Stan joined DraftKings in December of 2020. It was a glorious time, except for that whole COVID thing, when we got Madden streams and boisterous bat flips from the KBO. I was brought on board to bring some West Coast flavor. I especially love hoops, and most of my content is in that arena. When I walk along the beach, strumming my guitar, the beat that I hear is not one of crashing waves. No, it is the beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood with highs provided by the squeaks of the sneakers. Ball is life.
UPDATE 9:49 PM ET: Mason did join the 49ers sideline with around 30 seconds left in the halftime and was in the game for the first play of the second half, rushing nine yards. Mason did go back to the sideline on the next play, though, and was seen rotating his shoulder. Guerendo was in […]

Last season, the New York Jets had the most anemic offense, as they scored a league-low 22 touchdowns. But Aaron Rodgers was lost for the season in the first game and New York had to trot out the three-headed monster of Zach Wilson, Trevor Siemian and Tim Boyle at quarterback. Yuck. But there was tremendous […]

Gardner Minshew and Aidan O’Connell battled in the offseason for the number one job with Minshew eventually getting the nod, but it could have easily been O’Connell, as he performed and carried himself well. In five starts to open the season, Minshew wasn’t bad, completing 70.7% of his passes for 1,014 yards, four touchdowns and […]

Prior to the start of the season, not much was expected from the Mets. Their win total was 81.5 and the odds of winning the NL Pennant were +2800. For the World Series? +5500. That got Lloyd Christmas to smile from ear to ear. That smile was turned upside down, though, as New York started […]

The 49ers have been the class of the NFC West in recent years, finishing atop the division in the last two seasons. Entering 2024, DK Sportsbook had them as the favorite once again at -195. But On Any Given Sunday. After dismantling the Jets on opening night, they lost to Minnesota, which isn’t so bad […]

Week 6. We have our first casualty from internal politics as Robert Saleh got 86’d. But the Jets are not on the main slate so therefore not in the mix. I just wanted to talk about it for giggles and kicks. Maybe induce a smile and get some extra clicks, but you came here for […]

Jauan Jennings got us all excited when he caught 11-of-12 targets for 175 yard and three touchdowns in Week 3. He’s not a burner, as the 40 time is only 4.72, but at 6-foot-3 and 215 pounds, he can Moss defenders. But the Rams pass defense is one of the worst in the league, 31st […]

Jayden Daniels has been spectacular to open the season. He’s gone 101-of-131 for 1,135 yards (a ridiculous 77.1%), four touchdowns and two interceptions while rushing 57 times for 300 yards, four touchdowns and 22 first downs. His stellar play has guided the Commanders to a 4-1 record and a place at the top of the […]

NFL Week 5 is almost in the books, pending Monday night’s matchup, but the opening odds for Week 6 are up on DraftKings Sportsbook and it’s time to give a lookey-loo. The bye weeks started in Week 5. There were four teams off then, and there are four teams off in Week 6: Kansas City […]

Jordan Whittington is 6-foot-1, 204 pounds and played his college ball at Texas. He was selected in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL draft by the Los Angeles Rams. He’s an older prospect at 24 years old and runs the 40 in 4.52 seconds while possessing an 86th percentile agility score. He generated buzz […]

Joe Musgrove was once a pillar of the San Diego Padres starting rotation, throwing 181 innings, notching a winning record and posting sub-3.75 FIPs in back-to-back-seasons. Then the injury bug hit in 2023, limiting him to 97 innings due to right shoulder inflammation. The 2024 season got off to rough start, as he allowed five […]
