Apple, Google, and Microsoft Team Up to Vanquish the Password

2022 All-Juice Team in honor of Terez Paylor

Three things Terez Paylor loved in the football world: the NFL draft, impact defensive players and the Michigan Wolverines. All of which would have put the eighth annual All-Juice Team squarely into his wheelhouse. Not only could the University of Michigan see defensive end Aidan Hutchinson become the school’s second No. 1 overall pick of the Super Bowl era (joining Jake Long in 2008), but the draft’s top four picks could all be defenders. The 2022 selection process is also expected to be… Source link

It wasn’t fun to watch the Los Angeles Lakers this season. Despite some talented players, the team never got its act together. The team was mercifully eliminated from the postseason following Tuesday’s loss to the Phoenix Suns. At least one member of the organization was glad to put the 2021-22 NBA season behind him. Lakers announcer Stu Lantz was caught on a hot mic asking the Suns to “put [the Lakers] out of our misery” prior to Tuesday’s game. The audio was likely never meant to go public…. Source link

The NBA ‘team nobody wants to play’ power rankings

Every NBA season features at least one “team nobody wants to play” — a well-coached brash underdog that will make the championship favorites work for that status. God forbid a Team Nobody Wants to Play wins its first-round playoff series, because each successive victory feeds its belief in its own title chances. The Atlanta Hawks became last year’s version. The Miami Heat held that moniker in 2020. This season features more candidates than any other in recent memory, which calls for… Source link
