Folks, I feel incredibly apprehensive about coming to all of you for help, but our dog Marley suffered a catastrophic knee injury that needs very specialized surgery. This unplanned major expense is too much of a burden right now. Please help if you can.
Miami residents : This flooding is crazy, I can’t believe our corrupt politicians won’t do anything about it.
Also Miami Residents : I’m just going to keep voting for the same people
This may be the best piece of the last decade, and that is not hyperbole.
@LeBatardShow
not only hits it out of the park, but this one may never land he hit it so right. Please watch or read.
Jaden Davis says on his first day here (at Miami). Kam called a players only meeting and every single player was there 15 minutes early. Said he’s never seen anything like that, anywhere. That’s when he knew these players meant business.
I can’t stress how big of a hire this is for Miami and Mario Cristobal. To pull a coordinator from Michigan ..is a major move, X’ and O’s aside, this shows you the different level that Miami has risen to over the last few months .
To all the UM players. I know you are hurt right now. But don’t let emotions cause you to make a decision out of haste. You will LOVE your new head coach. And you will reach the heights both as an individual and a team that you thought were possible. Be patient !
The State of Florida should be ashamed about the lack of compensation teachers in this state get. And
@browardschools
offering a 1% raise is a joke.
@NikkiFried
..please stand up for teachers, because
@RonDeSantisFL
isn’t
I can confirm what others have reported. The University of Miami and former player Alzonzo Highsmith are in discussions about Highsmith coming back to his alma mater and joining the athletic department.
I don't cover recruiting...and I have no idea what this means...but someone who has been dialed in on recruiting for 40 years just said Miami gets a big recruit next week. 🤷♂️
Video of Nicolle Wallace calling folks at Fox News “chickenshit” live on MSNBC, after they attacked a decorated war hero who testified that Trump pressured Ukraine, and there was a quid pro quo: Awesome. 🇺🇸
Redding said ..if you want to win you got to build a team.says team will
@be
getting together tonight on Greentree to WORK. Player led. Will also be at each other’s houses after studying film etc .
Ok guys — here’s My Pillow Guy on the day of the riots.
Completely bonkers. And Trump met with him again today. They participated in a failed coup.
Once again, how is this guy not in custody? Asking for a country...
I think
@LeBatardShow
having the freedom to explore serious, non-sports, topics like Afghanistan etc, is such a benefit of not being boxed in by a corporate hierarchy. I know there is a percentage of the audience that may not like it, but humans aren’t one dimensional.
Hey Ma, I did it! So this happened!
It was a long two years, but it is official (although I walk in May!). I got my MBA with a concentration in Media Management.
Thanks

Hank Goldberg, who worked at ESPN as an NFL reporter and handicapping expert for 17 years, died Monday on his 82nd birthday, his family confirmed. Goldberg had been in treatment for chronic kidney disease in recent years.
I don’t want to have recency bias, but this is one of the best moments in my sports fandom life. After spending years taking the Metrorail to the games at the Miami arena to now. I never thought I’d see this . Wow. I love my school!

Getting it out now in case he gets fired today: I think Manny Diaz should remain Miami's head coach. 7-5 with a third-string QB much of the season. Close games go both ways but the 'Canes lost some toughies. Invest in the program and give him more time.
@jessica_smetana
. Thank you for engaging in a higher level of conversation on weight. As a bigger person I get sad every time the show makes fun of
@LeBatardShow
, even though it can be self deprecating…we know this can be a coping mechanism. (More)
I’ll be honest..I thought Coach L was done. Thought this program was falling behind. I was wrong. Jim is coaching the hell out of this squad and it shows.
Just finished listening to the
@LeBatardShow
and I've never wanted to go to see
@gregcote
's garage more. I'd be happy to sit in the garage and sort cards and look for prices for a small percentage. Lol .
@ChrisCoteDLPA
I’m not jumping to conclusions on
@CutlerRidgeLAZ

So Mario just won the Rose Bowl, will finish one the top 5, had a great recruiting class, has all the resources you could ever want and you think he's coming to a 6-7 program at a University that has no idea what it wants to be? Yeah. Ok.
You need to listen to
@RexChapman
on the
@LeBatardShow
. There’s no better content than people willing to spill their soul out. What a great listen..and a great dude.
OK. It’s official. The
#Canes
celebration of all celebrations is set. We’re working on the venue . It’s going to be in January for a very good reason. Trust me. You won’t want to miss it. Props to
@ibToast
and
@OrangeBowlBoys
for taking the lead. Hoping former players come out!!
Just got off the phone…sentiment is that if this season continues this way…Blake won’t survive. Not to mention Manny. Question is…if that’s the case, what decisions do you make after that?
Amazing how many Canes fans are absolutely in their feels about a parody song played by the
@LeBatardShow
. You guys wouldn’t have made it 3 seconds when
@NeilRogersRadio
was around . Holy crap.
July 1, 2021: The day college players could get money for name, image and likeness.
January 16, 2022: The day name, image and likeness became the free market.
A group of Miami boosters, led by
@JohnHRuiz
, have secured $10M to pay players under the guise of NIL.
The outpouring of support by Hurricanes fans from across the globe for Kam Kinchens has been truly amazing. Makes me tremendously proud to call The U my alma mater.
Idaho:
City District Health officials had to shut down a zoom meeting on COVID because anti-mask protestors were banging on the doors of Commissioner Diana Lachiondo’s house while her 12 year old was home.
Madness...
Statement from UM on QB Emory William:
Miami quarterback Emory Williams suffered a left arm injury during the fourth quarter of Saturday’s game and was transported to Tallahassee Memorial Hospital. He flew back with the team Saturday night.
Here's an idea for the
@JohnHRuiz
and
@marcuslemonis
and the rest of the Canes Donors...Our
@CanesBaseball
team is at a disadvantage because they don't get full scholarships and parents have to pay..and it's cheaper to go to UF. They all need NIL deals to make it fair. Let's GO!
Just going to remind everyone..that Mario is following the Butch plan of tight ship. Also Butch was able to find leaks by putting out false info. Keep that in mind .
Not reporting anything. But..I wouldn’t be surprised if Radokovich is a done deal by tonight and press conference tomorrow. It’s more of a hunch than a report. I’m not willing to bet my life on it. Maybe an arm or leg.
I love the folks on the time line calling this a media show. This isn’t a media show. It is your government doing its job. This isn’t fiction. This isn’t a “show.” This is what happened.
Got to give it up to Mario and Josh and the entire offensive coaching staff. This pass heavy game plan is not in their comfort zone, but it’s what this team does well.
