CSA has removed former South Africa batsman HD Ackerman as the host of its upcoming annual awards ceremony in a bid to to avoid further potential negative comments around his announcement that he was emigrating to Australia in September. Ackerman is the fourth South African involved in the countrys cricket structures to move to Australia or New Zealand in the last two months.In view of certain negative comments on social media following HDs Facebook post that he was leaving South Africa for Australia, we have decided to avoid any further potential negative comments around HD hosting the live CSA Awards, Altaaf Kazi, CSA spokesperson, told Sport24. We decided to replace him and have no further comments to make in this regard.CSA has not revealed who it has appointed as Ackermans replacement.Ackerman had announced his decision to emigrate through a post on Facebook: It is with a heavy heart that I have to let all my friends know that Kerryn Ackerman, James, Tannah and I will be moving to Perth, Australia in September. It has caused many sleepless nights and even more tears but it is a decision that we have reached as a family and feel it is the best one we can make for our little ones at this time.South Africa has so much potential, however in my entire life I dont think I have ever seen anything more common than something or someone fail to reach their potential. I fear this may be the case with my beautiful country. I truly hope that the decision we are making is the right one for us and I truly hope that South Africa does go on to reach its true potential and that crime decreases, corruption slows (as all countries have this problem) and an equal opportunity is there for all.His employer, South African broadcaster SuperSport, confirmed Ackermans departure to take up a role as director of coaching aat Guildford Grammar School in Perth. Mitch Moreland Red Sox Jersey. . The broadcaster said Ackerman had left open the possibility of freelancing.On Thursday, Ackerman revealed on Facebook that he had been removed from hosting the awards, which he has been part of for several years. Wow, just been pulled off hosting the Cricket South Africa awards on the 26th because a few people on social media feel my move to Australia is because Im racist. Forget the fact my wifes sister had just moved to Brisbane and that my wifes parents have just moved to Perth, or that I got a job offer in Perth that included a school bursary for my son, those reasons are not good enough. Wow, wow, wow.Social media reaction to Ackermans move was largely encouraging, particularly from former players. Former South Africa fast bowler Brett Schultz said on Twitter: And SA loses another incredible talent, as a player in his day and behind the microphone in the modern game.The only post, at the time of writing this article, with a racial undertone came from one user who accused Ackerman of being anti-transformation. Ackerman responded by telling the user, Thats where you are soooo wrong.Ackerman played 220 first-class and 230 List A games in a 16-year career that included stints at two provincial and four franchise sides. After retiring, he turned to commentary and coaching. He was involved with South Africa A and recently accompanied some South African players on a spin camp to India.While Ackerman is relocating to Perth, three other South African cricket administrators - Dolphins chief executive Pete de Wet, national team logistics manager Riaan Muller, and Titans coach Rob Walter - have all accepted jobs in New Zealand.

COLUMBIA, S.

Wilson hit seven of her eight shots while Coates, who notched her second double-double of the season by halftime, hit six of seven shots.The Gamecocks (3-0) used some strong defense to open up the lead, using a 15-0 run to start the game and a 13-0 charge coming into the third quarter. Wilson had four of the teams five blocks with Coates swatting the other.The Gamecocks outrebounded Maine 42-27. Ashley Young Jersey . Bradwell was scheduled to become a free agent Tuesday. Born and raised in Toronto, Bradwell is entering his sixth CFL season, with all six played for his hometown Argonauts. Luke Shaw Jersey . LOUIS -- Roman Polak was celebrating even before Alexander Steen scored the winning goal in Saturdays 4-2 win over the Carolina Hurricanes. http://www.manunitedfcpro.com/Kids-Phil-Jones-Jersey/ .Y. - Nelson Mandela will be honoured by the New York Yankees with a plaque in Monument Park. Before the season, UCLA had the young, hot-shot quarterback that had the college football world -- and NFL scouts -- buzzing.Now, USC does.Redshirt freshman Sam Darnold is at the forefront of a Trojans resurgence that reached a peak with Saturdays 26-13 victory at previously undefeated Washington, which was No. 4 in the country. Darnold completed 22 of 33 passes for 287 yards -- the most allowed by the Huskies this season -- and two touchdowns.Darnold gets a different kind of stage this Saturday night.USC (7-3, 6-2 Pac-12) has its first six-game winning streak since 2008 as it heads into a game against struggling crosstown rival UCLA (4-6, 2-5) at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif. The 10:30 p.m. ET kickoff makes it just the 11th night game in the history of the series.The Bruins are without sophomore quarterback Josh Rosen, the former No. 1 quarterback recruit who has missed four games because of a shoulder injury and wont return this season. Darnold has replaced him as the L.A. star.USC coach Clay Helton inserted Darnold as the starter, replacing Max Browne, for the fourth game of the season. The Trojans lost that day, 31-27 at Utah when the defense allowed a touchdown in the final minute, but it has been all victories since then, riding the spark that Darnold provided.He is the reigning Pac-12 Offensive Player of the Week for his performance against the Huskies, who have one of the top defensive backfields in the country. Darnold is eighth nationally in passer rating with a rating of 165.8.He has just unbelievable game