We waited eight months for that? This past Monday, Hurricanes fans got a glimpse of their 2014 squad in a nationally televised 31-13 blowout loss to the Louisville Cardinals. The fans were not impressed. The play was much the same as what we saw all last season, which was incredibly…

Tonight the Miami Marlins should call up Giancarlo Stanton’s agent and offer the ballplayer a $200 million contract. Yes, tonight. Not tomorrow. Not next week. Not this off-season. Tonight. It’s becoming increasingly clear that one surprisingly not-totally-crappy Miami Marlins season is not enough to convince Giancarlo Stanton that Miami is…
The Miami Dolphins complete their preseason schedule tonight against the St.Louis Rams, and a lot of questions still remain. Entering the 2014-15 season, the team wants to change its mediocre ways and get back into the playoffs for the first time still 2010. If that is to happen, a lot…
The Miami Hurricanes will kick off their 2014-15 football season Labor Day against the Louisville Cardinals in a rematch of their 36-9 Russell Athletic Bowl loss this past December.

Bye-bye, Sony. The tennis tournament on Key Biscayne has a different, slightly less commercialized name and a new sponsor. The tournament will now be known as the Miami Open Presented by Itau. Not sure what Itau is? It’s one of Brazil’s largest banks, naturally, which only makes sense considering the…
Just because LeBron James decamped back to Cleveland, it doesn’t mean that the Miami Heat’s fashion credentials are going anywhere. In fact, it’s the only professional sports team we can think of where not one but two players have their own designer necktie lines. Following Dwyane Wade’s collaboration with The…
It’s official: Miami Dolphins football is back. Well, the real thing is still a few weeks off, but the Dolphins fumbled away a game-winning drive twice in a matter of 30 seconds in their preseason loss to the Falcons last Friday, so you can tell the real thing is just…
Further cementing the notion that Miami is now the American capital of performance enhancing drugs controversy, the Miami Dolphins’ safety Reshad Jones had been suspended for the first four games of the season by the NFL.

The ball screamed off Pirates shortstop Jordy Mercer’s bat, clocking 101 mph as it rocketed toward the outfield. Sixty feet later, it smacked into the head of Marlins relief pitcher Dan Jennings, catching him flush before he could react. It’s a nightmare scenario for any pitcher, and the video of…

Last month, Ohio newspapers refused to take The Dan LeBatard Show’s money for a simple “You’re Welcome” message to LeBron James in their publications; it appears they have chosen poorly. Thwarted in their first bet to poke fun at LeBron’s lack of thanking Dade County fans on his way out…
When LeBron James headed back home to Cleveland, he forgot to pack something Heat fans hoped he’d take with him — namely, the national hate for Dade County’s fans. Before LeBron came to Miami, no one really had a problem with Heat fans, but while he was here, Heat fans…
Kevin Olson hasn’t even taken a single snap for the Miami Hurricanes yet, but he’s already finding himself in heaps of trouble. The redshirt freshman has been suspended for one game after failing a drug test. He was also suspended during last year’s bowl game while redshirting…
Joey Grosso’s name wouldn’t be familiar to most Hurricanes fans. In fact, he had played the linebaker position at UPenn from 2010-13, and was ready to start law school at the University of Miami this fall. Using his remaining eligibility, he qualified as a walk-on for the Hurricanes and had…

When it comes to Christmas, I just want to open some presents, eat some ham, and pass out early after drinking copious amounts of eggnog. I do not want to see people I love fighting — and that includes basketball players who used to play together for my favorite team…
