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.
We’ve got a nine-game slate after last night’s two-gamer. I gotta say that I think today is gonna be a good day. Unfortunately, God has still not turned off injuries, so Cam Thomas, Devin Booker and Ben Simmons are out. There are a plethora of players designated as questionable, so go to DK Live in […]

A teeny tiny two-game slate on this Thursday. It’s not tantalizing, but truthfully talking, I’m thankful, as we at least get something to tackle. So let’s get thrilled, tip-toe around the snowflakes and thrive. DraftKings Sportsbook has MIL favored by 3 points on the road in IND with the total at 240.5. ATL is 3.5 […]

Holy moly! It’s Week 10 already. Are your knees weak, palms sweaty? Say woo sah a few times. See? Now your mind, body and soul are steady. I’m here to chop away the shrubbery so you can navigate around all those who may be deadly. My tool of choice is a sharp machete. Hopefully, we […]

We have a massive 12-game slate today, nothing tomorrow, a gargantuan 14-gamer on Wednesday, then a two-game slate on Thursday. I appreciate the NBA allowing us time to recuperate from our benders. Personally, I hate this schedule, and that’s not just because I prefer smaller slates in general. Anyways, that means there are plenty of […]

Only four games on tonight’s slate and three of them have a 7.5-point spread or higher. In addition, DET, NOP, TOR and UTA all played last night, so beware of shenanigans. Devin Booker ($9,500) is the big piece of news. It sounds like he’s close to returning and playing against the 24th-ranked team in terms […]

Every team played last week but we have four teams on bye, the Broncos, Lions, Jaguars and 49ers for Week 9. And the Chiefs/Dolphins game will be played in the land where water flows down the Rhine. That means only one game with a total of over 45 on the main slate. It’s time to […]

A three-game slate on Halloween and the Charlotte Hornets aren’t playing? So no Scary Terry? What a travesty! What is scary is the amount of injuries already percolating throughout the league. Donovan Mitchell ($9,700; hamstring) is questionable today after missing last game, but he participated in practice on Monday so there’s hope, like evading a […]

We have 11 games on today’s slate. This will be the second game for most teams so we still don’t know about teams or players. That probably won’t happen for a few weeks, so matchups, usage, rotations and defensive/offensive efficiency are still relative unknowns. We can assume and glean some things from earlier in the […]

After two games on Tuesday, we got a meaty 12-game slate on Wednesday, only to return to a two-gamer today. Two is better than zero, though, and we got hoops back in our lives!!! I’m with Cube in that I gotta say today is a good day. James Harden is out for Philadelphia while Devin […]

No teams are on bye. That brings a tear to my eye but no dancing to Gangnam Style by Psy because this main slate will be without the Bills, Bucs, Bears, Chargers, Raiders and Lions. Sigh. But we shall get by. At least it’s not July when all we get are blue skies and pop […]

Like the Terminator or Dominic Toretto for the 10th time, NBA DFS is back, baby!!! Can’t wait to hear the bounce of the ball, the squeak of the shoes, the whistles….”Let them play! Let them play!” What I’m not looking forward to, though, is the suspense of watching the clock tick down to zero as […]
