i think down in miami he had us all as the same person. he quickly found out that dwyane wade is totally different from rafer alston and rafer alston is totally different from lamar odom and so on and so on. i think that's the way... one way i see his adjustment from then to now. and now he's more into being a little more uplifting as opposed to so negative as he was in miami. you see him rant and rave down the sideline, but i can tell you, the next day in practice and film session, he's more inspiring than he is... than what you see on the game floor. >> how much a role does he play in your ability to bounce back? what does it say to you after those tough losses, like a lebron shot or those plays in philadelphia? >> he is instrumental in a few ways. one, he tells us to keep believing, to understand that we're a good team. there's a reason we've gotten this far. and two, he's really big on taking the blame. you don't see that from a lot of coaches. if he makes a mistake, as you mentioned, the lebron shot, the glen davis shot, he quickly ta

how would they deal with the hanging chads in miami-dade county in florida? they had 70 volunteers from the league of women voters -- now, they haven't been on my side very much. they don't seem really bipartisan to me. long tables, 70 volunteers from the league of women voters. they would sit down at a table and they would bring in these punch card ballots and set them on one side of each of the ladies that were there working, issue them three nice sharp number two lead pencils, where you take your basic skills, where i come from, and they would take these punch card ballots and clean them up. they'd punch the pencil through the hole, rack it off and stack up these cleaned up ballots over on this other side where once they got done cleaning up the haing chads, these 70 volunteers for the league of women voters, then the process ballots would go through the vote counting machine. now, does that give you a lot of confidence if you put somebody there at a table to decide your vote for you where they poke the pencil and where the chads are hanging? not to me it

next is a caller from miami. caller: i am calling from miami and i want the world to know what is happening in honduras. i have been happening -- i want everybody to know that what is going on in honduras right now is beneficial for the country. it was not a coup. it was a judicial order followed by the military. it was backed by congress. it was backed by the attorney general. all of the population is happy with what is going on in honduras. the images you guys see on tv is not a representation of what is really going on. this guy was driving our country -- it was falling apart. everything that is bad was going on in honduras. everybody is happy with what is going on. i think people have to know what the truth is, not just see what is shown on the television because that is not a representation of what is going on in the country. i ask everybody to these be informed when they back somebody because you cannot just follow what you see on tv because that is not a real representation. host: how long have you been in

a nice evening look at downtown miami. the marlins have a 6-3 lead.les coming up in the ninth inning. brett carroll has come on in the game in right field with jeremy hermida, he is no longer in the game. and here is the closer, matt lindstrom on to try to earn the save. >> buck: matt lindstrom picked up his second win of the season back on june 9th against the cardinals and he also had a win against the mets way back back in april. a big arm. the control sometimes a concern. 20 walks, 26 strikeouts, but he has a powerful arm. he throws a fastball, a slider and occasionally will yous a changeup. it is is not very often. it is all about hard and harder for matt lindstrom. >> jim: adam jones leads off. he takes a high fastball. he has pretty good giddyup on that pitch. lindstrom's e.r.a. for a closer, buck, quite high for a closer at 5.72. the orioles need to get two men on to get the tying run to the plate. >> buck: that will work. >> buck: lindstrom has been hit around by right-handers. they have hit .314 against him. >> jim: 1-1 the count. the fastba

>> i'll tell you, it has been a big story here today in miami- dade county. the winds have been very, very strong. when the team came off the bus about 4:00, everybody was trying to get inside the stadium here, but everybody got soaked. dirt was flying up in the air. the tarp on the field was flying flop the air as the grounds crew was trying to get tractors on top of it to pin it down to try to protect the field. it was a scramble everywhere. quite a mess. our television truck, the stairs, the steel stairs of our television truck got blown out of place, but things have calmed down quite a bit now. the tarp is off the field. we are told that in about 20 minutes another cell is headed our way. we don't know if it is going to hit right in this area. if it does, it is fast-moving, which is good news, and we should see baseball here on time, if not with a little bit of a delay that is good news for somebody like chris ray who is back with the team. that is another big story today. alberto castillo was sent down after the series with philadelphia. chris ray has be

this one we are going to show you, a student from miami asked him a hypothetical question. the answer was very memorable and led cbs evening news that e. >> is a question sending troops into central america? >> because of threat to american security, would you consider sending american troops into central america? >> it would have to be very evident that it was a direct threat to the united states. the truth of the matter is, dating back to some days where the big colossus of the north and the united states did lean on, and practiced a certain type of diplomacy, our neighbors do not want us to send that kind of military help. they do not want our troops down there. we respect them for that. el salvador has said, we need some help, weapons, ammunition, and training. we are providing that. we will provide the mandhir, we do not want yours. -- we will provide the manpower. we do not want your, he said. >> we have had some high-powered guests on the state. what does it feel like to take this show to the white house? >> you cannot get any bigger than that. that was before my tim

here's another headline, this one from miami. it concerns the coup in honduras. and "this date" newspaper has politics on its pages with governor sanford said he will serve as best he can and of lt. bower is saying let's move forward. if the governor resigns -- but yesterday the governor says he has no intention of resigning. this late website has some of -- the slate website has some of the-mails from gov. sanford and maria in argentina, his mistress. caller: good morning, i did not think we're going into iraq to win anything. i do not think relieving because it is a democracy or a place where people will no longer be a press. i think the obama administration realized it was pretty much a lost cause. we just wanted to conquer it and make it of an extended part of the american empire. i have the uncomfortable feeling that obama will just move troops into parts of iraq and afghanistan. what worries me is the way that obama soft-pedaled ahmadinejad's election. i have the uncomfortable feeling that these two will be big buddies after we leave and our influence is re

miami, john on the line with the republicans. caller: thanks for taking my call. wanted to make a quick observation. it is ironic, about 30 years ago, the current iranian country, the government came into power on the backs of student uprising and on the backs of the reformists. the same uprisers and reformists are attacking current uprisers and reformists. guest: interesting point. i think many people whom i have spoken to and e-mails from, said it is reminiscent of 1979. the people that rose up against the shah in 1979 and some of the main figures of the revolution see themselves in the opposition camp. this is the point i was making earlier. never have we seen the revolutionaries so divided. host: a lot of young people in the streets expressing their dissatisfaction with the results. is this a generational split in or are the older people who are also upset too old to go throw their stone? guest: about 2/3 of the country is under 32. they were born after the revolution or unknowing children at the time of the revolution. they have no loyalty toward the republic
