I don’t need to go crazy, I just need to do more than what I’m currently doing. Motivation is also a factor as is fitting it into my schedule. But it is something I have to get better at

NBA mock draft 2026: Lottery sim delivers 2 shocking winners, punishes tankers Here’s our latest 2026 NBA mock draft, with surprising results after we simmed the lottery order.

New NBA mock draft. I simulated the lottery, and 2 teams moved way up, while the worst tankers got punished.

I stopped going off my own board for this one and tried to guess who teams would actually pick. The lottery is three months away.

I cannot recommend the Process more than enough. @jeffwzimmerman.bsky.social

I’m new to fantasy baseball since 2020, but I went from 10, 12, and 12th place in 2024 to 8, 6, and 4th this past year in my 3 fantrax leagues. This was all due to changes I made year over year after reading the Process

Edward Cabrera throws really hard

and because we're all very bored, fans of other teams are furious their team didn't get him.

Nine MLB teams’ TV money in jeopardy as FanDuel networks continue to struggle The troubled broadcaster is trying to renegotiate its payments to nine MLB teams, and recently missed a payment to the St. Louis Cardinals.

Last winter Rob Manfred had luxury-tax money β€” up to $15m per team β€” to give clubs that took haircuts on their TV deals: a β€œmedia disruption distribution.” But it was a 1-year deal that MLB did not bring back this winter.

The problems, though? They’re back.
