Though not in South Florida, I will forever despise the University of Florida for denying the Villanova Wildcats thier rightful NCAA championship last year.

Do you remember the score in last years Peach Bowl? I think Miami played in that one. Getting a new coach this year?
Posted by Eric Bouler ( Gardner Realtors, Licensed in La.) over 5 years ago
I'm horrible remembering scores but can tell you we are pretty nervous about the new coach thing - will see what happens.  Miami Historically has good talent, let's hope they put the right guy up there.

The score was LSU 40- Miami 3. Miami got one first down in the second half. I wouldn't want to remember either, lol. It wasn't much of a game except if you were an LSU fan. You guys may want to get Spurrier?

That's why I told you guys to keep trashing U of F - and might as well trash FSU while you're at it.

Do a post on Clooney or Pitt, and you'll no doubt have the opposite results!
Posted by Rich Jacobson Your Kitsap County WA Real Estate Broker (Keller Williams West Sound Realty) over 5 years ago
You know what's funny Rich?  I was reading Clooney and Pitt and thinking (Rich wants me to figure out what team these guys are in??) - and then I started laughing!!  Maybe I'll do a post on local celebrities like Shak and Gloria Estefan - thanks for the idea.

That's awesome Angela - we've had the opportunity of sitting at the front for a couple of Dolphin, Hurricanes and Marlins games and they have been the best.  My kids got to go to the field during a Canes game last month and hang out with players and cheerleaders - here's  a photo (I had posted it on another blog before).canes

Hey, my sister just graduated fom UM.  She went to all the home games during her studies there.

As for ProPlayer Stadium, isn't its new name Dolphins Stadium?  Or did that name not go into effect?

Posted by Mortgage Financial Group, Inc over 5 years ago

Jason - Locals know it as "Dolphin Stadium", but as far as I know it is Prop-player.  Your sister has an excellent taste in schools, what was her major?

I just checked my own link to the stadium and it reads "Dolphin Stadium" although you can go in through www.Propplayerstadium.com or www.dolphinstadium.com

Thanks for pointing it out - stadiums here change names like I change my baby's diaper.

She majored in nursing... she was going to go to Jackson, but decided take a hospital in Brevard that was closer to her home.

As for the stadium changing names... I still know it as Joe Robbie (now that is going back some years.)

Jason - Congrats to you and your sister and call us when you're in Miami

The Florida Marlins have thousands of fans all over the world. Here, I may consider myself as one of the big fans of this wonderful team. Whenever I’ve time I try to attend their games, though sometimes it becomes a little difficult to get Marlins tickets and this is due to these great fans that the team has. Florida Marlins tickets are a little pricy or hard to be found but the team, as a professional and essential team of MLB, worth any price to watch their games. And when we love a team we try as much as possible these financial obstacles.

Ashley - I love the Marlins but I don't know what you are talking about because tickets are not hard to find - the stadium is half empty.  (btw, all those links would be considered spam, but I will leave them because I think they are helpful)
