Yesterday the Orlando Sentinel wrote an explosive story about how a soccer team from Miami had allegedly instigated a vicious on-field brawl during a tournament at Disney World. “Parents who witnessed the Saturday afternoon altercation painted a particularly vivid picture of parents and players from a Miami team storming the…
Earlier this morning, FIU football players went to Crandon Park Beach, perhaps Miami’s most family friendly stretch of sand, for a workout and team barbecue.

In their latest doomed effort to goose ticket sales the Miami Marlins will be hosting a “Legend of Wrestling Night” on August 24. Sixteen former professional wrestlers will be on hand for you to, I don’t know, look at I guess according to Biz of Baseball. There will be three…
Two months after David Beckham jetted to Miami to meet with a Bolivian billionaire and tour stadiums around Dade County, reports are trickling out of Britain this week suggesting that South Florida soccer fans’ hopes might just be true. Becks is close to announcing that’s he’s going to start an…
Mike Dee is changing teams, changing coasts and changing leagues. The Miami Dolphins CEO has resigned and will take over as president and CEO of the San Diego Padres…
Be honest with yourselves, Dolphins fans: After watching two straight ticker-tape parades down Biscayne Boulevard by that other pro team in town, it’s gotten harder and harder to get jazzed up for preseason Fins games that basically amount to flag football contests. But this is 2013, and for the first…
Despite reports that the Miami Heat would not use the NBA’s amnesty clause this offseason, several Heat beat reporters are tweeting that Mike Miller’s agent has been informed that the veteran would be waived under the rule…
LeBron James is going to get a second ring this summer. This one will be of the wedding variety. TMZ reports that invitations to the September wedding between James and fiancée Savannah Brinson have gone out to guests, but the invites are low on details. In fact, guests are instructed…
The NBA off-season is less “off” and more a whole different full season as teams frantically try to keep up with the Joneses during a down time that begins just days after the finals. This week, free agency opened and teams began signing the players they think could put them…
When the Heat signed Chris “Birdman” Andersen in January, Riptide chuckled and called the move a “long shot to fix the Miami Heat’s rebounding woes but… a lead-pipe lock to fix the lack of hilarious people on the Heat.” We Dewey-defeats-Truman’d that one. Birdman re-energized the entire squad, ripped down…
Well, tasteful male nudity has kept Don Bailey Carpets in business for all these years, so the fact that the Miami Marlins’ sole remaining star, Giancarlo Stanton, decided to strip down to his birthday suit for ESPN Magazine’s annual Body Issue could only help the Marlins’ ticket sales. Pics after…
Colin Kaepernick just led the San Francisco 49ers to an NFC championship, but yesterday he had another team on his mind. Last season’s breakout QB was spotted wearing a Miami Dolphins hat at a Fourth of July party…
Tim Hardaway, the man who once proudly and loudly proclaimed, “I hate gay people,” is now the first Floridian to sign a new petition to put gay marriage back on the ballot in the Sunshine State…
Ah, high school — easier times for most of us. Our daily concerns back then seem so insignificant now. Your biggest worry was making sure you weren’t bored and somehow stayed awake through terrible classes. Also, most things that were hilarious back then don’t seem so funny anymore. Our compilation…
The signs were everywhere during Washington Nationals home games last month. One read “ZOMBIE MODE” with red-ink blood dripping from the letters. Another showed a baseball with a chunk bitten out of it and “Eat Face Win!” In fact, drop the hashtag #EatFace into Twitter this second and you’ll find…
Perhaps even more so than in America, baseball is the national past time in Cuba. So, you’d figure when an entire MLB game aired on Cuban TV for the first time in more than 50 years, some of the population might have been excited. Eh, apparently not. Most of the…
In a sad way, the Miami Marlins pretty stellar performance during the month of June only underscores how utterly horrible the team played during April and May. The Marlins’ 14-9 record during June was actually the second-best record during the month in the National League (only behind the Padres), and…
The three-pointer that sent Game 6 of the NBA Finals to overtime might be well be the shot of Ray Allen’s career, but that doesn’t mean it will be the last big-game trey he knocks down for the Heat. Allen just exercised a $3.2 million option to stay with the…
Demetrius Jackson hasn’t actually played in a single high school football game yet, but next year he’ll be playing for the Miami Hurricanes. Jackson officially committed to the school today…
It’s been a decade since a University of Miami Hurricane went in the NBA Draft’s first round. But this year’s edition of the Canes made history by winning the ACC outright and rolling into the tournament’s Sweet Sixteen, so it’s appropriate that their star would land higher in the draft…
It’s almost as if the school isn’t in the midst of a never-ending NCAA investigation. According to 24/7 Sports’ composite rankings of the major recruiting services, Al Golden has amassed the fourth best recruiting class for 2014 in the nation. The team moved up nine places since the last standings…
People already want to know how the Miami Heat will go from “Re-Heat” to “Three-Heat,” something only three teams (L.A., Boston, and Chicago) have done. How will they keep the motivation at the same level it’s been during the past three seasons? How do they circumvent salary cap restrictions enough…
