What are your thoughts, Dolphins fans?
The Heat are easily the most popular team now on South Beach.

Are you basing this on what study now?

So much for your posts in the Heat offseason thread. :lol:
It's a close call. South Florida loves them some Dolphins, but the Heat are now a juggernaut. Let's wait and see what happens after both teams start their seasons.Frumundah Finnatic and dolfan7171 like this. -

No, never. I'm always a Dolphins fan over anything

I don't think so. If they win a championship or two, I think they'd make a run at it but I think in the end, it's still all about football.

The correct phrase is "sold out."
Interesting fact: Jay-Z, he of the future Brooklyn Nets, paid $900k for two courtside Heat season tickets. -
The Marlins will still draw huge TV ratings every night but will be held back by Bozo the Art Clown. Nice try at trolling, though.gafinfan, DolfanJake, Frumundah Finnatic and 4 others like this.

Not for me, Dolphins are my passion bro, and beating up on the Jets 2x a year is A) a given, and B) better than than championship the Heat win.....
nevermind Miami winning the SB, thats a whole other level....dolfan7171, steveincolorado and jupiterfin like this. -
The Marlins that consistently beat the Mets, or the Marlins that won their second World Series by beating the Yanks?
Just trying to clarify :pointlol:DolfanJake and Frumundah Finnatic like this. -
Yanks fans dont recognize or believe that happen hahahah, ditto with the Diamondbacks...:lol:DolfanJake and jupiterfin like this.

That's it?? Pretty weak man. I also think you starting this thread is borderline trolling.
There are very few cities where the basketball team is more popular than the football team, I can think of maybe two and one of them - Detroit - is because the team has been god awful for so long.DolfanJake likes this. -
Sorry if you thought I was trolling by starting this thread. I wasn't intending to at all.
I just wanted to see your thoughts on the current Miami sports scene. It has changed a LOT in the past year.frozenfin, dolfan7171, LandShark13 and 2 others like this. -
New York fans are in for a long season of sports. Jets aren't gonna live up to the hype, Knicks won't be able to keep up, Giants will underachieve, Mets are mediocre at best. Looks like the Yanks are the only bright spot.
Delusion is easy. -
My brother-in-law is from right outside of Detroit, he would disagree with you...they LOVE football in Detroit, go look at the attendance....they bang that joint out like crazy....45K+ every game to watch that???...that my friend are what I call fans...Ronnie Bass likes this.

Good, that just strengthens my argument because the only city I can think of where an NBA team is more popular than the NFL is Boston and I am not sure about that either.
The other possibility is in Phoenix but that might not be the case anymore since the rise of late of the Cardinals.
To think the Heat could ever overtake the Dolphins is just plain silly, I just don't see it happening. -
Maybe someday New York will get a NFL team:shifty:DolfanJake, late again and Ronnie Bass like this.

Not to me. I couldn't care less about what the Heat do.

We got two of them in New Jersey! Maybe if we are nice we will share them with New York. :lol:steveincolorado likes this.

the heat will fall on their faces
they have three stars which equals crowded and no one else
will wade be the leader so lebron plays second fiddle. that won't happen -
No way. Living in Boston, the locals are interested in the celtics only when the patsies aren't playing. Same thing will happen on miami
-
Yeah, they'll probably fall face-first right into all that red/black confetti next June.jetssuck, Pandarilla and LandShark13 like this.

The Heat will get a short term bounce, but Miami is a football town.

IMO the Dolphins will always be the top team just b/c football is king. The Marlins have been more successful than the Dolphins over the last decade and they are still a blip compared to the Dolphins. At best, the Heat becomes equally relevant during their season as long as they are winning. Otherwise they will always be second. That doesn't mean irrelevant or anything. It just means second.

The Dolphins will always own Miami. The Heat have stepped up and basketball will be more interesting now there but it's still a football town by a long shot.

That is a ridiculous and uninformed comment. The roster as it stands now:
PG: James/ Chalmers
SG: Wade
SF: Miller/ Butler
PF: Bosh/ Varnado
C: Anthony/ Pittman
They should be able to retain Haslem and Wright under the Bird rights. And players like Raja Bell, Shaq, Varejo, Brad Miller and a host of others are reportedly willing to play for the minimum just to be on the team.jetssuck, Pandarilla, MikeHoncho and 1 other person like this. -
No, it hasn't though. Football and the Dolphins are still king, and always will be. Basketball will now be more popular there, but it won't come close to football.
-
the heat is now officially overrated. :up:
-
-
yeah, that hasn't been true since Larry Bird played in the garden. honestly, I think teh Boston fans love seeing the Celtics win, but they aren't attached to the team since Ray Allen and Garnett spent their whole careers elsewhere.
-
Football town, but the 2 can coexist.
Actually, make that the 3 can coexist. Marlins are due for another World Series in the near future!DolfanJake likes this. -

Listen to Sid on WFAN were we?
No, I don't think so, football is one day a week, basketball is a few days a week. Sundays will still be football.
As they say, win and they shall come.
Personally, I think the Heat will be a bust, I don't see it working.
