it as the Dolphins lost.

A survey of 1,500 NFL fans conducted by TickTock and provided to the Washington Examiner focuses on how some NFL fans hold athletes to a higher standard than others do. And Dolphins fans pop up in most of the fields as the fan base least likely to be the life of a party or the group you want to invite to Christmas dinner.

Former Miami Marlins president David Samson appeared on Miami ESPN host Dan Le Batard’s radio program this morning. The two men were doing damage control after New Times yesterday published a video of Samson appearing onstage at Le Batard’s 50th birthday party over the weekend. It showed Samson bragging about conning Miami taxpayers…

At this point, every single person who worked for the Miami Marlins when Jeffrey Loria owned the team should be under strict FBI surveillance. Robert Mueller should be stalking these people. They keep revealing themselves to be vampires.

Sequels are notoriously terrible. The Godfather III, Rocky V, and Jaws 3-D come to mind. Oh, and the week after one of the most memorable Dolphins wins of all time came a terrible followup. Seven days after the “Miracle in Miami,” there was no miracle in Minneapolis. Instead of making a stunning comeback, the Dolphins died a sleepy, serene, uneventful death against the Minnesota Vikings.

When there is an intersection of profit and making fun of the Patriots, the internet never fails to capitalize.

The Miami Heat’s “Vice” jerseys are the best in the National Basketball League. ESPN today declared them the “coolest” uniforms in basketball. More important, South Floridians love the alternate color scheme: Neon Vice merchandise is all over the region. The jerseys are the highest-selling alternate uniforms in NBA history, and the team is now even peddling the neon Vice logo on car license plates.

We find the perfect gift for Miami sports stars.

The Dolphins were 69 yards from the end zone, down five points with seven seconds left and no timeouts remaining. The game, and likely the season, seemed over. Knowing the Dolphins had but one shot at a Hail Mary attempt, the Patriots dropped back tight end Rob Gronkowski as a…

The Heat needs to do the right thing and start the greatest player in the history of the franchise.

Neymar’s response to Beckham: “David, it’s done! I’ll come to Miami, your city, your team.”

The Miami Heat, which collapsed in the third quarter during last night’s game against the Orlando Magic, is an unmitigated disaster.

There wasn’t much talk leading up to Sunday’s Dolphins-Buffalo Bills game. It was just another sleepy December matchup between two listless teams perpetually fighting to see who can finish runner-up to the New England Patriots in the AFC East. Nobody outside Buffalo and…

Every Heat game played this year is one less chance to witness the greatness of Dwyane Wade. As games disappear from the schedule like figures in Back To The Future photos, the reality still hasn’t fully set in that soon Wade will no longer perform that glorious shot fake…

Both glass-half-full and half-empty brands of Miami sports fans can agree on one thing: The Miami sports landscape could use some serious injections of energy and excitement. This is one of the most dynamic cities in America. It’s vibrant and proud. No one could ever mistake Miami for some middle…

The Dolphins’ Sunday afternoon matchup with the Indianapolis Colts was basically a playoff game. At 5-5, losers of five of their last seven, and toward the bottom of a bunch of teams tied for the last playoff spot in the AFC, the Dolphins couldn’t afford to lose to the Colts,…

Ryan Tannehill is back behind center for the Miami Dolphins this Sunday after a five-game absence due to multiple shoulder issues. He returns just in time for a pivotal game against Andrew Luck and the Indianapolis Colts, who are also 5-5 and tied for the final Wild Card spot in the AFC…

This is a time to give thanks and acknowledge all the good people and things for which you are truly grateful. Thanksgiving is a happy day when everyone comes together to feast. Nobody hates it. It’s almost impossible to be negative on a day all about food, family, and watching football…
