Wow Miami, Just Wow

It hasn't been a good year for Miami in sports. The Dolphins showed just how bad a football team could possibly be, with just one win in the whole season. The Panthers are 24th in the NHL. And the Marlins just won't keep their proven players.

The Heat used to be the bright spot. It was only a couple of years ago, that Shaquille O'Neal was brought in from L.A. on a 18-wheeler, promising a NBA title.

Well, he did. But since then he has sat. A lot. While the Big Diesel had his pit stops, the Heat have just stunk. 9-37 is their record right now, bad enough for last place. Yes, worse than the Knicks.

So why is everyone starting to believe again? Shaq is gone. Although, it's not really that he is gone, but Shawn Marion is in. How they dealt a over-his-prime superstar to a team that had 3 potential all-stars, I do not know. All I know is that the Heat, thanks to a new sidekick for Dwayne Wade, are back in it. Because in the East, no one is ever really out of it.
