Lebron's Hairline Should Not Look Better Than Mine (and other lighter sports news you missed)

On the left: June 2014. On the right: September 2014.

Lebron's hairline migrated south for the summer as was quickly noted by everyone with a twitter account after photos rose from the reveal of his new shoes. Did he get hair plugs? Is it just the lighting? Does Rogaine have a new face of their product? Who knows. This wouldn't be a story if it weren't Lebron and James's hairline is another addition to the already long list of things to come back before D-Rose (to the Bulls, anyway). Meanwhile, I just pulled out five hairs at the same time... -sigh- the one thing I had above Lebron is now gone.

Last week was a rough week for fantasy football players as injuries struck everywhere and everyone...

Chiefs RB Jamaal Charles suffered a "high ankle sprain" which he practiced with on Thursday even though it's supposed to cost him four-to-six weeks.

Cardinals QB Carson Palmer will miss his second consecutive game with a nerve issue in his throwing shoulder, meaning the below-average Drew Stanton will start in his place on Sunday.

Rams QB Shaun Hill is a game-time decision for Sunday against Dallas but, I'd expect to see start #2 of Austin Davis.

The Bears and Adam Schefter irritated everyone with the report of "a 75% chance both Marshall & Jeffrey sit out Sunday night", only for both to play and Marshall to catch three touchdowns. I would ignore their "questionable" tags this weekend if I owned them in fantasy.

Jordan Cameron of Cleveland is a game-time decision as well and could be a major asset for Cleveland as they try to upset Baltimore. Look elsewhere in fantasy.

and wrapping up the injury report, here's a list of guys who are definitely OUT this weekend...

QB Robert Griffin III (Cuttable in all leagues besides keepers)
RB Mark Ingram (Hang onto him, Pierre Thomas & Khiry Robinson reps get small boosts)
RB Ryan Mathews (Donald Brown is a waiver wire gem this next month)
RB Knowshon Moreno (Lamar Miller isn't 100%. Try Damien Williams, ignore Daniel Thomas)
RB Ben Tate (Terrance West and Isaiah Crowell continue their domination)
WR Odell Beckham Jr. (Who cares at this point? He has to wait until next year to be fantasy relevant)
WR Marvin Jones (IF he's available in your league, scoop him up now as he'll be back soon and is a major sleeper after being Andy Dalton's favorite end-zone target not named A.J. Green last year)
WR Marqise Lee (Droppable in most league, wait until Bortles takes over. AKA: 2015)
TE Jordan Reed (Niles Paul is the name you're looking for here, don't cut Reed though.)

Baseball is nearing the finish line and that means St. Louis and Los Angeles of Anaheim (or something to that extent) are both in full-on win their divisions mode. They are being assisted by the disastrous Septembers of both the Milwaukee Brewers and the Oakland Athletics. (I'll call back to my preseason predictions once the playoffs start).

Gus Johnson is no longer FOX's lead soccer announcer. This is for the best because, everyone knows that this was a terrible idea since Johnson is the greatest football/basketball announcer in the history of America.

Team USA beat Team NobodyWatchedAnywaysBecauseItWasn'tSpain in the FIBA championship.

Oh, and Derek Jeter is still retiring so the Yankees will drag that out to distract fans from the fact that if they had an actual starting-caliber shortstop, they might've made the playoffs this year.

This past month has reminded me how overrated Derek Jeter is. Sorry, I'm too salty about the whole dating-every-hot-famous-lady-ever thing.
