The biggest bye week implications of the 2018 fantasy football season

-

Normally, fantasy owners do not pay too much attention to the bye week period. However, with bye weeks starting in Week 4 and wrapping in Week 12, owners need to pay more attention to when players sit this season. It is smart to be prepared for your best player to miss a critical week.

The last month of the fantasy regular season, 20 teams will have a bye week. Notable players such as Tom Brady, Travis Kelce, DeShaun Watson, Todd Gurley, Jarvis Landry, and Zach Ertz will miss a game in the final four games of the fantasy regular season. Most owners will feel the effect of these late season bye weeks. Best to be prepared for this problem instead of caught off guard.

'Black-ish' Star Anthony Anderson, Celebrities, and Athletes Celebrate African Americans in Golf

Golf is more than a game, it’s a business tool played by executives, an overwhelming majority of Fortune 500 CEOs , and almost every single U.S. president since the 1900s. But while it’s known as the playground for forging business deals and professional relationships, it’s also a notorious good ol’ boys club that has historically excluded African American men and women. However, Wendell Haskins, the founder of Original Tee Inc. , and PGA of America’s former senior director of Diversity & Inclusion, Sports & Entertainment, is changing the game. Haskins, like many African American boys, did not grow up playing golf. In fact, he wasn’t exposed to the sport until he was in his 20s when a friend invited him to a golfing event in New Mexico back in the ’90s. To prepare for the trip, he took lessons, practiced his stroke, and read about the rich history of the game. That’s when he discovered that a black dentist was responsible for creating the modernized wooden golf tee. “The go

Magic Johnson says he built this Lakers team off of last season’s playoffs. Not everyone’s convinced.

In a dull Las Vegas Summer League championship game between the Trail Blazers and Lakers , it was LA team president Magic Johnson who stole the show. Johnson sat down for an interview with Mark Jones and Chauncey Billups on ESPN’s broadcast, and he said he molded this year’s Lakers team after what he saw work in last year’s playoffs. Specifically, Johnson said he drew from the success both Houston and Boston enjoyed, each advancing to and forcing Game 7s in their respective conference finals. He also said he built the Lakers this summer based on what happened in last season’s playoffs. “[We already know] what the bar is, and that’s Golden State,” Johnson said. “For us. We’re just trying to have a great season, get into the playoffs, and then we’ll see what happens. You’re not gonna out-Golden State Golden State. Everybody’s talking about the Lakers don’t have shooting. Oh, we have shooting. But we saw all the teams in the playoffs that had shooting; they got beat. Let’s break it
