Wisconsin is the greatest state in the union. In the upstate, that's even more obvious. No questions. Congratulations, brother.

Fun opening day of the Playoffs, even though only one game seemed to be competitive. All 8 teams have plenty of talent and can do some things, but it's still hard to imagine anybody besides the Lynx, Aces, or LIberty actually winning it all. Liberty-Mercury was fantastic. Mercury have the...

Also, if the pocket is constantly collapsing and he has no time to throw, could be some decent running stats. Generally, I don't worry too much about matchups with quarterbacks that can run. It's Daniel Jones, so a stinker is always a big possibility. But I see no problem taking the shot.

Rolling with him again this week, even with a terrible matchup. Not expecting much, but he's my only QB.

More importantly, nice win for the Storm to sneak in. Storm are schizophrenic and I don't think they can beat the Lynx. But they've given the Lynx some headaches this year. Storm can beat (or lose to) anybody on any night. Nneka continues to dominate. Skylar, Sykes, and E-Wheezy can take over...

And Unrivaled just announced 2 new teams (Breeze and Hive). They are also expanding rosters, and adding more injury replacement players. Bringing the total number of spots to 54 players. Otherwise known as 1/3rd of the WNBA (before the Toronto and Portand expansions). 1/3rd of the league is...

Amazing how the cut the NBA takes off the top doesn't usually get mentioned when media are dropping WNBA profitablity hot takes. There really is no "WNBA". It's really just a tiny subsidiary of the NBA. It's like their kid's lemonade stand. Which is a pretty odd situation for a league to...

Although losses certainly wouldn't surprise me. The NBA's management of this league is questionable at best.

I don't know of any reliable source for the WNBA's financials. It's not a publicly traded company. The NBA is in the middle of a labor negotiation. In that situation, everybody cries poor. Even better if you can get the media to push that narrative for you. Again, I don't know. Very few do...

Unrivaled's new round of investments have them valued at $340 million Apparently a 10X increase since the Spring of 2024, due to higher than projected revenues. The pressure is on the NBA here with the new CBA negotiations. I have no idea if a lockout is coming, but the NBA is negotiating with...

Playoffs mostly set. Unfortunately for Indiana, they secured a spot. Best thing for Indiana was to miss the Playoffs and add another lottery pick with CC and AB, but it didn't go that way. Down to Seattle and LA for the last spot. Seattle is almost certainly going to get it, and they need...

I didn't watch all of this game, but it was a testament to the power the NFL has over the media. The monetary power of the NFL is the insane number of casual fans. Hardcore fans have thought Russ is trash for at least the last 3 years, and are just counting down the seconds until he inevitably...

And these two teams just know each other so well. Heck, the 2 opposing offensive coordinators are brothers. No surprise that this was an offensive slog.

I did too (over Goff). I think a couple FBGs had him as a top 10-12 play yesterday. Steichen can make a flawed real QB that can run into a solid fantasy producer. The Dolphins are horrible, so we'll see going forward, but nothing wrong with him as a starter in the right spot.

Started him over Goff. Still old school and can't spend on a QB even though I know the evidence says otherwise. But I've seen Steichen make poor passers that can run into fantasy stars. Some young kids don't remember Jalen's rookie year.
