Hassan Whiteside is facing quite a decision — does he opt in to the final year of his contract with the Miami Heat that would pay him $27 million, or does he opt out, bet on himself, and test the free agency waters this off-season?
Thanks to a draft-day trade, quarterback Josh Rosen will start the second year of his NFL career with the Miami Dolphins. Maybe you heard about this. Some are fans of the idea. Others — namely, well-known character flaw expert and part-time Miami Herald Dolphins beat writer Armando Salguero — hate the…
College football is still three-plus months away, but Las Vegas is already putting down some lines in the sand with predictions on how the sports’ most prominent programs will perform in 2019. For the Miami Hurricanes, the numbers are less than flattering.
Now that the NFL draft is in the Miami Dolphins’ rear-view mirror, the team needs to reassess its plan for next season. The addition of a top-flight defensive player in Clemson defensive lineman Christian Wilkins, the draft-day swap of second- and fifth-round picks for quarterback Josh Rosen, and the…
From the look of things, Mr.Wilkins should provide some much-needed character to the Dolphins locker room.
Chris Grier and Brian Flores rock.
Wind ripped violently through the fuselage. A man in a dark helmet and shades shouted instructions to a fellow passenger in a lemon-yellow helmet and white-framed Oakleys, but his words were drowned out by the roar, so hand signals were exchanged. The yellow-helmeted one inched toward the five-foot-wide open door,…
In a perfect world, the Dolphins would cut ties with Fitzpatrick before training camp.
The NFL Draft took place in Nashville last night, and the story of the night was the Arizona Cardinals’ selection of Oklahoma Sooners quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Kyler Murray as the first overall pick. The San Francisco 49ers followed by taking Ohio State Buckeyes defensive end Nick Bosa, and the New York Jets selected Alabama defensive lineman Quinnen Williams.
The NFL Draft kicks off tomorrow night and continues through Saturday evening in Nashville, Tennessee. The Miami Dolphins hold the 13th overall pick in Thursday’s first round. These are the facts. Everything else is mystery. Most predictions will be proven wrong by this time next year. None of us knows…
Now that the Dwyane Wade farewell tour is over, people are starting to focus on the next big event on the sports calendar — Thursday’s NFL Draft. Here’s some news: The Dolphins need good football players. Beginning with their first pick in Thursday’s first round, 13th overall, the Dolphins can start plugging some holes in the roster.
Imagine you’re Burnie, the mascot for the Miami Heat, sitting there on a quiet Tuesday morning, not bothering anyone, just sipping coffee while reading the newspaper and staring out onto Biscayne Bay. It’s the off-season and you’re finally looking forward to some much-needed downtime. Then a single tweet fired off…
In a clip posted for his 3.3 million Instagram followers this past March 28, Oakland Raiders star Antonio Brown stands in a weight room at Hollywood Hills High School while grasping a comically large medicine ball. The song “Baby Birkin” by the rapper Gunna reverberates through the gym, painted various…
It’s been a week, but Miami Heat fans are still coming to terms with the fact that Dwyane Wade will never play again. It’s sad. On the bright side, though, that Spotify break-up playlist filled with ’90s Brian McKnight and Boyz II Men songs is coming in handy again. The…
Earlier this month, the Florida Panthers made a bunch of posters and a literal billboard emblazoned with the sentence “Q IS HERE” — a reference to the team’s new coach, Joel Quenneville — and some people now believe it’s a reference to the QAnon conspiracy theory.
Now that the Dwyane Wade retirement tour is over, the Heat faces a troubling reality — next year’s team is sure to look a lot like this year’s team that missed the playoffs, only without the pleasant distraction of Wade.
Dwyane Wade’s farewell was perfect. Well, almost perfect. His #OneLastDance retirement tour could have used an ending that involved a playoff appearance, but a 30-point performance that included jumbotron messages from everyone from his sons to President Barack Obama, and a triple-double in the season finale in Brooklyn Wednesday night…
After Dwyane Wade scored 30 points in his final home game for the Miami Heat during last night’s victory over the Philadelphia 76ers, it’s just about time to say goodbye. The music on Wade’s #OneLastDance retirement tour ends tonight when the Heat plays the season finale against the Brooklyn Nets…
Saying there is a tremendous amount of pressure on the Miami Heat heading into its 8 p.m. Friday matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves is an understatement — so much is on the line, with so little time left in the season, and almost zero room for error. The Heat’s disappointing…
The Miami Marlins’ 2019 season is officially in full swing. The team managed to split the season-opening home series against the Colorado Rockies and look scrappy despite losing two to the Mets. Tonight, they go up against New York ace Jacob deGrom. Although the Fish are expected to be the…
One down, 161 to go. If the Marlins’ Opening Day, 6-3 home loss to the Colorado Rockies is any indication, a little patience and understanding from fans will definitely go a long way this year. The intrigue is there, but the odds will be against the team daily. From…
The results are in and we’re calling it: The Miami Heat got the best LeBron. It’s over. Break out those special cigars and that bottle of limited edition small-batch whiskey you were saving. We freakin’ did it, Miami. Cleveland Cavaliers? Yeah, LeBron willed…
