BOYNTON BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Former Iowa State and Miami Dolphins defensive back Barry Hill has died at age 57. The team said Tuesday he died last week of complications from pneumonia following surgery. Hill set Big Eight Conference records at Iowa State for career interceptions (21) and interceptions in a season (nine). He also played basketball for the Cyclones before being drafted by the Dolphins in the fifth round in 1975. He appeared in 20 games during his two seasons with Miami and blocked a fiel |

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) - It's not quite true the Miami Dolphins had nothing at stake in the regular-season finale: They might have been playing for Tony Sparano's job. In what might have been the last chance to save Sparano's job, the Dolphins lost 38-7 to the New England Patriots on Sunday - a fitting end to a dud of a season. Neither Chad Henne nor Tyler Thigpen could do much with the offense as Miami fell behind 38-0 before a late touchdown helped it avert its second shutout of the season. Sparano l |

| (MySportsbook) - A Week 17 game at the New England Patriots may be Tony Sparano's last as head coach of the Miami Dolphins. Or it may not. Depending on whose reports are believed, Sparano's status for 2011 was either confirmed after a discussion between owner Stephen Ross and former Miami personnel guru Bill Parcells -- or such a conversation hasn't actually happened and Sparano's role going forward is still undetermined. NFL Network reporter Mike Lombardi claimed the former on Wednesday and said Sparano w |
