This is the type of list that could really go on forever, especially if we start including all prospects (thankfully, we already have that list here), so we tried to focus on guys with more upside than they’re being given credit for or your classic, late-round breakout candidates. 2017 RANKINGS:Catcher | First | Second | Third | Shortstop | Outfield | Starter | Closer 2017 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers: Outfield Position eligibility based on Yahoo standard leagues....

You can could expand that even further: Is he ranked in the top 15? –> No. –> He’s a sleeper. And by the way, when we say anyone outside the top 15 is a sleeper, we mean anyone, even guys who aren’t currently on a team. Heck, even you. You’re a fantasy football running back sleeper. That’s how deep this goes. 2017 RANKINGS:Quarterback | Running back | Wide Receiver | Tight End | D/ST | Kicker...

As South United started to gain more possession, BDUFC found themselves back-pedalling towards their own goal. On one of the occasions where Bangalore Dream United FC tried to break, their attack was stopped early on and the ball landed at SUFC captain Magesh’s feet. The midfielder found Aaron’s run with a looping ball over the top and the striker lobbed the ball past the stranded keeper into the empty net....

The 2018 Gymnastics World Cup is currently being held in Melbourne, and there’s everything to play for as the Commonwealth Games are scheduled to be held on the Gold Coast later this year. India in particular, made their presence felt at the World Cup with Ashish Kumar qualifying in sixth place for the Vault Finals, Rakesh Kumar Patra qualifying in seventh place for the Parallel Bars finals and Aruna Budda Reddy qualifying for the Floor Finals taking impressive eighth place....

Busch owns three wins through the first 12 races and is the reigning All-Star Race winner but history is not on his side. Busch owns a 15.5 average finish at the 1.5-mile North Carolina track and has only won the All-Star Race once. Since 1998 only one driver – Jimmie Johnson – has scored multiple victories in the event. Notable winless drivers in the event include Brad Keselowski, Clint Bowyer, and reigning series champion Martin Truex Jr....

‘He’s big, he’s bad, he’s better than his dad, Stuart Broad.’ That’s right. Earlier today, Stuart Broad took his 200th Test wicket for England, and in doing so, he became the 15th player to reach this feat for England and the 2nd youngest, only behind England legend Ian Botham. His 200th victim was Australian captain and centurion Michael Clarke. It was the fifth time Broad has got Clarke out. There are just three players Broad has got out more times and they are Brendon McCullum, Ross Taylor and AB de villiers....

Year 2001 began just after dueling supreme courts, Florida’s and the nation’s, settled one of the strangest presidential elections. The president inaugurated on Jan. 20 would, conventional wisdom said, be unable to lead. On Sept. 20, he spoke to a joint session of Congress, and conventional wisdom changed. Year 2001 ended with perhaps the most remarkable demonstration of military might in American, if not world, history: Less than three months after the most lethal terrorism in human experience, a regime complicit in the attacks was annihilated by U....

Since the very inception of the bid, Beijing 2022 made its priority to design Games that would be athlete-centred, sustainable and economical and would both support the delivery of Olympic Agenda 2020 and broader regional development plans in China, Xinhua reported on Thursday. In this way, Beijing 2022 will take full advantage of both the tremendous Beijing 2008 Olympic and Paralympic Games legacy including existing competition venues, infrastructure and people with deep operational experience and having a clear vision of how the 2022 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games are integrated into China’s existing regional economic development plans....

Calendars have always been somewhat arbitrary in football. It is, after all, an industry that has a timeline all of its own. Yet, here we are, 2012 complete, and another year coming over the horizon. What then, to make of Manchester United’s year that has included European failure in the continent’s secondary competition, domestic loss to neighbors Manchester City, and a Robin van Persie-led rebirth? On the surface, 2012 has brought little success for Sir Alex Ferguson’s men....

But we already have the PlayStation Move, right? Sort of. It’s there but the games are not. And that changes this year with a few “big” unannounced move-centric releases that will be shown off at E3. This PlayStation Move was first unveiled in the summer of 2009 and later released in September of 2010. In the year and a half since, Sony admitted they weren’t going to fund marketing efforts comparable to Microsoft’s Kinect push, and worse, there have been practically no games of note release exclusively for what we can safely say is the most accurate gaming motion controller available....

The F1 fraternity heads to China for Round 3 of the 2013 FIA Formula 1 World Championship. The event will take place at the Shanghai International Circuit which first booked a spot on the F1 Calendar in 2004. The 5.45 km circuit has a good collection of slow, medium and fast corners. Sector 1 contains a blend of slow and medium speed corners including the long 270° turn 1. The second sector has some medium and fast corners while the final sector has a 1 km long back straight between turn 13 and 14....

But the protagonist after starting from pole remained somewhat unperturbed as he emerged victorious cruising to the chequered flag for yet another victory, his third consecutive in South Korea, fourth consecutive after Spa, Monza and Singapore and eight of the season. With SebastianVettel’s win at the Korean GP, he and his team moved closer to their respective titles with Vettel gaining a 77 point lead over his nearest rival Fernando Alonso and Red Bull moving ahead with a comfortable cushion of 118 points over Ferrari....

First Don Cherry wore a bear on his head. Then Jonathan Toews wore a curling stone on his head. Now Cherry is wearing what appears to be a panther on his head. It may be some other big cat. This has been Questionable Novelty Hat Choices By Canadian Hockey Figures.

Your significant other will say yes (at least we think they will). That’s not the hard part. Picking the right weekend this fall is a far more difficult challenge. What are the nine words every diehard college football fan fears the most? “We have to go to a wedding that weekend.” It’s enough to induce cold chills. We’re here to help. If you’re planning a wedding in SEC country this fall, here are the best (and worst) weekends for your big event....

Of course, RB handcuffs are subject to change on a moment’s notice, which is why we’ll be updating this list all season long. It’s important to note that many teams don’t have a true “starter” and “handcuff”, instead going with a committee approach. Also, there are players whose roles might be unchanged even when a starter gets hurt (Duke Johnson Jr., Theo Riddick, Bilal Powell, Darren Sproles, Chris Thompson), but we put them on the list because we simply don’t know enough about their respective team’s depth charts yet....
