‘Tis the season to dust of the trusty old Christmas Jumper and search for the very best Christmas playlist to get yourself right in the mood for some serious Christmas prep!

You may have been subjected to some Christmas tunes enough times to make you go full grinch – steal Christmas and lock it away so no one ever has to listen to that drivel EVER again, but there are many classic and new Christmas songs that are undeniably decent. Some may even be considered bangers!

Top 5 most popular gaming genres in 2017

Hey there.  No matter which is your platform of choice, it is difficult not to feel excited about the future of gaming in 2017. This year certainly has plenty to live up to after a number of blockbuster games hit the shelves in 2016 to provide us with many hours of entertainment, with Overwatch (over 25 million gamers now play this game), Battlefield 1 (predicted to sell around 15 million copies in year one) and Dark Souls 3 (sold over 600,000 copies on Steam in its first week) amongst those which took the industry to another level.

How to Improve Your Luck

It was Donald Trump who said “Everything in life is luck” when talking about success. Based on his new position in the Whitehouse, one might feel obliged to believe him. Was Trump’s presidency the result of him being a lucky person? After all, his current position might not make him feel so ‘lucky’. Right now Trump has the lowest approval rating of any president since the 50s and much of what he promised in the election isn’t turning out quite how he expected. He’s not exactly a well-liked figure in the public eye considering how many memes and games he’s inspired, including the latest Trump’s White House game where you can imagine what Trump’s White House might looks like, with an atomic bomb background included in the options. Is Trump lucky? That’s debatable.

Fanduel DFS NBA Lineup Jan. 6, 2017

Hey there, friends!  Who's ready for another Fanduel NBA Lineup?!  I ended up 1 out of 4 last night.  A few of the last minute changes really screwed with my lineu (SHOULD HAVE LEFT McCOLLUM IN!!!) but that's just the way the ball bounces sometimes.  Let's jump right in!

Fanduel DFS NBA Lineup Jan. 5, 2017

Hey there, friends.  Ready for today's lineup for Fanduel's main slate of games?  Yesterday was a bit of a weird night on Fanduel.  My suggestion lineup scored over 312 fantasy points, yet it ended up well below the winners column.  What gives?  I'll chalk it up to a fluke night since generally, anything over 300 fantasy points usually equals a win.  I ended up with a big fat goose egg last night,  So let's get right in to it!

Fanduel DFS NBA Lineup Jan. 4, 2017

Hey there, friends.  Ready for another lineup for Fanduel's main NBA slate of games tonight?  If you ended up using my lineup from yesterday, you might have ended up a winner.  I did.  I managed to score cash on 3 out of 4 games.  In the end of the night, I ended up winning $1.40.  Yeah... it's peanuts, but a win is a win!  So let's dive right into it!

Fanduel DFS NBA Lineup Jan. 3, 2017

Hey there.  I made a post yesterday about providing you guys with a FanDuel lineup for the NBA Main slate of games and decided to make it a daily column.  Yesterday's post was fairly short and provided little to no information.  Posts going forward will provided at least a bit of insight as to why I chose the players in my lineup.  I'll also provide you with the results I got with the lineup given.  I can't guarantee that the lineups are winners and I won't claim to be a fantasy sports guru.  I simply do it for fun (and to make a few dollars on Fanduel) and I hope that you guys use this information to help build your own lineups.  So without further delay, let's get into it!

Fanduel DFS NBA Lineup Jan. 2, 2017

Hey there friends.  Let's start a daily fantasy basketball lineup thing!  I love fantasy sports and while I don't consider myself to be an expert, I have been able to come out about even in my fantasy sports lineups.  So, I've decided to share my lineups with you guys.  Today, I'll just share the lineup, but going forward, I'll try to give a little insight into why I'm choosing those players.  Hopefully, this series becomes something that you guys will love to see and will come back for more!  Just a little insight on this series:  the lineup will be for the Fanduel website and it will be for the Main NBA slate!  I will also try to have the final lineup go live approx. 30 minutes before the lineup locks, but I'll have my first lineup up early in the day.

Good luck, friends!
