|Winter 2026
SHOULD YOU FIND YOURSELF AROUND SO-CALLED CIVILIZED discourse this holiday season, you'll likely encounter a well-worn idea about televised kickoffs and tip-offs on Thanksgiving and Christmas. Which is: They should not be happening.
-
The argument hinges on the sanctity of the few days each year that every overworked, underpaid American is obligated to take off. How dare we sully them with...sports? Next, consider the thousands of players, coaches, team and league personnel, reporters, photographers, stadium employees-everyone it takes to run a multimillion-dollar broadcast.

Finally, goes the conventional wisdom, stipulating that the games do occur, you at home shouldn't tune in and miss precious moments with your family.
Let us be clear: Put the damn game on. We endorse it.

The BEST New
IT’S SELDOM SILENT IN MIAMI. THE AIR IS FULL OF CRICKETS AND the mm-tss, mm-tss of house music and the staccato backfires of souped-up whips gunnin’ down the causeway. But in the neighborhood of Little River, another welcome sound can be heard: the oceanic murmur of folks enjoying themselves. You hear it when you approach Sunny’s, a vast steakhouse where inside and outside blend together, Miami style. Sunny’s is a party. Like, the best party in town.
