September 6, 2015 College Sports in Florida

Hello, I’m Tim Tebow. And you know, I hear Canada is fine this time of year. – One reason John McEnroe vs. Serena Williams wouldn’t be as big a deal as Bobby Riggs vs. Billie Jean King. These days, tennis isn’t as big. – Alex Rodriguez is hitting .157 since August 1. Think he needs […]

College roundup: McElwain, QBs sizzle

September 6, 2015 College Sports in Florida

Sunday, 2:54 a.m. There will be, of course, darker days than this.

Why does Goodell want to be the judge, anyway?

September 4, 2015 NFL

Friday, 6 a.m. Why does Roger Goodell need the grief? He makes plenty of money. He gets good seats to all the nice games. He attends the fanciest parties. His name is on all the footballs. The owners love him because he turns their nickels into quarters. So why isn’t it enough? Why on earth […]

September 4, 2015 general

Friday, 12:10 a.m. The final argument for Khaseem Greene was a good one. So, too, was the last appeal of Kyle Brindza. Rannell Hall and Adam Humphries were good at closing. So was Keith Tandy.

Days of the Dolphins: Life on the Miami beat

September 3, 2015 general

Thursday, 6 a.m. The chair was black and beaten, a survivor of the wars. It stood in a corner of Don Shula’s old office at Nova University, weathered by time and worn by abuse. It was lined and faded, as if it had been stitched together from old leather helmets. There was nothing stately about […]

Where, exactly, will Bucs’ defense be better?

September 2, 2015 general

Wednesday, 6:30 a.m. Try not to think about the new quarterback for a minute. Try not to think about the offensive coordinator. Or the refocused running back. Or the rebuilt offensive line.

Bucs’ Koetter recognizes bad, must bring better

September 1, 2015 general

Tuesday, 6 a.m. He was brought in to make the right call. He was brought in to make the uncoordinated look coordinated, to make the rookie quarterback look experienced, to make the broken offensive line look whole again.
