Daily Horoscope for October 28, 2024
General Daily Insight for October 28, 2024
Perspective isn’t easy to gain. The emotional Moon squares expansive Jupiter, blowing emotions out of proportion and making it hard to know how much is too much. When dynamic Mars trines creative Neptune at 8:31 pm EDT, we can think and act outside the box — as long as we’re careful not to overstep boundaries. When perfectionist Venus argues with critical Saturn, it can feel like our efforts just aren’t good enough, but this isn’t true. Sometimes it’s better to be kind than perfect.
AriesMarch 21 – April 19
Added struggles could become difficult to balance. You might have already had a very full to-do list going into today, and any extra tasks or hindrances put on your list may feel like the straw that breaks the camel’s back. Working to keep everything running by coming up with creative solutions is admirable, but it might not be sustainable. Something will probably have to wait till tomorrow. After all, you’re only one person, and you can only get so much done in one day!
TaurusApril 20 – May 20
Insecurity can embolden risky behavior. You may feel as if someone is putting you down or leaving you behind, and this could tempt you to lash out at them or try to sabotage the connection in some way. While it could seem like a good idea in the moment, this is likely something that you would regret later. Is this connection really something that you’re willing to throw away over one dispute? Making an effort to work things out will probably be worth it.
GeminiMay 21 – June 20
What’s left unsaid goes unheard. You might be feeling left out or like no one is listening to you, but it may be that you were expecting others to understand how you were feeling without actually expressing yourself to them. Maybe you’re struggling to communicate your feelings in the same way that you can communicate about everything else or disguising your real emotions with humor. Don’t force your loved ones to look below the surface — go ahead and spell it out.
CancerJune 21 – July 22
A lack of boundaries can entrap you in places you don’t want to be. You deserve better than people who’d enlist you to work for them with no repayment, especially if their demands are eating into time that you should devote to your hopes and dreams. There may be a side of you that wants to help and give anything you can, but some people will take and take until there’s nothing left. Learn to discern such freeloaders from the ones who really care.
LeoJuly 23 – August 22
Someone could trigger your insecurities. Active criticism, general complaints, or simple knowledge of a rival’s success — regardless of the specifics, jealousy probably is starting to creep into your mind. You might feel woefully underachieving or stuck in one place, but stay hopeful! As long as you’re putting in your best efforts, you can find more fulfillment in ignoring or even appreciating the achievements of others while trusting that your day is coming. It’s easier to be happy for someone who was happy for you.
VirgoAugust 23 – September 22
A hero of yours could let you down. You might have previously patterned yourself after them, whether they’re a family elder or a public figure, but you may be about to realize that you’re, thankfully, not much like them at all. Whether they were deceptive or just recently announced a decision that doesn’t align with your morals, you’ll know where to draw the line regarding their behavior. You can be grateful for their past inspiration, but you no longer have to follow their every lead.
LibraSeptember 23 – October 22
Curiosity could currently get the better of you. You might be so curious to know more about something that you overlook certain boundaries, which may end up more painful than exciting. Be leery of the temptation to snoop through someone else’s information or to look up the answers to a test when you’re supposed to be studying, as what follows would likely be disappointing, not encouraging. Stick to the straight and narrow, and don’t look somewhere you’ve been asked not to.
ScorpioOctober 23 – November 21
Secrets will be tough to verify. You could learn factoids that are presented as hot gossip or find a leak of information that’s not supposed to come out for weeks. No matter how thrilling the chatter is in the moment, it might not provide you with the genuine truth. Instead of being excited over something you weren’t meant to know, realize that you might have to unlearn it later when it turns out to be overhyped or fake. Wait until you hear from the source.
SagittariusNovember 22 – December 21
Emotions are running high, especially if you’re trying to hide them. You might be trying to hold it together to get through a difficult shift or on behalf of someone else who’s with you, and it can be challenging to keep how you’re feeling inside. After you’re done trying to tough it out, make sure that you carve out time to soften up and share how you’re feeling with someone else, providing space for them to do the same. Venting is great catharsis.
