LPL & LCK DFS Picks for 2/3: DraftKings & FanDuel League of Legends Daily Fantasy

Well, I think I joked yesterday in this space both about my Fanduel results (no win) and WE trying to spice up the two-game slate (no win). Maybe I'll lay off with my natural witticisms today just a bit to avoid dropping another hex on this nice little four-game slate. Even the EDG win in […]

Marcus Semien to the Blue Jays - Fantasy Impact

Toronto may have come up short in the Francisco Lindor sweepstakes earlier this offseason, but they got a new middle infielder last week with the signing of Marcus Semien to a one-year deal.

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 7

Week 6 only had the two Memphis games postponed due to health and safety protocols which has been on the lower side lately.
