TALLAHASSEE — North Carolina had won seven straight Atlantic Coast Conference games by double digits. On Saturday, the Tar Heels showed they could win a game that was tight in the final minutes. RJ Davis scored 24 points and freshman Elliot Cadeau scored a season-high 16 points to help No. 3 North Carolina rally from an eight-point deficit early in the second half and beat Florida State 75-68. Davis shot 9 of 18 from the floor, although he made just 2 of 8 3-point shots, and surpassed the 20-point mark for the 12th time this season. Cadeau shot 8 of 9 from the free-throw line and had six assists...

Baffert grabs his third Pegasus, with National Treasure winning at Gulfstream Park

HALLANDALE BEACH — Bob Baffert was the first trainer to win the Pegasus World Cup Invitational twice. And now, he’s the first to win it three times. National Treasure, the Preakness winner last year, dug deep in the stretch to win the 1 1/8-mile Pegasus World Cup at Gulfstream Park on Saturday. The Grade 1, $3 million race is the richest of the year at Gulfstream, and National Treasure — the 5-2 favorite — had to hold off hard-charging Senor Buscador in the stretch run to get the victory. Crupi, a 30-1 shot, was third. National Treasure was ridden by Flavien Prat and returned $7.20, $5.40 and...

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 27, 2024. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Uncategorized.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Arrests for illegal border crossings from Mexico reached an all-time high in December since monthly numbers have been released, authorities said Friday, exposing a growing vulnerability for President Joe Biden in his campaign for a second term. The Border Patrol tallied 249,785 arrests on the Mexican border in December, up 31% from 191,112 in November and up 13% from 222,018 in December 2022, the previous all-time high. Arrests fell more than half during the first two weeks of January, “consistent with historical trends and enhanced enforcement,” U.S. Customs and Border Protection...

President Joe Biden will visit South Florida on Tuesday for two campaign receptions, the White House Press Office said in a news release Friday night. Biden will travel to Palm Beach, home of Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, and Miami. The release did not provide further information about the events or scheduling but said additional details would be forthcoming. Even if Biden doesn’t have any public events, the presidential motorcade could cause headaches for South Florida drivers. Politico reported last week that Biden is scheduled to attend a fundraiser at the home of Chris Korge, who is...

Winderman’s view: Celtics show Heat the mountain to climb in East

MIAMI – Observations and other notes of interest from Thursday night’s 143-110 loss to the Boston Celtics: – The gap between the Heat and the top of the East? – It was never more apparent than Thursday night. – As if the Celtics are in another league. – Yes, the playoffs are a different animal. – But these Celtics are not last season’s Celtics. – Kristaps Porzingis and Jrue Holiday have changed that calculus. – And Derrick White is even better this time around. – While the Heat certainly looked better than recent games, they didn’t look Celtics good. – Sure, coaching yet could matter in a playoff...

Heat no match for Celtics in season-worst 143-110 loss as skid reaches five

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 26, 2024. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Heat, NBA, Sports.

MIAMI – This is why you don’t lose to the Toronto Raptors, Atlanta Hawks, Orlando Magic and injury-decimated Memphis Grizzlies. Because eventually winter will be coming, with the Miami Heat hit with the cold reality of the East-dominating Boston Celtics on Thursday night at Kaseya Center. Against a rival as loaded as it has been in years, the Heat fell 143-110 as their losing streak reached five, the team’s longest skid in three years. While the offense came around after two weeks of slumber, the defense seemingly never stood a chance against an opponent bolstered by the offseason additions...

Republican National Committee plans to soon consider declaring Trump the ‘presumptive 2024 nominee’

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 26, 2024. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, National Politics, Network, News, Politics.

By MEG KINNARD and THOMAS BEAUMONT (Associated Press) COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — The Republican National Committee is expected to consider a resolution next week to declare Donald Trump the party’s “presumptive 2024 nominee,” even though only two states have voted and the former president has nowhere near the requisite number of delegates to clinch the mantle. If approved, the measure would further solidify Trump’s control of the party and its operation at a time when former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley is still competing against Trump for the GOP nomination. The measure, according to a...

Winderman’s view: Worst loss of the season? Against the remnants of the Grizzlies, yet

MIAMI – Observations and other notes of interest from Wednesday night’s 105-96 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies: – The Terry Rozier acquisition was an interesting move. – But also an ancillary move. – It still does not address getting Jimmy Butler, Tyler Herro and Bam Adebayo on the same page. – Unless those three play effectively and efficiently, this doesn’t go anywhere. – So say all you want about the Heat having four 20-point scorers. – It still doesn’t mean they can score. – Because they can’t. – This time it was 42 points at halftime. – Forty. Two. – 4. 2. – Even more than Rozier, what this...

Terry Rozier’s debut just another lost night for Heat as skid hits four in 105-96 failure vs. Grizzlies

Written by Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Syndicated User on January 25, 2024. Posted in Fort Lauderdale Mortgage, Fort Lauderdale Mortgage Rates, Latest Headlines, Miami Heat, NBA, Sports.

MIAMI – The Miami Heat did not look Wednesday night like a team that needed a trade to find its footing in the Eastern Conference playoff race. It looked like a team that needed three or four. Even with Terry Rozier making his debut after being acquired Tuesday from the Charlotte Hornets for Kyle Lowry and a first-round pick, the Heat continued to have the look of a team stuck in midseason doldrums. Against an injury ravaged Memphis Grizzlies roster that arguably had just one NBA-level starter available, the Heat fell 105-96 at Kaseya Center to extend their losing streak to four. The Heat got...
