All of these events and more had a significant fantasy impact for many,...
Hello all and welcome to a weekly series that I am starting about a fourth into the season but plan to continue throughout the remainder of the year. In this series I will just be going over each week in the Premier League and my thought on it.  Last weekend’s Premier League games could be some of the most...

For other players, week one was full of dropped balls, missed throws, fumbles, interceptions,...

Coming off of a 9-7 season and barely missing the playoffs, the Cowboys have a lot to improve upon going into this year. Along with that, they also have high expectations to...
The NFL season kicks off this Thursday leaving all fantasy football players eager for the first matchup between the Eagles and the Falcons.
