Three Week 3 Quarterbacks to Draft in DraftKings
You probably made good money last week if you went with Drew Brees or Jared Goff and avoided Tom Brady; however, Tyrod Taylor was also a flop. Sorry about that one, but early season returns on adjustments is necessary in DraftKings if you want to stay on top and winning money.

A Picture Is Worth a Thousand Words
A few shots from Saturday September 15th at the Winnipeg Jets training camp. That day was the “Fan Fest Day” which meant that all of the training camp drills were taking place in front of a rather substantial crowd at the Bell MTS Iceplex that morning, where both veterans and prospects alike were competing to solidify their spots on the Winnipeg Jets’ roster for the 2018-2019 National Hockey League season. Above is a shot of Canadian-born veteran Brandon Tanev saucering a pass to Finnish rookie prospect Kristian Vesalainen.

Fencing: The Coolest Underrated Sport out There
"Fencing? That's like sword fighting... right?" is a sentence that came out of my own mouth before joining it myself. Ever since I heard the word during my freshman year, it caught my interest. I was very disappointed to find that I was too busy to join that year. However, my schedule opened up enough in my sophomore year to add one after-school activity. I had the option to pick from drama or fencing. Considering this article, I think you can guess to which one I chose.

Canelo vs. GGG 2
Tonight is the night. PPV Superstar Saul Canelo Alverez takes on Gennady Golovkin in a hugely anticipated rematch. The first fight ended in dramatic circumstances, as it was surrounded in controversy. The reason, many thought the fan favourite from Kazakhstan was robbed on the cards by an unfairly wide score card from world renowned female judge Adelaide Byrd.

Can Andrew Bynum Make a Comeback?
Earlier this week, Shams Charania sent out an unexpected tweet. According to Charania, Andrew Bynum is attempting a comeback and hopes to work out with teams before training camp.

Eight Week 2 Wide Receivers to Draft in DraftKings
We've already looked at three quarterbacks and five running backs to consider drafting this Sunday and today, we'll be looking at eight wide receivers. Undoubtedly, the bread and butter position in any PPR format and especially so in DraftKings, competitive, prolific receivers are expensive. You'll need to choose four (at least three and a flex, we highly recommend using a WR in your flex) to finalize your roster on Sunday. Adding budgetary players at other positions will leave you with about $6,200 for all four of your roster positions and every dollar will count. Here are eight receivers with favorable matchups this week or go-to receivers on prolific offenses that are bound to have big days. Whatever gets you the most bang for your buck.

Which NBA Team is Ready to Take Down the Reigning Champion Golden State Warriors?
With the ability of NBA teams to have more cap space and sign more upper-level talent to play on the same team, "super teams" have been created. The Warriors got lucky and drafted into Steph Curry and Klay Thompson. Now that they have reached their primes, they have been able to add players like Kevin Durant and even Boogie Cousins in this last free agency period to add to their already stacked roster. (It's all fun and games, until you're left with a crummy bench, like they have.)