maturity, Helton said.The Bruins, who are still pushing for a bowl, did end a four-game skid by beating visiting Oregon State last weekend 38-24.Its good to get a win, said Bruins coach Jim Mora. They have been hard to come by this year. These guys have stayed together and have kept a great attitude. So, they got rewarded for it. That was great.Mora said he has given away only two game balls in his nearly five seasons at UCLA. The second went to quarterback Mike Fafaul on Saturday.Fafaul, starting his fourth game in place of Rosen, completed 25 of 47 passes for 281 yards. Mora praised the fifth-year senior for sticking it out and not transferring as a graduate student.He played behind Brett (Hundley), and then Josh got the job, and he has hungg in there, Mora said. Antonio Valencia Jersey. Hes everything that you want in a quarterback in terms of studying the game and it being serious to him. Its just great.Fafauls challenge this week against USC will be much more difficult than it was against Oregon State. The Trojans held Washington quarterback Jake Browning to 17-of-36 passing with a pair of interceptions by cornerback Adoree Jackson.Fafaul has thrown 10 interceptions in 198 attempts, and if the Trojans could fluster Browning, what will they do to Fafaul?Darnold has had the advantage of a supporting run game -- Ronald Jones II has 487 yards on the ground in the past three games -- an All-American talent at wide receiver in junior JuJu Smith-Schuster and a veteran offensive line that has begun to play to its potential.Fafaul has had none of that. UCLAs young line has struggled, there is no game-breaker on the outside and the Bruins are second-to-last nationally in rushing at 87.2 yards per game. UCLA gave carries to five scholarship running backs last week and will try to find hot feet this week from among Bolu Olorunfunmi, Soso Jamabo, Jalen Starks, Nate Starks and Brandon Stephens.It wont be easy. USC held Washington to 17 rushing yards.Big men win the game, Helton said. On both sides of the ball, our big men are really excelling these last six weeks.UCLAs hopes rest with a solid defense that has allowed only one opponent (Utah) to score more than 27 points in regulation. Defensive end Takkarist McKinley leads the nation with 2.0 tackles per loss per game.The rivalry game wraps up the conference season for USC, which finishes at home against Notre Dame. The Trojans are a half-game behind Colorado and hold a head-to-head tiebreaker. The Buffaloes, 6-1 in the league, finish with two games against ranked teams -- Washington State and Utah.USC needs to win Saturday and have Colorado lose to have a chance to win the Pac-12 South. Utah, which is 5-2 in the Pac-12 with games left against Oregon and Colorado, holds the tiebreaker over USC.The Trojans have won 13 of the past 17 games against UCLA, although two of the victories were vacated due to NCAA sanctions. USC won 40-21 last season.

St Kilda have their own motivation to prevent North Melbourne veteran Brent Harvey celebrating his record-breaking game with a victory at Etihad Stadium. http://www.bengalsrookiestore.com/Bengals-Alex-Erickson-Jersey/ .The ninth-placed Saints seven consecutive wins at the venue this season leaves them poised to grab a finals place if a top eight occupant like the Kangaroos slip up in the next month.Theres no doubt this game, if we can part the milestone significance, theres a bit more in it for both teams, Saints coach Alan Richardson said.Its an opportunity for them to cement a position and for us to stay alive in that space. That has really been our focus.Richardson is historically linked to Harveys AFL record 427th game on Saturday night. He played the last of his 114 games with Collingwood when the teenage Roo debuted in round 22, 1996.He has been incredibly resilient, hes a very driven footballer that has clearly got the best out of himself and continues to play really strong footy, Richardson said.Our plan is to try to spoil the party in many ways, but at the same time respect how fantastic he has been for the game and for the North Melbourne footy club.Richardson said it was critical his Saints again deliver the fierce pressure that unhinged the Western Bulldogs last round, particularly to deny supply to Norths tall targets Drew Petrie, Ben Brown and the returning Jarrad Waite.Were really pleased the way the backs have been going. he said.The Kangaroos do pose a threat with three big fellows (up forward) and Jarrad back in the team and Drew back in some reasonable form last week.We spoke at the meetings that were going to be undersized if we dont get pressure on the ball.Thats something that has been pleasing, our ability to put pressure on the opposition and were going to need it again.Its the most exciting opportunity weve had. If we get a positive result, the noise continues. http://www.bengalsrookiestore.com/Bengals-Brandon-Lafell-Jersey/ . -- PGA TOUR Canada member Steve Saunders took a three-stroke lead Saturday in the Web. http://www.bengalsrookiestore.com/Customized/ .

Detroit and Boston are deadlocked, 1-1, and Tigers manager Jim Leyland could be forgiven if he was caught rationalizing instead of dissecting how his club could blow a 5-1 lead late in Game 2. BOSTON -- Devon Begleys 3-pointer gave Northeastern the lead with two minutes left and his two free throws with 25 seconds left iced the Huskies 73-70 come-from-behind win over Kent State in their opener at Matthews Arena Sunday.Kent State led 42-25 at intermission, but the Huskies rallied and cut the deficit to three points with 12 minutes left in the game. Northeastern never took the lead until Begleys trey.Begley hit 3 of 5 from beyond the arc off the bench for Northeastern (4-2) and led the scoring effort with 18 points. http://www.bengalsrookiestore.com/Bengals-Darqueze-Dennard-Jersey/. T.J. Williams finished with 17 points and dished out five assists.Jimmy Hall was 11 of 14 from the field and finished with 25 points to lead Kent State (4-3) in its first-ever game at Northeastern.

