What does the arrival LeBron James mean to Dolphins?

Phins will go a long way this year. Then the heat will follow. ESPN cringes that they will have to cover FL teams. Some fun years ahead.

Who gives a FLYING RAT F^CK about basketball? It’s a stupid sport.

Miami has an enormous amount of Celebrities living within its Metro area. From Actors, Models, Musical Artists, Athletes, and more…. it has one of the highest celebrity factors in the world.

As for LeBron, who cares. Would Jordan have held an hour long press conference to announce where he was going to eat lunch? Hell No. Just more proof the NBA is becoming the WWE of the sports world. Its ridiculous.

Let them have the glitz. Stephen Ross must be loving this because that’s the type of game day environment he’s trying to create. I’m sure he’ll be trying to associate us with them as much as possible. I believe LeBron is a big football fan as well so I’d expect to see him showing up at the games which is exactly what Ross is likely hoping for.

The Heat can put themselves on the Fins level with some championships but the moment the Fins start winning it’s a football town. Plenty of room for both teams though.

Hopefully the Marlins spending habits with change in their own stadium. Are the Panthers any good?

But that doesnt mean the Heat can’t share the same glory. Im just glad that during the offseason I have the Heat to follow.

thats cool about Lebron but football is a whole other story,as everyone keeps saying it will always stay the Dolphins,…ALWAYS

Just ask the Marlins, Panthers, Heat, and yes, the Dolphins. They back a winner, period. This move does, however, make Miami that much more appealing to other athletes. Who wouldn’t want to come down here and hang out with Lebron and Dwayne? Having the one of the beast teams in the NBA raises the bar for the fins, nobody wants to be second best.

Could you imagine ANY football free agent doing something like this? It would not only be absurd, the player would get destroyed in the media.

I personally thought the ESPN special was ridiculous. They had to drag it out and they kept repeating themselves unbearably. Then LeBron put the icing on the cake by saying he was going to Miami. That’s good for Heat fans and the media, but what he actually did was admit, in front of millions of viewers, that he wasn’t good enough to lead a team to a championship by himself. LeBron wasn’t the best player in the league, but now its questionable whether or not he’s even the best player on his TEAM! Anyone who dared to argue that LeBron was or could be better than MJ can now put that argument to rest. LeBron hurt his image by shamelessly trying to promote it in this way and tainted his legacy by choosing to play second fiddle to Dwayne Wade.

He will give up and hide like always-just in a different town

… somehow Matty, you managed to get a Basketball prop in on the Phinsider… a Miami Dolphins Football Blog.

You’ll see this once: You’re highly intelligent. (gargles with Scope)

His playful manner is what makes him likable. He joked about going to play for the Heat but they should have been talking about LeBron playing TE for us, lol.

all that matters is we r on the rise!

but now the Heat are gonna be a close second, either way I’m trilled.

Great offseason for Miami Sports!

Plane and simple,They lost 400 million in revanue.
No cares, lets keep this site about or beloved dolphins.

To most casual fans of football basketball starts getting interesting when the NFL is winding down. Not much confrontation their.

It looks like the next few years in Miami are going to be great for the bigger sports, now only if the Marlins could somehow get back on track…

I just posted this exact same thing the other day but summarized it in about 2 paragraphs. I GOT RIPPED OFF BY MATTY!

matty’s further point about the walls of silence that attend this regime however is a real issue imo. does it show regard for fans, the people who love and show up for the games? why the deep paranoia? dick cheney much!
 other markets manage to keep their teams relatively transparent without having to act like a press conference is tantamount to giving out the nation’s nuclear codes.
would love to be a fly on the wall when Jason Taylor first meets Le Bron, and Le Bron asks him, ’hey, what about this treatment with the dolphins?"

The one win Dolphin season, the pathetic 16(or so)-win season from the Heat & the countless 2nd half collapses since the title, the 2002 UM season & everything after lol

This off season for my teams has been OFF THE CHARTS. Hands-down most exciting up-coming seasons for my major sport interests. BMarsh in Miami still seems like it’s unreal. The UM roster looks dynamite. And of course the re-signing of DWADE (my #1 hope over even landing BMarsh, Spiller, or any player period), and bringing in Bosh & LeBron is enough for my ravenous love of sports to hold me over until training camp.

The 305 offseason upgrades feel like one of those dreams where you’re with Scarlett Johansson and the evening finds you in an endless wave of passionate coitus & soaking in her thick curves, until you both pass out of exhaustion and you wake up alone & for a split-second you don’t know if you should feel used because she snuck out during the night or come to grips with reality & try your darnest to get back to sleep — except in this case, there are contracts to pinch you & remind you that you’re awake.

i find it so interesting how many dolphins fans (including myself) are not heat/marlins/panthers fans. myself being from chicago, and having no memory as to why im a dolphins fan, i find it funny that im not alone.

go bulls. should be a fun nba season. but i could care less in comparison, id trade all six of mj’s titles for a super bowl ring.

(oh, and as a diehard blackhawks fan, its funny that no one even knows who the panthers are here. do me a favor everyone, go to a game. youll like it i promise.)

GO DOLPHINS.

Lebron James is visiting south beach?

I predict the browns and the cavs to do horrible for 20 more years

The more the merrier over there.
