Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on October 26, 2023. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Heat, Miami Heat Blog, NBA, Sports.

MIAMI – Observations and other notes of interest from Wednesday night’s 103-102 victory over the Detroit Pistons at Kaseya Center: – Yes, there is no such thing as must-win in the first of 82 regular-season games. – And yet based on what now follows, a three-game trip to Boston, Minnesota (on the second night of a back-to-back) and Milwaukee, this was needed. – And necessary. – Because it will be interesting to see how the Heat handle the Boston-Minnesota back-to-back when starting a trio of 30-somethings. – As expected, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra opened with a lineup of Bam Adebayo, Kevin...

Controversial Promise program is ending in Broward schools. Here is what’s planned.

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on October 24, 2023. Posted in Education, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, News.

The Promise program, an initiative that was once heralded for keeping kids out of jail but got tarnished as a symbol of leniency in the wake of the Parkland tragedy, is ending after a decade in Broward schools. The School Board voted last week to approve the updated student Code of Conduct, which eliminates referrals to the Promise program as an action that can avoid a student getting suspended or arrested for non-violent misdemeanor offenses, such as vandalism, petty theft and marijuana possession. But while the name Promise will no longer be associated with the school district, the...

Dolphins’ run game struggled in Philadelphia, and the devil is in the details

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on October 24, 2023. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Dolphins, NFL, Sports.

MIAMI GARDENS — The Miami Dolphins had 12 carries for 45 yards against the Philadelphia Eagles. You decide which number is more objectionable. Miami’s inability and/or reluctance to run resulted in a one-dimensional, predictable offense, and the Eagles took advantage in Miami’s 31-17 loss on Sunday. “Probably the biggest opportunities we squandered happened to be in the run game,” coach Mike McDaniel said. The bad thing is Miami entered the game No. 1 in rushing at 181.8 yards per game. Philadelphia sacked quarterback Tua Tagovailoa three times (he’d only been sacked six times in the...

PHILADELPHIA — Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa almost seems like a completely different person in a second season under coach Mike McDaniel than he was his first two NFL campaigns with Brian Flores at the helm. Ahead of Sunday night’s prime-time showdown against the Philadelphia Eagles, Tagovailoa opened up this past week in an interview with NBC about the freedom he’s operating with in McDaniel’s system and how it transcends to happiness on and off the field. “I would describe the place that I’m at professionally as fun and happy,” Tagovailoa said in the interview. “Fun because...
