The Florida Marlins’ favorite tackling dummies, the Washington Nationals, are in town this week. And you could not ask for a better match up for a team that seems to have finally regained its mojo. The Marlins had been stumbling around like a moose on tranquilizers in the last few…
With the economy in the toilet and job loss rates at an all time high, your hometown Florida Marlins seem to be perfectly built for our times. The Marlins have the lowest payroll in all of Major League Baseball, and yet are off to the best start in the entire…

Most Miami Heat fans were hoping that in his quest to land a proven veteran post presence, Pat Riley wouldn’t sacrifice the future before the recent trade deadline. There were reports flying everywhere of Riley’s infatuation with Suns forward Amar’e Stoudemire and his desire to land him at all costs…

There’s something about having the two best basketball players in the universe facing off on the same court. The 1970s had Dr. J and George Gervin, the ΄80s Magic and Bird, and the ΄90s gave us Jordan and, well, everyone else. The present day NBA is filled with great players…
For a while, it seemed as if the feisty Charlotte Bobcats just flat-out had the Miami Heat’s number. The Cats had taken down the Heat six times in their previous eight meetings, including a 100-97 win over Miami back in November. So when Charlotte came to town last December, it…
The last time they faced the Los Angeles Clippers, the Miami Heat fell to the league’s bottom dwellers by a score of 97-96. A one-point loss to one of the worst teams in basketball is never easy to swallow, especially when the loss comes courtesy of an inadvertent whistle from…
Last season, the Florida Marlins introduced the first ever Major League Baseball all-male dance squad. That in and of itself would be unique. But the Manatees are not your every day, run-of-the-mill male pep squad dancers. They’re actually your every day, run-of-the-mill average Joes. And by that, we mean they’re…
Before the NBA Draft in June, the consensus opinion by scouts and executives was that the draft class was all about highly touted guard Derrick Rose and prolific forward Michael Beasley, with everyone else a distant second place. On June 18, the Chicago Bulls made Rose the first overall pick…
Miami Heat superstar Dwyane Wade has been playing like a man possessed. D-Wade is averaging 29.5 points per game — tops in the NBA — and is among the league leaders in steals, with 2.3 per game. While the Heat has been floundering to stay within three or four above…
What a difference a year makes. Last time the New England Patriots were in town, they humiliated the Dolphins on their way to a perfect 16-0 regular season. They were the bullies on the block, complete with a juggernaut offense, a classless coach, and insufferable, clown shoe fans. But all…
It’s safe to say Dolphins fans have the psyche of a plumber who’s had one too many toilets explode in his face. This season, the team is a legit contender for not only a playoff spot, but also the AFC East title. Midway into the season, the Fins are 4-4…
Dolphins linebacker Brian Cox once famously walked into Buffalo’s Ralph Wilson Stadium while giving the finger to Bills fans as they hurled boos and flying objects towards him. The battles between Hall of Fame quarterbacks Dan Marino and Jim Kelly are legendary. And both teams were the pride of the…
It’s been an up and down season for the Miami FC Blues. Our home team is currently floating between 7th and 9th place in the United Soccer League standings and, with just seven matches left to play, time is running out for Miami to land a playoff spot. With ten…
The Florida Marlins are among the major league leaders in game-ending hits this season with nine. They’re also among the best at celebrating these kinds of victories, seeing that they have plenty of experience. Two weeks ago, in a crucial series against NL East leader Philadelphia, that game-winning hit came…
The Miami FC has moved up to fifth place in the United Soccer League standings, thanks mostly to some stellar defensive play, which helped the Blues ride an impressive five-game shutout streak during the month of June. And while they managed to win only one game during that streak (a…
It’s been some years since boxing has seen a puncher like Juan Urango – he’s got a no-holds-barred approach that blends discipline with pure power. It’s a style that brings buzz and excitement to a sport that more often than not lacks it. With his brutal, face-pummeling method of attack,…
