Dolphins General Manager Jeff Ireland apparently has the biggest balls ever, or the littlest amount of tact and class possible. Because normal people would not ask prospective players if their moms were whores straight to their face.Ireland and the Fins brought in former Oklahoma State wide receiver Dez Bryant for…
The Dolphins’ Ricky Williams has always been one of the NFL’s most complicated players. ESPN’s 30 for 30 documentary series, which also brought us The U, focuses on Williams’s life and his hiatus from football in 2004 in Run, Ricky, Run. It premieres tomorrow night on the channel, with a special…
Greatness is forged through adversity: when one’s back is against the wall, when one is faced with a do-or-die situation, or when someone keeps reminding everybody that WE JUST MIGHT BE WITNESSING HIS LAST GAME IN A HEAT UNIFORM!Dwayne Wade is greatness. Even when besieged with the burden of being…
Marlins fans, that proud clan of several hundred clad in teal and black, didn’t spend their off-season dreaming of free-agent fire-throwers. They didn’t lie awake imagining Matt Holiday patrolling left field, or drooling over how the NL East could fall their way. Nope. Fish faithful spent a long winter chewing…
The Miami Dolphins entered the NFL draft with a plethora of needs, most notably at outside linebacker, safety, nose tackle and tight end. They spent their first pick on a defensive end, while pulling the ole switch-a-roo on us and moving Randy Starks to the defensive tackle position. PING! Defensive…
Welcome back to our second night of NFL Draft Live-Blogging! Brought to you in 3D!* (*-not really, but everything else is in 3D, so why not). Tonight we’ll roll through the second and third rounds, where the Dolphins hold the 40th and 73rd overall picks. Tonight’s blog will be more…
Here we go. Live-blogging the NFL Draft. Pretty much like watching the draft with someone as losery as yourself. Only on the Internet! This is the first time the NFL Draft is being held in prime time. Because you’re not buying enough KFC Double Downs for your fat-ass kids, dammit!…
Things aren’t looking too good for our beloved Miami Heat in the playoffs. Especially after their disastrous 106-77 loss to the Celtics Tuesday. Even an inspired performance by Dwyane Wade can’t ensure a win. Yes, we’ll get hometown advantage in tomorrow’s game, but we think it’s time for the Heat to pull out every…
Fans are the biggest losers in Jason Taylor’s decision to head to the Jets, but we’re still not sure exactly with whom to be angry: Taylor for heading out of town or Bill Parcels and company for apparently not caring too much that Taylor was packing his bags. This morning, ESPN reported the Dolphins actually…
Jennifer Lopez is a huge Dolphins fan. She pretty much has to be, considering husband Marc Anthony is a minority owner. While promoting her new movie, The Back-up Plan, on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno last night, she made a first-round draft prediction.”We have the 12th pick, you know, so…
Point guard Kenny Hasbrouck is the newest member of the Miami Heat, signing with them on March 16th out of the developmental league, but he’s already found himself in a drunk driving scandal. The charges date back to February 5th, before the Heat signed the former Siena College star.Hasbrouck was…
In a game that could only described as “refried ass, ” the Miami Heat were walloped by the Boston Celtics 106-77 in last night’s game two of the first round NBA Playoffs. The Heat managed to keep things close in the first quarter, rebounding after a slow start and even…
Jason Taylor deserved better. Certainly better than having to join the Jets. Now his former teammate Zach Thomas, who spent 11 seasons with the Dolphins himself and is Taylor’s brother-in-law, is calling out the front office for their shady and disrespectful handling of the situation.”I’m not trying to be hard…
So the Florida Atlantic University Owls and the Hilltoppers of Western Kentucky were all set to wage a friendly contest of baseball earlier this week up in Boca when some rain showers moved in and pretty much ruined everything. Did FAU mope about it? Did they lay around the clubhouse…
The saga of Jason Taylor’s off-season has finally come to an end. The linebacker — who spent 12 seasons with the Dolphins (six of those as a Pro Bowler), was active in the South Florida community, and was one of the franchise’s most popular players, even during low points –…
Edwin Valero racked up an impressive 29-0 record in his professional boxing career, all ending with KOs, with 19 in the first round. The Venezuelan was never destined to be popular in Miami, considering he had a giant portrait of Hugo Chávez tattooed on his chest, but he’s dead now. He…
The Celtics already had Game 1 on lock down. All Quentin Richardson was doing was running his mouth a little during trash time. And yet enraged, silly man-child Kevin Garnett couldn’t keep it together. You’ve probably watched this highlight 15 times since Saturday (especially because it’s a lot more entertaining…
Black is the color or mourning, evil and high school goths who’s parents just don’t understand. It is also now the color of the Miami Heat’s playoff hopes. Every time the Heat get into the playoffs they seem to get color crazy, picking red, white or black to rally around…
We had such hopes for Ted Ginn Jr., but the guy just didn’t live up to them. Hell, we suggested after his game-losing, disastrous performance against the Saints last year the only way he could make it up to the Miami community was by swimming to Cuba and personally deposing…
Jason Taylor is like the pretty girl at the High School prom who used to go steady with the prom king (The Dolphins), and showed up single just in case there was a chance they could rekindle it. But The Dolphins seem taken with the hot new exchange student at…
It’s official, the Dolphins signed talented but sometimes controversial Brandon Marshall to a $50 million, five season contract making him the highest paid receiver in NFL history. We were hoping the Fins would have some big trick under their sleeves this off season, and this apparently was it. Let’s see what the…
Poor, poor Florida Marlins. They have just 600 fans, and one of them happens to be Scott Stapp. This Jesus-looking dude, if you’ll remember, was the lead singer of Christian rock band Creed. (Yes, they were a thing once). In 2004, after peaking with the band, he went solo, crashed…
