For the last several months, Americans have nervously anticipated a recession as the market has fallen more than 20% since the beginning of the year.

If anything has become perfectly clear during the earliest weeks of fantasy draft season, it’s this: We cannot wait to not pick Josh Jacobs. We are aggressively not drafting Jacobs across all platforms. In fact, he’s currently falling outside the top-20 running backs at both Yahoo and NFC despite having never finished worse than RB16 in any season.

Pete Alonso is a natural at MLB’s Home Run Derby. The New York Mets’ first baseman has won the derby twice in a row and is the favorite at BetMGM to make it a three-peat. He is +155, the shortest odds on the board. No player has ever won three in a row. Ken Griffey Jr., who won in 1994, 1998 and 1999, is the only three-time winner. There are a few reasons Alonso is good at the event. First, he’s a tremendous power hitter. Go figure. He has a repeatable swing that’s perfect for the event…. Source link

When Dustin Johnson tapped in a par putt on the 18th at St. Andrews to close out his round at the 2022 Open Championship, it marked a small but significant moment in golf history. Johnson would be the last LIV Golf player to compete in one of golf’s majors under current rules. (Or maybe Johnson wasn’t the very last. More on that later.) LIV Golf, the Saudi Arabia-backed breakaway tour that has lured Johnson, Phil Mickelson and other big-name players, has upended the entire golf world in… Source link
