Russell Westbrook: The Rec-League All Star
Austin Knapp July 8, 19 Before I get into this I would like to clarify that this is strictly about Russell on the court, I don’t care how you feel about how the man is off it. The way Russell plays on the court is a relic of how basketball used to be. This freakishContinueContinue reading “Russell Westbrook: The Rec-League All Star”
Is Shea Patterson the Kevin Durant of College Football?
Holy mother of God, I really wish this story was true and not just a fake tweet. Yesterday, the Twitter account @cfbquotes posted this tweet regarding the Michigan quarterback’s apparent misstep of not logging out of his burner account. https://twitter.com/cfbquotes/status/1147976312910274560 What a development this would be.

Don’t Even Think About Drafting the Bears in Fantasy Football
Don’t be the first person to draft a defense in your Fantasy League. I’ll take it a step further: Don’t draft a defense until the second-to-last round. For most other positions (QB, RB, WR), there is a stronger likelihood of a high drafted player performing to expectations. This is not the case for D/ST unitsContinueContinue reading “Don’t Even Think About Drafting the Bears in Fantasy Football”

One Team. One Nation. USWNT on to the Semi-Finals
USA! USA! USA! That was me, about 4 hours ago in the middle of my office, right after the United States Women’s National Team beat France in a nail-biting 2-1 game. It was a close one, but the representatives of our fair country made it through the game with a victory. But first, they hadContinueContinue reading “One Team. One Nation.
