A voyage of discovery awaits the drivers as F1 heads to Barcelona
Formula 1 continues its European swing this weekend with the 2023 Spanish Grand Prix. The circuit in Barcelona is a familiar one for drivers and teams, as it was the site of pre-season testing before the 2022 campaign, and a number of teams such as Alfa Romeo underwent pre-season shakedown sessions at the track ahead of this season.
However, this year’s Spanish Grand Prix will look a little different.
We preview the 2023 season, including the September games we’re most excited to watch and coaches who need to get off to a hot start.
We are now exactly 100 days away from the start of the 2023 NFL season, which means it’s a perfect time to get ready for football by checking out Sports Illustrated senior writer Conor Orr’s 100 predictions for what could happen both on and off the field this year.
One of those predictions is a pretty bold one—Mac Jones and the Patriots winning the AFC East.
The division, with the addition of Aaron Rodgers, should have plenty of juicy storylines and there’s tons of talent across the four different rosters, including a Buffalo team that won the AFC East in 2022.
The Knicks, who won 47 games and advanced to the second round of the playoffs this season, will not extend the contract of GM Scott Perry, sources told ESPN, confirming multiple reports.
For more than a year, the SEC has been trying to figure out what to do with its schedule starting with the 2024 season when Texas and Oklahoma join to make it a 16-team league with no divisions.
Clayton Kershaw says he disagrees with the Los Angeles Dodgers’ decision to welcome an LGBTQIA+ group called the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence at the team’s annual Pride Night.
French Open debutant Peyton Stearns produced the biggest win of her career by defeating former champion Jelena Ostapenko to reach the third round at Roland Garros.
Pat McAfee is leaving FanDuel for ESPN, and details are now out on the agreement he’s reached to become a full-time media personality for the worldwide leader.
McAfee’s contract is worth $85 million over five years, a perceived pay cut from the four-year deal at FanDuel that was worth $120 million, according to Andrew Marchand of the New York Post.
ESPN declined comment when reached by Marchand, and McAfee skirted the Marchand report during a conversation as well.
“Interesting number,” McAfee told The Post.
The National Football League has a strength of schedule formula that’s simple to understand. Just take the opponents’ records from the previous season, add up the wins and losses and calculate a percentage for all 17 opponents. In fantasy football, rather than using team records, we use the number of PPR points allowed by defenses against a single position the previous season and rank the teams/players according to the average.
The numbers, admittedly, can be very close in many cases.
For example, the most favorable quarterback total (17.9) for this season is just 2.