CapricornDecember 22 – January 19
A lack of consistency could block your progress. You might have been falling behind on certain good habits or your workload, and the cascading consequences of letting something like that fall to the wayside probably aren’t going to be reasonably fixable in a single day. If you have been consistent, today should be a lot easier, but you could encounter obstacles in the form of competition or hidden enemies. Take this as a sign to get back on course if you need to!
AquariusJanuary 20 – February 18
Making your own luck could require some clever maneuvering at the moment. You may have thought that you were doing everything that you needed to usher in abundance, but merely doing things by the book probably won’t be enough right now. You’ll have to use your innovative mind to find fresh, undiscovered ways to get ahead of the crowd, and others might not understand how you’re doing what you’re doing. Let them be confused by your methods and continue to set the trends.
PiscesFebruary 19 – March 20
People that you care about might push your buttons today. You could struggle with your boundaries as they knowingly or unknowingly push them, and having to set them again more firmly could be uncomfortable. They may not understand where you’re coming from — while you can take the time to educate them, you shouldn’t have to. Your boundaries are yours, and if something is important to you, then your loved ones should be able to respect them. Put your foot down if you have to!
Hurricanes land Camdin Portis, son of UM great Clinton Portis
The Hurricanes added a UM legacy Sunday evening.
Cornerback Camdin Portis committed to Miami. But he’s not just a touted defensive back — he’s the son of Hurricanes great Clinton Portis.
The younger Portis is a standout player in his own right. The 2026 cornerback is rated a four-star prospect in 247Sports’ composite rankings. He is listed as the No. 25 cornerback and No. 291 player in his class.
Portis, a Charlotte, North Carolina native, had 18 tackles, 10 pass breakups and two interceptions in 2023. He also holds offers from Florida, Ohio State and Tennessee, among others.
His father, Clinton, played three seasons at UM and won the 2001 national title with the Hurricanes. He also spent nine seasons in the NFL.
Was this the easiest Hail Mary catch ever? | Video
The end of the Chicago Bears-Washington Commanders game had to be seen to be believed. Fourteen of the game’s 33 points were scored in the game’s final 25 seconds, capped off by this incredible throw by uber-rookie Jayden Daniels:

Chris Perkins: Dolphins face the ugly reality that their problems are deeper than Tua’s absence
MAIMI GARDENS — The Miami Dolphins’ worst fear, the nightmare scenario they never wanted to admit to or confront, became harsh reality in Sunday’s 28-27 loss to the Arizona Cardinals — their problems go beyond quarterback Tua Tagovailoa’s absence.
The Dolphins are now 9-8 in Tua’s past 17 starts.
Tua has 24 touchdowns and 15 interceptions in that span.
This team needs more than Tua to win games.
Realists always knew this was the case. I always knew this was the case. It’s been the case since coach Mike McDaniel took over in 2022.
These Dolphins (2-5) are somehow 0-2 after the bye, a time when most coaching staffs do self-scouting and figure out what ails their team and get it corrected.
This team isn’t detail-oriented.

Cornerback Cam Smith said miscommunication led to the Cardinals’ passing game successes Sunday.
This team isn’t well-coached.
One player told me that the Cardinals made second-half adjustments. He told me that the Cardinals knew where to find the holes in the Dolphins’ zone defense.
This team thinks its past accomplishments (leading the league in offense, having a quarterback lead the league in passing yards and passer rating, getting contract extensions, being good on social media, having lively touchdown celebrations, etc …) qualifies them as a legit title contender.
And this team, for some insane reason, still thinks it can run its way to victories.
The Dolphins rushed for 150 yards Sunday and fell to 1-4 when rushing for more than 100 yards this season.
The Dolphins’ run game is there for balance, not for delivering victories. They don’t score enough touchdowns. I don’t want to hear about all the yards. I want to hear about all the touchdowns — and they don’t exist. I like the Dolphins’ run game as a contributing offensive factor, but not as the main offensive factor.
Dolphins Deep Dive: Is Miami’s season over? Perkins, Furones break down loss to Cardinals | VIDEO
Let me repeat this for the 100th time: this team wins on big plays from its passing game. When Tua can’t connect with wide receivers Tyreek Hill (six receptions, 72 yards Sunday) and Jaylen Waddle (four receptions, 45 yards) on big passing plays, the Dolphins will struggle to score, and most times they’ll lose.
