Messi scores in his return, helps Inter Miami to a 2-2 tie against Colorado

By TIM REYNOLDS (AP Sports Writer) FORT LAUDERDALE — Lionel Messi returned and helped salvage a tie for Inter Miami. Messi scored shortly after checking in to begin the second half and helped set up Leo Afonso’s go-ahead score two minutes later. But Cole Bassett scored in the 88th minute for the Colorado Rapids and the game ended in a 2-2 tie on Saturday night. It was Messi’s first appearance for Inter Miami since a hamstring issue led to him getting subbed out early in the second half of a CONCACAF Champions Cup match against Nashville on March 13. He had missed four Inter Miami games since,...

UF’s Billy Napier confident Gators’ embattled D on right track

GAINESVILLE — Florida’s defense dominated the 2023 spring game, led a September upset of Tennessee and then fell off a cliff, dragging down the Gators with it. Amid the offseason talk of Billy Napier maintaining play-calling duties, quarterback Graham Mertz’s improvement in attacking down the field and tailback Trevor Etienne’s transfer to Georgia, the Gators set out to fix the team’s biggest problem during a 5-7 finish. Napier is confident the Gators’ retooled defense has the talent, experience and staff to chart a new course after two seasons of historically poor play during consecutive losing...

Florida Panthers rally in third period, but lose in overtime to Boston Bruins

By KEN POWTAK (Associated Press) BOSTON (AP) — Jesper Boqvist scored 2:05 into overtime, Linus Ullmark stopped 28 shots and the Boston Bruins beat the Florida Panthers 3-2 on Saturday in a matchup of the top two teams in the Atlantic Division. First-place Boston moved five points ahead of second-place Florida. Both teams have four games left in the regular season — with the Panthers’ all at home. “It’s another big game, another playoff-type game against a team that’s going to be there and those games aren’t hard to get up for,” said Boston center Charlie Coyle, who had a power-play goal in the...

Inter Miami say Lionel Messi will play Saturday against Colorado in MLS match

By TIM REYNOLDS (AP Sports Writer) FORT LAUDERDALE — Lionel Messi is coming back to Inter Miami’s lineup, with the team saying his absence for a hamstring injury will end Saturday at home in an MLS match against the Colorado Rapids. “He’s back,” the team wrote in a social media post Friday. Messi has missed Inter Miami’s last four games, including one Wednesday when the club wasted a 1-0 lead and lost 2-1 to Mexico’s Monterrey in the first leg of a CONCACAF Champions Cup quarterfinal. Tensions boiled over after that physical game, with members of both teams — Messi included — involved in a postgame...

2024 Tortuga Music Festival at Fort Lauderdale Beach Park | PHOTOS

The 2024 edition of Tortuga Music Festival took off at Fort Lauderdale Beach Park on Friday in an atmosphere that came close to perfect, with blue skies, mid-70s temps and sunny dispositions all around. Priscilla Block was sassy, Boyz II Men crooned, Warren Zeiders rocked and the evening crowd was surprisingly manageable. Another surprise: Ashley McBryde’s secret set on a small stage outside a Jersey Mike’s booth. She did a half-dozen songs and signed a few autographs. The 100 or so fans that caught her were giddy. Something to look out for as Tortuga continues on Saturday and Sunday.

Florida’s stricter ban on abortions could put more pressure on clinics elsewhere

The drive to Bristol, Virginia, from Jacksonville, Florida, takes more than eight hours. It’s over 10 from Orlando and closer to 14 from Miami. Despite that distance, Bristol Women’s Health Center is preparing for an influx of women from Florida seeking abortions when a stricter ban kicks in next month. For many people who otherwise would have obtained abortions in Florida, the clinic in southwest Virginia will become the closest practical option — as it already is for a swath of the South after a Florida policy change expected to resonate far beyond the state’s borders. “The majority of the...
