The Philadelphia 76ers made a couple of very nice moves in the offseason in order to acquire the needed toughness and two-way ability in order to compete in the tough Eastern Conference. The moves they made also improved the depth as the Sixers have amassed some of the best talents in the league on their roster. Led by the star duo of Joel Embiid and James Harden, the team has a rising star in Tyrese Maxey as well as solid players in Tobias Harris, PJ Tucker, Danuel House Jr., and… Source link

Baseball’s best are jockeying for position in the sport’s second season — the mayhem of October. The rest of MLB’s clubs are looking back at what went wrong. In a sport where transactions and roster decisions provide clear expectations, we have separated out the rebuilding teams from the ones who entered 2022 expecting to be setting playoff rotations, not vacation plans. We ranked the success of 2022’s rebuilders earlier this week, and now it’s time to flip things over and assess… Source link

The 2022 college football season is a month old. Yep, Week 4 was the final weekend of September as most teams are now a third of the way through their regular seasons. With October approaching, there’s no better time to see how the 10 conferences at the top level of college football stack up to one another. And, spoiler alert, the SEC is at No. 1. 10. MAC The biggest two wins for the MAC so far are Bowling Green’s upset of Marshall after the Thundering Herd beat Notre Dame and Eastern… Source link

In continuing fantasy draft preparations, we’re seeing how our projections here at The Athletic measure up against other rankings. We already explored some of the gaps between our projections and NHL dot com’s rankings. For a quick refresher, these are the categories we used in the projections: goals, assists, plus/minus, power play points, shots on goal, and hits for skaters; goalies count wins, save percentages, goals-against average, and shutouts.  Now, we’ll see how our rankings… Source link

Google conducted an SEO office hours hangout in which someone asked if adding content on a regular basis was helpful for ranking. It’s a good question because it’s commonly understood that publishing content on a regular basis is a good idea because it keeps readers coming back for more. Publishing Daily Good For Rankings? This is the question that was asked: “Does posting one content daily increase ranking?” It’s unclear who at Google answered the question. This is the answer that… Source link

This is a weird spot in the Fantasy Football calendar. Most of you probably haven’t drafted yet, but many thousands of you have. This means, I’ve gotta start straddling the line between in-season and Draft Prep content.  And I’ve got the perfect solution. Let’s take an early look at some waiver-wire options. Maybe your first waiver-wire run is this week and you’re looking to make some moves. Or, maybe you haven’t… Source link

The AV Club Meet Lodge Kerrigan, the best filmmaker you’ve never heard of In 1994, Lodge Kerrigan won the Independent Spirit Awards’ Someone To Watch award for his debut feature Clean, Shaven, which starred Peter Greene (Pulp Fiction, The Usual Suspects) as a schizophrenic trying to regain custody of his daughter. Ten years later, Kerrigan’s third film, Keane, explored similar themes, following the title character—played with restless magnetism by Damian Lewis (Band Of Brothers,… Source link

Power Rankings are silly. Power Rankings are fun. I like silly and fun things. And you probably do, too. Today’s assignment is to rank how fantasy-useful the 32 NFL clubs are. I considered ADP and market behavior, then added in some scouting takes and a little special sauce (probably Thousand Island dressing). It’s my list and sure, it’s subjective. I welcome your reasonable disagreement at any time: @scott_pianowski on Twitter. Here’s the 1.0 version of Fantasy Power Rankings,… Source link

In the 21st century, we love life hacks, cheat codes and shortcuts. We want positive results with minimal effort, and we want it now! Did our great-grandfathers need cheat codes to storm Normandy? (Well, I guess they did use spies.) Did our grandfathers need shortcuts during the tumultuous ’60s and ’70s? (Then again, I suppose Watergate was America’s greatest cheat code.) OK, let’s start over. As a human race, we’ve always loved cheat codes and shortcuts! Viva la hack! Hacking a… Source link
