Nobody wants to read Fantasy Football stuff on the NFL thread, so I figured I'd make a thread for folks to ask/discuss/seek help for their teams. My team turned out ok after my draft. Went 10th in a 12 team league and got Pollard/Mahomes. Reached on Waller round 3 (maybe?), then got Jonathan...

No prize for this one. Corona 2nd inning.

Was looking through some stats to see if there were any trends that I had missed, and realized that Wake is very, very bad at transition offense and defense, but above average to average at both offense and defense in the half-court sets. When you combine this knowledge (on a 20 game sample...

In looking up some stuff on Army I came across the fact that Brown has been phenomenal in on-ball defense this year (one of the best in the nation). It will be interesting to see if this is just a small sample size (he is defending the three-point line very, very well), or if he is in fact a...

Francis Alonso hit 7/10 threes against us. I went through and watched all of them to see what happened. https://www.bloggersodear.com/2017/11/28/16709642/film-breakdown-guarding-francis-alonso-of-unc-greensboro-wake-forest-chaundee-brown-wes-miller TL;DR: 1. Our pick-and-roll defense is...

Clawson says these guys won't play this weekend, but injuries are not season-ending. Not great. Injuries continue to pile up for Wake. A lot of changes to the depth-chart as well...

This started over on the 2k18 recruiting thread, but deserves a separate one. My thoughts on minutes: Initial thoughts: PG- Crawford (25), Childress (15) SG- Woods (25), Wilbekin (10), Crawford (5) SF- Brown (25), Washington (10), Woods (5) PF- Thompson (20), Eggleston (15), Mitchell (5) C-...

They were treated and released with non life-threatening injuries. Sam Japhet-Mathias, Tyra Whitehead (women's basketball), and Tyler Williams (football) were injured. https://www.bloggersodear.com/2017/7/27/16051244/three-wake-forest-student-athletes-injured-in-off-campus-party WXII Story

Over complaints that he groped multiple women at a US spy agency. No charges were brought after a year of investigations...

A comprehensive look and analysis of what could be argued is the best year in Wake Forest sports history. https://www.bloggersodear.com/2017/6/16/15814286/wake-forest-sports-why-2016-2017-was-the-best-in-school-history

OOOOOOOPPPPPSSSSSSSS http://www.cnn.com/2017/05/31/politics/fbi-comey-testimony/index.html?adkey=bn I'll go ahead and get out ahead of the arguments: @plama - "fake news" @sailor - "sources aren't credible" @jhmd - "oh, now Comey is worth talking to, what about the Clinton's, and two parent...

There's been discussion recently about who will develop and play the most minutes at the 5 out of Sarr, SJM, and Moore. Who ya got?

Welcome to Captains Choice Mafia. Deadlines go by the timestamp. :00 is still live, :01 is not. Majos will be instant even if I'm not around. Stop talking Only the captain and his teammate got a PM. If you didn't receive one then you are a vanilla Civ. There are 7 vanilla civs and 2 mafia...

Has been criminally underrated all year because of how good John Collins is, but has especially been a beast the last two games. 46 points on 16 shots, 11 assists, 2 turnovers, 5 rebounds, and 24/26 shooting from the foul line. He has come up big when we needed him to the most. Also, he is 94...

This is directed at Wrangor or anybody else in more basketball knowledge than I have relative to actual gameplan/strategy, but what type of defense were we running for the final 15 minutes of the game? It was a 3-2 matchup zone of some sort (almost like a 4-1 at times with our guys on the...

A friend of mine has been assigned to an audit team, and for cost austerity reasons the plan is to "butty up" and assign you a roommate; most likely some dude who you don't know. Like most of us who haven't sharted a room with somebody since college (and even then it was somebody you knew well...

http://www.cnn.com/2017/02/27/us/georgia-couple-confederate-flags-threats/index.html Thought this was a pretty interesting case. I'm not sure exactly that those years in prison will help anything here. I do believe that they should have been punished, but I don't know how I feel about the...

Has been really, really good the past two weeks. 31 assists to 8 turnovers. Still taking a lot of shots, but more are in the flow of the offense. He didn't try to do too much yesterday and get caught up in the 1v1 battle with Smith, Jr. Also, Smith, Jr. got by him a few times, but overall I...