This was the issue when Tua was playing before his most recent concussion.
The Dolphins knew it and they failed to confront it.
That’s unforgivable.
This team is finding out that it must be more precise in its preparations.
This team is finding out its must be more precise carrying out its game plan.
Those who choose to live in the world of make believe, where teams skip steps on their way to greatness and think that’s OK, are in a state of shock right now.
This is a team that has issues with its one-dimensional offense (they can’t score or win if they don’t connect on deep passes), issues with its bend-and-sometimes break defense (two Arizona receivers surpassed 100 yards Sunday) and has issues with coaching (McDaniel can’t harness some of the best talent in the league).
Tagovailoa contributed to the madness.
He had three fumbles, the last one hit him right in the hands on a shotgun snap. Tua blew it. He fumbled. He wet the bed.
The ball glanced off his hands and behind him. He had to bat the ball backward and it barely made it out of bounds for a safety before the Arizona defensive players could pounce on it for a touchdown.
Tua wasn’t alone.
I’ve told you many times before that this team’s top players haven’t come through in big games on a consistent basis.
On Sunday, Tua, Tyreek, Waddle and cornerback Jalen Ramsey all had their bad moments.
And being without defensive lineman Zach Sieler (orbital bone fracture), perhaps the team’s best big-game player, and slot cornerback Kader Kohou (neck) were huge defensive losses. Huge.
At one point the Dolphins will realize they’re a fundamentally flawed roster.
Until that time, however, the losses, mostly against good teams, will continue to mount and the Dolphins, I guess, will continue to misunderstand the reasons.
Show Caption1 of 28ExpandDave Hyde: Sunday is what a quarter-century of Dolphins football feels like
MIAMI GARDENS — When Arizona’s field goal was good, when Tua Tagovailoa’s return officially soured — when the Miami Dolphins lost another game they couldn’t lose — the clock read 4:05 p.m. at Hard Rock Stadium.
It struck midnight on the season. There’s no pretending anymore. It’s not even Halloween and all hope is gone.
This day wasn’t just what a quarter-century of disappointment looks like around this team. It should cause team owner Steve Ross to evaluate once again what is happening here.
Actually, the less said about Sunday’s loss, the better. The Dolphins led all day. They had a chance put the game away all day, too. Their offense then had a final chance to seal the win by grinding down the final minutes with the lead but went into cold storage after getting one first down against the 26th-ranked defense. One! That’s loser ball, folks.
The Dolphins defense then had a chance to win the game with Arizona starting at its 11-yard line and down two points. Arizona quarterback Kyler Murray won it instead.
That happens regularly in today’s NFL, where even pretty-good quarterbacks can write a day’s ending. Murray overcame a holding penalty, threw his offense downfield, converted a razzle-dazzle, third-down run of 7 yards for a first down to all but place the winning, 33-yard field goal through the posts as the clock ended.
On the game.
One the season.
On this latest era?

This was to be the breakout season that last year wasn’t. Remember? Coach Mike McDaniel held team meetings on the 24th minute of the hour to signify the 24 years without a playoff win that the natural target.
General manager Chris Grier was so certain this was a contending roster he chuckled at media for wondering about the offensive line, gave new contracts to keep everyone together (Tagovailoa, Jalen Ramsey, Jaylen Waddle …) and didn’t consider the backup quarterback situation a problem.
Now it’s all a problem. They’re 2-5. They’re playing the NFL’s easiest schedule (based on opponents win percentage). They’d have to go 9-1 from here to match last year’s record that got the last playoff berth. Tua talked about how a few years ago they turned around from 1-7.
“Anything’s possible,” he said.
Tell me about it. Anything has happened. Tua showed this is a functional offense with him (and let’s understand there had to be some rust after five weeks off). But it’s the mistakes that define this team — not the good plays. Penalties. Turnovers. Mental miscues. Over and over.
It’s reminiscent of Don Shula being asked once why he worried so much about little mistakes.