November is out, December is in, and -- if we may paraphrase some of historys greatest philosophers -- its time to find out what happens when college basketball stops being polite and starts getting real. Jerseys NFL China .This may be overstating the case somewhat. November was pretty great, after all, from the Armed Forces Classic openers on Nov. 11 to the wave of fascinating ACC/Big Ten Challenge games in the months final two days. Still, the first Saturday of December feels like the first real college hoops Saturday of the season, an eight-hour afternoon comprising four consecutive, overlapping top-25 tests.No. 11 UCLA at No. 1 Kentucky, Saturday, 12:30 p.m. ET, CBSNowhere does this theme feel more fitting than Lexington, Kentucky, where UCLA, led by point guard Lonzo Ball, will face a downright terrifying No. 1-ranked Kentucky team.Balls pre-Westwood hype felt almost impossibly high entering the season (at least until some ugly shooting in the Bruins August exhibition trip tempered expectations somewhat); the 6-foot-6 guard, ranked fourth in the well-appointed 2016 class, was charged with with nothing less than rescuing UCLA basketball from a chronic case of bad vibes. (Seventeen losses, the Fire Alford-banner flying above Pauley Pavilion, a coach inclined to return a chunk of his contract as a gesture of apology -- these are not exactly signs of a thriving programmatic culture). And you know what? Thus far, he basically has.The Bruins are 8-0 -- five of which, admittedly, came against cupcake opponents at Pauley Pavilion, and all eight of which were played within the greater Los Angeles metropolitan area. Still, by this time last season, the Bruins had already fallen to Monmouth (at home) and Wake Forest (on a neutral floor), and werent, even in their best moments (wins against Kentucky and Gonzaga) playing anywhere near the kind of free-wheeling, uptempo offense Ball has made possible. His offensive rating through eight games is 140.2; hes shooting 69.7 percent from 2 and 47.4 percent from 3; hes recording an assist on 38 percent of his available possessions; hes turning it over on less than 17 percent of the same. (After UCLAs hard-fought win against Texas A&M on Sunday, ESPNs Jay Bilas said Ball was Jason Kidd at the same age, which sounded unreasonable ... right up until the point that we looked at these numbers.In the meantime, Ball has relieved many UCLA fans greatest source of stress, by relieving the constant ballhandling and scoring burdens Bryce Alford faced a season ago. Alford is now free to work off the ball, play off screens, locate space and know -- because he is playing alongside a 6-foot-6 future lottery pick who might already be the best passer in college basketball -- that good, open looks will come. Alfords usage is down; his efficiency is way up. Throw in Isaac Hamiltons improvement and the not-inconsiderable skills of freshman forward TJ Leaf, and UCLA is the nations best all-around shooting team to date -- in the top five in both 2-point and 3-point field goal percentage.Still: With all due respect to (possibly slightly underrated) Texas A&M and even (less possibly slightly underrated) Nebraska, its safe to say Ball and his Bruins havent seen anything like Kentucky yet.True story: On Monday night, Kentucky beat Arizona State 115-69. On a neutral floor. With 83 possessions. In 40 minutes.?DeAaron Fox, whose game looks like a left-handed John Walls, posted the second triple-double in UK basketball history in the win. Malik Monk did this. No, seriously: Kentucky looks terrifying.And still: Depending on where you come down on Michigan State -- talented, young, banged up, well see seems like the appropriate landing place here -- it may be just as safe to say that Kentucky has yet to see a team as good as UCLA. It certainly hasnt seen one playing this well, or one led by a guard like Ball.Whether the Bruins have a sincere chance of winning at Rupp Arena is almost beside the point; in Lexington on Saturday the sheer fact of a win or a loss will matter far less than the kind of performance that preceded it. Just how good are these guys anyway?No. 7 Xavier at No. 9 Baylor, Saturday, 3:30 p.m. ET, ESPN2 and ESPN AppAll things considered, few teams in the country offer as much quantitative certainty as Baylor. Thats pretty crazy, considering the lukewarm, fringe top-25-at-best expectations for Scott Drews team heading into the season. Yet here we are, nearly a month into the season, and while most of the nations best teams have grabbed an impressive win or two, Baylor is 7-0 with victories against Oregon, VCU, Michigan State and Louisville. It would take a jarring nosedive to feel suddenly uncomfortable with the notion of Baylor as a top-10 team, in other words. Xavier is the wild card here: Wins against Clemson and Northern Iowa (twice in the same week, no less) dont quite have the same kind of perception-boosting impact that a road win against the surprise of the season to date would bring. Well see.No. 8 Gonzaga vs. No. 16?Arizona, Saturday, 5:30 p.m. ET, ESPN and ESPN AppNo matter how deep into the season we get, until mysteriously absent sophomore guard Allonzo Trier either returns to the lineup or is officially ruled ineligible, an aura of untapped promise will hover just above the Arizona Wildcats. Not that there isnt plenty to like already -- specifically Finnish freshman Lauri Markkanen, a 7-foot forward shooting 59.5 percent from 2, 89.2 percent from the free throw line and 47 percent from 3 thus far (and leading his team in 3-point attempts). Classmate Kobi Simmons has been nearly as impressive filling in for Trier on the wing. With the possible exception of perimeter defense, the Wildcats dont do anything at an even remotely below-average level. And yet, heading into a neutral-floor game (at Staples Center) against a new-look, transfer-led Gonzaga team -- where Nigel Williams-Goss, Johnathan Williams?and Jordan Mathews have all taken immediate lead roles -- it is hard not to wonder just how good Arizona might be with their star sophomore along for the ride.No. 25 West Virginia at No. 6 Virginia, Saturday, 2 p.m. ET, ESPNU and ESPN AppVirginia coach Tony Bennett is not the screaming type, but after point guard London Perrantes put up four points and three turnovers in the first half Wednesday against Ohio State -- a game the Cavaliers trailed 36-24 at halftime in their own typically impenetrable building -- Bennett got after his senior guard in earnest. After his 15-point second half keyed the Cavs comeback, Perrantes said the discussion was the most I got ripped by him since Ive been here and it sparked us all. Bennett will (more calmly) be walking his team through its collective offensive struggles against the Buckeyes in advance of Saturdays game against West Virginia, which, surprise surprise, is pressing its opponents into the nations highest turnover and steals rates through its first six games. Virginia turns the ball over rarely on its best nights, but even a brief lapse into carelessness -- and the necessity of Perrantes performance -- can be followed rather quickly by vulnerability.

