For The Love Of The Game
Play of the Week
We Fly High

Our Play of the Week segment might have to be separate from our Dunk of the Week segment unless everyone is content to just watch Heat highlights every week...I know I'm down for that.
I'd also like to point out that if I could post five of the plays from this brutal beating of the Suns, I would. They are all equally awe-inspiring.
Remember when people said the Heat have trouble with elite point guards? I'd like to modify that to elite AND incredibly athletic point guards right now because Steve Nash is clearly elite, but not athletic on the level of younger studs such as Deron Williams and Rajon Rondo.
Sports are there for us when talking about the weather just won't cut it. Whenever we need to kickstart a conversation or end an awkward silence, "HOW BOUT DEM COWBOYS?!" always trumps "Nice day out there, huh?" Sports aren’t a perfect reflecting pool for life, and life isn’t all about sports. But, at the margins, they help sustain each other.
Whether it’s Monday Night Football at the beginning of every week or daytime baseball at the end, we know that our sports keep on trucking. And somehow, despite it all, so do we.
For the love of the game.