“What’s a little mistake?” he answered.
On Sunday, the penalties were cleaned up (two for 15 yards) but there were four fumbles — though three were recovered. The fourth was a shot-gun snap that ricocheted off Tua’s hands through the end zone for an Arizona safety. Two points. In a game Arizona won by one point.
“I’ve got to catch the ball, that’s it,” he said.
Dolphins Deep Dive: Is Miami’s season over? Perkins, Furones break down loss to Cardinals | VIDEO
The Dolphins looked like a functional NFL team with him. No doubt. But a winning team? A contending team? The kind of team you’d expect after six years spent putting it together under Grier — or nine, depending on how you look at it?
Tua, asked about watching Arizona drive down the field for the win, said he felt, “just helpless. We didn’t get another opportunity to go out there and give our team a chance to hopefully put some points on the board.”
But that’s just it. His offense did have the chance to win. It came on the possession before Arizona drove for the winning field goal. Tua got the ball with just under nine minutes at the 30-yard line after Arizona cut the lead to 27-25.
It punted back to Arizona with five minutes left.
Add it all up and it’s like we’re going back to the start, back to July when safety Jordan Poyer came to his first Dolphins camp after years in Buffalo.
“Playing against this team over the past few years, you get a sense of, ‘OK, if you get on top of this team, they might fold,’ ” he said. “What is that? What is it that happens in those moments where we get hit in the mouth? What happens in those moments?”
It happened again Sunday. Ross has decisions to make. Who to keep? What to do about Grier? McDaniel? There’s no big rush here. There’s a couple of months left in the NFL season to make a decision. It will feel like a couple of years the way this is going.
The Dolphins season is done, though, except for the bookkeeping. Do they finish 5-12? Or 7-10? It matters little in the big picture. The clock struck midnight Sunday on this year’s team. Hope left the season. It’s early with 10 games left, but not too early to say, “Check, please.”

If there was any doubt, there can be none now: The Miami Heat’s arena is Dwyane Wade’s house.
Amid a Sunday celebration of the most iconic figure in the franchise’s 37 seasons, the Heat unveiled on the front steps of Kaseya Center a bronze statue of Wade in his iconic “This is my house!” pose.
Former Miami Heat player Dwyane Wade, upper left, reacts at his statue unveiling ceremony outside Kaseya Center, Sunday, Oct. 27, 2024, in Miami, Fla. (AP Photo/Michael Laughlin)It was on March 9, 2009, while the facility still was known as AmericanAirlines Arena, that Wade, the team’s three-time championship guard, capped a 48-point performance with a steal followed by a buzzer-beating, game-winning 3-pointer at the end of double-overtime, immediately hopping on a courtside table opposite the Heat bench, pumping his hands against his chest and making it known the building was his.
“This is my house! This is my house!” he bellowed amid the raucous celebration after taking down his hometown Chicago Bulls, as Heat owner Micky Arison looked on from below, amid the frenzy.
Now that moment will endure for posterity alongside Biscayne Boulevard, strides from Northeast 7th Street that was named “Dwyane Wade Boulevard” in his honor in February 2021.

Wade, 42, took a deep breath after the statue was unveiled before addressing the crowd, noting he had limited prepared comments.
“I wanted to feel this,” he said. “Life goes by so fast.”
He paused.
“Like that’s crazy,” he said with a smile of the 8-foot statue directly behind. “Who is that guy? This is out of body.”
He then attempted to sum up his Heat experience, saying, “I can’t write this script any better.”
While the actual pose for the statue was kept a closely guarded secret, there was little doubt that the moment of unbridled emotion against his hometown team would be the moment cast for the ages of the franchise’s all-time leading scorer.

- Miami Heat | This time it’s Dwyane Wade’s turn for Heat honor, with statue unveiling on Sunday
Sunday, in an outdoor ceremony, Wade, Heat officials, former teammates and current Heat players basked in the moment, with the team also to honor Wade in another statue commemoration at halftime of Monday night’s game against the visiting Detroit Pistons, 21 years to the date of when Wade made his NBA debut with 18 points in a road loss to Allen Iverson and the Philadelphia 76ers.
