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…
Listen, if you’ve been stashing singles every day since the beginning of the regular season for some big playoff bet, it wouldn’t be entirely ill advised to go against your hometeam Miami Heat instincts and take the Boston Celtics to win in the first round of the 2010 NBA Playoffs…
The Dolphins have traded with the Broncos to bring in wide receiver Brandon Marshall. He’s been a Pro Bowl selection for the past two years and holds an NFL record for most receptions in a single game. The former UCF star has some off-the-field issues; let’s hope playing in Miami…
With a lot of luck and a bit of tenacity the Jets made it deep into the playoffs last year, and they are stocking up on talent this off-season like it’s an arms race. They’ve already secured Santonio Holmes and LaDainian Tomlinson, and are of course going after Jason Taylor…
Who says Marlins fans aren’t passionate? An epic brawl erupted at Saturday’s Marlins-Dodgers game at Sun Life Stadium. According to the amateur videographer behind this moving footage, “a group of young drunk guys throw peanuts to another group of young drunk dudes. Some yelling ensues before the fists start flying.”…
Other than Twitpics of Dorell Wright’s dong, it’s the worst thing a Miami Heat fan can ever see: Dwayne Wade, grimacing in pain with team doctors checking his wrist. It happened last night after the first half of Miami’s 111-98 win over the New York Knicks. But with playoff seedings…
We laid out the scenario for how the Heat could move up in the playoff rankings, and everything seems to be going as planned. The team is now tied with Bucs for the fifth spot, after beating the Knicks 111-98. Nice way to rebound from Friday’s home loss to the…
The media has been pretty quiet on this, but apparently famous golfer Tiger Woods got caught having crazy sexy time encounters with more than a dozen women who weren’t his wife. He’s back playing golf now, though, and his main sponsor, Nike, has stuck by him. Yesterday they premiered some…
Before this ordeal, we had no idea how serious thumb surgery can be. Canes QB Jacory Harris went in for surgery on his opposing digits shortly after last season and still isn’t able to throw a ball. However coach Randy Shannon says he should be doing what it is QBs…
The Miami Heat squeezed past an awful Philadelphia 76ers team last night in a win that can only be described as “Eleanor Rooseveltian.” But as unsightly as it may have been, a win is a win. Last night’s 99-95 victory was Miami’s ninth in a row. That makes nine straight…
Everyone is either still scratching their heads or wringing their hands over Jason Taylor’s meeting with the New York Jets — the same team he hates, like any good Dolphin, so very, very much. The New York Post thinks that it could just be a ploy to get a better…
[jump] The Marlins ended up winning in extra innings, no thanks to Núñez, or most every other member of a bullpen that did its best impression of a seven-layer burrito — you know, just inviting runs. Núñez blew over a fifth of his save chances last year. If given the…
