The Miami Dolphins opened their season with 28 minutes and 49 seconds of entertaining football against the Tennessee Titans. The Fins’ retooled offense seemed to be firing on all cylinders, the defense was holding its own, and the home-opener crowd seemed livelier than usual at Hard Rock Stadium. The Dolphins led 7-3 about a minute before halftime.
The Heat are out of the playoffs and Hurricane football is months away from any real action. Aside from hoping Jeffrey Loria hurries up and sell the Marlins, that means most Miami fans have entered prime season for speculating about who the Miami Dolphins will select in the NFL Draft.
What are the Dolphins’ most pressing needs as they enter one of the most exciting and crucial offseasons in recent memory? Here are a few matters that might be keeping the Fins’ front office up at night.
It’s finally setting in: Football is gone, and it’s not coming back for a long time. A lot of good came from the Miami Dolphins 2016 season, though.
The 2016 season just ended, but Miami Dolphins fans should already be looking forward to 2017.
The Miami Dolphins are shockingly not bad. This is a revelation that continues to prove itself as fact on a weekly basis, regardless of how few people believe it to be true. Unlike Santa’s sleigh in the movie Elf, Christmas spirit nor belief in the 2016 Miami Dolphins is a…
Remember all those trivial things that seemed so important to you as a kid? Yeah, those things don’t matter much anymore. Adulting is hard, and the bigger responsibilities in life tend to push out all the nonsense that got us riled up as children. But hating…
The Dolphins are on the outside looking in at the AFC playoff picture. That’s what a humiliating 38-6 loss to the Baltimore Ravens did to a team clinging to postseason hopes. Now, Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals is as close to a must-win as you’re going to see in the…
I’m sorry, Ryan Tannehill. I’m a dummy. I’m a stupid-faced fan with a stupid face that is stupid. I feel like this is a solid apology. Please accept it. Those words are not easy for me to say, but for any sports fans who pride themselves on “calling it as…
In honor of the holiday season, we’ve decided to take a look which five players in South Florida are the best bargain. Teams are like you: They aren’t above fishing something out of the scratch-and-dent bin in hopes of finding something that works well at a fraction of its retail…
Are the Miami Dolphins… good? Is that a thing? It might just be. After this Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams (at 4:05 p.m.), we will certainly be a lot closer to an answer. What is clear at this point is they aren’t that bad. Well, they were bad, but now…
Welcome back, Miami Dolphins; we’ve been waiting for you. The team’s unexpected transformation from a 1-4 team about to lie on a roster grenade into a playoff contender has been magnificent. It’s something this town is thirsty for, and it comes at exactly the right time. The comeback started just…
All South Florida fans want right now is something to believe in. This weekend they just might find it at Hard Rock Stadium around 4 p.m. The Dolphins take on the New York Jets this Sunday in a game that is as important for the Wild Card race as it is for the overall sanity of South Florida sports fans.
Kennadi Brink wrestled her first singles match for Ring of Honor, one of the most well-respected wrestling promotions in the country, two weeks ago in Fort Lauderdale. Her foray into professional wrestling began at a local wrestling show where, she says, “I was helping out in a skirt and high heels, and…
It may have been just one regular season game in October against the putrid Orlando Magic, but the Miami Heat’s 108-96 win in Wednesday’s season opener has both Heat fans and the team itself feeling pretty damn good about themselves. The 2016-17 season promises to be like no other Heat campaign…
Miami Heat fans are loyal, that much can not be disputed. Before LeBron James came to Miami in 2010 no one even thought to dispute it. The Miami Heat had progressed pretty perfectly since 1988 from the lovable underdog to a happy-to-be-there contender on to a serious contender all the…
In auditoriums, gymnasiums, and recreation centers throughout the United States, men and women in spandex costumes grapple with one another in rings assembled by volunteers. Unbeknownst to the average Floridian, there is an entire world of independent wrestling kept alive by thousands of fans, hundreds of wrestlers, and no fewer…
As if it wasn’t painful enough that the Miami Hurricanes lost to the Florida State Seminoles by one point earlier this month, Broward County Mayor Marty Kiar, a lifelong UM fan, spent Tuesday’s eight-hour commission meeting uncomfortably dressed in a white and garnet FSU jersey. “I just tried not to…
It’s time for Dolphins fans to argue about whether the team should tank to gain a higher draft pick. The debate is heated. one side is thinking long term while the other insists they are better fans. So will the Dolphins be better off losing to the Pittsburgh Steelers this Sunday?…
The tenth-ranked Miami Hurricanes face off with the twenty-third ranked Florida State Seminoles in a sneaky important game in the storied rivalry between the two in-state schools. Under first-year coach Mark Richt the Hurricanes are off to a terrific start, not because they have won their first four games, but…
Twitter was made to roasting the ridiculous. And yesterday, the ridiculous was our little football team’s crazy-looking attire. Don’t try to stop the memes and jokes. Just ride them out. The Dolphins debuted their special color rush alternate uniforms Thursday night against the Cincinnati Bengals, and the internet was glad they…
A viewing of departed Cuban American Marlins pitcher Jose Fernandez will be open to the public tonight at St. Brendan’s Catholic Church just off Galloway Road at SW 32nd Street in Miami from 5 to 11 p.m. Even more people are expected at the west plaza of Marlins Park at…