Hazard cut in from the left and scored with a swerving right-footed shot for ninth goal of the season, which proved to be enough for the victory despite Chelseas forwards again lacking a cutting edge up front. Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale .Y. - Detroit goaltender Jonas Gustavsson has earned NHL first star of the week honours after winning in his first three appearances of the season. http://www.cheapjerseyswholesaleauthentic.com/ . -- Yogi Ferrell orchestrates pretty much everything in Indianas offence. (STATS) -- The only unbeaten FCS team remaining made its biggest statement of the season in its final regular season game Saturday.Sam Houston State has some more statements -- and wins -- planned for the postseason, entering it Sunday as the top-ranked team in the STATS FCS Top 25.Shortly before the NCAA announced its FCS playoff field, the Bearkats (11-0) gained 111 of the 151 first-place votes and 3,676 points to solidify the top ranking in the national media poll for the sixth straight week. It came on the heels of a 59-23 trouncing of then-No. 11 Central Arkansas in what basically was the Southland Conference championship game.You cant get any better than what we just did, third-year coach K.C. Keeler said, Eleven-0, conference champions, pretty much dominated almost every single game we played.It was a great accomplishment. Its two seasons. And this season that we just had here -- this regular season -- its the single greatest season Ive ever been around.All but one of the teams in the top 10 earned at least a share of their conference title, and the exception -- Villanova -- features the sentimental story line of a retiring head coach. Jacksonville State (10-1) was No. 2 in the final regular season poll after it finished off an unbeaten season in the Ohio Valley Conference for the third straight year.Eastern Washington (10-1) and North Dakota State (10-1) remained No. 3 and 4, respectively, after both earned a share of their conference title. EWU made it four Big Sky Conference titles in five seasons and NDSU made it six straight in the Missouri Valley Football Conference, moving into the playoffs with the goal of extending its record five straight FCS national titles.CAA Football James Madison (10-1) moved up one spot to No. 5, flip-flopping with The Citadel (10-1), which lost for the firrst time against North Carolina from the FBS level.

South Dakota State (8-3), an MVFC co-champ, was No. 7 and North Dakota (9-2), a Big Sky co-champ, No. 8.Villanova (8-3) carried a No. 9 ranking after it sent coach Andy Talley into the playoffs in his 32nd and final season on the Wildcats sideline. Charleston Southern (7-3), which earned a share of its second straight Big South Conference crown, was No. 10.Chattanooga (8-3) moved up one spot to No. 11 after playing to a 31-3 loss at Alabama that wouldnt be registered by many FBS teams. Then it was Richmond (8-3); Youngstown State (8-3); Central Arkansas (9-2); Coastal Carolina (9-2); Grambling State (8-1); North Carolina A&T (9-2); Lehigh (9-2), the Patriot League champ; Wofford (8-3); and North Carolina Central (9-2), the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference champion.Rounding out the Top 25 were No. 21 Cal Poly (7-4), New Hampshire (7-4), Samford (7-4), and two teams appearing for the first time this season, Pioneer Football League champ San Diego (9-1) and Weber State (7-4).Eleven FCS conferences had at least one ranked team. The Big Sky, CAA and SoCon led with four each, the Missouri Valley had three, the MEAC and Southland two each, and the Big South, Ohio Valley, Patriot, Pioneer and SWAC had one each. Coastal Carolina is an FCS independent.A national panel of sports information and media relations directors, broadcasters, writers and other dignitaries select the STATS FCS Top 25.

Daily fantasy sports operator DraftKings paid out millions of dollars this past weekend to cover shortfalls from unfilled NFL contests that offered large guaranteed prize pools, sources told ESPN. Nike NFL Jerseys China .While competitors FanDuel and Yahoo also fell short of having enough players to cover some guaranteed prize pool payouts, DraftKings saw the largest gap, industry sources and high-volume players said. The Boston-based firm had an estimated total of $2 million to $4 million in overlay -- the amount of the guaranteed prize pool not covered by entry fees -- making it one of the largest weekly-game shortfalls for a daily fantasy operator, the sources said.A DraftKings spokesperson disputed the $4 million estimate, calling it grossly exaggerated, but declined to provide the exact amount of the total overlay. The spokesperson also said the unfilled contests were planned as such, and the cost was viewed as a marketing expense in line with weekly overlays that occurred in prior seasons.DraftKings biggest NFL contest last weekend, the Millionaire Maker, offered a $5 million guaranteed prize pool, with a $3 entry fee. More than 1.4 million entries, totaling approximately $4.3 million, competed for the contests million-dollar grand prize. That left approximately $700,000 that DraftKings had to pay out to contest winners. Several other DraftKings contests also failed to attract enough entries to reach guaranteed prize pool amounts. An NFL contest with a $2.5 million guaranteed prize pool and $20 entry fee had approximately $200,000 in overlay. At least 16 of the sites largest contests lacked an adequate number of entries just seconds ahead of Sundays early NFL kickoffs, indicating they also fell short of covering the guaranteed prize totals.?We wanted to have really attractive, high-value guaranteed contests with low entry fees, said Jason Alderman, senior vice president of corporate communications for DraftKings. That was incredibly successful. Thats how we looked at Week 1. We accomplished what we set out to do. Week 2 and subsequent weeks will look differently.Other industry experts and observers see the Week 1 overlay situation differently but note that it would be premature to use the NFLs opening week to judge the health of the DFS industry this football season: Week 2 will be a better gauge, they said.The opening weekend of the NFL is supposed to have the highest traffic and the highest dollar amounts spent of the daily fantasy year, said John Sullivan, 50, a former high-stakes daily fantasy player who quit playing after becoming disenchanted with the lopsided ecosystem. Its clear these companies wildly overestimated the traffic they were going to get.The companies revenue primarily comes from a percentage of all its customers entry fees taken off the top, a rake that ranges from 6 to 15 percent. DraftKings sent an email to some users at 9:27 a.m., Sunday, offering free entries into the Millionaire Maker contest that began at 1 p.m. ET. The free tickets, which are frequently offered to select players in various contests and contributed to Sundays