Sports, Sports, and more sports

The Heat played like it was the playoffs.  A laugher that allowed Labron to sit out the 4th quarter.  The Marlins need to start hitting or they may not make it out out the cellar.  The Dolphins draft another quarterback.

The biggest change in South Florida is where the Dolphins stand in the sports hierarchy.  They may be third in fan interest until they are able to rebuild and get back on their winning ways.  Season ticket sales may not be set the world on fire this year.

Championships or not both the Heat and the Marlins have generated some buzz and the sports dollars in South Florida are in short supply.  Sports talk radio down here isn't very excited about what the Dolphins have done for the last few years.  Stephen Ross is not Joe Robbie and as much as the locals disliked Wayne H., he still seems to be feeling his way around owning what should be a proud franchise.  If things keep going the way they have been Jacksonville and Tampa Bay will have company as bottom feeders in the NFL.

The biggest issue after my first trip to the Marlins Park this afternoon will be picking a Kentucky Derby winner.  This year will be the first in a while that there is no clear cut favorite.  There are a lot of good horses this year, but the question will be can they run a mile and a quarter and will they get a good enough trip to win.  Twenty horses is an awful lot of horses and sometimes even the best horses get beat.
