Heat fail to seize upon shorthanded Cavaliers in 130-116 foul-filled, turnover-plagued loss

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on November 13, 2025. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Heat, NBA, Sports.

MIAMI – Commit enough turnovers and fouls and sometimes it doesn’t matter who you are playing. It is a hard reality the Miami Heat learned in Wednesday night’s 130-116 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers at Kaseya Center. As in a Cavaliers team that gave the night off to Donovan Mitchell and Evan Mobley and had lost Darius Garland to injury two nights before. No matter, on a night the Heat too often fouled instead of defended, too often turned the ball over instead of turned up the offense. And, with that, much of the edge taken Monday night’s dramatic overtime victory over the Cavaliers, as...

If the College Football Playoffs started this week, Miami would qualify for the College Football Playoff — just barely. Because Miami is currently the top-ranked team in the ACC, the Hurricanes currently project as the No. 11 seed in the playoffs. The College Football Playoff selection committee moved Miami up to No. 15 in this week’s rankings after putting Miami at No. 18 last week. In the projected bracket, the Hurricanes would travel to play No. 6 Texas Tech in the first round of the playoff. “We had some teams lose, and again, the conversation with Miami has been about their...

UCF has no answers for hot-shooting Vanderbilt, takes first loss of season

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on November 9, 2025. Posted in College Sports, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Sports, UCF Knights.

There wasn’t much for UCF basketball fans to cheer about on Saturday as the Knights ran into perhaps one of the best shooting teams in the country, as Vanderbilt cruised to a 105-93 win at Addition Financial Arena. The Commodores shot 61% from the floor in the first half, connecting on 10 3-pointers as they built a 19-point lead. They extended that lead to as many as 27 points in the second half before UCF cut it to 9, but the Knights were never able to get any closer. UCF (1-1) opened the season with an 82-78 win over Hofstra on Monday night, but had no answers for Vanderbilt’s offense....

Dave Hyde: Winning wasn’t a Dolphins priority this week — but it is for McDaniel starting now

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on November 8, 2025. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Dolphins, NFL, Sports.

Six years ago, when the Miami Dolphins shouldn’t have tanked, they foolishly and unsuccessfully decided to tank before the season even began. Today, when they are 2-7 and might as well tank, they foolishly and incomprehensively receive an edict on how they need to win to save jobs from team owner Steve Ross. Or, if not exactly win, they need compete. Challenge. Try really, really hard? It’s not really clear. Let’s fold that demand into recent events: The Dolphins fired general manager Chris Grier (finally), traded their best pass rusher in Jaelan Phillips (smartly) and tried to trade most...