overlay, are often used to reactivate players at the start of football season.It was a tough weekend, a very soft weekend, and it ended up being a costly one, said a longtime industry insider close to DraftKings. The timing couldnt have been worse.The opening to the NFL season comes two weeks after DraftKings announced a $153 million round of funding with Revolution Growth, a venture capital firm co-founded by Ted Leonsis, owner of the Washington Wizards and Washington Capitals. When the deal was announced on Sept. 1, Jason Robins, the CEO of DraftKings, said, I am excited to announce the companys latest funding round was oversubscribed, meaning there was more investment interest than shares of the company available.An SEC filing shows the deal is classified as a $153,767,868 debt transaction. The document, a Form D filing, indicates Revolution was contracted to make the loan on Dec. 23, 2015, nine months before the deal was announced. The document does not state whether the deal will eventually be converted into an equity position for Revolution Growth, but the DraftKings spokesperson told ESPN that will happen. Revolution Growth did not return calls requesting comment.This reads to me like its a $153 million loan, Robert L. McDonald, the Erwin P. Nemmers professor of finance at Northwestern University, said after reviewing the document signed and filed by DraftKings chief financial officer Tim Dent on Sept. 2. Debt can mean a lot of different things, and there is no information here about the interest rate, whether the debt is potentially convertible into equity, and so forth.The DraftKings spokesman declined to disclose the interest rate on the deal.The December commitment from Revolution Growth came a month after New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman issued cease-and-desist orders to DraftKings and FanDuel, claiming the companies were in violation of the states gambling statutes. In June, the New York Legislature passed a bill clarifying the legality of fantasy sports and exempting it from the states gambling laws and creating a 15 percent tax on licensed fantasy sports operators revenues. The bill was signed into law by New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Aug. 3.FanDuel has also raised $55 million in a loan from investors in recent months, which also will be converted into equity, The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.In late August, Outside the Lines reported on the daily fantasy industrys struggles after DraftKings and FanDuel blanketed the airwaves a year ago with a $750 million advertising and marketing blitz. The ad buys seized the attention of Schneiderman and other federal and state authorities across the country. ESPN also reported that both companies owed millions of dollars to lobbyists, lawyers and others and that DraftKings had tried to renegotiate the terms of contracts with vendors and reduce affiliates bonuses.DraftKings valuation was estimated at nearly $2 billion in July 2015, after a $300 million funding round but has since been cut dramatically by at least one investor. In February, Twentieth Century Fox told investors, in a quarterly report, that it had marked down the value of its $160 million stake in DraftKings by about 60 percent. Industry research firm Eilers & Krejick Gaming estimated the Revolution Growth deal was likely based on a valuation of around $1 billion. Several consultants told ESPN they believe its considerably less than that, though, and say they still expect FanDuel and DraftKings will merge, possibly by the end of the NFL season.After a tumultuous year, the daily fantasy industry has eyed the NFL football season as an opportunity to get back on track. DraftKings and FanDuel are marketing the game to new players by shifting focus from the financial part of fantasy sports to its social aspects. DraftKings said participation in its newly enhanced offerings that allow friends to compete against friends in private leagues were up three-fold from last season. The company also pointed to new sponsorships, including with Paramount Pictures, which sponsored DraftKings free games, another new emphasis this season.But on the heels of months of negative headlines, barrages from politicians and attorneys general across the country, impatience from nervous investors and a slew of legal challenges, the Week 1 overlay was worrisome to some.Overlay has its time and place, but with the tremendous growth in DFS these past few years, were coming to the end of its planned usefulness, said Matt Primeaux, CEO of daily fantasy operator StarsDraft, who has faced the overlay issue often and added that he does not believe that most of last weekends overlay was planned. More than anything, this past weekend highlights the uphill battle certain operators face in overcoming last years reputational hits, new high-volume player regulations, and the lingering effects that certain shortsighted policies and player incentives can have on the game.Primeaux noted that its common for guaranteed prize pool contests not to fill, especially in Week 1 of the NFL season, when player retention from the previous season is relatively unknown. Other factors also likely contributed to the unfilled contests, too. Newly instituted regulations in some states restrict the number of entries a player can submit into one contest at 150, and there was a dramatic reduction in television advertising compared to September 2015.Anthony Crupi, television reporter for advertising industry site Ad Age, reviewed fantasy sports advertising on the opening Sunday and noticed not only a significant reduction in commercials but also when spots aired.Last year, Crupi said DraftKings spent $6.58 million on in-game advertising from Thursday through Sunday during Week 1 of the 2015 NFL season. Now, theyre completely out of in-game, Crupi saidWhile fantasy commercials during the games vanished, Crupi found DraftKings and FanDuel did purchase spots on NFL pregame shows and even on syndicated sitcoms like Friends. Overall, though, Crupi said the reduction of daily fantasy advertising was striking.On top of the slashed television marketing campaigns, fantasy sites also are adjusting to new state regulations that didnt exist last year. New York and seven other states have passed fantasy sports laws and regulations this year, imposing age limits, prohibiting contests on college football, and restricting the number of entries in a contest. (Kansas passed a fantasy bill in 2015).Jonathan Bales, a high-level daily fantasy player and author of Fantasy Sports for Smart People, believes the new entry limits required by some states contributed to the overlay: There was lots of action, but using just some simple math with conservative estimates, I dont think its unreasonable to say some of the high-volume guys would have played hundreds of thousands [dollars] more without the limits - and potentially a lot more.

