Fans Flabbergasted By Jason Derulo S Operatic Concert Performance

A video of the live performance was posted to TikTok on Tuesday by Sus (@susannaeallreddd), who wrote: “Soooo in case you didn’t know, Jason Derulo is classically trained in opera. I hope this ends up on your fyp [for you page].” The post has amassed over 2.2 million views and thousands of comments from fans, many of whom were shocked to learn the pop performer could sing operatically. However, Derulo hasn’t shied away from showing off this not-so-hidden vocal talent of his throughout the years....

Fans Angered As Lebron James Bows To Beijing We All Have Freedom Of Speech But At Times There Are Ramifications

And when Muhammad Ali passed away later that year—June 3, 2016—James said he hoped to be a voice for former black athletes who spoke up for social issues before him. Fast forward to last week, and James had been relatively quiet after Houston Rockets general manager Daryl Morey got both his team and most of the NBA in hot water with China for his tweet that supported a Hong Kong free from Chinese communism....

Fans Joke Kfc S New Plant Based Nuggets Look Like Deep Fried Erasers

The chicken joint unveiled its hotly anticipated meat-free nuggets earlier this month after partnering up with Beyond Meat, but diners have compared their look to “erasers.” The latest menu option, available across the U.S., caused a stir on social media as customers snapped up the guilt-free treat. Announcing the new addition online, KFC said: “The plant-based Beyond Fried Chicken was developed by Beyond Meat exclusively for KFC. It’s packed with delicious flavor and the juicy satisfaction that you’d expect from KFC’s iconic fried chicken but in a plant-based option that’s still finger lickin’ good....

Fantasy Baseball Podcast Chasing Numbers

You better believe players know where they stand at this point in the season, and if they're closing in on a statistical milestone -- 20/20, 40 steals, 20 wins -- then they (and their managers) might get a little silly over the final few weeks trying to reach it. The Fantasy Source crew talks about this phenomenon in our latest Sporting News Fantasy Source Baseball podcast (Download link). Topics include: Can anyone run down Jacoby Ellsbury for the AL stolen base crown?...

Fantasy Baseball Podcast Future Stars Who Could Be Big In 2014

Confused? Don't be. It's all explained in the latest Sporting News Fantasy Source Baseball podcast (Download link).

Fantasy Baseball Sleeper Rangers Profar Falling Too Far In Drafts

Despite being considered one of the top prospects in baseball just one year ago, owners in fantasy mock drafts seem to be shying away from Profar, who comes with a very reasonable 238.7 ADP, according to Mock Draft Central. That's probably because he didn't make an immediate fantasy impact last year with the Rangers in his first extended stay in the majors. As a 20-year-old, Profar hit just .234/.308/.336 with six homers and two steals (caught four times) in 286 at-bats....

Fantasy Basketball Is It Time To Cut Kawhi Leonard Zion Williamson Ben Simmons And Other Absent Stars Amid Nba S Covid 19 Outbreak

As a result, Fantasy Basketball rosters are becoming increasingly difficult to navigate with more players out than there are IR spots on your roster. Before we discuss how to handle those IR spots, let me make one suggestion that your league should consider adding an extra IR spot (or two). Just this week – even though it is 10 weeks into the Fantasy Basketball season – my league just went from two IR spots to four due to the number of players out in COVID-19 protocols, with a plan to re-evaluate the number of IR spots necessary in a few weeks....

The byes make it tougher to trade, as savvy owners are constantly trying to juke the schedule by trading for a player who’s already been on a bye while giving up a player that hasn’t. Savvier owners will refuse to do that, so you’re often at a stalemate. If you have a solid record and good depth, don’t be afraid to take on a player who’s yet to be idle....
