It has begun again. Sports agents have launched attacks on African-American college football players. Now someone needs to stand up for the students. College coaches, the NCAA, and the NFL Players Association (NFPLA) certainly aren’t helping enough.
Welp, it was fun while it lasted, but at some point you knew the Miami Dolphins would eventually have to put their pants back on. The Baltimore Ravens’ 38-6 ass-humbling blowout of the Dolphins yesterday was that time. The party is over. Everyone, please help pick up these red Solo cups all over the lawn.
Wins haven’t been easy to come by for the Miami Heat this season, but according to a new study, Heat fans keep winning off the court. They don’t need science to prove they are among the best fans in all of sports — but science keeps stepping in to prove it’s true.
Once again, it’s time to recognize the beautiful, smart women who deliver the news in South Florida. Outside of our tropical oasis, female television reporters are forced to adopt conservative attire and tone down their sensuality. Not in Miami, where news women have no qualms about getting dolled up like…
The Miami Dolphins beat the San Fransisco 49ers 31-24 Sunday, running their improbable, holy-shit-is-this-really-happening-right-now winning streak to six straight games. But there’s far more important news from yesterday’s game, because a member of the Fox telecast drew a big ol’ penis on the telestrator during the game.
President-elect Donald Trump is making it known that white power will have a place in his administration. Last week, he made his campaign chairman — former Breitbart News Network executive chairman and white nationalist Stephen Bannon — his White House chief strategist. This is a man who didn’t want his…
Breaking news is coming into the New Times newsroom: These aren’t your same old Miami Dolphins. Nope. The same old Dolphins would have tanked when they lost a third starting offensive lineman before halftime of Sunday’s game against the Rams.
A new nationwide movement, promoted by firebrand columnist Shaun King, launched this week with the aim of punishing businesses with leaders who gave money to white-nationalist-enabling President-Elect Donald Trump. King’s campaign, called the DJT Resistance, has focused on the biggest Trump givers, such as New Balance, Yuengling, and Herbalife.
Hold onto your butts, South Florida — the Miami Dolphins are almost definitely not bad. They might not be good, but after a four-game winning streak that has swooped down and saved their season from the fiery pit of mock-drafts-in-November hell, we can pretty much guarantee the Fins aren’t that bad.
Just when you thought the Dolphins would go out of their way to Dolphins away another victory yesterday, they went and totally redeemed themselves. These might not be your same-old Miami Dolphins, people. We’re falling for it, aren’t we? Eh, we’ll enjoy it regardless. It feels right this time.
Janet Reno’s death from Parkinson’s disease early Monday has left many African Americans saddened. She stood up for us when no else would. At the height of 2 Live Crew’s fame, every law enforcement official in the state wanted to throw our asses in jail. Reno was the only state…
Don’t believe the polls or media pundits who claim the presidential race is too close to call. Men across America, especially white dudes who are all in for Donald Trump, need to prepare themselves for a Hillary Clinton presidency. Fifty-five years after the Women’s Liberation Movement began, males in America…
The Dolphins and the Jets basically played a playoff game this past Sunday. The losers would find themselves with a nearly impossible path to a playoff birth. The winners would still get to claim they were in the hunt for another week or two.
Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra went from driving Dad’s Bugatti to piloting Mom’s minivan. Now we’ll see if the NBA’s first Asian-American head coach is really elite — in the mold of his mentor Pat Riley or Boston Celtics legends Red Auerbach, Phil Jackson, and Gregg Popovich. The team started…
Ready or not, another Miami Heat season kicks off tonight when the Miami Heat travels to Orlando to face the Magic in the 2016-17 season opener. Tonight’s game marks a new era for the Heat and its fans, one that, for the first time in a dozen years, will not include Dwyane Wade.
Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez doesn’t hold grudges. Five years ago, I endorsed his opponent, Julio Robaina. But Gimenez and his staff never held it against me. If I asked him to address inner-city issues, he and his staff followed through. On Election Day, Gimenez will face Raquel Regalado, a county…
When Kesha exploded onto the pop charts singing the chorus on Flo Rida’s 2009 song “Right Round,” she wasn’t even given a credit on the track. She also wasn’t paid for it, an experience she alluded to by ironically converting the s in her name to a dollar sign. Later…
The National Football League has a problem with players from Miami expressing themselves. How else can one explain the recent crackdown on Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown, who was a formerly a star athlete at Miami Norland Senior High? During the first quarter of the Steelers’ October 10 game…
How nice was it yesterday seeing the Dolphins make someone else sick for once? Dolphins fans weren’t the only ones surprised that the Dolphins beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 30-15 on Sunday. Steelers defenders weren’t quite prepared for that either. They were so surprised, in fact, that one of them puked…
The Miami Dolphins season is over, and so is Ryan Tannehill’s time quarterbacking this team. The Dolphins 30-17 loss to the hapless Tennessee Titans on Sunday dropped the Dolphins to 1-4 on the year, and for all intents and purposes left them out of the playoff picture. No person in…
The University of Miami Hurricanes are slowly making their way back to national prominence under new head coach Mark Richt and senior quarterback Brad Kaaya. Now comes the undefeated team’s real test. This Saturday, the U will take on the Florida State Seminoles, a rival school that the tenth-ranked Canes…
The shrapnel is still flying off the explosion of the Big 3 era and wounding Miami Heat fans. Last week, news broke that Chris Bosh’s days of playing for the Heat were over. No more medical exams. No more additional opinions. No more Chris Bosh on the bench in a suit. No…