HOUSTON -- Lance McCullers is finally feeling like himself on the mound after spending the first five weeks of the season on the disabled list with a sore shoulder. Cheap NHL Jerseys Wholesale .The way I started the season and the injury and coming back I was really feeling for some stuff, McCullers said. I just feel more confident when Im going out there recently.That confidence was on display Friday night when he struck out 10 in eight-plus solid innings to lead the Houston Astros to a 2-1 victory over the Los Angeles Angels.Will Harris finished the ninth for his 10th save.McCullers was lifted for Harris after walking Kole Calhoun and Mike Trout with no outs in the ninth. Carlos Correa saved a run when he dived to stop a grounder hit by Daniel Nava and tossed the ball to second for a force for the second out.To knock that ball down was a success in its own right; to get an out (from) it saved the game, manager A.J. Hinch said.An RBI single by Andrelton Simmons came next to get the Angels within one, but Harris struck out Ji-Man Choi for his 10th save.The win snaps a season-high six-game winning streak for the Angels and is Houstons ninth straight win over Los Angeles.Jason Castro and George Springer provided the offense for Houston with an RBI each.McCullers (5-4) allowed four hits and his 10 strikeouts tied a season-high in his longest outing of the season.He had a good game, Hinch said. That was as effective with his fastball as hes been this season and obviously he mixed in his curveball as he usually does.He had some traffic on the bases early, but was helped out by a defense that turned double plays to end both the second and fifth innings. He sailed through the next three innings, retiring nine straight and striking out the side in the eighth.Los Angeles starter Matt Shoemaker (5-10) allowed five hits and two runs with five strikeouts in 6 2/3 innings. The performance comes after he threw his first career complete game and struck out a career-high 13 in a 1-0 win over the White Sox in his last start.Preston Tucker, who was called up from Triple-A Fresno on Friday, tripled onto Tals Hill in center field with one out in the fifth inning. Castro followed with his single to shallow right field to score Tucker and make it 1-0.Carlos Gomez bunted for a single with one out in the seventh inning and stole second. He reached third on a groundout by Tucker before Castro drew a walk to chase Shoemaker.Springer greeted Joe Smith with a single to left field to score Gomez and push the lead to 2-0.TRAINERS ROOMAngels: LHP Tyler Skaggs (shoulder tightness) felt good after a rehabilitation start for Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday. Hell throw a bullpen on Saturday before the Angels decide whether hell need another start in the minors or joins the rotation.Astros: C Evan Gattis was out of the lineup with a bruised right hand on Friday. He was injured on Wednesday when he was hit by a pitch. Hinch said he was feeling better on Friday and they didnt expect him to be out long.FANNING TROUTMcCullers fanned Trout three times to become the first pitcher to strike him out three times in a game since Tampa Bays Chris Archer did it on June 2, 2015.He threw me curveballs all night. I just wasnt picking them up, Trout said. It was tough. That last at-bat, I was just trying to get on base.UP NEXTAngels: Jered Weaver (8-7, 5.02) will make his 19th start on Saturday. Weaver has struggled in two starts against Houston this year, going 0-2 with a 7.94 ERA.Astros: Collin McHugh (6-6, 4.25) is scheduled to start for Houston on Saturday. McHugh allowed four hits and fanned 10 in six scoreless innings in an 8-1 win over Seattle in his last start. China Jerseys .

EAST LANSING, Mich. -- Before Ohio State could move on to next weekends showdown with Michigan, the Buckeyes had to deal with a different nemesis.As usual, Michigan State gave Urban Meyers team all it could handle.Mike Weber ran for 111 yards and a touchdown, and No. 2 Ohio State held off Michigan State 17-16 on Saturday after the upset-minded Spartans missed a 2-point conversion with 4:41 remaining.Tough day at the office right there, Meyer said. Well take the win against a team that we know very well and on the road in November. Were 10-1 and getting ready for rivalry week.Ohio State (10-1, 7-1 Big Ten, No. 2 AP) can now focus on Michigan, but only after withstanding a spirited challenge from a Michigan State team that derailed the Buckeyes national title bids in two of the previous three seasons. The Spartans (3-8, 1-7) were down 17-10 when LJ Scott scored on a 1-yard run with 4:41 to play. Michigan State went for the lead, but Tyler OConnors pass on the 2-point conversion attempt was intercepted in the end zone.All week long Id said that, hey, if we get close at the end of the game, were going for 2, and were going to take an aggressive approach and play to win the football game rather than to tie, Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio said. They had us covered up on that particular play, so good job by them.The Spartans got the ball back one more time, at their own 20 with 2:04 remaining. Tyquan Lewis sacked OConnor on the first play, and then Gareon Conley intercepted him on the second.Scott ran for 160 yards and also scored on a 64-yard catch-and-run in the first minute of the game, but the Ohio State defense didnt allow much more after that. J.T. Barrett threw a 24-yard touchdown pass to Curtis Samuel in the first quarter, and the game was tied at 10 at halftime.Webers 4-yard TD run in the third gave the Buckeyes the lead for good.THE TAKEAWAYOhio State: The Buckeyes had to claw their way to this win, but it was still a sweet one against the team that has given them more trouble than any in recent seasons. Michigan State beat Ohio State in the 2013 Big Ten title game and again late in the regular season last year. White NHL Jerseys Cheap. Ohio States stellar pass defense was the difference. OConnor and Damion Terry were a combined 8 of 21 with two interceptions for the Spartans.Michigan State: Dantonios team threw everything it had at Ohio State, executing a successful fake punt in the fourth quarter and later going for 2 when an extra point would have tied it. The Spartans fell just short in the end, unable to establish any consistent offensive threats aside from Scott.The 2-point conversion may