People are going to be cranky as hell up here in Boston tomorrow. No perfect season; no free Dunkin' Donuts coffee (http://www.patswinyouwin.com/)

He's not on the vet minimum, he's possibly in the last year of his deal(they made the last year a team option.)

Portland and Columbus? Talking about an unappealing MLS cup final

I tried DD coffee, tastes like utter dog chit. You guys need to try our famous Tim Hortons coffee. (that's if youre into coffee)

Love it!!!

Someone prove with ties to Miami. I was a big Butch fan but Richt is the safe, easy to get excited guy.

He's on 12M a year and I don't see Houston buying him out. I would give him a chance for veteran minimum. Larry Sanders too, if he shows up in something like fit condition.

The real problem with Lawson for us is that he's another player that needs the ball in his hands and we need 3&D shooters and a new reserve big man.

Lawson could be a big trade chip for Houston, he's making $12.40m this year and $13.21(completely non-guaranteed) for next season. Apparently, they've told him that he's not in trade talks but I don't believe that.

I thought Denver bought him out and he signed for vet min at Houston. 12 mill is too much. Woops.

I was really skeptical of this revamp of The Wiz but I'm really impressed!! Reminded me of how much I love this movie

I am happy with this hire..

I go to school at UGA and it's strange coming to the Heat board and seeing convo about Richt. He helped build a perennial contender, but the AD at UGA wants that crystal ball and didn't think it was coming unless a change was made. Lots of conflict over his departure.

So... the MLS stadium has been approved. Will be interesting, soccer in general in the US is growing but just isn't as big as the other sports. Miami is now a basketball city, unless Dolphins suddenly turn it around... they are somewhat getting there though, but still need lots more time.

Either way, interested to see the support the MLS team will get. I don't know the colors, or name though, doubt they keep the same scheme. I looked at the owners and its not just Beckham, some powerful dudes with money are behind this, and they will need it for the marketing, its the only way this will get kick started.

I'm sure they are also banking on the Latino population as well, to really support the MLS team.

I'll support and look at how Beckham plays this, it's actually pretty cool he is running this with his whole "Miami Beckham United" group.

Game over. Worst ref job I've seen in a while. I'd be surprised if the Pats can win another game the way their injuries are mounting. They've lost 20 starters this season. Unreal.

Being a Dolphins' fan, I would be more than willing to express my emotions witnessing the Patriots lose.

But I fear I may end up on a quick vacation from realgm...

Bring an alcoholic to South FL? That doesn't sound like the best of ideas.

I'm ecstatic. We had season tickets for Fusion games. Standing behind the goal when we played DC United was a pretty damn amazing noise level.

Lol:)

You should voice your opinions on the struggling Dolphins forum;)

Seriously though, I understand that I'm on the outside looking in on this forum concerning my football fandom and you guys can trash the Pats as you see fit without fear of retaliation from me.