Since then, Wade paired with Shaquille O’Neal for the first of the franchise’s three titles, in 2006, and then with Big Three teammates LeBron James and Chris Bosh for titles in 2012 and ’13.
Wade called Sunday his, “set-in-stone moment.”
To Heat center Bam Adebayo, it was an overdue ceremony.
“I feel like he should have had it as an active player,” Adebayo said.
Among Sunday’s speakers was former Heat captain and current Heat executive Udonis Haslem, who spoke of Wade’s unceasing confidence.
“I often tell him, ‘Don’t anybody ever tell you no?'” Haslem said to the assembled crowd, “and he said, ‘no.'”
Haslem added, “You continue to inspire … and today, you’re officially 305 for life.”
Wade, too, spoke of what became his second home, and for more than the Heat culture.
“You guys embraced me, Miami,” he said. “And I felt a home here right away.”
Four days after the Kaseya Center court was named in his honor, Heat President Pat Riley also addressed the crowd.
“As the greatest player ever in Miami Heat history, yes it is, it’s his day,” Riley said.
Riley was followed by Wade’s oldest child, Zaire Wade.
“For me, he’s a father first,” Zaire Wade said, as a tear dropped from his father’s left eye. “Love you pops.”
Sunday’s moment was another moment of graduation for the Heat into the NBA’s pantheon of franchises with histories rich enough to be cast in bronze.
Already in place in NBA cities are statues honoring Bill Russell, Red Auerbach, Larry Bird (Boston); O’Neal, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson, Jerry West, Kobe Bryant (Los Angeles); Hakeem Olajuwon (Houston); Tim Duncan (San Antonio); Julius Erving, Wilt Chamberlain, Allen Iverson, Charles Barkley (Philadelphia); Karl Malone, John Stockton (Utah); Dominique Wilkins (Atlanta); George Mikan (Minneapolis) and Reggie Miller (Indianapolis).
Wade already has his No. 3 in the rafters at Kaseya Center, with acknowledgment of his Hall of Fame presence attached. Wade also has a banner in the arena rafters for his gold medal with Team USA at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
The Wade statue was sculpted by Omri Amrany and Oscar León of Fine Art Studio Rotblatt Amrany, the same pair who sculpted the Michael Jordan statue at Chicago’s United Center.
Wade said Heat Culture resonated and still resonates.
“Because of that belief,” he said. “I gave everything I had to the game,”
Now personified in bronze.
“One word that comes around a lot is legacy,” Wade said of a career of interviews. “I have words to sum up what legacy is … you want to believe one day you leave some footprint.
“I believe I gave you guys something set in stone to believe in. This is my house.”
Mishandled snap costs Dolphins vs. Cardinals; safety Jevon Holland hurt in loss
MIAMI GARDENS — The Miami Dolphins had it all going for them in the middle of the third quarter of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa’s first game back since missing four on injured reserve recovering from his latest concussion.
They held a 10-point lead, 20-10. They built that two-possession advantage with Tagovailoa throwing his first touchdown in that anticipated return. He had a moment where he drew big cheers from Dolphins fans because he slid at the end of a scramble. They just got another stop, so their offense got the ball back with a chance to add to the lead.
Then, they let the Arizona Cardinals back into the game in what snowballed into a 28-27 last-second loss Sunday afternoon at Hard Rock Stadium to sink Miami to 2-5.
Tagovailoa mishandled a snap from center Aaron Brewer. The football rolled toward the goal line, and as Tagovailoa rushed back, he found it best to bat the ball through the back of the end zone for a safety.
Two points were awarded to the Cardinals, who then used their ensuing possession to drive down the field and score a touchdown. They were right back in a game they eventually won.
“I got to catch the ball. That’s it,” Tagovailoa said.
The shotgun snap appeared to be on-target from center Aaron Brewer, and Tagovailoa was expecting it when it came. If anything, maybe it came out a little hot for the quarterback.
Coach Mike McDaniel split the blame.

“(Brewer) would say he should have taken a little steam off of it, and Tua said he should have caught it,” McDaniel said.
