The infamous “turd quarter” struck once again for the Miami Heat on Friday evening. Despite going into halftime with a dominant 21-point lead, Miami saw that early game success evaporate as soon as the third quarter began versus the Boston Celtics. Miami looked encouragingly refreshed to start the game, spearheaded by the Norman Powell, Andrew […]

After a rough first half in which the Celtics were 1 for 20 from three, Boston rode a strong third quarter to beat the rival Miami Heat, 98-96. It was one of the biggest comebacks of the season for the Celtics, who trailed by 21 at halftime. It was a great game for the newest […]

The Green Bay Packers have had a bit of an odd season from a coaching standpoint. Obviously, defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley left to be the head coach of the Miami Dolphins, but he also brought a bunch of people with him to Miami that the Packers could have blocked from taking, what, in the eyes […]
The Miami Dolphins have 34 impending free agents to deal with between now and March, but one CB is predicted to leave South Florida.

The Tampa Bay Rays have acquired Cuban outfielder Victor Mesa Jr. from the Miami Marlins, adding a left handed fourth outfielder to the Spring Training mix.

Not only do Miami Dolphins fans have to watch the Patriots play in the Super Bowl, but one outlet thinks New England could add a familiar face this offseason.
The Super Bowl will be played on Sunday, and while the Dolphins will not be competing in the big game — spoiler alert — that doesn’t keep South Florida personalities from doing the rounds in the media. One such personality is Dolphins Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Marino. On Friday, Marino joined Mad Dog Sports […]
The Miami Dolphins' tight end room now has a player under contract for the 2026 season, leading to speculation about two impending free agents' status.
One of the first decisions the Tennessee Titans are going to have to make about their current roster is whether or not to cut Calvin Ridley. He has a cap number of just over $26 million for 2026. It is currently the biggest number on their roster. Cutting him would save them around $13 million. […]
After a failed NBA trade deadline that had the Miami Heat as the only team in the entire Eastern Conference to make zero moves, it’s back to reality. No Giannis, no Ja Morant— just this same core that sports a mediocre 27-25 record and in the play-in picture for the fourth straight season. There are […]

The Miami Dolphins will need to decide the future of Tua Tagovailoa, but one NFL insider is more interested in what Quinn Ewers can do.
Paul Maurice started his Olympic break early. The Florida Panthers head coach was tossed out of Thursday night's game against the Tampa Bay Lightning, in what was a wild, fight-filled affair. The Battle of Florida lived up to its name, and much more, as this game was one for the ages. In the third period, the Lightning were walking away with it 4-0, and that's when things took a turn. Fights broke out at center ice, including a rematch between Panthers' Matthew Tkachuk, and Lightning's Brandon...
Not everyone believes the Miami Dolphins are left without options with Tua Tagovailoa, and it could make the offseason very interesting.
The Miami Hurricanes defensive line unit won the SOTU Awards for the Best Unit in 2025. The defensive line is coached by Jason Taylor and Damione Lewis. As I’m sure you know, Jason Taylor is a former Miami Dolphin and NFL Hall of Fame defensive end while Lewis played for the Hurricanes as well as […]
The Florida Panthers got absolutely thrashed 6-1 by the Tampa Bay Lightning at Benchmark International Arena in the final night of action before the NHL shuts down for three weeks for the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina, Italy.
Tampa Bay, clad in its Stadium Series kit, scored twice in each period with the goals going to Brandon Hagel, Zemgus Girgensons, Jake Guentzel, Erik Cernak, Pontus Holmberg and Oliver Bjorkstrand.
Guentzel’s goal came on the power play; Cernak’s marker w...
The Miami Dolphins just got a huge endorsement from one of the best NFL insiders regarding the new power structure in place.
It sort of feels like deja vu with the Miami Dolphins quarterback situation. Back in 2019, the Dolphins traded away Ryan Tannehill to the Tennessee Titans as Miami began to enter a transition period. The Dolphins enter this offseason with plenty of questions surrounding Tua Tagovailoa. The quarterback is owed quite a bit of money, […]
To their credit, the Tampa Bay Lightning and Florida Panthers played an actual hockey game for the first 44 minutes of their final meeting during the regular season. Up 4-0 in the third period, the two teams got into their usual shenanigans that resulted in 14 penalties being dished out, 6 misconducts, 2 game misconducts, and Paul Maurice getting ejected. Overall, the two teams combined for 147 penalty minutes on the night. Oh yeah, and the Lightning won 6-1 behind Andrei Vasilevskiy’s 33 save...
And so it begins. While the Lakers made a small move for Luke Kennard on Thursday ahead of the trade deadline, their biggest win came when the Bucks opted not to deal Giannis Antetokounmpo. By kicking the can down the road on his kinda sorta trade demand, it brings the Lakers into the fold this […]

It's not often you make a decision that many believe is a mistake, only to get a second chance to at it. That's what Miami Dolphins HC Jeff Hafley was given.