be second-guessed in the days to come, but OConnor said the team was on board with it.We dont play for second place, obviously, OConnor said. Everybody was all in on going for it.POLL IMPLICATIONSOhio State: The Buckeyes trailed only top-ranked Alabama coming into this weekend, but the bigger concern for them is their playoff position. Even if Ohio State beats Michigan, it could lose a head-to-head tiebreaker with Penn State for the division title.TOUGH SLEDDINGMichigan State managed only 127 yards passing, over half of it on one play. Ohio State wasnt very productive through the air either. Barrett went 10 of 22 for 86 yards on a windy day that included sporadic snow flurries. The Spartans, who had only seven sacks coming into the game, had three against Ohio State.MILESTONEWeber became the third Ohio State freshman to reach 1,000 yards rushing. Robert Smith (1990) and Maurice Clarett (2002) were the other two.It means a lot, he said. It was a goal that I had set at the beginning of the year. My offensive line executed and made it happen.GREAT SCOTTScott had 236 total yards, including a highlight-reel play in the third quarter when he hurdled an Ohio State defender near the sideline.UP NEXTOhio State: The Buckeyes have lost only once in their last 12 meetings with Michigan. Ohio State will be at home next weekend, where it has not lost to Michigan since 2000.Michigan State: The Spartans play at Penn State next weekend, meaning they could have another chance to play spoiler in the Big Ten title race.

If we can do that at a small school, everyone can do it.Edwin said the plan is to do the same for every home game this year. Hes hoping it will catch on with other schools, and maybe even pro teams.I really do, he said. Everyone watches college sports. If people see it happen, maybe theyll do it. Then maybe the pros will do it also. Its something we can all do together.Eugene Canal, a spokesman for the school, said fans seemed to appreciate the gesture.It went very well. It came off very organic, Canal said. All the players went into the stands and picked people from the crowd. Everyone came down on the court and was arm-to-shoulder. Fans seemed to really appreciate it.It was cool because I dont think anyone in the crowd knew what was going on. None of the fans knew about it beforehand.Kent State coach Rob Senderoff told ESPN before the game that the idea was initially brought to him by Edwin?-- who grew up in the Virgin Islands. The seniors agreed, and then Senderoff ran it by the entire team last week.This was not my idea, Senderoff said. This was something they came up with and brought to me. My first reaction was, What a statement for them to make. For a bunch of 18- to 22-year-olds to come up with this is incredibly mature.They were vocal to me that they didnt want to protest, Senderoff added. They wanted to make it clear that this was a statement, and not a protest -- something that hopefully can help bring about change.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Mark Few wondered how his eighth-ranked Gonzaga Bulldogs would handle a nine-day break for exams, traveling cross country and playing in front of a heavily orange crowd.Tennessee coach Rick Barnes saw enough Sunday to think Few and Gonzaga still might be undefeated when March rolls around.Nigel Williams-Goss scored 20 points, and Gonzaga remained unbeaten by holding off Tennessee 86-76.I thought they did good, especially the way we started the first half, Few said. Usually when you come out of finals like this, youre a little bit concerned about losing rhythm. We had some pretty good rhythm going into finals. Gave them several days off, I was a little bit worried about that. They responded.Gonzaga (11-0) hadnt played since beating Akron on Dec. 10 and looked strong as it scored the first eight points and never trailed. The Bulldogs led 27-6 on a jumper by Zach Collins with 12:06 left, 43-29 at halftime and 64-48 midway through the second half.Tennessee (6-5) went on a 10-3 run and got within 75-71 on a jumper by Robert Hubbs III with 2:26 left.Josh Perkins then hit a jumper as Gonzaga held on for its fourth straight win in the five games between these teams.Obviously we werent perfect, but to come in here and beat a good Tennessee team by double digits, and pretty much control the entire game, I thought we did a good job, Williams-Goss said. But theres room to grow.This was billed as the Battle of Broadway played at Bridgestone Arena, so technically it was a neutral court -- except for all the fans wearing Tennessee orange in the seats. Those fans got very loud as the Vols made their run.Barnes wasnt happy with how the Vols started, and hes tiring of coming close in losses.Its one thing being talked about as being a scrappy team that fights all the time, but at some point in time weve got to want to be more than that, he said. Weve got to want to play 40 minutes, and we havent done that at anny point in time this year.ddddddddddddDetrick Mostella led Tennessee with 17 points and Hubbs had 10.The Vols played without 6-foot-7 freshman John Fulkerson, who missed his first game since dislocating his right elbow in Thursday nights win over Lipscomb. Fulkerson is expected to miss six weeks with the injury.BIG PICTUREGonzaga: The Bulldogs came in as one of six undefeated teams in the Top 25 and did nothing to hurt their stock after their break. ... They improved to 12-8 all-time against Southeastern Conference teams and 2-0 this season. Gonzaga beat Florida last month. ... With 7-1 center Karnowski and 6-9 Johnathan Williams, the Bulldogs outrebounded Tennessee 42-38.Tennessee: This was the Vols fourth game in eight days, a stretch that started a week ago with a 73-71 loss in Chapel Hill to No. 7 North Carolina. ... Barnes now is 0-5 against Gonzaga and 0-4 against Few. ... Freshman Grant Williams scored 30 points in the Vols last game and finished with 11.QUOTABLEI think hes got as good a team as hes ever had, Barnes said of Few. I think hes going to become an even bigger story in college basketball because if you look ahead, hes always done tremendous things with his team in the league and he could be the first time in a long time that youve got a team capable of being undefeated heading into postseason play.FOUL TROUBLEThe officiating crew of Karl Hess, Jamie Luckie and Brent Hampton called 56 fouls combined.

