Florida Atlantic University certainly knows legendary coaches. Howard Schnellenberger is one of the most celebrated coaches in college history (on top of a National Championship at Miami, he also famously recruited Joe Nammoth to Alabama). But this week he will travel to Denton, Texas to play the University of North…
When Gloria Estefan made the deal with Stephen M. Ross to become a minority owner in the Miami Dolphins in June, the terms of the deal were not released. Anyone who watched ESPN this weekend, though, saw video proof of the price Ms. Estefan paid to play the game, so to…
flickr.com No pressure, Tim, it’s only your brain. Though the University of Florida and Coach Urban Meyer have been nothing but careful with their words, I don’t think there was ever really a doubt that Tim Tebow would play in tonight’s big game against LSU. This, just two weeks removed from…
[jump] racing ended completely. “As tracks fold one by one across the United States, it becomes less and less clear why the state of Florida continues to suffer the cruelty of dog racing,” Grey2K’s president, Christine Dorchak, told me. “Of the 24 remaining dog tracks nationwide, 13 are hosted by…
You probably didn’t see it. I only realized what it was when I watched the replays again last night. After Vontae Davis stepped in front of Lee Evans on Sunday to intercept Bills quarterback Trent Edwards and then took it into the endzone for a score he celebrated in a fashion…
[jump] He resigned (was fired) after only a few weeks for saying Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb was overrated because the media wanted to see a black quarterback succeed. To be fair to Limbaugh though, at the time he made those statements it had only been 15 years since…
[jump] Opinions on the current economic situation in this country are like assholes – so far all they’ve produced is shit and thinking about them during sex can make things awkward (and yeah, everyone seems to have one). And though I think all of Michael Moore’s films are well-intended (and…
With Chad Pennington facing what could very well be career-ending surgery tomorrow from sports surgeon extraordinaire, Birmingham-based Dr. James Andrews, he had some thoughts for the media on what he’s going through, where he goes from here, the hit that separated his shoulder, and his time so far in South…
There are a lot of obvious things to dislike about Texas: the obesity, the racism, the arrogance, the football obsession, the political leaders. But there are also many things to vindicate the Lone Star State: barbecue that makes your toes curl, beautiful women, a tangerine sky that stretches for miles,…
[jump] Six-foot-one, 224-pound Tyler Thigpen – not to be confused with Tecmo Bowl go-to wide out Yancy Thigpen or the perfunctory Peanuts playboy Pigpen – went to high school in South Carolina, where he was all-state as a running back. After graduating in 2002, he attended Coastal Carolina University in…
But all this doesn’t mean we can’t still learn something from the show. (It does appear on the Learning Channel.) Let’s take crack, for example. Sure, they bust other users and sellers on the show, but you can’t watch for more than eight minutes without someone whipping out a crack…
Hedge fund manager Seth Tobias was found dead, floating in the pool of his massive Jupiter mansion, after Labor Day weekend 2007. The $5 million, nearly 7,000-square-foot estate is in gated Bear’s Club, literally situated on a golf course. Tobias, who was 44 and involved in a tumultuous (to put…
flickr.com Arianne Prevost and her trophy. Arianne Prevost, 23, embarked on her first gator hunt earlier this month in the Everglades with her boyfriend and a friend. Prevost, a waitress, missed last year’s hunt because she was pregnant (this year she’s the proud mother of 10-month-old Baleigh). Read more of…
If you’ve spent your life wondering if you might ever see a High-Definition screening of The Wizard of Oz at a cineplex, tonight you have you’re answer. To honor the 70th anniversary of the film’s premiere, Turner Classic Movies is having a nationwide, one night-only showing at movie theatres across the…
[jump] In this video, Anderson Cooper examines Browne’s claims about kidnap victim Shawn Hornbeck. Browne told Hornbeck’s parents that their son was dead, and his body would be found “in a wooded area.” Hornbeck was found alive, living with his kidnapper in the opposite direction from where Sylvia indicated. Randi…
[jump] Scheduled guests include linebacker turned restaurateur, Kim Bokamper; legendary wide receiver Nat Moore (remember the “helicopter catch”?); another linebacker turned restaurateur, John Offerdahl (you can ask him why so many of his restaurants have gone the way of D. Wade’s); and of course the lovely Dolphins cheerleaders (you can…
I can admit it: I really don’t know that much about training circus elephants. And I dare say most Juice readers don’t either. But there is still something unsettling about seeing videos in which these magnificent beasts are slapped with sticks, shocked with prods, and left with deep gashes from training hooks…
No film in history has had more impact on American cinema than The Wizard of Oz, the prototype for the monster-sized, soundtrack-infused color pictures that have come to define big-studio movies. Of course, it also paved the way for movie-inspired merchandise, sequels, remakes, and retellings. But ignore the orgy of…
The last time we saw Kimbo Slice (aka Kevin Ferguson) he was on his knees at the BankAtlantic Center getting punched in the head by a pink-haired smoothie salesman. In 14 seconds, it seemed his mixed martial arts career – and the entire league built around him – was done. As…
[jump] From this, we have the Tea Party protests (where the other half of the country finally learned that government is bad, especially if it’s run by people with whom you disagree) and the under-reported upon 9-12 Project. Beck lists nine “principles” (they involve liking America and God and family and…
You may have seen Daniel Rosenblit’s van cruising by the beach in Fort Lauderdale, or parked next to him as he preaches on the streets of Broward county. The large cargo van has the paradoxical phrase “Living Martyr” on the side. Recently Broward Sheriff’s deputies charged the Living Martyr, a…
