The NFL announced Monday that New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady's suspension will be for four games to start the 2015 NFL season for his part in #DeflateGate -- the controversy surrounding the deflated balls in the 2014 AFC Championship Game. It wasn’t as shocking as some of the NFL’s other recent announcements, including both …
A couple weeks ago, I was introduced to the Fanamana Daily Fantasy app by a friend, and I found it very interesting. This friend, Jason Garcia, used to work with me at OPENSports.com back in the late ‘00s, and we hosted a game there called Fantasy Live. Basically, you played in a Fantasy Football tournament …
The 2015 Quarterback rankings look a little different this season than in years past, but your Fantasy Football league won’t suddenly see more quarterbacks taken in the early rounds. For the most part, it’s business as usual, just with some names swapped out for others. Last summer, just before the 2014 NFL season started, I …
I’m watching the 2015 NFL Draft, as any red-blooded American Fantasy Football player should be, and I decided to do up a quick reaction to some of the offensive draft picks. While I’m not ready to lock in these reactions as gold for the rest of the draft season, I look at these reactions as …
Fantasy Baseball owners love to align themselves with winning MLB teams, by acquiring their top players. It only makes sense, really, when you think about it.

There is probably no other day on the schedule that has more people checking in on their Fantasy teams more than on MLB Opening Day. There are always some out-of-nowhere performances by Fantasy free agents, and there are always some early round pitchers that get inexplicably hammered. So while you might be ready to over-manage …

The Tampa Bay Rays were once known for their stellar minor-league system, when players like Carl Crawford, Evan Longoria, B.J. Upton, David Price, James Shields and Desmond Jennings were leading this team into the playoffs more than any other American League team between 2008-13. This organization was shrewd enough to supplement those homegrown prospects with …
As MLB Spring Training gets under way this week, Fantasy Baseball players can begin preparing in earnest for the season to come, and that means tracking some of the players and storylines that have already begun flooding from down south. A few players in particular could see their draft stock rise (or fall) dramatically in …
Before we take a deep look at the 2015 Fantasy Baseball Second Basemen Rankings, I thought it would be smart to look back at what happened to the second base position in 2014. Entering the season, Michael Beller and I had a Fantasy Debate on Sports Illustrated about which second baseman should be drafted first: Robinson Cano or Jason Kipnis? But …
As we begin to take a closer look at the 2015 Fantasy Baseball First Basemen rankings, it’s important to take a look back at the position over the past few years to get an idea of what to expect going forward. We know the first base position is usually full of big, barrel-chested players whose …