WATKINS GLEN, N. Wholesale NFL Womens Jerseys .Y. -- Chris Bueschers unlikely victory at Pocono Raceway last Sunday put an interesting twist into NASCARs Chase for the Sprint Cup.I know we are throwing a wrench at a lot of peoples brackets for the Chase, Buescher said. Its going to be a pretty wild ride to the end.No question.And another twist could be added this weekend on the Watkins Glen International road course.Nobody really expected Pocono to spit a surprise race winner out of the Pennsylvania mountain fog, but Buescher and Front Row Motorsports took advantage of the circumstances to land a provisional berth in NASCARs 16-driver playoffs.A much more likely venue for a shocking result is Watkins Glen. As one of two road races out of 36 on the Sprint Cup schedule, it truly stands out in advance as a wild-card event.The days of one-off road-course ringers are gone, but Watkins Glen gives full-time Cup drivers with substantial road racing experience the opportunity to win their way into the Chase, even if they are not regular front-runners in a series dominated by ovals.In the not-too-distant past, road racing specialists Robby Gordon, Juan Pablo Montoya and Marcos Ambrose grasped the opportunity to win Cup races at Watkins Glen and would have qualified for the Chase had the current format been in effect. More recently, A.J. Allmendinger triumphed at The Glen in 2014 for JTG Daugherty Racing to become the first driver to earn his way into the 16-driver Chase as a road course wild-card winner.For an ex-road racer like Allmendinger and a small team like JTG Daugherty, the road races tilt the playing ground in their favor, allowing them to overcome the greater resources that NASCARs superteams enjoy.With such a perceived advantage, the danger for Allmendinger is to not let the pressure of being a favorite to win get to him.Watkins Glen and Sonoma -- just road course racing in general -- are places where I think a driver can make more of a difference, but youve still got to have the right package, Allmendinger said.Obviously, for a win youre going to take whatever risk you have to, he added. We just have to go out there and do our jobs. Road races also tend to put a premium on fuel and tire strategy, which also occasionally produces a surprise winner.But more often than not, when fuel strategy comes into play, it works in favor of the more experienced teams and drivers and their ability to read the race and react quickly to unexpected developments.Passing is more difficult than it is on most ovals, so track position is king and an experienced driver who gets out front is generally able to defend his position.Maybe thats why the most successful road racers of NASCARs modern era are Tony Stewart and Jeff Gordon, who lead the series with five and four wins respectively at Watkins Glen.Fuel and tire strategy is expected to be even more critical than usual at Watkins Glen this year. Teams found they could not stretch their fuel long enough to complete this years road race at Sonoma on two stops. More important, Watkins Glen was just fully repaved and Goodyear has brought an extremely conservative tire that has shown very little wear in testing and practice.On Friday, drivers were setting their best times 10 or even 15 laps into a run, with some predicting that the 90-lap race could be completed without a tire change.The biggest thing is pit strategy, said?Kyle Busch, a two-time Watkins Glen winner. Obviously, youve got to pick and choose when youre going to pit and stick to your plan. Whether or not we can still do it on two stops, Im unsure of because Sonoma turned into a three-stop race for us all because the new fuel mileage is a little bit off from where we were last year.The tires are lasting a long time, but its like youre on ice the first few laps, he added. Its a conservative tire, and that way, we are not going to have any tire issues, but it just provides for a lack of grip early in the run.Fellow Toyota driver Martin Truex Jr. says he believes the track will continue to pick up speed as rubber is put down over the weekend.The track is definitely a lot more challenging with the new pavement, Truex said. The tires are really hard -- they dont wear out -- which is typical for repave whether its an oval or a road course. So you dont really change tires or wear tires out, you just keep running on them and they get faster and faster and faster.I think its really challenging just to figure out where your car is, because at some point in the race you have to put tires on. Thats a big challenge, but well see where it goes.The other part of the repave is that many of the curbs lining the 2.45-mile, nine-turn course have been raised or reprofiled. That led to some cars getting slightly airborne during practice as drivers worked out just how much of an advantage they could gain by bouncing over curbs rather than going around them.I dont remember all of my old [braking and turn-in] marks, I just remember there are new ones out there and it took me a little while to kind of get my marks right, Toyota driver Carl Edwards?said. I ran over the curbs wrong a couple times and found some slick spots on the curbs.Its fun to show up at a place and have to catalog everything and remember where all the speed is.Even Allmendinger, the 2014 winner and 2015 pole sitter, struggled to adapt. He had a rough first practice session and overcame a loose oil line in the afternoon to set the fastest time of the day.It looks the same but it drives different, he said. Theres a lot of new things around this place.

Hes put on some kilos, Bolton said.The added muscle will undoubtedly come in handy.The Collingwood defence notoriously gave Melbournes No.1 draft pick Jack Watts a torrid time when he made his AFL debut in the 2009 Queens Birthday match.There are certain to be some immediate physical tests for Silvagni.If the Blues win, it will be only the second time in the last eight years that they have beaten the Magpies twice in a season.
