We’ll take it! The Miami Dolphins managed to simultaneously have the biggest sad trombone sound game, and glorious comeback game in one fell swoop on Sunday, when they outlasted Washington 17-10. Entering the game the Fins were the talk of the NFL as a strong up-and-coming team that was going…
Holy smokes it’s finally upon us. FOOTBALL SEASON OMAH GAHH. More to the point, the Dolphins are back. And this time, they’re armed with a heck of a whole lot of analysts and experts picking them to actually, seriously, for-real make the playoffs this season. Some have even predicted them…
The University of Miami Hurricanes was once known as a fierce, unbeatable team that dominated opponents, won National Championships, and was an NFL talent factory. That, sadly, is ancient history. And things have seemed to have gotten appreciably worse during the Al Golden era. But, no worries, Canes fans. A…
Pelting rain has glued red-and-yellow-striped jerseys onto the soaked bodies of 6,000 fans scattered around Lockhart Stadium’s metal bleachers. The waterlogged pitch looks more like a World War I battle site than a soccer field, but the true believers in the stands chant and sing ecstatically. For the first time…
On Thursday, the Miami Dolphins officially unveiled the newly renovated Sun Life Stadium with its sleeker, more fan-friendly look. And, so far, the reviews seem to be very good.

Last month, the big brains at Harvard predicted that this season’s Superbowl would be a matchup between the Seattle Seahawks and Miami Dolphins, so it’s never too early to start the trash talking. Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett called Fins quarterback “overrated,” and said that the Miami signal caller is…
Hey there, Fort Lauderdale. Say hello to your newest, giant neighbor. This offseason, the Miami Dolphins made 6-foot-4, 307 pound Ndamukong Suh the highest-paid defensive tackle in the history of football, when they gave him a sex-year, $114 million contract to anchor the defensive line. And now Suh has used…
The Florida Panthers — known for their outside-the-box ahh, screw it hiring tactics — are back at it again. From the same team that brought you open goalie tryouts comes a chance to audition for the teams PA announcer position, anthem singer, and radio play-by-play positions for the upcoming season. If being…
It was one drive. And it was preseason. But it was enough to show that Ryan Tannehill is on the upswing, and poised to bust things up this season. In his lone drive of the Dolphins pre-season loss to the Bears Thursday night, Miami’s starting quarterback went 6-for-7 with 56…
The Miami Dolphins officially kick off their 2015 campaign tonight in their first pre-season matchup in Chicago when they face the Bears. Is it just us or does it feel like football season ended three years ago? It’s not just us? Oh good. Because it seems that way. But, alas,…
Back during the 2013 season, Richie Incognito became the face of bullying in the NFL when it was revealed that he hazed and used racial slurs against then-Miami Dolphins teammate Jonathan Martin. Incognito was suspended and then released and stayed unemployed for the entire 2014 season. But this offseason, Incognito was…
When Kimon Korres’ friends came into town, the first thing they wanted to do was go boating. “Find a boat online, and I’ll take care of the rest,” Korres told them. But finding an affordable, reliable, and convenient boat was no easy feat. To rent a boat for the day…
Baseball is dumb. And the Marlins’ former general manager now manager Dan Jennings has just reiterated that for us all. On Wednesday night, the Marlins earned a 5-3 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks behind a dominant performance from the usually-dominant Jose Fernandez. But Fernandez had a miscue in the bottom…
The BB&T Center, tucked away in a corner in Sunrise across the street from the Sawgrass Mills Mall, has been the home to the Florida Panthers since 1998, when the team moved from the old Miami Arena. This was two years after the Cats made their historic run to the…
Fan rankings, and deciding what makes a good sports fan and what doesn’t is dumb. But that didn’t stop the University of Emory from culling data and putting together a ranking of best and worst NFL fan bases. And — shocking news here — Miami Dolphins fans ranked dead last…
After hurdling over legislative red tape and squabbles over spending, it looks like a new spring training complex will be built in West Palm Beach after Gov.

To the absolute shock of no one, the Miami Marlins have been pretty terrible this season. And things got progressively worse this week when star slugger Giancarlo Stanton was forced to the 15-day DL with a broken hand. But every now and then, the baseball gods’ benevolence shines through and…
Speculation ran rampant as to who the Miami Heat would select with the tenth overall pick in Thursday night’s NBA Draft. Would it be a shooter? Someone who can defend the perimeter? A swingman who could step in and contribute right away? Turns out, it ended up being the steal…
The NBA Draft is tonight, and your Miami Heat are picking 10th. That’s pretty exciting, given the craptactular season they had last year when they lost LeBron James, and then Chris Bosh almost died. Yet, even with the excitement of draft night, the Heat enter the off-season in turbulent waters…
Ever since the beginning of June, Dwyane Wade and the Miami Heat have been in a weird public spat over his contract negotiations. Wade wants more money, while the Heat want him to not opt out so they can spend on getting better. It’s a bit of a pickle. But…
When Dwyane Wade signed a two-year deal worth $31,125,000 with the Heat last summer, fans were shocked. The shocking part wasn’t that Wade was sticking with the only team he’s ever known in his 12-year career, but that he was re-upping for an estimated $10 million less than what he…
