Miami, the football mecca of the United States, is now one of the most progressive cities in professional and collegiate sports. In the past month, the Miami Dolphins and the Miami Hurricanes have made minority hires that break down the good old boys’ network.
The right man for the job was Cristobal, who has proven he can coach a top-five program and is loved by the football community.
Black people have been souring on the Clintons and the Democrats since Bill left office in 2000.
Back in the ’90s, Snoop Dogg and I didn’t like each other much. In fact, we had our own East Coast versus West Coast rivalry. Snoop and Dr. Dre dissed me on the track Fuck wit Dre Day, and I responded with a song called, Cowards in Compton Get Sprayed…
With federal judge Ursula Ungaro’s decision to throw out a lawsuit against BuzzFeed News in U.S. District Court in Miami Wednesday, President Donald Trump took a body blow. Ungaro rejected a suit filed by Aleksej Gubarev, the head of Webzilla, an Aventura-based tech company, that asserted BuzzFeed’s publication of the so-called Trump…
For the past seven years, Miami Carol City, Miami Central, Miami Norland, and Miami Northwestern High School football programs have been taking each other out to clear a path to the District 6A state championship. Central began this remarkable run by claiming the state title for three straight years, from…
Yesterday, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio appeared in the pages of the Atlantic magazine announcing that he, quite suddenly, loves “workers.” The senator, who has been accused of being a metaphysical vehicle through which rich business tycoons launder bad ideas, is now apparently a big fan of labor unions. He thinks the…
These are tough days for the University of Miami football program. After beginning the season ranked in the top ten and supposedly ready to compete again for the national title, the Hurricanes ended with a disappointing 7-5 record that included the third four-game losing streak of head coach Mark Richt’s tenure…
Former president and repeatedly accused sex offender Bill Clinton is coming to Miami on Saturday, where he’ll help fundraise for incoming congresswoman and former Health and Human Services Secretary Donna Shalala, who has a bunch of debt leftover from her campaign, according to the Miami Herald. The news, however, is not…
Fifty-three year old Denise Marsh was killed this past weekend when a distracted driver plowed through a group of bicyclists on State Road 84. Two others were critically injured and were still in the hospital as of late Monday. A 33-year-old woman, Nicole Vanderweit, was driving a Honda Fit when she…
As part of the GOP’s tax overhaul plan, President Donald Trump and Republicans snuck in a measure that will accelerate the gentrification of poor African-American and Hispanic neighborhoods. In recent months, governors across the nation have been designating so-called Opportunity Zones in their states. Gov. Rick Scott named 427 communities…
The recount in Florida’s gubernatorial race, which is expected to end today, gave Andrew Gillum a final Hail Mary after he narrowly lost the November 6 election to Ron DeSantis. But the Tallahassee mayor would have won decisively if he had done more to connect with African-American voters.
Florida voters really blew it in 2016. They elected Donald Trump. They reelected Marco-effing-Rubio. Both of those guys now spend every morning tweeting in their bathrobes while marching the nation ever closer to fascism and the climate-change apocalypse. Things are very, very bad right now, and it is largely Florida’s fault.
The race for Florida governor is the most heated in the history of Sunshine State politics. Why? When the black man runs against a white man, all hell breaks loose. It shouldn’t be that way. Voters should be color blind when it comes to electing the best person for the…
Donald Trump is on a mission to gaslight the United States into a civil war. He has created a climate where racist white nationalists feel comfortable attacking law-abiding citizens. Heck, he recently admitted he is a nationalist. He’s not hiding it anymore.
The most telling moment of the Andrew Gillum-Ron DeSantis Florida gubernatorial debate on CNN Sunday night came when moderator Jake Tapper broached the subject of DeSantis’ racist comments and actions during the campaign.
One year ago, Canes fans were applauding Mark Richt for reinventing the way we eat sandwiches and thanking him for being the savior that the University of Miami football program desperately needed. Fast-forward to this season and the narrative on social media and Hurricanes message boards is that Richt should…
Derek Jeter is erasing the memory of Jeffrey Loria by being an even worse owner. Instead of building a team fans will pay to see, the Miami Marlins CEO has been wasting time getting rid of the $2.5 million home-run sculpture inside Marlins Park and leaking images of possible new…
Brock Osweiler threw for 380 yards and three touchdowns this past Sunday, leaving the 4-2 Miami Dolphins tied for first place in the AFC East in mid-October. His big game has also left the Dolphins with a full-blown quarterback controversy on their hands.
This Sunday at 1 p.m. at Hard Rock Stadium, the Miami Dolphins will meet the Chicago Bears in what will undoubtedly be a fork in this season’s road for the Dolphins. A loss to Chicago means the Dolphins would find themselves at 3-3 after an electric, undefeated 3-0 start, officially chasing…
“Women, y’all make me mad, man. I hate the fact that women can’t control your anger. Like, women, y’all need to learn how to put a cap in your anger… Men, we have a cap.” An excerpt from Kevin Hart’s Seriously Funny tour says it all. Popular sets from all four of his standup tours, one of which will hit the American Airlines Arena this Saturday, feature the acclaimed comedian labeling women “bitches” and “crazy.” Hart’s routines from past to present include jokes that normalize derogatory language about women and mock the gender roles in relationships.
This Saturday, the Miami Hurricanes and the Florida State Seminoles will meet for the 63rd time in their storied rivalry. For decades, UM-FSU has been the most important game on both teams’ schedules. This time around, though, the matchup is bigger than just this season. Saturday’s game is a mile marker for…
