Rise & Grind: February 7th, 2014
Welcome to the RotoGrinders cup o’morning joe. Start your day off right here with yesterday’s happenings and take a peek at the the upcoming DFS day.
Grab your first cup of coffee and catch up on the latest news!
The R&G is really hungover. But we found the BBC Olympics “Memories” and it’s literally a blooper real of people wiping out at the Olympics. Holy crap it’s the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. Literally skiiers almost dying, and the British commentators just dead panning on how they suck. Find the BBC.
In Case You Missed It
- DraftStreet Hockey Championship – Yannick8 used both of his entries to their best of their potential by taking 1st and 2nd in the DSHC for $19,000. His first place entry rode an Ottawa stack and two goals from Milan Michalek. GrindersLive host BillsFan777 took 4th place.
- Damian Lillard, Real American – Damian Lillard is putting the excitement back in All-Star weekend, by competing in three different events. There will be three All-Stars in the Slam Dunk competition for the first time since 1988 when Clyde, ‘nique and MJ went at it. Lillard is also competing in the Rising Stars Challenge and the 3 Point Contest. He’s good at basketballs.
Today’s Events
- NBA Tonight – The most exciting match-up of the evening is Portland visiting Indiana. But the Fantasy Goodness Match-up of the Night™ pits two of the worst teams in the league, as the Lakers visit Philadelphia. I predict zero defense will be around in this game.
- NBA GPPs Tonight – There’s still space available in the $27 Q for the DraftKings Showcase tonight. The $270 Q has already filled. Tonight is also the $55 Q to the DraftStreet Basketball Championship and DS is also running an $11, $25,000 GPP this evening as well. The Friday Slam over on FanDuel is set for $80k this evening, with $9k going to 1st place.
