Over the past eight years since Canespace began way back in 2006 we have steadily become much more than just your typical sports blog.
Most of the college sports web sites or blogs spend all their time every day simply regurgitating the same basic facts and stats and/or covering the insatiable demand for the always popular high school football recruiting news.
Here at Canespace we have been kicking butt and taking names for a long, long time now. As we have gone through the years we have learned that "community" and being part of the "CanesFam" matters as much as the score of the game, the team's season record or anything else sports related.
We have traveled long and far to North Carolina, Georgia and South Carolina. We have been to Tampa, Orlando, Fort Myers, Boca Raton, Islamorada, DeLand and Jacksonville.
We have been deep into the heart of Gator Country in Gainesville and north to Tallahassee to see our Miami Hurricanes take on the Florida State Seminoles at Doak Campbell Stadium (football), Dick Howser Stadium (baseball) and The Civic Center (basketball) in the State's Capitol.
In fact, Canespace has become a family, a social club of sorts and group of people who do things together well beyond the scope of University of Miami athletic events.
Sure hanging out by your computer for 24 hours around National Signing Day is fun and all but believe me, there is life outside of those four walls surrounding you as you read this.
We strongly recommend that at least every once in a while that you get up, put down the texting device step away from the computer and go outside and play. We know that if you try it, you'll like it!
Since we started this blog a little over six years ago Canespacers have been white water rafting, camping, scalloping, kayaking, partying, fishing, traveling and site-seeing in four different States.
We have also participated in many other activities that most people who read the blog on a casual or even a regular basis have no idea is going on. And, trust me, we have had a blast doing it!
Last year in February long-time blogger Old Skool and I went on another Canespace fishing trip in Central Florida on Lake Istokpoga near Sebring. And needless to say, we kicked bass!
So, again as usual, and as you can clearly see, a good time was had by all. Well, except for the 12 bass we caught in about 3 hours time? But, since we practice catch and release like most responsible outdoorsmen, we let them all go to live to fight another day.
This year we hosting a UM sports marathon that we have dubbed the "Four Play". Between 2/19/14 and 2/22/14 we will be attending four Miami Hurricane sporting events on campus in Coral Gables: Two basketball games and two baseball games. The "Four Play" events are as follows:
- UM baseball vs FAU on 2/19/14 at 6 PM
- UM basketball vs Notre Dame on 2/19/14 at 9 PM.
- UM baseball vs Florida on 2/21/14 at 7 PM.
- UM baseketball vs Boston College on 2/22/14 at Noon.
We hope that you will join us for this four day UM sports extravaganza!
So now the only question left is what outdoor adventure is in store for this year's off-season? Our activity committee led by NativeCane and Old Skool is still in the planning stages for this year's event and we will let you know what we have in store so you can decide if you are interested in participating.
Until then we strongly recommend that you go outside and play.
After all, it is the Canespace way.

I know I'm late andI haven't been on in a while. I fell in love with the canes in 88. Mia vs notre dame we lost. But ill never forget my Abuelo asking me if I liked football. And he said which team and I said the ones with the U on the side of their helmet. I was hooked we have ran up on some tough times. But that is the beauty in sports. When we start playing cane ball we will really appreciate it. Hopefully sooner then later

Soup,
I go hunting every year in Andalusia Alabama on a friend of mine's land. I own a Winchester 70 with a really nice Nikon scope. I've bagged a deer out of the back door. If you need tips, I've got em. All my kids hunt. 33, 29, and my 4 year old will too soon. It definitely brings you back down to earth. My avatar is my 4 year old throwing up the U. Nuff said. I raise em right. 12%.
