Dan Campbell Should Be Dolphins Head Coach Next Season

The Dan Campbell Miami Dolphins era is off to a smoking-hot start, one that has the Miami Dolphins as the talk of the town. After sputtering to a 1-3 start under Joe Philbin, the Dolphins looked unrecognizable in their 38-10 spanking of the Tennessee Titans this past Sunday. The performance…

Dan Campbell’s Dolphins Destroyed Tennessee in His Coaching Debut

The Miami Dolphins newest head coach started off his tenure with a 38-10 steel-toed-roundhouse-kick square in the face of the Tennessee Titans.

Miami Dolphins Fans Shouldn’t Give Up on This Season Yet

Rachael Ray’s Okay: Stop Hating on Food Network Stars

Food Network stars often get a bad rap.

I happen to disagree. Whether you find these people to be cultural…

Fire Joe Philbin and Make Dan Marino Head Coach of the Dolphins

Jarvis Landry Might Become the Dolphins’ Dwyane Wade

Last weekend, Jarvis Landry helped the Miami Dolphins snatch victory from the jaws of defeat with his electric, game-deciding fourth-quarter punt return touchdown.

Mike Huckabee Wants to Bring Back Slavery

Mike Huckabee can’t climb past 5 percent in the polls for the Republican presidential nomination.