Said Brewer: “Probably just a little too much heat for him. That’s really all it was. It hit him right in the middle of the hands.”
The safety was the only of four Dolphins fumbles that cost them. Tagovailoa was stripped on a sack on the opening drive, which was recovered by right tackle Austin Jackson. Later in that series, tight end Julian Hill had the ball punched out at the 1-yard line, but left guard Robert Jones was there to scoop it up. And on the Dolphins’ second drive, there was a fumbled under-center snap exchange between Tagovailoa and Brewer, which Tagovailoa pounced on.
Holland hurtDolphins safety Jevon Holland injured his left knee in the first half of Sunday’s game.
Holland exited in the second quarter at Hard Rock Stadium and was ruled out at the start of the second half.
He was examined in the sideline injury tent, exited momentarily to test it and then went back into the tent for further evaluation. He then used the stationary bike on the sideline.
Marcus Maye entered for Holland to play safety alongside Jordan Poyer.
After the game, McDaniel indicated Holland may have avoided a serious injury, but he still needed to gather more information from follow-up tests scheduled Monday.
Holland had just returned from injury. He missed last week’s game against the Indianapolis Colts, sidelined with a hand fracture that caused him to exit the Oct. 6 game against the New England Patriots early.

Hill activeDolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill, who entered Sunday questionable, played in Tagovailoa’s return to game action. He led the Dolphins with six receptions for 72 yards.
Hill’s availability was expected after McDaniel said Friday he was “very optimistic” Hill could play through the foot injury that popped up on the team’s injury report this past week.
The speedy wideout was first added to the injury report on Thursday and then missed Friday’s practice before facing the Cardinals.
After Hill was only targeted twice all last Sunday in Indianapolis, Tagovailoa found him twice on the opening drive against Arizona in the quarterback’s first game in 45 days. They later had a 31-yard connection, with Hill beating a cornerback in single coverage along the sideline.
Elsewhere on the roster, after cornerback Storm Duck was deemed doubtful with his ankle injury, he was ruled out before Sunday’s game.
Duck was inactive for a Dolphins secondary that’s also missing nickel cornerback Kader Kohou, who was deemed out Friday with a neck injury.
Miami’s cornerbacks called upon second-year player Cam Smith, who was activated off IR this past week after his preseason hamstring injury. The Dolphins also had Siran Neal and Ethan Bonner as options behind Jalen Ramsey and Kendall Fuller.
Dolphins defensive tackle Zach Sieler was inactive after he was ruled out Friday with an orbital bone fracture. Other Miami inactives were running back Jeff Wilson Jr., outside linebacker Mohamed Kamara, offensive lineman Andrew Meyer and tight end Tanner Conner.
Dolphins tight end Julian Hill suffered a shoulder injury in the first quarter Sunday, but returned into the game.
The Cardinals had starters in cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting and nose tackle Roy Lopez inactive. Others were cornerback Kei’Trel Clark, offensive lineman Christian Jones, tight end Travis Vokolek and wide receiver Xavier Weaver.
Former Dolphins defensive tackle Tim Bowens is honored Sunday during a half time ceremony in Miami Gardens. (AP Photo/Rebecca Blackwell) Bowens honoredDolphins great Tim Bowens, a defensive tackle who played with the team from 1994 through 2004, was inducted into the team’s Ring of Honor at halftime Sunday.
Bowens is the 28th member of the Dolphins’ Ring of Honor and the first one welcomed in 10 years.
Bowens totaled 407 tackles with 22 sacks as an interior defensive lineman. He forced nine fumbles, recovered five, had one interception and deflected 21 passes in his 11-year NFL career, played entirely with Miami. He was selected to two Pro Bowls (1998, 2002).
With other Ring of Honor members present Sunday, Hall of Fame linebacker Zach Thomas did the pregame chant, hyping up the crowd ahead of kickoff against the Cardinals.
Bowens’ name and No. 95 is now affixed at Hard Rock Stadium, next to fellow great defensive lineman Manny Fernandez. Dolphins CEO Tom Garfinkel introduced Bowens at the halftime ceremony as his name was unveiled on the facing of the upper deck.
